I've been trying and trying to get Masters on Grand Court of Sehbelkeh, but I can't seem to do it, especially now that most players don't bother with lightbringer titles. Any advice?

Don't kill the blasphemy except once every minute. Flag your heroes to cap cleared portals, rinse repeat. Quite simple, LB title helps.

Step 1: Rush to the center and kill all waves of incoming Margo in a hurry. Prioritize your targets, focus fire, a MM helps a lot.

Step 2: Ignore the incoming Bla and rush one of the portals, kill everything and capture it. You should be able to do this before the Bla captures the middle.

Step 3: Kill the Bla. Remove that darned hex with revealed hex and kill the thingies he spawns.

Step 4: Repeat Steps 2 and 3 twice.

LB gaze helps loads, kills the glowy balls almost instantly. Do it immediately after they spawn, while they are all still adjacent to each other.

Are we talking NM or HM? I'll assume it's HM, since HM tactics should also work for NM. I brought Savannah Heat + Inspired Hex heroes with me.

The hardest bit (or the only hard bit) of Grand Court is to survive the first wave in the centre. Wait till all the groups get to the centre and kill them with AOE spells. Make sure you have enough heroes and henchies stand near the centre shrine while you're doing that. Also watch your heroes so they don't accidentally aggro the mobs at the capture points.

Everything else is pretty much what Chthon says. The main point is to ignore the Blasphemy as he's alone and takes a long while to capture the centre shrine. Don't go for him until you finish capping a portal. Recap centre shrine till it's full after or while you kill the Blasphemy and the balls and go for second portal. Rinse and repeat, blah blah.

Sometimes you may accidentally kill a Blasphemy with all the AOE spells while capping. Don't panic. Remember you get to use your rez sig again after you capture the portal.

I can't kill the "glowy balls" instantly with LB gaze in HM (well, I'm only LB5), but as long as you have hex removal, they shouldn't be of much threat.

Edit: Oh also, capture while you kill. Just make sure you stay out of Torment Claws' range.

Basically what Vicke said though you can't one-shot the energy things (and I'm req8 LB) with Gaze but they're still jokes with Inspired Hex. The hardest part is survivng the initiall siege but once you have some bodies then it's all downhill from there. Rememer that you don't actually have to cap the torment spawns, just clear out all the guys there

I H/H it and got master. Bring SF ele hero with interrupt skill and have him locked target at the tormented claw. That will takes care of it. Bring 2 healer at least to cover health, just another hench will do since Tahlk already in the mission. High DPS damage dealer is required if you want the master reward. Bring Zenmai if u have her.

Actually timing is the key. Its like this: defend center-->close rift-->defend center-->close rift-->defend center-->close rift

If PUGs are more organised, that will make it easier, with the lightbringer gaze skill. But u know PUG, some people think they can just solo the claw.

A friend and I have tried several times to do this mission. every time we capture a rift and try to move on to the next one or go back to the center, more Margonites appear there and we have to do it again. the text comes up saying we have captured it. am i just misunderstanding something here or are we doing something wrong? any help would be appreciated...even if i do feel like a noob once you tell me lol. Thanks!
