Completed with no problems, thank you all for your help!

You could always check the wiki for tips and hints on what to look out for when vanquishing.

Apart from that, Crystal Overlook is relatively easy, it's getting to it that might be a problem, if you exit from Ruins of Morah, you'll have to deal with a Paragon boss and his group which usually includes another paragon and a monk. Which means repeated ressing unless you can keep all 3 of them down constantly.

Shattered Ravines is pretty easy as well. If you've vanquished all the other parts of The Desolation, these last two areas will be a cakewalk.

Shattered Ravines is just a quick jaunt in the worms.

Crystal Overlook is also mostly worm-able. The most dangerous foes you have to confront outside of the worms are the djinn in the northeast and northwest corners.

Remember that you can get to the Arid Sea from the Overlook, so consider doing a Tyrian vanq afterward. You are able to take 8 instead of 6 so you can make a romp of it!

Thank you all for your sound advice, your input is greatly appreciated. And I guess I will run the standard discord way build. If there is another build that is more effective in either of those areas don't be afraid to share.

Will probably start this tomorrow around 10-11am eastern time if anyone would like to join me.

When i did the desolation me and my friend just ran sabway x2 and it worked like a charm. However i just got into discordway and tbh i think it might work better. Being able to take down the most dangerous foes quickly is great

It should work. I haven't done Crystal Overlook yet, but did Shattered Ravines on Monday with Sabway heroes and the usual assortment of henchies. There are two rocky areas, one NW and one SE, that the team handled just fine. The rest was wurm work, and dead easy.
