When I did this with heroes, I had to do Aurora Glade twice once for bonus, once for mission.

For the mission, at the attunement part, I ran left, let the Mantle cap first, let them get out of agro range, then recapped and planted my heroes there (with snares). Capped the other 2 pedestals and returned to recap that pedestal to complete the process. Should have time to complete that last cap before they take another pedestal.

For the bonus run I just played the mission normally. When I got to the attunement part, I flaged my heroes right, and ran a crystal to the left. Let the Mantle cap it first, let them get out of agro range, recapped it, then cut across the middle to join my heroes. Had enough time to run down the side and kill the demagogue before they completed the attunement process.


I think its possible to do both in one attempt if you use something like a spirit spammer and camp out at the top pedestal, killing the waves one at a time. Didn't think of that until after I'd completed it, but it seems like a good strategy.

Another time I did this mission with guildies and we sent our ele to run the crystals. While the rest of the group camps the first pedestal on the left and kill the enemies as they run out in waves. Eventually all the mobs will be destroyed and the Demegaouge will be open. This method however was a pain on our monks, they occasionally had to run and heal the runner ele.

As difficult as this mission is if you're on your own, as easy it will be if you have only two people: Player A brings a couple of running skills and just keeps capping Altars quick enough so that the mantle don't win (flagging his heroes out of the way, so they don't accidentally aggro something). Meanwhile Player B sneaks around the back (taking his Heroes with him) to do the bonus. If you stick to the wall to the right, you can slip past all the White Mantle forces and easily kill the Demagogue. Now all you have to do is to cap the remaining altars quicker than the Mantle. Player B should head back and help running crystals for that. No-one will ever have to aggro any Mantle guys during all this (except for the Demagogue himself). Actually you should avoid doing so at all costs, because once you aggro them, they will come in hordes.

there is an even easier trick. before u open last vine gate, locate pig on other side and use nec trav trick.

Yes, you can do that also, but you will only complete bonus if you do transversal trick. Also the pig may or may not spawn on the other side of the gate.

Hold the shrine near your start, cap alternatively left and right with one player (a precaution against 2 patrols coming to the same place mid-fight). As mantle patrols come out one by one to recap, kill them at your leisure. Flag all hench/heroes or put other players in appropriate position to intercept.

When they're all dead, kill the demagogue.

i just did this to explore alone on my warrior.
my solution is simple.
as soon as u get to the henge place run a crystal to the closest one.
then take another and run it to the left one (looking at the whole place from the view u came from)(if the bad guys didnt put the thing in yet on the left one let them do it and put urs in right after)
once u put in on left flag ur heros on that spot. u let them fight everything that comes at them.
but you keep runing crystals to the left(the left is the bad guys' priority for some reason, they will keep going to that one if u keep it blue)
sooner or later the bad guys all die off and ur free to roam as much as u want.(if u put ur crystal in the left right after they do you have quite some time to help out ur heroes in the fight [recomended] kill like 1 or 2 guys and head out for another crystal)

i did it having only one runing skill (sprint)
dunkoro healing monk, talkora healing monk, zhed fire ele, and 2 henchies really doesnt matter which ones, they suck balls.
