So how do I request the Cursed Guk and Lower Guk group missions? When I try to request them from old man mckenzie I don't get the option of them, just the lady vox and naggy raids. What is the dialoge to get them, I haven't been able to find it on here anywhere.

how the raids were soloed

NewbishTroll

143 posts

back in 2009 there were TWO seperate and completely different exploits that allowed all 5 of the old man instances to be soloed. One of them was the bugged harmtouch on shadowknight shrouds, but I assume that method was well known so I won't go into detail there.

I am going to detail the other, lesser known, exploit. I'm only posting these details for curious people to read. The exploits below no longer work. If this kind of stuff interests you I wrote up similar posts under jaled dar's sacrifice and rallos returns (hard) on this website. Those exploits also no longer work.

If you've done any of these old man missions you should be aware how you pick your class for the mission. There used to be a bug where if you picked your class at the split second before you camped your character (approx at 29.75 seconds of the 30 seconds it takes to camp) the game will think you have picked a class, but in reality you have not. the game then lets you zone into the instance as your main character.

so being level 85 in these missions where you play as level 50s is an obviously huge advantage. Any loot you looted would stay on your character when you left the instance, too. you could easily farm old school cloaks of flame and all those old dragon loots if you wanted to. for whatever reason, vox and nagafen do not banish people over level 55 in these instances.

this worked for the 2 raids and all 3 of the group missions. you could have the missions done in minutes and collect all your brews and loots with zero effort.

but like i said, this was fixed, so don't bother trying it now.

Do the missions he is offering. There are 3 group mission (at least 3 ppl.), and after completing each one, you open up more items to buy from him.
There are also 2 raid mission that will open up even more items - but you need flag to be able to do these. (Solteris and others).

Class bias?

Er, looks like monks and BL's come up short in the Old Man's weapon itemization here. Other classes seem to get more. There is no 2hb at all, and the only 1-hander has a worse ratio than bazaar buyable weps.

as usual if your not in a big raiding guild / or happen to have taken any time off / getting the SEVEN raid flags to be able to buy the good items is STUPID.
There needs (as usual) to be ANOTHER way to get a similar flag = so that you can join in on the raid MM's and buy the better items

Dont suppose SOE will think of this thou

No, its a good choice by SOE. Those who raid have to get flags to get content. This gear is as good as Korafax raid gear and should not be in the hand of groupers. If you want the good stuff, then join a guild and get the flags its not that hard but I know guilds like mine only take solid players.

So let's just ruin the game for the individual players who actually take the time to do something. I don't feel like doing this quest, so because I don't raid full time or took 2 years off, Sony should just give these rewards to me. Oh wait a minute, while we are at it, the top guild on my server is already raiding, Underfoot, I am not a full time raider so I should just get the loot from the Underfoot expansion. That's a crock.

I took over 2 yrs off, came back 2 years ago this coming april, Sony doesn't owe me a thing. Every thing I have, AA's, gear, knowledge of the game, I have workd my butt off for over that last 2 years. And though I may belong to a higher end raiding guild, I didn't get given access to zones or loot just because I was a member of the guild or I took time off, I had to go back and do the pre-flagging to be able to raid with my guild. For the first few months I was back I didnt even group with guild mates much, till I got my lvls and gear back up to par for the zones they were in. Yes it was a pain in the butt at times, but I am much better off for it.

A little piece of advice, instead of whining about what someone else owes you, get up off your butts and do something about it. Form a coalition on your server that draws ppl together to raid some of these lower zones. Something like RoS on Poavr. People can bring whatever toons they want to the raids, so there is one flagging opetion. But then again that would require effort on someones part again. OK, /rant off

you can buy the better items without flags.

Lots of people walking around with full omm raid items having never done a single raid.

Plus they used a currency dupping item so it only took them an hour to do this.

Sony suspended a couple of them but most are still just fine and have all their stuff and they dont even care about it. they fixed the currency dup not the buying without raids.

Actually you can get around the requirement of the raid flags, as well as duplicate the old man brews, or any other currency.

Lots of people on all servers got full raid geared in a hour or so.

Hello. I just checked out the items available on the old man, but for some reason he is only showing items that are in the 6-10 brews range, and 42+ brews; he is not showing any of the 14-21 brews items as purchasable.

I have completed the Nagafen and Vox raid tasks, but haven't done any of the group missions yet... Does anyonw know the requirements to get the 14-21 brew items to appear?

