I've failed it twise now for one simple reason: Seduce arms
Here's how I do it (tell me if I do something wrong):
A) I kill the tail and legs sitting at the middle of HT at the bottom.
B) After tail and legs my plan is to kill everything except the left arm that I would leave there when I afk that 30 mins to get drops.
The problem is that Beyond Blade hits the arms too. The arm(s) then cast seduce and my character walks into the rocks that deal hard dmg and I die.
It's extremely extremely frustrating... I could kill HT in few minutes, but I feel helpless against the seduce.

Resistace helps, but how low is your HP really? The rocks used to be a life saver for some warrior pals back in the day.
One thing you could do is to make sure the bottom is full of Cornians and refrain from activating body pressure (or what ever the counter skill is called). A cornian hit is better than a rock hit by far.

I do the same as above (keep the cornians alive so that they hit you instead of rocks)
You could also
-level up Hero's Will if you haven't already
-Use resistance potions
-Bring Cleansing potions (I believe these are the ones that fix seduce)
-I've been told holding down certain keys make you lag so hard that you don't take damage. Pretty sure it's either alt+tab and/or quest hotkey.
-Consider getting or borrowing Decent HB
-Raise willpower, use demon slayer card, etc to raise resistance.
-Consider getting -abnormal status from either empress set, potential, or nebulites.

Hitting the arms isn't what gets you seduced. You will get seduced regardless if you are in sed range. The arms seduce the entire map if their seduce cooldown is up and at least 1 char is in range.

I had the same problem on my Aran, but I only tried once. I think I only died because my Aran was partially stripped and I didn't use an HP potion when I could because I didn't expect to get chain seduced, though. I would just try to kill one or two of the arms as quickly as possible, depending on whether you'd rather sit around being seduced or sit around getting hit by the main head for the remainder of the timer.

If you want to "cheat," you can always use the alt enter trick - holding down alt enter for a good 15 flashes after you see the "you have been..." message for invincibility.
If you don't want to do that, you can just get max hero's will, and some cleansing potions (still have a cooldown of 5 minutes) and ONLY use them if you're really about to die. Raising personality and other traits to get resistance is a good idea as well.
Personally, I like invincibility potential/nebulites the best though. great for training, great for bossing. but pineapple super KB.
