Isn't a Diversion/WW spammer mesmers really helpfull in that group?
As far as we can tell, the Lich (not the Undead Lich in Hell's) takes exactly 0 damage from all sources, which is why we had to go lifesteal/degen. Diversion might have helped though.

When he was over half health, my shadow strike would show "-0 -50". The damage was 0, but the life steal worked.
I didn't take my screenshot of the dead lich, but i did find Savio's popularity upon our return to town to be rather amusing. The guy just can't go out in public without being recognized anymore.

Actually, he dropped Mending so he could use Succor on himself. |

no mending?
what kinda build is that
Well, I heard he saw Bloodlight Eyes in Observer Mode, had a vision of light from God, and now also uses a sundering Rhino Hammer.
Nice one [Rare], to find this little trick.

The Lich is by far the hardest monster in the game.
We hit him with:
Life Transfer x2
Life Siphon x2
Conjure Phantasm
Bleeding
Poison
Disease
Weakness
Vamp Gaze x3 (but without Awaken, because he was using Strip Enchantment)
Shadow Strike x2
Plus whatever Savio and X were doing up close..??
I don't think he ever actually degened, we just managed to stop his natural regen of +8 billion. He has enough hit points to eat Glint for lunch and then some.
We'd hit him with VG x3 and his health bar would move like 1 pixel. Oh for the love of God...
He uses Strip Enchantment and Unholy Feast, but X was often able to Disrupt those.
Oh, and he hits for ~120 (seriously) with his Staff, the Staff of Orr.

I was mainly using Vamp Gaze and Barbed Signet, since Shadow Strike isn't worth it if the extra shadow damage doesn't hit. Vamp Gaze and Barbed Signet were each stealing 63, while Shadow Strike only stole 55. I'd throw up Life Siphon/Transfer when I had the energy, but it seems like spamming Gaze/Barbed did more damage in the long run.
I think a three necro team with either Life Transfer or Virulence, Blood Is Power, and Grenth's Balance for their elites would probably work better. Life Transfer/Virulence to help counter his regen, Blood Is Power to keep people's energy up in the absence of Soul Reaping, and Grenth's Balance to really put the whammy down--provided it works.
With a Diversion mesmer we'd be able to keep Awaken the Blood and Blood Is Power on us as well, since it wouldn't be getting stripped constantly. The mesmer could also stack some degen with Conjure Phantasm and the like.
