Why do tsoo sorcerors and ancestor ghosts over 29 not count toward the kills for these badges? Isn't that counterintuitive for some ranges to count while others don't?

Multiple sessions of any kind

Launching 10 rockets worked fine for me

Maybe they added it, because it wasn't mentioned in anything I read previously, but we had him down to something like 30% and was thinking "gosh this is easy", when suddenly we were all dead. The entire room was full again.

It was most discouraging. It took us maybe 15-30 minutes of slow pulling and dying at the door before we tried this tactic and found that it worked.

I wish the Devs could do something to make the final fights more varied. This sort of stuff isn't that exciting.

Successfully completed the sharkhead TF yesterday after the third try.

The first thing to note is this TF has a lot of longbow missions. This means lots and lots of longbow wardens and other longbow bosses. The first two teams didn't get past the first mission due to the multitude of longbow.

Team members will fail and total team wipes do happen.

It is a pretty long TF. I got about 6 bars of XP at level 29 - took over 4 hours. We skipped through as many missions as possible, just killing the final boss, clicking blinkies and the like.

Some missions involve ambushs, lots of them, including where baddies teleport into the middle of the party which makes things interesting.

You have to fight a few AVs along the way, Barracuda, Coralax Priest and finally the Eye of the Leviathan.

Normal AVs are not too much of a problem, I just thought I would mention the Eye for people who face it.

The final room has the AV priest in it and lots and lots of Coralax. Now after all those longbow missions, the Coralax were a walkover so we cleared the room easily enough and then took out the priest.

Note it is best to concentrate all your firepower on him and ignore his pets because they die as soon as he is down.

The eye of the Leviathan spawns in the wall. It has this long range AOE attack than can decimate the group. We knew that there are some spots where the eye can't hit you (like just to the right of the eye near where a human's tear duct would be). So we got in position and were quickly wearing him down. What we didn't know is there is a trigger when he gets to low health and the entire room respawns and attacks. So we had a complete team wipe.

The problem now was we had to get back to the eye and he kept killing anyone who tried to go into the room to fight or pull the baddies back to a safe position.

The trick we found was to ignore the baddies and run directly to the left of the eye hugging the wall as much as possible. You can then walk around under him, snipe or taunt baddies to clear as much of the room near the eye, get back to the right of eye and then finish him off.

This is pretty difficult for masterminds to do as they don't have the same level of control so it is advisable for them to dismiss their henchmen and resummon them while under the eye.

Hope this helps - good luck.
