I am a level 13 necro. I have been doing many missions with henchies. I did the ice caves of sorrow quite easily with henchies and i can do most of iron mines. I am infused but as soon as i go after markis, my party gets owned by the mursaat. It is easier when im infused but is it still supposed to be so hard?
I know im a low level but still the henchies should be able to get me through. I have a few questions.
1) When i begin the missions after dieing do i have to re-infuse my henchies?
2) I have tried it without re-infusing but i get a ways into it then get owned by a jade something of other.
3) Is it because im such a low level? If so i can put off the mission until im level 20 but i just want to get it out of the way.
please help me if you have any information.
I'm perturbed!

As far as I know the henchmen at Iron Mines are not infused, they do not get infused during the mission and they dont get infused until the next mission. As far as I know.

o, ok. well so then it kind of forces me to do the quest with real people?

You could say so.

Just run ahead of your henchmen to take the first agony, then run back and let them tank normally. I've noticed that the enemies in that mission specifically target you for SA more often than not.

Another thing is to aggro Markis last. There are two turrets surrounding the opening. You can run around and up one turret without your aggro bubble touching Markis. Kill off the Mursaat on both turrets first.
Then you can kill Markis. Be careful though. There are 4 pillars surrounding Markis. These contain Jade Bows encased in super mystical Mursaat stasis crystals. It's possible to kill Markis first if you pull him away from these. Then go to the extreme side of one pair of crystals and then only 2 Jade Bow will pop out at a time. This will make your life so much easier. I would focus on trying to keep the tank alive. Sometimes its actually easier to only bring one tank and keep him alive rather than two. Experiment with your henchie config. A good one might be Lina, Alesia, Thom (I always take him over Stefen if I only take 1 of them), Claude, Aiden, Orion, Dunham. Even if Dunham is mostly useless, at least he's health fodder and gives you that much longer. Occasionally he actually casts a useful spell.
Good luck.
