Arbalest spams her flare while the Occultist either debuffs the swine princes damage (ideally as far as 80 for the entire fight) or marks the boss. My go-to team for this boss goes: Arbalest - Occultist - Houndmaster - Bounty Hunter.

2x Crusader/Lepers: To hack the pews before getting to the boss, it's worth noting that Crusader has a damage bonus to Unholy enemies (Prophet). As other have already noted, the Arbalest is extremely useful for this fight.

Hellion/Houndmaster/Grave Robber/Plague Doctor: Essentially you just want someone who is able to cast Blight or Bleed and preferably one that gets a damage bonus as a result too.

When it comes to your party setup, we recommend using the following heroes if you plan to destroy the pews: Your Vestal will be in charge of healing while the rest of your team focuses on taking down the Prophet as soon as possible. The Arbalest and Bounty Hunter have damage bonus skills against marked targets, and the Grave Robber has damage bonus skills against marked and blighted targets. If you plan to ignore the pews, stack Bleed and Blight on the Prophet and also make sure you Mark him.

Hellion/Houndmaster: Can attack position four/inflict Bleed.

(The Bounty Hunter can also do this, but has a weaker attack for position four.)

Arbalest: To Mark the Prophet/can attack position four.Grave Robber/Plague Doctor: Can attack position four and inflict Blight.When it comes to your party setup, we recommend using the following heroes if you plan to ignore the pews:
