Tips for defeating Murakai

 * All of Murakai's skills are spells, so keeping her dazed makes the fight much easier.
 * Interrupts and knock downs can neutralize most of the danger from her.
 * One strategy is combine Awe and/or Earthbind with knock down skills, e.g. "You Move Like a Dwarf!" or Brawling Headbutt.
 * Another is to use Wanderlust to keep her in an almost constant state of knock down.
 * Murakai can be killed easily in Hard mode with Pain Inverter, since her area of effect (AoE) skills will cause her to suffer multiple hits of reflected damage.
 * Keep spread out; Murakai's Storm of Souls can wipe an entire party.
 * You can try to pull her towards the bridge on the east side of her chamber, taking advantage of the fire spout to damage her and/or her minions. Alternatively, body block them and apply AoE damage on all your foes at once.
 * If all your party members have a ranged build, an animal companion will hold her aggro, keep her Power meter from recharging quickly, and keep her within range.


 * If she fills her Power meter, spread out before she uses her Storm of Souls, so that only one party member is at risk.
 * Try slowing down the recharge of her Power meter by tackling her one-on-one and bringing the rest of the party into play only when dealing with her summoned allies.
 * Bring plenty of condition removal skills. Cautery Signet can be combined with Plague Sending and/or Plague Touch to inflict burning while removing all or most of the conditions from the entire party.

Trivia

 * Before the October 7th, 2009 Update, it was possible to get Murakai to spawn infinite enemies with Murakai's Call.
