Underworld with Heroes?

My girlfriend and I have been trying to do pretty much everything in GW on our own with just heroes. We've managed to do pretty much everything in hard mode by ourselves with just heroes, so we set our sights on the elite missions.

We did FOW and Mallyx (though getting to him was a pain in the ass) on normal mode, but UW has pretty much eluded us. Now they've thrown Skeletons of Dhuum into the mix, making it that much more difficult for us.

The two quests that really screw us up are The Four Horsemen and Servants of Grenth. We're able to handle all the other quests/monsters in UW. We have access to every hero/skill in the game, what would be some builds for us/our heroes to use for UW on normal mode?

I'm a dervish, she's a ritualist.

4 Horseman pretty much requires a split. With the dryders and Mesmer bosses, it requires a decent amount of anti-caster builds. Powerblock can destroy several caster builds though. Typically you see people using skills like Spell Breaker, Obsidian Flesh, and Shadow Form to handle them. Vow of Silence could work there as well though, if you have effective healing available.

Outside of the Aatxes, there really aren't any melee threats, so build a team based on anti-caster and you can do fairly well.

A tanky (spirit leech aura and shut like that) spirit spammer can hold one side on their own, or stall it for several minutes.
Its also possible to hold by the reaper, but with heroes thats probably a bad idea.

Hardest part is going to be the quest for wastes.

Also, if you aren't confident enough, use a conset. It might be a cheators way, but it gets the job done.

I find the 4 horsemen the hardest too. Just yesterday my pug team got annihilated because we didn't know there would be skeletons of dhuum and a new type of dryders among them. Generally I would say if you are good at controlling ya heroes, make one of them a obby flesh tank and let that hold off one of the sides while you pwn the other. Think the skeledhuums only spawn on the left side of the statue so get the tank on the right.
