Any advice for Beating Shiro with a Factions only Ranger?

[Kerus Tel Veren]

I tried for several hours last night with a friend and heroes, had no luck whatsoever. Tried today solo a bit with heroes and henchmen, still no luck whatsoever.

Once he gets down to impossible odds, I/we simply cannot do enough damage to finish him off before he kills the party, or kills enough and then meditates back to full health. Even echo chaining Celestial Stance didn't give enough time to kill him. And that's with a dedicated Curse necro and Ward against Melee both.

Even more aggravating, when I'm playing with my friend (he's a Rit), his banishment causes huge problems, because his stupid bound spirit creates incredibly annoying spirits that are apparently reviving the bound spirit with Restoration when he comes back, leaving it and the spirits behind.

I'm really sick of this fight, any advice? Remember, Factions only Ranger, though I have access to all campaigns for hero skills.

The easiest way to do it is with an echo {e} warrior (to echo the celestial skill) and a sassi. The sassi uses his skill to create some phantom sassis, the warrior uses echo -> sword storm -> sword storm once the first expires. That will do it pretty quickly.

As long as you bring a pet or get in touch range, it's all the easier.
