My group did it and it worked like a charm. Have a stance tank with glads def. and anything else and have one monk keep him alive. Every enemy will go for him while u can trap and nuke

I assume you mean "have the tank hold the torch" and this has already been mentioned.

Actually there is a very easy way to do both the mission and the bonus. Once you clear the fort, light the torches and stand behind the king. The mursaat will come in, and kill anything that comes near them including the other mursaat. One or two groups might get by to the king, but it rarely happens.

Exploit I learned of recently, saw it in action once, will never use it again.

Provided you light them the instant the cutscene is over (as if you were doing the bonus normally), and you don't aggro anything on your way back to the king, it should work. The mursaat from the bonus will come in, and wander around in the middle of the fort until something gets in their path.

I remember doing THK on my monk several months ago and this happened. A group of Mursaat and Jades came in and sat there. We saw more coming in, along with some White Mantle, and thought we would be overrun. Then the White Mantle Zealots used IWAY, and the Mursaat began attacking each other. Guess even the Mursaat have feuds now and then. >_>
