The quest guide suggests killing the defilers as soon as they show up to preserve your archers. What I did instead was to attack them so they attacked me and not the archers. This allowed me to focus entirely on the pest queen instead of trying to also worry about the defilers spawning again. Made for a much shorter and more manageable final battle. I have 92 defense so I'm not sure if that allowed me to make this work, but I also wasn't using a familiar to have any extra food to use. Maybe just add this as an alternate method?

you're right, i fougt it just now, due to the new combat style, if you are arracking the defilers for too long the queen wil lose nterest en go to full health again. the best way is either attach the defilers and make let them attack you or kill them in phases of 2 attacks, the queen will remain her lowered health and you dont have to start over again.

I just fought the queen and after trying to attack her over and over and the healers healing, I did something different. I STOPPED attacking the queen and stood outside her blast range. If a defiler came, I killed it and I let the archers first kill the healers (twice) and then the queen. I did no damage at all myself, but the archers took her out. Even if the defiler killed one or two of them before I could get to him, they were replaced within seconds. Also, the queen stopped using her blast since I wasn't in range. She just stood there and eventually died. SUPER SIMPLE.
