Diessa Lowlands

Alright, this is really frustrating me.

I'm a level 10 W/Mo, and I have a ton of missions to do in the Diessa Lowlands, but I get killed there all the time by those Elementals. I take the henchman party with me, as I'm quite the n00b and I've only done one mission with other players.

I hope you guys could give me some hints about how to survive in the Diessa Lowlands. Would be very much appreciated.

Thank you,

Firenze.

i would recommend to lvl up b4 u go in there... i had a lvl 12 r/e when i first got there and still remember struggling. try to level up as much as u can and also get distraction skills and the archer henchie as she can distract too sometimes). hope it helps...

Try questing with other players. Henchies have some real poor AI in some situations. I know that there are folks out there that will cause you grief, but there are also good ones that can help you out (and you can return the favor). Human player >>>> henchman.

Yeah, but good human players are hard to come by...

And by good I mean those that will stick by you.

But anyway, thanks for the replies.

I'm not 100% sure if I'm talking about the same place, but if your having trouble in the Diessa Lowlands, I suggest doing some easier quests first to get some more levels. Piken Square can easily bring up your level to around 12, as well as provide you with some good skills. Also, try to pull the enemies in small mobs. If you see a large group, it's most likely more than 1 mob. So just run up so only 1 enemy enters your aggro radius, and then run back. Once they get far enough away from the other enemies, start fighting.

This way of thinking is perplexing considering you've only grouped with people 1 time. Not a very good sample, IMO.

I've been playing a few weeks now and I've had ONE person "get bored" and drop on me. Everyone else has been fantastic. Don't give up - the game's more fun and the missions are easier with real people!
