Can someone give me advice on how to beat the last part, where there is a boss (sometimes a jade, sometimes mursaat) I can't get past it, i always die.

In a nutshell... Have a warrior hold off the boss while the
rest of the group clears everything else out of the keep.
There WILL be a long lull where the whole group can focus
everything they have on it.

If you're running it alone with henchmen, take out the small stuff first or they will peck you to death. And keep your eyes on the king -- he tends to wander off and get himself killed, especially towards the end, so watch his back.

The easiest we ever found it, was to have 2 monks on the firey things, using heal party!!!

They can also heal people below them as they are fighting at the gates so it doesn't matter that they are on a different level.

Worked well, no one died, did it first time. Was the easiest it's ever been

This way is what I have found to be the easiest (if you are not doing bonus):

Have a warrior grab the torch but not light the beacons. The whole party camps the king with the warrior in the front. The monks focus healing on the warrior who runs and grabs aggro as enemies approach. If good aggro management is done, then all of the enemies stay focused on the warrior giving the other team members enough time to pick them off one by one.

This works very well even if perfected armor and the monk boss show up!

This method may not be available for much longer. I would suggest not getting used to this method of play.

Would i be able to kill the boss before he gets to me? Like with the cannon thing.

Blaster The Warrior · Apr 25, 2006, 11:21 AM // 11:21

i did it with a minion master with well of power and bone fiends and bone horrors and we just stayed at king and 2 rangers at the catapults and trapping on the bridges ( the mission never was that easy :P)

You are right. With factions coming out and the adjustment for Ritualist Urn.....all of these methods are out the window i.e. book/keg/gear etc. As of now, it is, the easiest method.

Failing that, light the beacons and camp the king. The additional jades that come in because of the bonus will wipe out the first two waves of enemies that come into the fort.

Then the rest of the party camps the king using the lull to fire off some catapults. Warriors engage at the entrance to the fort (provided enemies are coming from one direction) or on the stairs.

Trappers are awesome. Have them trap the TOP of the bridges over the doorways. Traps have no height requirement - so they'll trigger if they walk UNDER the traps.

This Slows them, and gives them conditions, making it lots easier to pick them off as they come in. Even kills most of the mantle.

Make sure the warriors know this, because they like to fight them before they can hit the trps <_<

Other than that, you got your ways
