Alright, so I'm almost done with the game, but the only major obstacle left is Hell's Precipe. This is the most annoying quest ever, and what makes it worse, I'm a warrior. What I mostly need are suggestions on what skills and equipment to bring, but any other tips would be helpful (I've already seen the guide, so don't redirect me there).

Dreadnought's insigs with 13 strength, And perhaps interrupts to knock out the flame imps

frozen armor+conjure frost+icy weapon (sword axe or hammer) = win

I H/H'd it 3-4 times for mapping, skill-capping, and end game weapons.

Ranger: BroadHeadArrow/pet = owns casters Lightning reflexes, dshot, res. anything.
Koss: whatever, I've used power attack scythe or cripslash (I usually tank b/c of super ranger armor and let Koss kill) you can switch to tank if you're warrior.
Tahlk: standard WoH healer
Morghan: Defensive anthem + spear attacks. Sometimes Zhed with fire. You brought winter, right?
Healer Hench
Protector Hench
Fighter Hench
Mage Hench

Replace Koss with yourself and ranger with mesmer interupt or ranger hero with BHA. I'd choose Ranger b/c of super ranger armor, defensive skills, and 9th person on your team (the pet) .

Main thing is to shut down the imps with BHA or other interupt. A few times there will be 3-4 imps together. You should be able to shutdown and kill one imp fast enough to live through the firestorm.
Don't kill more than one Ashen Hulk at a time b/c 2 Fists AND2 Hands will kill you. The Ashen Hulk don't hurt much-so they are lower priority

Pull...pull....pull.
Flag your heroes back, go stand on a corner, and pull baddies into you. They should ball up on you trying to come around the corner. Release the henchies and start killing. Should be fairly easy once you get the hang of it.

I'm sure there are efficient builds, but this one works well for nubs like me.

I finally beat Hell's Precipice, thanks for the help guys.

This mission OWNED me for a while before I figured out how to pull and not over aggro.

Isn't winter still bugged so it applies the cold damage after actually calculating the damage (instead of before like it should)?

gerlin · Aug 23, 2008, 04:32 PM // 16:32

Don't know about winter. But with my warrior it was a walk in the park with godmode warrior, healers boon monk, ZB monk, koss /R with winter, then random henchies. Second time was with sabway, you never have trouble with sabway

This mission is easier then RoF imo.

Update - Thursday May 1

* Fixed a bug with skills that convert damage from one type to another, such as Stone Striker and Greater Conflagration. The converted damage was working incorrectly with armor bonuses and penalties.

Can assume that that update included Winter.

Being a Warrior is easier even, for me at least. They key for this mission is only one: PATIENT.

Especially on that lava pool near the portals. Coupled if you are getting a bonus. Pull one by one, and remember this target priority: Spark-->Burning Titan(biggest dude)--> Hand and Fist--->Necro Titan.

As well as the order, Spark die = die, Burning Die = Necro, Necro die => Hand AND Fist, Hand and Fist die = die.

Have access to heroes? if not then, get a balance henchies and get Winter on your last slot instead of Rez sig (if your skill-set is that packed). If you do have access to heroes, it's gonna be easier, lot more possibility to bring, BUT I think shouldn't needed, just grab the key for this mission, which is being patient and you should do fine.

Gl!
