Tasks
These are your tasks:

 * Slaves of Menzies
 * Khobay the Betrayer
 * Tower of Strength
 * Restore the Temple of War
 * Kill the Shard Wolves located at:
 * Burning Forest
 * Tower of Strength
 * Temple of War (next to Nimros the Hunter)

 * Escort the Forest Griffons from the Forest to the Tower of Courage

Build

 * Maintain Shadow Form, Shroud of Distress, Dwarven Stability and the necessary cons/pcons
 * Use "I Am Unstoppable!" when pulling large groups, or when crippled
 * Use "Finish Him!" to finish kills. Best used on Khobay, Shard Wolves, Seeds of Corruption and things that the heal
 * Heal yourself with Heart of Shadows if necessary
 * Do not be afraid of large groups of enemies! In general: The more enemies attack you, the more damage you deal with Whirling Defense.

Accepting "The Hunt" and prepatations
You first task is to accept The Hunt while the Main Team completes Tower of Courage and pull some groups together on the Great Battlefield.

After entering, pop conset and your pcons and run clockwise from the Tower of Courage to Nimros the Hunter and take the quest The Hunt. The Main Team should have finished Tower of Courage by now and can kill the Shard Wolf that spawns right next to them.

During your journey to Nimros the Hunter you will pass through the Great Battlefield. In front of the Temple of War is a group of Abyssal and Shadow Beasts. Pull those into the next available group of Skeletons on your way to the Burning Forest. They will fight each other, the Skeletons will always kill the Abyssals and Shadow Beasts and you Main Team won't have to waste time taking care of them.

The Burning Forest
Run to the The Burning Forest and take the quest Slaves of Menzies from Miko the Unchained.

To pass through the Tower of Strength area, use Death's Charge on the Infernal Wurm closest to you, and jump up the cliff. Now just run straight to Nimros the Hunter and accept The Hunt. Pull as much enemies as possible towards the Shard Wolf that spawns in the area near Nimro and kill it with whirling. This may take some time and more aggro because the shadow monks heal the hard Wolf.

Now proceed towards the Burning Forest. While in there, switch to your fire shield. Use Heart of Shadows to jump down the cliff that you jumped up with Death's Charge earlier. Pull as much as you like and kill the Shard Wolf and Shadow Overlord with Whiling Defense.

The Tower of Strenght
Go back to The tower of Strength area, locate and kill the Shard Wolf by pulling it towards the tower. Use groups with Abbysals & Shadow Mesmers to trigger Whirling Defense. Afterwards you might have to wait on the Main Team to accept Tower of Strength. When the quest has been taken, pull all Shadow Patrols Shadow Rangers together. Block the Shadow Patrols at the right wall and kill them with Whirling Defense. Then kill the rangers with Whirling Defense as well.

Inform the Main Team that they should send the Tower Mage your way now. After he's arrived, either use aggro from two (!) Abyssal groups or summoning stone to kill the Shadow Lord.

Khobay the Betrayer
Proceed with Khobay the Betrayer by running to him and just overwhelming his healer with damage from Whirling Defense. You can pull a group of Obsidian Furnace Drake into Lord Khobay's room for more damage, however if a Smoke walker comes to close he will heal Lord Khobay, slowing you down.

Spider Cave
Now head to the Cave and kill the Seeds of Corruption. Use a Slice of Pumpkin Pie here and keep your health below 50%. This additional block chance from Shroud of Distress should prevent Shadow Form from getting rupted. In case this does happen, either use a Powerstone of Courage or run out of the cave using Death's Charge and Heart of Shadows to heal yourself.

Finally, go to the beach and kill the Shard Wolf there.

A Gift of Griffons
By now, the Main Team should have accepted A Gift of Griffons and cleared the way from the Forest back to Rastigan the Eternal. If this is the case, run back to the Forest, take the Griffons and deliver them to Rastigan.

Your job is now done, Good Luck at the Chest!
