Vote of confidence?

It would be hard to solo, best bet would be to run 4 folks and a "Mini MF" with saccer, resmer, MM, and heal area monk. That's the only way i've seen it done.

What's the deal with everybody's view of THK? I ran it with henchies on my ranger (2nd PvE char) and finished it in the first try...

I've beaten it with a guildie and six henchies. I highly reccomend the "stay in one group near King Jalis" strategy. Always use the catapults, though. It's okay if you scramble to the original strategy at the start with the phantoms. I've always beaten THK when camping near the King.

It can be done with 7 Henchmen easier than you'd think. I was able to complete the mission with my Necro, by basically camping by Jalis. I made use of the Trebuchets whenever possible, and called targets one by one so all henchmen would focus on the same target. The Mursaat Monk boss did spawn, but I left him for last, killing the rest first to avoid a pile up. Then with the help of SS and Spinal Shivers, I was able to take him down. Also, I made good use of Well of Blood, which kept Thom's and Devona's Health regenerating during those tough fights. My setup was as follows:

~Skills:
-Vampiric Gaze
-Shadow Strike
-Arcane Echo
-Spiteful Spirit {E}
-Suffering
-Well of Blood
-Spinal Shivers
-Res Signet

~Attributes:
-11+3+1 Curses
-10+1 Blood
-10+1 Soul Reaping

So don't assume that it's impossible to complete with henchmen judging by your success with PUGs. Using Henchmen can work very well, as long as you know how to control aggro and play it carefully.

I think people are missing the OP's message: he's looking for a way to run it (presumably for profit, but could be for fun?)

Yes, many among us have beaten THK once you know how. This does not appear to be a "OMG I can't beat THK" thread, or "Hah, THK is so easy" thread (but it appears to be heading in that direction!)

Anyway ... if you can find a good build and a group of people who can help you run THK for profit, it would be really a good source of income (Elona, Droks, etc. runs are a pretty sure bet to make money). Good luck man and have fun.

dsd you have to stop typing like you have no fingers, your posts are impossible to decipher, not just this one, all of them. You make no sense. So stop wasting our time with your half baked thoughts, if you cannot learn to communicate in english, either take a class(shoulda payed more attention in shcool), or quit garbling up the forum with your non sensical drivvle.

That's drivel, not drivvle. Nonsensical is one word. The past tense of pay is paid, not payed. However, I do agree with what you said, and your minor errors were nothing compared to the monstrous atrocities against the English languages that dsd had committed. By the way, I didn't mean to offend either of you, I was just having some fun.

I believe a run [of this mission] could be possible by having trappers trap the hell out of the area around the king, and trap near the gates, so you can hold off a few more enemies. A necro with Blood Ritual, a healer monk, and a tank leading the way can run this mission for others. The run would kick ass. Would this work? I may try it. ^_^

Yes guys, with guildies it only takes 25 minutes to run the mission, and if I want others to know how to run this mission, I will post it in the builds section of the forums.

Yes, I know, lol. I thought that people might have suggestions to help make the run smoother, instead of post saying "I did this mission with henchies" lol. Ok, well does anyone know how this idea can be improved?

You could probably turn a profit just by having 3-4 guildies in the group and charging the other 4 members. Other than that I don't see how you can turn a profit on this mission, sure people have trouble with it, but the ones that do have trouble usually don't have 5-10k to shovel out for a free ride either.
