Vloxen Excavations HM

Hi there.
My friends and I have been battling with this hard mode dungeon for ages and it seems to be almost impossible. Any tips would be welcome
I would really like to complete all the dungeons in HM

Thanks

Have 2 necroes with the skills that lets them control all hostile minions, sabs rit healer, sabs ss, 2 monks, and 2 damage dealers. Aggro wisely and bring something for dp halfway through.

Yeah this was one of the few hm I couldn't hero/hench. Get guildies, bring consumables, and be prepared for a few wipes.

I H+H'd it in HM, with a debuff necro, MM necro, BHA ranger, Zho, Herta, Mhenlo and Lina. No need for consumables.

Shadow of Fear, Enfeebling Blood and Rip Enchantment on the debuff necro.
Verata's Gaze on the MM.
Muddy Terrain and Frozen Soil on the ranger.

Proper flagging, long pulls, hit and run. Keep an eye on the spirits. There are three mobs that require special care: the one just before locked door on level 1, the one after a pool of water (past Taskmaster Kurg) on level 2, and Taskmaster Bellok's mob shortly thereafter. Once you're past Bellok the rest is trivially easy.

It's harder to H+H than Slavers' NM just because ANet inserted several Slavers' summit mobs in there. Did it once, have no desire to do that again.

I pugged it a month back. Used a standard slavers's team. FS, the obsi tank grabs aggro, 3 showers & den mop up. Rinse & repeat for the whole dungeon. Once you get to the boss, he is cake.
