Strategy for 4-skull battles

[Lorax]

Does anyone have a good strategy for the 4-skull battles? I haven't been able to win one without everyone getting knocked out or dying. I have level 4 mages and dragonflasks.

Have you tried Earth Guardian Potions?

No, actually. How many turns does one last?

It adds 250 armor + Taunt 3 to a Mage till the armor runs out. You could then use a Earth Shattered student for extra armor and Taunt. So you have your tank, and thats it.

Strong earth tank and whole bunch of potions, can deal with them with a group of level 2 wands. Been using fire mage and wind on the back row, nature and earth on the front. Haste potions are awesome (2 attacks&2 potions in one round), as are power potions&buffs and those earth guardian potions&spells. With nature's power buff and a power potion my fire mage can almost take one down in the first hit.

oh yeah and 2-3 Dragonfire flasks to the mix and you can have 2 mobs down in the first round

just make sure your tank to have at least 25 speed. Otherwise the 3 to 4 scythes that spawns will obliterate your party before you even start

Potions. Whatever best combinations of potions you have available... Retaliation (Earth Mage), Hastening, Dragon Flask, Earth Guardian (Earth Mage), Strength (Air Mage)... I usually bring 3 Dragon Flask to ensure fast death of at least one mob. And Strength potion to a Raven Cult Air Mage can get things done quickly.

My team is usually Earth, Wind, Lightning and Fire but depending on how many battles you want to do... have to adjust as well.

This needs to change. Why in h3ck, even without great speed bonuses i am always the last to shot in later fights??? sometimes you dont even get a chance to even use any potion, and yet, if you do, you are going to waste your turn using potions and whatnot instead shoting the enemy. Resulting in more mages dead lol. Its pretty idiotic.
