Or you could just bring inspired hex on 2 healing monks, 2 prot monks, vamp weapons on the non casters and replace all those crappy trappers with some kind of blood necro/touch ranger. No mobs spawn from knockdown, kanaxai dies fast, gg.

His post is very useful and he put considerable effort in making maps and explain positioning, and given that noone was born knowing how to beat Kanaxai..

Great pictures. This is a very good strategy for the end boss, and it works like a charm.

Ive been stuck in The Deep for over a week now. This is too fun. Ive played as a tank and necro. I've been in 8 pugs that have been able to complete it. I have yet to see the non-KD technique, as it sounds very interesting. I like the 2 ranger build, as the KD technique mentioned by the OP, works so well.

No mobs spawn from knockdown, kanaxai dies fast, gg. vamp does not work anymore, diversion apparently also isn't working. KD is still imperative, as is a trapper or two.
I've been running ss nec with 16curse/11 blood/9soul : reckless haste, arcane echo, SS, spinal, inspired enchant, well of blood, br, res and I stay on the Kanaxai with a cold staff who never gets enchants for more than 2 secs on the rare times it gets through spinal. When I have energy I throw SS and reckless haste as well which hastens his demise. I've also done this while being the ONLY battery and won. The real key is good communication and teamwork. I was lucky on my very first run to run with an extremely experienced group.

TheMadKingGeorge:hanks for guide but putting traps around casters is good but due to chaos storm i owuldnt recomend staying there XD

true there is a problem with the chaos storm but as i said for the first breakpoint its trap around Kanaxai and not around casters

for the last break point it doesnt really mather since there will only spawn a few chaos storm casters(mesmers) so there is no big danger plus the traps normaly takes care of everything before they get a chance to cast chaos storm

pegasux: wow nice guide!

tx :P its the outcome of being without internet for a dayT_T

hmm yeah that might be the downpoint of this guide..... T_T
but look at the bright side now you can atleast kill the boss with a bunch of newbies....
