    At level 55 you should have better tools available to you to help clear this quest than you've listed, so might be a bit of a learning opportunity here.

    First: Swap out Ifrit in this case for Garuda. The three summons function differently and have better uses for each situation. Ifrit excels at single target damage, Garuda for area damage, and Titan.... has always been the odd one out. He can do a little of both and can provide a shield, but you're going to be doing a lot less damage while using him. He's rarely worth pulling out.

    Second: Not sure if you're doing this, but make sure you're using Bane to spread your DOTs. They're a massive part of the summoner's damage, and when you have that many enemies on you at once, you're better off trying to kill them all at once rather than take them down one by one.

    Third: Related to this, it's probably a good idea to swap from using Ruin 2 over to using Outburst as it will be able to hit all the enemies in an area at once.

    Fourth: Also on the AOE note, use your aetherflow stacks on Painflare rather than Fester in this case, again as Painflare will be able to hit all the enemies rather than just one. And to get those aetherflow stacks, same concept. Use Energy Siphon rather than Energy Drain. (Also all these AOE tips apply to any time you have 3+ enemies at once, especially for dungeon runs)

    Since you're level 55, you should focus on Ruin 3 instead of Ruin 2 once you do get them down to 2 enemies left. Don't try to kite them around or avoid damage, as a caster you really will need to just stand there and take some of the damage. And on the note of damage, by this point, you're just wasting time trying to use Physick. Most enemies will be able to do more damage to you than that can heal since its potency will not scale up with you as you level. If you find yourself needing come clutch healing, maybe trying bringing some high quality Max Potions with you (they drop plentifully in palace of the dead, and should be cheap to buy on the market board if you don't have any already) Edit : realized you're attempting a quest where you're level synced, so you can disregard the point about using Ruin 3

    Try to use your egi assault skills for when you have to move for telegraphed attacks since they're instant cast.

    Hope this helps!
