i killed one during my enslavement using 3 furnace gaurdians to help me :P
Diablo???
same here, in fact my character was dead, laying on the ground, as I watched the three furnace guardians pummel the djinn to death. the quest was "fire in the hole", but if theres another quest later with more djinns... I shutter to think about it... lol
Nisha
Hmm, I killed the Fire in the Hole one rather easily. I haven't taken on the Last Assault yet. Might be because I Maelstromed it.
gabe99
I had the same problem with the quest... just getting to that part is challenging enough...However, a ranger with winter might help quite a bit. I was thinking of making sure that was in the group next time i tried

Run him into the furnace guardians, then attack him, he goes down crazy fast. Or just run him under the smashers and he gets pwned.
octaviancmb
Or, hey, I hear there's this profession called a "Mesmer" or something. They might be able to help kill it.
Nah, they totally suck.
Nah, they totally suck.

Of course Mesmers suck. They can only shut down enemies and prevent them from using skills, they can't do direct damage so they must suck.

Hmm, I tried to takeon the Djinn from "fire in the hole" with my ranger ( on full interrupt mode ) with the henches.
That crazy "consuming flame" skill or whatever... I couldn't interrupt it and when i did, she/he/it used flourish to get it back up again... interrupting both never seemed to happen, until ofcourse... Devona went berserk on the thing, seemingly pinning it to the ground with knockdowns, hurrah for Devona! Cynn ofcourse had to butt in with a firestorm
completely healing the djinn with it, booh Cynn!

I don't believe the Flame Djinn uses many spells at all, he also has a hex removal, making a mesmer not too useful.

it's main attack deal 400 damage to one target, or if 2 are nearby 200 dmg to each and so on, so just get every team member to crowd around it. It won't do less damage total but it will spread the damage across all the targets.
This uber attack also heal the djin for the amount it damages a single target, so again crowding around it will help. Like others have said, use the NPCs to soak a bit of damage and reduce it's healing further. Very easy to kill this way.

I believe mainly you need to shut down the flourish... you will probably need the like of diversion and related... interruption is just not fast enough for flourish.

wow
thanks for all replies....hope i can take on 3...because there are 3 of them

Ok now how come thsi was so hard for all of you?
I did this on my first try with henchies and I was a fire elemtal. I used Cynn, Devona, Little Thom, Mhenlo, Lina, Aidan, and Eve. The only SF quest that was milidy hard was the priest one becuase I had to kee prunning back and forth. All of the others I did first or second try with no problems.
I have also done it with a balanced guilde team and had no trouble. I've actually been complaining how easy SF has been compared to UW and the like.
My advice to you is to get a balanced team and all concentrate fire on the flame dude. You need some pretty good monking but its not to bad as henchies could do it.

Speed increasing skills and switched to E/R with some traps and pulled the baddies closer to the dude and lots of luck.

Emperor Tippy is talking about the infiltration quest where you fight the ONE flame djinn that was causing problems.
The OP is talking about the Last assault quest, the one where you have to go deep within to where the Golem is and there are THREE Flame Djinn.
Zenny
Well just did the 3 Djinn part. Lots of deaths, but even with a heavy death penalty we pulled through.
Like Gou said for the strategy:
That is all exactly who it works. And I think it's very possible to pull one at a time. They aggro in a weird way so it's not easy to find it but different angles will warrant different pulling results.
Good Luck~

Its hard to find a group for Final Assault! I need a group for this mission.
Here's a way to beat this mission.
Party:
3 Healers
3 Tanks
2 Nukers
(For those who are equipped with Heal Party skill, BRING IT! ITS VITAL)
Get your Morale Boost up to 10% before you fight the 3 guys on the platforms near the robot. When you finally make it to where the giant robot is located, kill all the Guardians first. When you've done that, split into 3 groups (each must have 1 healer and one tank, the nukers can chose any group). Each group must select one of the three enemies standing on the platforms to target. Tanks and/or Nukers kill them while the Healers heal the Tanks/Nukers. When its time to fight the Djinn, there will be 3 of them...kill one at a time. Don't use enchantments when fighting the Djinn, everyone must bunch up and targetting the Djinn. Keep spamming Heal Party for this, the Djinn will divide the 400 dmg to everyone near it so bunch up near the Djinn. Keep repeating this for every Djinn you fight.
P.S. If you have high DP for the end from the Djinn...keep going, don't give up and don't leave the mission.

Like everybody said, Winter is very useful, luring one by itself and everybody surrounding it.
Also knocking them down is a big help. First time I tried this with a group we all ended up with -60% DP, a 7 party group and only 1 healer, yet we still managed to (almost) kill one with continuous knock-downs. Was a breeze second time.

