Strategy for Daeyena in Honour mode (Solo)

[Alex998]

I'm running a currently level 4 solo lone wolf character (summoner/necro to be exact) in fort joy, i need Daeyena's quest so i need her alive, but no matter how powerful i am, i can't kill the magisters surrounding her in time before they gang her up and absolutely wreck her in mere seconds (at this difficulty they seem to specifically aim at her first above everything else). Even with all the buffs i apply to her, she still dies very quickly.
Anyone running (or having runned a similar character in the past) have a possible strategy to keep her alive ?

I don't think it's a problem if she dies.
you can just wait until you have a higher level
your summons must be level 10. if not, buy rings and equipment.
you can use the worm tremor combination and the torturer talent to block enemies on the ground and limit the damage
you can also teleport the dog up: as he can't go down the ladder he won't do any more damage and you can kill him at the end.
otherwise even if you are solo you can invite your companions to collect healing scrolls from the girl near the beach to help you (1 per character if you listen to her story)
I just advise you to wait for level 6-7 to make it easier for you

You can still get the armor if she dies at any point in the quest. She herself isn’t important for it.

Part of what might be hurting you is the AP spent on buffs. That’s AP you’re not using to damage and CC the magisters. The only buff she should need is uncanny dodge if you want to use one. You can teleport the poochy up onto one of the masts where he can’t do anything and a Worm Tremor/Torturer cast can lock down their movement.

It’s hard to offer too much without knowing what you’re working with as far as team is concerned.

Teleporting the dog up is something i didn't considered, could be useful.
Anyway, probably the best course of action is indeed levelling up a bit more, at least until i get both the buffs for my incarnate as my character won't be exactly engaging enemies head on until level 6 (i'm following a specific path for my build, and i won't be getting the Torturer talent until much later).

As i said, it's a summoner/necro build. The path i'm taking won't include the torturer talent until much later, and for the moment my character simply stays in the rear and lets the incarnate/totems dels the most damage.
I suppose it's probably better to leave the fight for later until i levelled up a little bit.

You can cheese the fight by teleporting people into the pit on the side of the ship.

yes it's the simplest but in my opinion playing solo is interesting when you know the game well. it's your choice so good luck
if you use a guide to advance (for example those of lost Sinner (sin tee)) you can also modify it a little by following other advice because these builds are old and even if they are good they are not necessarily optimized .

Dang, was it that obvious i'm following sin tee videos ? XD
Thanks for the suggestions anyway.
