Defeating Malistaire?

So I've reached the point that I'm going after Malistaire. I know that it's going to take much more than me to defeat him. Heck at this point, I've not been able to get to him. I'm still exploring his lair and getting defeated by his henchmen.

What is the best way to gather enough people to help me defeat him?
Or to find people who are in the same position as I?
Is there a better place to post to find people to meet up with?

I am reading all the posts that I can find on the boards.

Thanks!

If you're life and worth your salt, it doesn't take MUCH more to defeat him. You and a grandmaster storm that isn't completely brain-dead could do up to and defeat Malistaire if you decided to (and maybe ask a friend to port in for 30 seconds to activate the third crystal necessary to open the door). You could do it with a death GM too, although that would take much longer, as Malistaire and all his bodyguards in the last room resist death.

If all you really want to do is Malistaire at the exclusion of all else, hang out in the Roost right in front of the zone-in for his lair. If after a couple minutes you can't find enough people to run with you, change realms and see if the new realm has people waiting to find others to do him. Unless you try at odd hours of the day, you shouldn't take more than 10-15 minutes to get a group good enough to run the instance.

Malistaire is a hard opponent but me and my best friend defeated him. He is a 49 Fire and i am a 31 Fire. His henchmans are easy. Use any attack that attacks all of them and put a bunch of traps. For instance me i soloed most of the henchmans like Soul Servant and those guys. I used a meteor and tons of traps and it wasy easy to defeat them. When you fight Malistaire you must defeat the minions first then go for him and make sure you use strong attacks and dont use death.

You can use death as long as you use a trap on all of them and use something like a scarecrow.

You need about four people because you will need some people to stay behind to unlock doors by staying my a crystal and pressing "x". So three people will be defeating the monstaers in the dungeon. It is really easy! Malistare will not, i am telling you, he will NOT USE SCARECROW. The minions i think used it once in my first time killing him. You can pass fights easisly. Some you can just go in then flee then port to your friends. The best part probably about the dungeon is you can port to people inside it. The fights are propbably the hardest when you are fighting your own school monster. But other than that the dungeon is easy.

Ok since your life here are the "jobs" of you and your team

Your team should be of a death,life(you),storm and the 4th person is your choice.

Jobs:

You-your job would to be to keep the team alive and to pick off the servants with centaurs and get malistare when they are dead.

Death person-he/she should be using convert + death blade + feint + wraith on malistare.

Storm person-he/she should be using tritions,stormzillas,wild bolts etc on malistare or tempests/storm lords when the soul servents are getting harassing.

The job of your 4th person: (job depends on school)

Fire:he/she should be casting helephants,fire dragon etc on malistare to bump his health down.

Myth:should be casting orthrus and and breaking death traps if malsitare has lots of pips.

Ice:should be helping keep the team alive with tower shields and hitting with spells like collosus.

Balance:like the ice person, he/she should be casting blades to support the team and using judgement, hydra, etc

The spell around the field(or how i call it the bubble -) should be sanctuary, NOT a field just supporting one person unless everyone is ok with it.

You don't REALLY need a third person to activate the third crystal. See, what I do is mark my location at one crystal, go to the next, and have a friend at the third. I tell him to activate, I activate also, and I teleport back to my marked location and push the third . I beaten Malistaire plenty of times with only 2 people.

P.S. Has anyone EVER soloed Malistaire? I don't know anyone after getting addicted to this game who has done it.

The fastest way I found to find someone to fight Malistaire was to go to the Basilica and yell "I'm going to go fight Malistaire, anyone else want to come along?" Took me no time at all to fine more than enough to go.

Yeah, that's technically true. However I like to think my buddy list is pretty full and healthy, and since I normally skip gurtoks when I go in there I found it quicker to have someone port in for 15 seconds as opposed to anchoring, logging out, porting, porting, anchoring again, logging out, porting, blah blah yadda yadda so on and so forth. Much easier for me to say, "Hey you. Stand here and click this".

And, like you, I've done it with one other person, but it was a PAIN in an area of the body I won't mention. Also, you may not consider it technically 2 on 4 because she summoned a crown henchman.

You don't really need a life person with you. I did it without. We had a storm(me), another storm, and 2 balance people. It was really easy because the balance people gave us storm people a bunch of power boosts.

I have been trying to get through the Malistaire's Lair now for about a week by myself. I have made it to the elevator twice but couldn't go inside to get to Malistaire. I would really like it if someone would help me beat him or at least help me get inside to fight him. I have a lvl 50 and a lvl 13 Balance Wizard. My other spells are life so I can heal whoever wants to try and fight him with me, let me know when and where to meet you and we can get together to fight him.

I will give ya a guide to the whole dungeon. first you need to go through path of scales. you dont need to go to upper great spyre to get to the volcano elevator. just when you walk up to the door and almost go in port to friend in dungeon FAST and you will end up at volcano elevator. ok now your at the helephants. if you wanna you can defeat them to get the rare grandmaster gear OR you can get someone to go in battle, esc quit log back in and port when you get to crystal. here is a tip. NEVER EVER go into the howling cave.
i can avoid the bosses easier going through short cool dragons maw. ok once you get into crown of fire and to his henchman (soul servants) defeat them with super good attacks to all foes(meteor strike, storm lord, etc) and get to the top and defeat malistare. defeat him with AT LEAST 4 people or else its a pain. k now you finished! hope this helped ~Caleb Lionhunter lvl 48 (AND finished game except GH )

If you want to gather guys to help you if you have text chat go to the Basilica and just yell "Goin' to defeat Malistare who wants to come!" Chances are you will get a lot of volunteers!!!

You don't even really need a life... just a bunch of potions and possibly a friend who you can just teleport to if you die and flee...
