[edit] Walkthrough
For this mission, all members of the party will be buffed with Sunspear Battle call which increases maximum health and armor. This can assist lower-level players to get through the mission more easily.
Leave the boat and head to the left. You will launch straight into fighting the Kournans alongside your Sunspear allies. Be wary when you approach groups of Kournan Bowmen situated at the top of stairs, often their attacks will focus on one target, making them deadly to those who are unprepared. If you are a spellcaster, try to approach from behind walls if you can, and use skills which reduce bow damage or prevent bow attacks from hitting you.
Once you've killed the bowmen here (1 on the map), go down the stairs and towards the gate. Here(2) Captain Lumanda is the gate guard who is able to call in reinforcements, so kill her first and then the rest of the Kournans to open the gate into the next area. Another strategy is to kill all the enemy reinforcements, then face the boss alone. For extra help you can pull the enemy reinforcements up the stairs and the nearby Sunspear Rangers will attack them.
In the next area, your reinforcements are trapped behind some flaming traps(3). Kill the enemies in this area and then the Kournan Engineers to allow your reinforcements through.
Continue forward, killing Kournans as you find them. You have to kill enough to capture the bombards(4) to allow you to open the next gate. Beyond that gate is the elementalist boss, Captain Mwende, whom like other elementalist bosses in Nightfall, will deal additional damage with their spells. Stay spread out and if possible, interrupt the spells that are cast.
Travel up the stairs and follow the right wall, killing Kournans on the way until you reach the main square to complete the mission.
[edit] Bonus
There are several groups of Kournans on the map in which you have to kill to obtain masters for this mission. These groups are located as yellow markers on the map provided.
The first is to the left at top of the first set of stairs that you come across, before the gate guard. The second is situated on the wall if you walk on past the bombards, so capture the bombards and head for this group before you take on the elementalist boss. The next group is to the right at the top of the first stairs after the elementalist boss, don't go left first by mistake or you could finish the mission before you're able to do the bonus.
[edit] Skill recommendations
- Stance breaking skills to use against the Kournan rangers
- Skills which block ranged attacks, such as "Shields Up!", or provide damage reduction over time, such as Shielding Hands
- All the enemies you will face will leave exploitable corpses. So Minion Masters should be able to create a substantial force to overwhelm the soldiers