Actually Mesmers aren't too efective against this guy. He's hard to shutdown in that he's a warrior that nukes with a skill. Not too many of those going around. Said skill appears to have a .25 activate time so you can't interupt it with Cry of frustration. It's a monster skill so you can't steal it with Arcane Thievery. My Mes/Nec and a Ele/Mes both spammed diversion on it and consuming flames still got through (I'm guessing it has multiple copies on it's skill bar). Basically it looks like the only way to shut this guy down with mesmer skills is Blackout. Or Imagined Burden if you want to kite him.
I just normally go, "Group! Ball Formation!", that works.

Easy way to beat Djinn: Lure it back to the Furnace Guardians. They make short work of it, you just have to watch.
Draconian Lord
Just a quick question does anyone know if the skill "Comsuming Flame" the the flame djinn uses is capturable with a signet. Because that is one bad motha of a skill. Even though the dmg would not be 400 for a lvl character it would still be remarkably useful in combat against several enemies. If anyone is able to capture this let me know.
QuixotesGhost
Being a (monster skill), much like Wurm Seige, it is not capturable.
Sai of Winter
There's another way to defeat them...spam the kegs! It will knock them down and they won't attack.
Credit to the person who told me this. I don't know if I can put her name in here.

I've taken similar damage from Meteors that the hydras just outside of the Ember Light Camp call down.
A competent Fire elementalist player could be just as bad, really. Air magic is just so much more popular in PvP... probably because of the exhaustion and blindness it causes.

The party setup I was in when we beat that mission was: 2 healing monks, Lina, 2 warriors (inc. Devona), 2 elementalists (both fire iirc) and a minion necro.
kleps
i was in a PUG tonight doing final assault and we literally got raped by the 3 flame djinns for probably 30 minutes. sitting at 60 dp, there wasnt much that we could do.
however, we did find a way to beat them and if you look at the my screen shots, they do not show any hp loss.
no the photos were not chopped. i still have the original 2mb print screens sitting in my folder if anyone wants to see them.

I've finally finished that mission on my third try!!! Man I tell you, it was nuts! In our group we had one person that doesn't speak english and she was aggroing everything. Everything one of our party spoke to her, all she does is stay quiet or infinitely say "lol." (O_o) We found out she was from China... Lucky we had someone in our group that could speak Chinese. It was pretty funny seeing her translate the directions to the Chinese person. I wish I had taken pictures of that (-_-)' Once she knew what to do, we finally beat that friggin mission. Thanks to our little monk girl who translated the directions to her or we would've been screwed.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAA!
I think you're Goerge W. Bush since he is that stupid.
The mesmer is the best profession in the game. We can counter exactly everything. If you played during the betas, ANET & NCSoft recommended not to play as a mesmer as your starting character since they're hard to play with. Also, it's the hardest profession to control.
The easiest profession to control would be the warrior and the elementalist.
If I'm not mistaken, I think that shit of yours is coming from a n00b ranger.
Hentai
Agreed with Paine.
Rancour
Now, I wouldn't say Mesmers are the strongest. Wether a profession is the "strongest" can only be defined by the player. However, it's wrong to say that Mesmers suck. In the right hands, any profession can be deadly and even a Warrior can stink in the hands of a newbie. It all depends on the skills of the player.
But it's true, though, that Mesmer is a tough profession to learn to use properly. Using the right skills at the right moment is essential. But in my opinion, all the profession are pretty easy to learn, but hard to master. The Mesmer is just harder to learn to use, but is equally hard to master as the Warrior profession.

Since the Djinn's damage is divided between all the targets, mob him with masses of minions, pets, melee him with the whole team, even the casters and drag the npcs in too. Oh look, he's suddenly doing about 20-30 damage instead of 400. OMGWTFPWNed.

. The only people who think that mesmers are the strongest class are those who were either A.) beaten by one, B.) Just figured out how to use it and think they are "leet" C.) Like bragging about being the most underplayed class in the PvE side.
So where you get it as being the best is beyond me, a mesmer can counter alot of crap, Casters more than Warriors or Rangers, but that doesn't make them better than everyone else. Lets make a list....
We have rangers, which you called noobs, perhaps the best counter to a mesmer. Perhaps you are pissed at being killed by them? So quick list now...
Ranger > Mesmer > Elementalist/Necro/Monk > Warrior > Ranger... etc....

When i was in a group he mauled us at first then we all seperated and a few guys were left he chased them to the furance guardians and the brutes or summits nearby not so sure and he made quick work of them then he vanished and we just went on with mission
