Hell's Precipise

[Geosam105]

I'm wondering how to beat Hell's Precipise as a solo player (if it's possible). I'm a warrior class, with Heroes (MOX, Tahlkora, Donkuro, Ogden, Koss, Zhed, Jora...). I've gotten to about 1/3 done before my party got cremated.

I recently completed this mission (with bonus) on my E/Me with setup of:
E/Me - Arcane Echo combined with Breath of the Great Dwarf (EotN expansion) for Burning removal and some heal and Blurred Vision (blind and burning removal), Empathy(not mandatory)

E (Zhed) - cold damage, Blurred Vision, Maelstorm+Ice Spear,Frigid Armor. Water magic.

Mo (Dunkoro) - healing prayers+divine favor, Healer's Boon(elite)
Mo (Odgen) - protection prayers, heavy condition removal,
Restore Condition (elite)

D (Mox) - tank, Avatar of Melandru (elite) with 2 quick enchantment and 2 normal ones. And 2 ability that removes enchats and heals. Scythe and Mysticism.
W (Koss) - tanking, blocking, extra armor for the team, Warrior's Endurance (elite). Strength and Tactics.

Me (Gwen) - Mantra of Flame, INTERRUPTS (alot), enemy damage reductions, increased enemy CD. Domination and Inspiration. No elite spells was used.
N (Master of Whispers) - Curses + blood magic for Blood Ritual, Wither (elite), Weakness conditions, Cracked armor condition, Slower attack condition.


Things to watch out for:
The fire imps there (Spark of the Titans). They are the deadliest in the mission with their Rodgort's Invocation and Mind Burn spam. 2 of them nearly wiped out my team because I was too slow to remove the burning effect on my team and the team wasn't spread out at all. Removing burning effects and interrupting them is the NUMBER 1 PRIORITY.
Kill priority: Spark of the Titans --> Burning Titan --> Fist/Hand of the Titans --> Risen Ashen Hulk

Notes:
-Burning Titan on death becomes Risen Ashen Hulks and then Risen Ashen Hulk on death becomes Fist/Hand of the Titans
-Cold damage is very effective against Titans
-Titans are immune to Poison,Bleeding and Disease
-Titans don't leave a corpse behind (so no minion master)
-Burning Titans applies burning condition to adjacent players and heroes
-When Approaching Spark of the Titans the 2 tank should be separated from the group and from each other when pulling the imps in so they alone get the first burst damage which the Monks can easily mitigate and heal back. Also the rest of the group should stay behind for like 2-3 seconds after the fight starts.

PS: if you still haven't completed this mission I am willing to help you since I am in need to get Aura of the Lich elite spell. So I am gonna run it again either way.

Ok, good to know.

I highly recommend creating a full group of mercenaries. You'll need to buy the Mercenary Hero Complete Pack to unlock all eight slots. The quickest way to create mercs for any professional is to

1. Create a desired class PVP character (they start at level 20).
2. give them the approrpiate armor, costumes, and/or hats [optional]
3. register them.

Once registered, you can equip them with armor and stuff.
