I'm doing the Titan quests with my heroes right now. The defend ascalon quest was pretty easy, Mantra of Flame ftw, but in defend kryta there are water titans who drop maelstrom, and if any of them *ever* gets off a single maelstrom there's at least one hero dead.
The problem is that although monsters will immediately get out of the Area of Effect of maelstrom, heros wont - there is a bug in how the AI treats the AoE of maelstrom. Heros will not even stand and tough it out - they simply walk back and forth inside the AoE until they die.
I've tried flagging them out of the maelstrom, but that takes a few seconds and generally they're dead before they get out of the AoE.
So how do you guys deal with Maelstrom + heros?
At present I've made all my heros */Me and given them at least one interrupt + mantra of frost, and I always target water titans first - but it sucks to have to design the whole team and the tactics around one single enemy skill just because the AI is broken.
So, any pointers are welcome.
How deal with Maelstrom?

If you do manage to get one or more caught in a maelstrom, flag them out of it. They'll take some damage but at least their "Alesia from 2 years ago" brain has to respond to the flag and they'll move. (Who remembers super tank? I sure do and some heroes are seriously pushing it ....koss you bastard!)
