Whats best group to beat it?
All my groups failed because those guys are too strong, and come back to life ever so often. Is there a certain group type you need? I've tried 2 monk, 2 ele, 2 war, nec, and mes.

If you a referring to Hell's Precipice, there is no "best" group needed to succeed. I've done it with 2 humans and the balance being hench - a smart, balanced group of all humans is more than sufficient.
That being said, there are a few things worth keeping in mind:
1. always kill in this order: sparks, fists and hands, hulks, titans. Minimizes the swarming effect.
2. Rangers dropping spirit of winter is often an asset.
3. pull small groups, and focus fire (true on any mission)

1. my order has been: sparks, titans, fists and hands, hulks

this is in order of dmg dealers, which sparks being the fastest that'll spike you. titans do more dmg than hulks. fists and hands dont appear until you kill the hulks anyways, so most of the time you can leave the stray hulks alone and focus on the others first.

2. agreed
3. agreed

with that said, i havent beaten it with a PUG only with henchies. i've found it easier that way.

sleazeh speaks the truth, man. listen to him.

Its even ABSOLUTELY doable with henchies, if you stick to his rules.

and if you got a player monk:
bring mend ailment against the burning
and if you can spare the energy bring holy damage or any other way to pierce right through their armor.
cold damage helps too.

and most important: most of the time you DIE when you fight more than one group. unless you are very skilled and work together as a team.
but then you shouldnt be fighting two groups in the first place.

good luck.

Best group if you're a monk in my opinion is a henchy group

I finished it with War, War, E, N, + 2 hench monks

And as for lvl 30 the lich is very easy I have to say

Winter-nuking is by far the easiest way to do this mission.

Have a ranger bring Winter and maintain it in battle, then have two or three ele's nuke everything to hell. 2 EZ.
