I haven't tryed yet, need to get my Guard and hunter to 65... my minstrel is already there along with my RK, but the Rks on the guard account lol. I'll let you guys know, the hard part would be healing through the first part until the flame guy is dead. spamming aggro on Guard is easy... but the champ DPS would come in handy hmmmm just thinking out loud....

My kinship has taken it down with a mix of groups, RK Minstrel champ being easy mode in hard mode lol.

I just got my RKs to 65 a couple nights ago, and decided to head into SH to see how difficult it would be with all squishies (under-geared and under-traited).

That crawling flame is a PITA. I got wiped the first time trying to reposition and self-heal through it. For the second attempt, I dropped sigils and backed off to let them get aggro. It was working, so I tried to open up with a little DPS...BLAM! Three devastates on Ceaseless Argument and I instantly got the mob's attention. This time, I just tried to stand toe-to-toe and see how I'd do. I got the boss down to 20k before his crawling flame got me.

I'm sure that once I am better geared/traited, I will do much better but I'd like to find a sound strategy for taking that instance down (easy mode) with three RKs. I'm certain other classes could tear that place up (three Captains or Loremasters with their pets would probably be fun).

Well, I'm still severely under geared (no Moria/BG/DN/Loth armor--just quest and rep stuff), have found no good damage weapons yet, and only have my virtues at 6s and 7s. Stll, I decided to give SH another try.

After two wipes, I finally mananged to get the fire boss down. I basically resorted to a tactic of:

1.) Drop sigils
2.) Place fire skills on mob while he inducts crawling flame (only interruptible by FM)
3.) Run around, soaking hits and passing by sigils until they disappear
4.) Use corruption removal as necessary to get morale HoT
5.) Rinse and repeat

The second boss was a total cake walk. Having the ability to interrupt all of her inductions was nice. Any time the bats did get summoned, one press of an AoE frost skill and they were finished.

The last boss...well...he's a different story. I really need to figure out a strategy for him. Short of having one of my guys go all healing while the other two do DPS, I don't see how I can beat him. His stun kick instantly takes one guy out long enough for the troll to slaughter him (even with three sigils on the ground).

Does anyone else have any thoughts on strategies for boxing SH with all RKs?
