Player build[]

The player build should feature "Save Yourselves!" to protect the team and Asuran Scan to ensure that you hit targets through Price of Failure, Reckless Haste and Blurred Vision. Recommendations:


Usage[]

  • Hero AI mode:
    • Set backline heroes to guard Guard
    • Set midline heroes to fight Fight
  • Wait for the titan groups to ball up themselves, then charge into them. Target a frost titan initially as that gives the greatest chance that all foes get hit by Psychic Instability.
  • All fights in this quest are very difficult. You can force the communing prot to use ShelterUnionDisplacementArmor of Unfeeling before entering a fight so your team is fully protected right away.
    • Due to the massive area damage and other area effects like Panic it is very effective to additionally flag the heroes apart. It is recommended to place them in a single line, so heroes won't push forward to get into casting range of foes and thus ball with the heroes in front of them again.
    • Natively only the first three heroes can be commanded individually. For the remaining four heroes you need to set up custom hotkeys in the controls option for Action: Command Hero #.
  • Killing priority:
  1. Titan's Heart
  2. Titan's Malice/Frost Titan
  3. Icy Brute
  4. Dark Titan
