Finally, after many years, I completed this awesome quest. The final mob I needed was the Txevu boss. It was one of the gratifying kills of my long EQ career.

Personally, I wish that every expansion had a quest with as much depth, complexity and heart as this quest.

This quest is now actually a nice diversion from constant raiding for those folks in higher end guilds. If you have a few close game friends who have similar play times as you, a couple or three weeks of cooperative work can produce the end aug for all of you. Even the raid mobs can be done with just a few friends. Inktu'ta though, with the advent of the multitude of DT mobs in the penultimate event may take three solid groups to get by. If you can box a rogue or bard in some of the last four events, especially to open jail doors and move safely through the zones, it also makes life easier. The final stats are worth the time, and the cameraderie can be priceless. Give it a shot if you have some time and some good friends.

Finally finished the Breakdown in Communication quest this Saturday night after plowing through both Txevu and Tacvi.
I had such a blast doing it too, and so much help from my guild, alliance, and the entire Stromm server.

It was well worth the effort.
