yeah feelin pretty poo today, you can tell i just woke up from a short server-down nap.

tho i don't have a santa elf outfit hrm
 
Well I dont have any Ice Encrusted weapons, but hope I can farm this and get some upgrades. It seems even Tier 1 CoV weapons are better than Ice Encrusted, although the Ice Encrusted Tower Shield is still the best group drop Shield, not that I have ever managed to get one.
 
The CoV T3 is a nice upgrade, after this mission i got a brick off of some rando named and went and crafted

Which brick do you need for weapons, one day I will work on my trade skills, I just never seem to have the time or PP to do them, so always have to try and find someone to make my things for me.

so far the recipes appear to be a copy/pasta of ToV just with the updated mats
 
Just completed this, didnt go as well as yours, bard died instantly, idiotic song agro theyve never fixed, was all going ok till Zlandi got to 40% ish, then seemed to be random DT mechanics going off, rogue died, then tank, thankfully some how the cleric stayed up and got the tank back up.
 
Went here, popped into the missing, hailed him, said "insist" then smoked him down like a pile of rubbish.

Derail a little. Don't even know the name of the mission lol.
Tried to do another mission with the 4 crusaders. I got one down, then a second, and was farting around and didn't engage the third. So it reset the event kind of like trial of three when you don't engage fast enough.

Went again, killed 1, then a 2nd, then on the third I got an add (mezzable), the add killed the cleric. Shot out a campfire, respawned the cleric. Clicked the insignia to go to campfire - You can't campfire into the mission, but also ate my cooldown. Killed the 3rd, but didn't engage the 4th fast enough. (because only had 2 group members left lol)

At that point I decided I didn't want to screw with that mission anymore. probably the kind of mission you wanna get some upgrades before trying.

It's a bit like Seeking the sorcerer in the respects that you need to kill them back to back and DPS takes a nose dive after the first 1-2 mobs. Each crusader gets stronger than the last. you can start in any order. Don't even remember the name of the mission.

Once you hail one crusader and "insist" and fight it, the rest are now KoS (they already are, but will actually engage you)
 
I just tried the Aaryonar mission. Engaged Dragon, gets to around 50%, then does a Griklor and flys off into the air. A Golem then appears, from the corridor. DPs that down, 75% it disapears into the floor, now im not sure what mechanic kicks off here, but AE or Dot may have gone off, survived this one though.
Golem reappears, dps down again, he goes back into floor, then I saw emote flash on screen of something happening and big AoE/DT went off, cleric didint heal through it, then 4 elemental type mobs appeared from corridor and moved into zone, Golem then respawned again, but group was all low on hp then wipe.
You can not campfire back in to group missions it seems, as ive just had to summon all to GL.
 
Looks like this mission is geared towards the average group players. I guess this is a good thing for EQ. I wish they had a hard mode with maybe more or better loot for the above average group players.
 
I just did this. They are going to nerf this so bad. Get it while you can.
 
Yeah Beserkers are like that. Debating adding a second one to my group or a Rogue to replace a merc. Kinda would like to have rogue sneak/hide abilities sometimes but two beserkers is awesome.
 
30% second try, 2 adds came in about same time ultimate stand faded. second beserker would have done the trick. and maybe knowing any of the tricks of the encounter, i just face tanked and burned everyone. Also switch to the cwtn plugin for my beserker as he didn't do nearly the dps i expected.

for zlandicar what was the winning grp make up , can the adds (orbs) be mezzed?
 
There are adds? Haven't seen any yet. Anyways I did it twice yesterday and have a tip for after the fight. I had zero crystalized restless ore drop BUT both times that ore dropped off of trash mobs I killed after the event. Only off the puddle type mobs and only after the event and before you get kicked from the zone. You have about half an hour or so. I got 2 both times that way. 3 hours of killing before doing the event yielded zero. Mobs respawn so just run back and forth. Plus I'm thinking the collections drops will sell well. This is what I am referring to when I said it will be nerfed. The respawn and the ice drops off trash. I doubt they will make it harder as my SK has gotten smacked into the 20 percent or less health range a few times but who knows.
 
sorry not zlandicar the one w the earth golem (Aaryonar)
also btw for the call (vulaak i think) those items u get, u click on self and they block something
sic showed on his video that he didnt know what to do w em (target self, and click em, (when maybe when mob goes untargettable?)
if anyone has any info on skyshrine it would be nice, havent tried it yet :)

Have you tried just killing the trash without doing the mission? Just skipping the mission and going straight for the trash stuff?
 
Oh wait, you said you did it, but nothing dropped before the mission. Not even collects?
 
Collects drop and I just tried trash before the mission and got ore to drop. I have 9 of them now on my tank. Collects have the worst drop rate Ihave ever seen for collects. Ore still only drops off the puddles. I must have been unlucky that other trial.
 
Theyve stealth nerfed the drop rate of crystallised restless ore on WW mobs, I was getting 3-5 an hour yesterday, so far today 2 in 3 hours.

Same for this mission. It may have gone to zero now, or very well close to zero. :( The change came when they fixed the items no longer stacking upon loot bug.
 
Another thing I noticed after the "fix" is that many mobs now drop nothing. A pretty high percentage drop nothing now. Every mob before the change dropped at least 1 item. Didn't last long.
 
I think you are right, I went into Zlandicar when they were "working" on the stacking fix. Got 3 ore in 15 minutes and nothing in last couple hours!

I have a second zerk and honestly I prefer zerk + rogue. My rogue is only a touch under the zerker and the utility makes up for the dps loss.
 
What range of combined DPS would you recommend having before trying this?

good question - you can definitely "slow roll" him and turn off all your burns to save for another mission and still win without messing with any of the script, so i don't suspect many groups would have problems
 
Has anyone done this since the last patch? I gave it a try twice tonight.. Both times I get zland to 4% and nothing happens..

I tried turning off melee and hailing..
Tried just standing there letting my cleric keep me up with heals without attacking for a while

Nothing..
