I really need help completing my master dungeon guide in HM. I prefer H/H because the people I usually get from my guild aren't as skilled as a would like them to be. Henchmen are predictable and I know what they are going to do in a certain situation so I like them. I will get some guildies if needed though.

With that out of the way, I need help with the last four dungeons in my book. I (surprisingly) managed to H/H the other 14 in HM. I need to do

-Raven's Point
-Frostmaw's Burrows
-Catacombs of Kathandrax
-Vloxen Excavations

I attemped Raven's earlier today. It all went smoothly until the last level. All my henchies had a 10% Morale Boost, but when that last wave came, we were swarmed. I didn't know that the destroyers would come from both sides so we were sorrounded. To top it all off, they camped the rez shrine so we had 60% DP in no time.

I was running the following build.

Me
[Wounding Strike][Chilling Victory][Lyssa's Assualt][Asura Scan][Aura of Holy Might][Dwarven Stability][Lightning Reflexes][Resurrection Signet]

Xandra
[Ray of Judgement][Smite Hex][Smite Condition][Splinter Weapon][Ancestor's Rage][Strength Of Honor][Castigation Signet][Flesh of my Flesh]

Talkora
[Ray of Judgement][Smite Hex][Smite Condition][Reversal of Damage][Protective Spirit][Aegis][Castigation Signet][Resurrection Chant]

Livia
[Animate Bone Minions][Animate Flesh Golem][Blood of the Master][Death Nova][Infuse Conditon][Foul Feast][Dwaynas Sorrow][Signet of Lost Souls]

Herta
Lo Sha
Mhenlo
Lina

Can you give me any tips on the four dungeons I have listed and whether I should get humans or not?

I'm also going through the dungeons and H/H'd hard mode Catacombs last week. I use the same henchies everywhere in EoTN; earth, fire (probably not optimal everywhere, but has great damage output and the meteor shower knockdown is great for dealing with multiple-healer groups anywhere), prot, heal, and then have a modified sabway (I have my minion bomber setup with smiting). If you take Pain Inverter, the boss of catacombs is quite easy. I was expecting it to be a long painful slog, but I died only once on him.

I've only recently just started to use pain inverter, and it's a very cheesy way of taking out HM dungeon bosses, as none of them ever regenerate health. Then again, SY! and brawling headbutt are pretty cheesy as well.

Vloxen is EASILY the hardest of what you have left.

All doable with H/H.
Ditch Lo Sha and add Zho.
Ditch Ancestors Rage and add Warmongers Weapon.
Add another RoJ
or
Replace Flesh Golem with Jagged Bones or Discord.
or Ditch a RoJ and add another Discord MM (leave off BotM of that build if you do this)

I would recommend 3x RoJ for Vloxen...you can easily out damage the heals that way(with consets). Frozen Soil is a must if you don't go this route

Use Consets.

Feel free to look me up in game. I don't really enjoy Catacombs, but I would be happy to go with you on the others.

I've done every dungeon multiple times and know my way, and how to do them.

I find thru experience, best EoTn Henchmen are the two monks, Herta, and Zho.

Very true. Herta is especially good. So good in fact, that even an identically equipped Hero does not perform as well as she does.
