Heroes Blaze Through Cantha's Most Difficult Missions

So, I was bored, and was testing a set-up for the ultimate 1 Human/3 Hero build for Hard Mode. I test-run the build in Tahnnakki Temple and Raisu Palace, generally considered to be the most difficult missions to obtain a Masters rating on in Cantha.

Well...the test...was a success.

Tahnnakki Temple



Raisu Palace



The Masters times for those missions are 20 minutes. Yet I beat it by about 6 minutes...that's about a 30% speed increase over the Masters time.

If you are bored, try these missions out, and see how easy they now are.

yes, Heroes are very strong. At UW, FoW weekend me and my friend made a team of 2 man + 6 heroes and we cleared every parts with not much problem.

I also did all Sorrow Fernace Quests, Titan Quests in Prophecies with my mesmer(I never get party with mesmer ) and I cleared every quests easy. ^^

Oh yeah, I know. A while back, my wife and I did Gyala Hatchery with heroes and actually got Masters - on the normal path! We had never done that before. We always had to do the back way. A hero MM pretty much assures victory in most cases. Add in an SF ele or two, and you can plow through just about anything.

Although, I never really considered Tahnnaki Temple difficult. That one's actually fun, IMO. Raisu can be difficult, although probably easier with henchies than heroes since they at least get their celestial skills.

yup, played through factions with heroes and henchmen only...
the only mission where I did not get masters was nahpui quarter(I joined a pug, did it again with heroes afterwards and I had lots of time left^^)

Most missions in previous campaigns are easy now with heroes

Tahnnakki Temple 13mins..thats quite impressive, ive tried it about 50 times and always get 21 mins -.-

temple is indeed pretty impressive - raisu is not, knowing when to run and what to evade makes it a breeze.

When I brought my Ranger over from Nightfall I just blazed through Factions. Masters through the first several missions no problem. Granted, the missions aren't all that difficult, but having the Heroes saved me from having to spam 'lfg' until I could find a decent group and they were effective enough to just blaze through those missions like a hot knife through butter. There were a couple of places where I ditched the Heroes and went with a party (Eternal Grove for one), but they made some of the most difficult missions a cake walk.

As for Tahnnakai, I seemingly don't have great difficulty getting Masters there. Vinzunah used to be a major pain, but it just seems easier with AI then PCs. Raisu is easy enough if you grab Danika & Talon and then just run through the Acid Corridor and take out the Ritualist boss. The problem with Raisu is finding a party and then convincing them to run the acid corridor and that taking Cynn and Argo aren't the best ideas...

If anyone can post decent hero builds to use to defeat Shiro quickly, then post away.

Awesome time on Raisu...I missed masters by 15 seconds when helping my friend which heroes do you run with?

Just because they're the "most" difficult, doesn't mean their difficult. I'm not seeing anything extraordinary?

Got Masters in Naipai mission with Heroes + Henchmens. I laugh at those people who spend 10 minutes spamming LFG masters or GLF masters.

A few more times:

Nahpui Quarter



Masters for Nahpui is 25 minutes.

Boreas Seabed



Masters for Boreas is 20 minutes. (???)

Arborstone



Masters for Arborstone is 30 minutes (???)

When's Hard Mode?

What the hell hero's do you take?

Here's a good one, unwaking waters in 8 mins



As you can see there were only 3 human players (hench on steroids anyone?).

I henched unwaking in 8:53 on the first attempt I ever made at it, before I even had heroes. Its an easy mission.
