Those 2 missions are really easy, IMO.
Enchant your weapons for Fire elementals and you'll do way more damage, since most of the monsters in the Theater mission are Ice-based.
And since you're a Range Elf, you can shoot from a distance and do more damage and stay safe (hopefully).
Good luck!

Maybe. Just keep on trying.
Perhaps get a stronger party to complete the mission quickly or be more careful.

Elves do horrible damage and miss far more at a distance, since they're specialists in close quarters archery (melee with bows).
Best way to do TMs as an elf, it's to enchant yourself with fire elementals... then spam Crash Shot at point blank. If you miss, windmill and use pets/teammates, but you won't miss at zero shot range. Have a pet out to draw aggro if necessary, but ideally you just don't want to get hit while wearing fire elementals so it's important to kill everything before it gets a chance to move. Flame Burst also helps, if you have it decently ranked.
Here's an example of how to deal with TMs as a ranged elf:

I can load and aim both Ranged Attack and Magnum during the Crash Shot animation. Might be lag or something else on your end?

Hardmore missions I just stay out of aggro and spam crash shot with a full fire element set (HM King request). Pretty much death with crash shot and no aggro, magnum > Ar to finish of the rest. As for Golem, Mag + Pet Firebolt AI spam = death.
I can also just use my Broads with complete fire set and own with epic crits of doom. Campfire is also an option for Golem.
