Anyone have any tips for this? I can get through about 3-5 waves before the team starts falling apart. I am using the 3 Necrobuild, Alesia, and Durham. Thanks for your help

We did the mission yesterday, we used the following team setup:
- a bonder for dorian
- a heal monk
- two fire elementalists for damage
- a ritu tank that blocked the stair
- master as SS

We stayed on the green patch to the right side of the stairs. Get rid of the monks first.

Its a fairly easy heroe/ henchable mission.

I played a Ranger with(barage, judge's insight, savage shot, sloth hunter shot and distracting shot, troll ungent , running skill of your choice., as for heroes, i took taakora as a restore conditions monk. dunkoro as a LOD monk, and also ogden (Gwen monk) as a full smiter monk, dervish( if hero) avatar of baltazar and heart of fury(holy dmg), your dealing with undead here, holy dmg/smiting rocks here, when you get ti dorian stay in side circle of mending as much as possible, and let the undead come to you, and take them down fast, was the last wave comes , take them down, the go around the compund and clear the last small groups around dorians compound,m was that is clear, before taaking the bonus, go clear the bonus path, to get the vase, and also clear the path to the pedestal up the mountain were you take the vase to, once all areas are clear just simplt go get the vase and walk up the mountaind to mcollect your bonus reward and then complete the mission.

Piece of cake.

Using Smiting Monks or Dervishes with Avatar of Balthazar or Heart of Holy Flame make this mission easy enough.

I'm necro (SS) myself, used 2 other hero necro's (healer and mm) and Gwen as interrupter. From the hench i took Alesia and a warrior. When you come at the point the priest gets attacked just rush to him and stay in the circle. I always let them come to me. Only the part with the wave with the boss in it was a bit difficult. This was because there were still 3 monks alive when he arrived but after hunting the monks down it was very easy.

I did some days ago with the 3 necros, Alesia and Thom.

I'm R/D, with Heart of the Holy Flame, BHA, volley, Ebon Vanguard Assassin support. I think that if you're warrior, you can go W/D with triple chop for holy area damage. Light of Deldrimor can be useful too.

With BHA and Assassin I nullified monks and other casters, while doubling damage because of HotHF. The 3 necros did their dirty job perfectly.

Tip for bonus: when the last wave has been defeated, before leaving Dorian alone, CLEAR CAREFULLY the surrounding area from any undead. There are some pop-ups and there's a circle area, a sort of small lake, where the mobs come from, which is still populated even after the last wave.
Go there and kill everything, otherwise eventually they'll move and attack Dorian while you're running to the bonus location

I ran SS(me), N/Rt (resto hero), W/Mo with Mend Touch for the blind (jora), and I think Vekk Bsurge w/Ward of Stability to counter Earthquake. Forget which hench I brought but stay with Dorian for a while after the waves end and for some reason some more come to kill him, after that then go do the bonus(if your doing bonus).
Ward of Stability > Earthquake and of course target the monks first.
Just an option, the mass AoE kd to all the hench/hero who can't prekite was my only real obstacle.

2 hero axe warriors with steady stance, drunken blow, desp. blow, watch yourself
1 SS / order nec (the non elite order)
1 smiter hero with Strength of Honor, Judge's Insight, 3 damage signets

it hit them hard, i must say...

This mission was pretty easy

my team setup as follows

2 SF eles (me and vekk, P drain on vekk)
1 SoJ signet Smiter (used all the smite sigs + mantra of inscriptions + smite condition + smite hex + power drains/leech sig)
1 HB / HP Monk Tahlkora ( p drain + leech sig)
1 Orrion
1 Alesia

I would really drop Durham for another henchmen... he's rather useless... id go with Claude for BR's, Orrion for AoE, or Little Thom for physical pressure (however with all the Blinding flashes... Id go full caster party for this mish).

After picking up the melandru offering just high tail it all the way to dorian... ignore the small grps you meet if you can after the offering and on the way to temple of tolerance. Dorian can survive up until you arrive (atleast for me he did).

No tricks during the defending part. Just stay in the well of mending with dorian and defeat them as they come. Since my party was all casters, the blinding really didnt do much as it would to a warrior/derv/sin so i guess alot of the hard part was not an issue for me.

I think a key part of my success was have Power Drains and Leech sigs on all the heroes to interrupt the Undead Sorcerors' Earthquake (real party killer if none of them are interrupted/killed before it does off).

After you defeat the waves and dorian goes on with his dialogue, I would kill all the surrounding grps of undead around the temple because sometimes there is a delayed grp of undead that spawn and wipes dorian while your party is on way to do mish / delivering the bonus to shrine.

GL to you.

It would help if we knew what your primary was. I just did this one in HM using a Warrior primary with a Dslash bar, Sabway heroes, Alesia and Orion as henchies. The only hard part was getting to Dorian in time, once Alesia got in range the fight was rather easy, especially compared to some EotN mobs.

The 3 necro build isn't ideal for undead, smiters are great. N/Mo with smiting might be fun But I'm sure normal monks are fine too.

I think I had Fall Back thrown on one fo my heroes to get to Dorian in time, once there I thought the undead waves came so slowly that it wasn't too hard. Can't remember if I turtled in the mending ward or now, but I'm sure that can help.

I did this one easily yesterday on my Paragon.

I took two of the three necros (Sabs). The MM and the N/Rit Healer. Also brought a AoB Dervish.

The only tweak I made to the necros was (using a few extra points in smiting), I gave the MM Judges Insight, so I could get the holy bonus. He was rotating this between the warrior hench and me.

Think before you flame.

Unless, of course, you have some new-fangled way of changing one's primary profession...

I'm trying to remember how I beat this. I do know that I was using my assassin and that I was holding the bonus item at the time so I wasn't fighting. Pretty sure I had an MM (sabs), Sousuke (Savannah Heat Nuker), Tahlkora (either SoR Port) or Ogden (WoH Hybrid), Alesia and Claude. Dorian kept himself alive. I remember mostly that I was chatting with a guild mate and not really paying attention to the fight, but the AI managed it by themselves.

Did it with H+H; used a barrage+JI on myself, brought 2 ranger henchmen with JI+Barrage, and a monk smiter hero, with Alesia and a caster I think.

That much holy damage just reamed it.
