Hello, dudes!
I've been trying to roll through Tomb of the Primeval Kings with only Heroes and Henchmen on Hard Mode with my Elementalis, but so far I fail miserably.

I manged to do it with the Spiritway Build, only swapped the one Ritualist Hero with an Infuse Bonder Elementalist Hero and me playing as a Ritualist spammer (although I was an Elementalist - I know, it is strange, but it seems that I am far from mastering the ER bonding- any tutorial and/or advice would be greatly appreciated).
Is there any build to overcome that problem?
Thanks in advance!

Honestly, when it comes to H/H, you're better off running the spiritway yourself (or any offensive build) than E/Mo healer. Playing healer for H/H teams is hard because you aren't around to direct the offense where it needs to go. If you want the end greens it's good to run spirits anyway, you can flag your heroes away at the darknesses and solo them for all the greens.

I wouldn't run an E/Mo healer hero in Tombs, but I do suggest a non-enchant Assassins Promise build as a player.

Will interrupt eles and remove enchantments from monks. This applies to secondary professions.

ToPK is one of the most annoying areas around to H/H, mainly because of the terrible henchmen, but also because you can't afford to wipe at all.

There's no real point in running the ER Infuse hero. It's not just because of Fingers of Chaos, there's also a big lack of usable heroes. You're pretty much forced to use both Monk henchmen, when the ER Infuse is a third healer. If you want to use an ER Infuser anyway, I'd suggest you play one yourself. Don't run Rit spammer yourself. Primary Ritualists do it better.

You CAN clear ToPK with spiritway, but you should be careful with flagging because of the consequences of wiping, and because of Cry of Frustration. It's easy to lose concentration since the mobs aren't exactly hard to kill, but if you make a mistake you might easily have to start again from the beginning. For the same reason, I'd also advise carrying a Res scroll. There's not much more to be said, good luck.

Playing an ER ele in ToPK can be fun due to the difficulty (tons of strips, interrupts, and kd). All the weaknesses of ER in one area.

I wouldn't recommend using ER yourself with H/H since it will require extra flagging. Definitely beatable if you have the patience to flag heroes a lot, pull foes, and avoid all the ER hate.

The PVX build for ER is fine. I managed to get most of the shit removed a while ago: http://www.gwpvx.com/Build:E/Mo_ER_Infuse_Bonder

Don't use an ER hero here, they will fail so fast. Be aware of what happens to E/ and Mo/ classes when being attacked by those Grasping; Interrupt on hit and enchant strip.
