Suggestions for Vanquishing
RiceCream
Hi, i've got two areas left to vanquish in cantha. ive done all other 31 so far hero/hench, no consumables. howevs, the last two places i have to vanquish are Raisu Palace and Sunjiang District. any reccomendations on h/h setup or should i just drop the cash on Con sets and rush in?

Raisu is stunningly easy with a human ele and MM. Use echo / arcane / echo to insta-nuke every one of the bosses in the mission and their mobs with Celestial Storm. You can take an enchant strip in your team for sliver armour too if you really feel you have to, but it never caused me any problems there.
Sunjiang is a PITA. Careful pulling is more important than team set up or consumables. You might find it's worth taking frozen soil just in case, as there are a couple of tricky multi-res groups. No need to use it for most of the area though.

Would suggest do sunjiang with another person
it helps when each can carry the spear and urn
overall its easy at the boss bus sure to target the monk and warrior first
they kill

Raisu isn't really all that bad.
Prepare to bring lots of morale boosts and DP erasers for Sunjiang.
For both places, I used Sab's Triple Necro builds with myself as BHA. The important thing about fighting Afflicted is to take out the Ritualists as fast as possible, as they are super-powerful healers. Taking out Life also helps. After the Ritualists are down, Elementalists are usually your next biggest problem, and everything else should be easy afterwards.

A guildie and I did Raisau with 2 people/6 heroes and it was surprisingly easy. He was a warrior with Ursan and I was a Searing Flames ele.
Heroes included the 3 Sab necros, Monk healer, Monk prot, and I think a second SF.
We only wiped once at the end when we split up to look for the group we missed and my guildie tried to take them on without me

raisu i used a bonder monk believe it or not, with blessed light or something. that worked first time. sunjiang was the hardest area in cantha for me, i wasn't expecting it to be hard so i rambo'd everything and it got a little out of hand, cons woulda made it super easy though i think

Raisu Palace was so easy, it actually surprised me. Vanquished in 62 minutes, zero deaths, zero consumables.
I was playing as ranger with BHA, pain inverter (eles go insta-boom) and finish him.
3 Sab's necromancers
Henchmen was Sister Tai, the spirit guy, the earth ele. Not sure about the last, but probably Devona.
Sunjiang was a pain. 70 minutes and I had to use a powerstone.
The enemies aren't really hard, but the area design is horrible, with so many groups packed together. Long range pulling is crucial there, and you should save the Am Fah as DP remover.
Don't use melee heroes/henchmen. I used 3 necros, spirit hench, earth ele, air ele and Sister Tai.

Did Raisu with a buddy-me a warrior (I wasn't godmode at the time) and him on his Derv. Both of us used Sabway necros and steamrolled the area.
Sunjiang is pretty easy except for one area-I think it's the one with the ranger boss that presented the problem. Just use careful pulling and a conset will definitely help.
IMO if you've done the other 31 areas, those two shouldn't present a problem for you.

a nooby war build that comprises of "for great justice" or whatever the hell its called - cant remmeber and d-slash - perma spamming of DS with KD's and other crap! slightly less nooby then ursan / sabs

It's a variant of a Dragonslash build that uses DSlash to charge up the PvE skill Save Yourselves!.
The purpose of such a warrior is keep up SY! for as long as you can giving your team a huge armor buff.
They call it "Godmode" cause under the effects of SY!, the majority of damage is neglected, and in certain areas reduced to zero.

Raisu is pretty easy, if you've done the rest of Cantha, it's no big deal.
Sunjiang is a different story. I can't think of any one build that would work better than anything else, but you have to be very good at pulling or else you will suffer many deaths. More than a couple of the groups are just brutal in both size and individual guys. Possibly the hardest area in Cantha to vanquish.

Dragon slash + FGJ + Save yourselfs + Pain invtor
Sabway + ectra enchment removal
2 Heal hench, Mage, mes Henchment
Very easy

so, Raisu palace was a joke... i went Sabway.
i ended up doing Sunjiang with a second person. took two diff peeps. the first ranger i think ebayed his koabd4. but with the second guy, only had 1 whipe, using hench setup similar to "Sethellington's"
ty for suggestions

Raisu is very very easy, theres a boss on the side near the dock that needs some pulling but even then its not hard. Sunjiang was a pain in the arse, took me jst under 2 hours. Like others have said, best bet is to pull groups back to safe zones and make all ur henchies target the same monster, rits first, ele/mes, nec then monk and the rest. Did that and i vanquished, especially with no consumables, clearing an area and pulling is pretty much key.

Consumables are for pussies. Sunjiang was quite challenging because of the rezrits and mobs that join (heal from afar). Apart from that, Raisu was ease.
For H/H setup, maybe a Dual Attune condition spammer with Ward Against Melee? Lightning Orb, Enfeebling Blood, Blinding Flash ect. Sabway MM and Healer.
The rest depending on your profession.

Good thread.
I only have 3 more jade sea areas to vanquish and those two (which I was saving for last). I'm glad I came across this, but it's mostly what I expected from recalling when I mapped Cantha before Nightfall was released (ie. no heroes, HM, sabway, ursanway, etc.). Still good to see it confirmed.

I finally finished vanquishing Cantha and I have to admit that Sunjiang was a real pain! I think I wasted 12 clovers on the central mob with the Mez boss and dual rits.
