I'm assuming that Tirial needs to continue to hold the rope for the benefits to apply?[/sblock]

Not necessarily. Knoepf should make the rolls in a single Move Action (72% chance), so he could take over holding the rope if Hasifar doesn't make all of the rolls.
So if Hasifar makes all of his rolls (37% chance of that happening), or if Knoepf makes his 2 rolls and then takes over rope duty, Tirial could then on her next action get back into the fight and she would have only been on rope duty for one round.
If neither of these happen, then yes, Tirial would need to continue to hold the rope for the +5 to continue.
Course, we haven't heard from VV in over a week, so I'm not sure what he wants Hasifar to do. He might not even want to climb the rope for all I know.
