This mission would probably be considered one of the hardest in the game, so make sure you assemble a well balanced team. From where you start head south and across the large bridge. Follow the path south until it curves back north down to the enterance to the cathedral, killing any Wardens in your way. After the area is cleared Danika will open the gate to the Cathedral. Proceed inside and defeat the groups of Wardens at the bottom of the stairs. DO NOT pick up the Urn of Saint Victor yet.
Instead head up either right or left, and clear out all the wardens on top of the stairs. After clearing everything, have a tank carry the Urn of Saint Victor. The reason for this is because the Urn charges based on the damage it's wielder takes. You don't want a squishy target such as a mesmer in the middle of 5-6 Wardens of the Trunk charging up your Urn =P. Use the Urn as often as you can, but be sure to have it charged for the last battle in the Atrium. As soon as you pick up the urn a cutscene will be triggered, and you will lose one ofyour healers: Mhenlo.
Every few seconds there will now be a Cathedral collapse which deals ~ 15 damage and interrupts anyone hit by it. It is an environment effect, therefore there is no wayto stop or prevent it. You will have to time your casts, heals and resurrects just right so you can get them off before you are interrupted by the next cathedral collapse. Head back Southeast up the stairs and take the middle path. Defeat the wardens on the left side and take the stairs down. Defeat the Wardens here, being cautious and always pulling them out a few at a time. After thearea is clear proceed Southeast up the stairs where you will be greeted by a group of Oni's.
Take your time and kill them, then proceed into a large area known as the Atrium. Upon entering the areayou should notice the boss (Stone Judge) in the middle. Have your casters stay well away from this guy, as he is extremely fast, powerful, and unpredictable. I would recommend taking out the guys that spawn around him first while your tanks keep him busy. Kill him as well as the 2 remaining Stone Crushers to complete the mission.
