Ah....WOW.
I got wiped trying to do it.
I am an assassin and I wanted some advice on what I should use.
Perma Shadowform?

Also, if finding a groups so hard then why did I make a good pug. We were about to win then everyone left for no reason?

Viper, you can hero & hench it. Or do it together with a friend.

1.) I recommend a SS Necro for your team: Spiteful Spirit, Enfeebling Blood as core skills. Barbs is useful, too, as the heroes place it very reliable on your target. Mark of Pain would be great, but hero henchmen often do not call it. A human SS necro would be a great asset in there.

2.) One char with frozen soil:
To prevent the stone summit from rezzing.

Ideally you take monk and defensive heroes with you and let a friend lead the attack while you focus on assassinating the summit healers (priest/defender) and summoners (annoying necros). If you take a MM along, make sure you have Verata's Gaze to steal back the minions.

Besides that, you had a winning group and all people left for no good reason? I bet there was a pretty good reason for people to leave, come on. :>

selvetarm,thommis,rand => hero hench... try using SAB'S heroway build
forgewight => aske for a tank and a rit spammer hero wud be much of a help
duncan => use sab's build again + 1 real nec to finish off duncan + u shud bring swap

u can play crit barrage (dont 4get to take frozen soil btw)
or u can play ursan

another thing: if ur playing this dungeon for the 1st time, try to play with another char (ie nuker or monk) to get familiar with it

hf and gl

While moslty focused on killing Duncan, it does have some strategies for the other 4 guys: http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10204919

If you have to PuG I would highly recommend trying to find an Ursanway group. With this you're damage output is so great you don't have to worry about the rezzing-they'll just keep on dying lol.

It becomes easier by a factor of 10 once you bring frozen soil and work out an effective method for placing the spirit and taking initial aggro. If you have decent hero builds and play with care, you shouldn't have any trouble at all henching any of these.

Practise with spots to take initial aggro well. Don't use any superior runes for more health. If you go with H+H using Ursan yourself seems best for an assassin. Park the heroes just out of where you want to tank, use Earth, 2 Monks and maybe even the Fire henchies, use SF or SH eles yourself.

The henchy monk builds are actually quite decent for tanking in this way and I suspect Mhenlo heals even better now that he's been given WoH. I used this method for the first 3 bosses and went with a physical build for the last-before-Duncan boss.

Hope this helps.
