The Tombs of Myrna has created a problem. Players are power leveling through it with out having to learn any basic strategy. In fact, the Tombs of Myrna is teaching some bad lessons to our latest batch of noobs. There are no mages, which eliminates the need for any strategy or cooperation. This post is to explain why the divide and conquer mentality does not work on the other levels.
The first thing to realize is that you need to KILL THE MAGES FIRST. I will repeat in case you missed that, KILL THE MAGES FIRST.
The second thing is to gang up on each mage TOGETHER. If someone is fighting a mage, fight the SAME mage, not another. I have done some calculations assuming four people doing 110 dps facing four mages that heal at a rate of 80 h/s and have 5000 hps.
1 person attacking 1 mage takes 3 Minutes.
4 People Attacking 1 Mage takes 14 seconds
So it takes 4 people attacking 1 mage at a time 56 seconds to clear four mages compared to 3 minutes when each person attacks a separate mage.
tldr; KILL THE MAGES FIRST AND TOGETHER, and you can power through ANY level.
