If many of you do not know what it was Ill try to recap it as simple as possible. What happened during the nightfall preview event was the ability to control henchmen via flag points. A trick used was to cast recall on a henchmen and move him into a zone, the henchmen would however not rezone and go pass the zone point and when you closed off the enchant you could bypass the zone without going in enabling you to enter areas you normally could not. However since nightfall everytime you enter a zone your henchmen reappear beside you (in nightfall not sure about the other campaigns).

Anywhooo to go back to what I was saying, has anyone tried to take on Grand Court of Sebelkeh Mission with heros and henchies only to fail miserably? Or if you succeed take a long time? Well this is where the fun begins! First you have to have an Assassin as either your first or second profession and have recall. When you start the mission <B>Do not leave the teleportation ring you are standing on</b> cast recall on a hero/henchmen and order/flag your hench/hero to the center of the map, Then close recall and you teleport next to him. Now your wondering what does this do? Ill tell you.

First off the timer didnt start, so that means the Margonites don't rush, and that means you can attack them without worrying about being swarmed to death! You can easily wipe them out and cap the rifts with little to no difficulty at all! Though some do spawn, they dont rush towards the middle and are easily killed. Then you do that for each rift and your done! However the Diabolical Blasphemies still appear, and they do try to cap! Luckily I rememberd to try to take a screen shot of him capping, however I didnt attack him and he didnt succeed, and I sent my henchmen to take over the last rift easily. After that they killed the Blasphemy and I rushed back to the teleport ring for it to start the timer and I instantly finsihed.

However this didnt get me masters and at the end it told me I finsihed the Mission in 9 minutes and 6 seconds. But that doesnt mean you cant get masters! Just means you have to be more efficient at it!

Anywho any feedback on this or more screenies would be nice!

I like your style. I managed this first time but only standard - I must try this tonight before ANerf find a way of stopping it!

the eredon glitch was even possible the last months, even after/before the event. Just take henchies, stand as close to the portal as possible, and recall on the henchie the furthest in the portal :P

nice grnad court glitch though

TechnoSword · Nov 07, 2006, 03:05 PM // 15:05

Thanks, it was frustrating doing it with only heros/henchies because they could never seem to stop the blasphemies and help me cap rifts without letting the alter be taken. But now thanks to this I can easily do so without being worried about getting capped! Anyone trying to look for an easy masters should do it soon before this gets nerfed!

Former Ruling · Nov 07, 2006, 04:35 PM // 16:35

Its faster and easier to just PWN the mission with decent hero builds. People get overrun because they dont kill stuff fast enough (if you can kill the margonites at the rifts before the Blas caps the center...your fine).

I almost got masters (off by like 2 secs) first try with henchies and heros..Dont see why people have problems with it >_<

Shrouded Waffle · Nov 08, 2006, 01:35 AM // 01:35

Wow, this worked GREAT! I just got 4:59 on my second try, thanks man!

I'd suggest going this route for masters unless you find one of those Lightbringer groups.

Feh. I had my heroes/henchies capture the rift to the left of the starting circle while I remained in the circle. Easy as hell with the right team and skills. No micromanagement of hero skills involved at all, I only had to place the team flag and sit back. Then I joined them to storm the rift to the right. The whole thing was wrapped up in just over 4 minutes.

Juicey Shake · Nov 08, 2006, 04:03 AM // 04:03

thnx even tho I was lvl 5 lightbringer by the time i got to this mission this made it easy to do with heroes.

tyty.

According to wiki, the "Eradon Terrace" glitch is dead. ArenaNet was quick on that.

But it should still work for the mission.

TechnoSword · Nov 08, 2006, 04:51 AM // 04:51

yes i know its dead, i ment it lives on in a new form. and by new form i mean this mission which uses the same procedure you would use for the eredon exploit. but i guess people didnt get it....

CyberMesh0 · Nov 08, 2006, 04:57 AM // 04:57

That is correct, the mission exploit still works. Just did it myself

TechnoSword · Nov 16, 2006, 01:31 AM // 01:31

bump it back up since someone wanted to see this =)

Gilibran · Nov 16, 2006, 01:53 AM // 01:53

wish i read this sooner, what i did was flag koss and Dunkoro at the central shrine to guard and did the rest with hench. got me masters after 3 tries wish i had come up with this lol gonna try it anyways lol

Dr Imperial · Nov 16, 2006, 02:42 AM // 02:42

haha that glitch is awesome! clever thinking!!

Ole Man Bourbon · Nov 16, 2006, 05:43 AM // 05:43

I used heroes/hench and split them so that one group defended altar while other took portal. Didn't get masters but was pretty close I believe. The trick is to get everyone to stay between the altar and 1 portal without running off (i'm looking at you, Zhed).

It does, a very generous guy decided to show off how he can run it easy so long as I stood on the portal.

Kind of a rude guy, but he's shutting down the scammer market where people charge 8-20k to run this. The badass with a heart of gold.

TechnoSword · Nov 16, 2006, 07:25 AM // 07:25

Wait am I a bad guy? I thought this was a good thing! =/

also if your point that quote out ill just say this, I dont mean the actual eredon terrace glitch I mean that this mission can be done using the same technique used for the eredon glitch.

darkdawn · Nov 16, 2006, 11:04 AM // 11:04

meh.. I did it master withoud it.
I'm a dervish with avatar of balthy
I had koss, Goren and Talkhora.
2 Healer hench, The motivation hench and the dervish hench.

In the beggining i rush the middle and kill everything (isint too hard) then i stay in the middle to kill blashemy and sent all hero/hench to a portal, then another and finally the last one. When i killed the blasphemy i rushed to a portal to help my hero/hench a bit since the blasphemy dont spawn at a fast rate.

I've also done with a party but it only got expert.