I'm fairly new at how this NPC works and what is needed for the items to show (I rarely do monster missions, sorry).

If you're using Internet Explorer, you can hit the control key + the F key. (CTRL F.)

This brings up the find feature. A small box will appear in the left hand top corner of your browser with the word "Find" next to it.

Type in the number 14. All the items that cost 14 brews will be highlighted, in yellow.

You can also scroll down this page, where someone has listed them all according to how much they cost.

You will now have to impress Old Man McKenzie with your accomplishments before he will allow you to start a Nagafen or Vox raid or see items that come from them. People who have completed more than seven raids from Solteris, Meldrath's Mansion, Crystallos, or all but the first tier of Seeds of Destruction raids will impress him. You must request a Nagafen or Vox raid from him or attempt to join one in progress for him to check your accomplishments and allow you to see the raid items.

The only items worth getting are the raid class ones. So just duo them with enchanter/wiz or enchanter/mage (crowd control with the enchanter and dps with mage or wiz). Here is the math to this method of accruing Brews (points to spend)
with 6 missions every 2 days you acquire 3 drops (alternating loots with your partner) to trade to Old Man McKenzie, this equals a minimum of 15 points. Some have a trade in value of 10. Add in 6 group tasks for an additional 6 points, and that is 63 points every 6 days. That will get you one raid class item each week. you're wasting your time to do these any other way. It might go a bit slower with just 2 in your group, but the goal is the gear isn't it?

me and another have been duoing as a necro/ench and it works very well for sol b and live guk. For undead we do clr nec which is a lot better. Normal times is about 30-35min for undead guk 40-45 for live guk and 60-70min for sol b. You just need to know how to play the characters and it is very easy.

It is required to have an average lvl requirement of 80. We had two lvl 79s two lvl 80s and a lvl 81 and couldnt request. I turned in quests and leveled to 81 and we could request so it is a minimum of average 80. As for exp i got roughly 9% at lvl 80 and 8% at lvl 81. Experience may also be doubled using Lesson which if you turn in all 3 at once is half a lvl at 81. The experience and reqards for this make these missions very good. The only problem is the requirement of lvl 85 on all items. I am on Mayong and although almost all of the guild im in is above 80 only about 25% of us are 85.

Oh and other note these can be duoed. Have done it with a cleric/necro combo and ench/necro combo.

Regarding minimum level, I've been doing these at L75 with no problem, and we had someone of L73 with us yesterday. The loot comes from these missions is all AFAIK req. L85 so it's not immediately useful at my level, though it's nice to have upgrades waiting in the bank. While I understand completion gets about 2-2.5 AA at L85, at L75 I'm getting 9AA (100% xp to AA) per mission.

The level range limit does appear to cause a problem if you want to task add someone while you're inside the instance - if they're L85 and you're all (temporarily) L50 they cannot be added - you have to zone out. (I'd call this a bug)

His list of gear is unlocked after you've done one mission (though you will need more missions to have enough brews to buy anything)
He sells the following for 21 brews:
Red Dragon Tooth
Staff of Writhing
Djarn's Amethyst Ring
Cloak of Shadows
Carnal Pauldrons
Petrified Erudite Heart Amulet
Dragonbone Loop
Shield of the Slain Unicorn
Fleshripper
Painbringer

for 14 brews:
Gold Plated Koshigatana
Bladestopper
Rokyl's Channelling Crystal
Polished Mithril Mask
Blight, Hammer of the Scourge
Razing Sword of Skarlon
Countersprung Enhancificator
Nagafen's Eye
Selo's Drums of the March
Hierophant Cloak
Plasmatic Firestaff
Orb of Tishan
Fist of Lava

and for 6 brews:
Large Soiled Bag

These are all the L85 req decent stat versions based on their old-world namesakes. It seems that the group missions will yield one of these items, and the raid missions two, from the chest at the end. If it's not needed by anyone it can be randomed for and traded back to Old Man McKenzie for 5 brews.

I'm doing this very successfully with a monk / warrior / cleric combo, but am struggling to find the guano harvester. Anyone know where he is at? I know he's invis and supposed to be by sol C, but I went there and he was no where to be found. I even cast a buncha pb aoes to try to fish him out and got nothing.

Another way to do it, if you know where he roams, is to sit down around there. Many years ago, I recall a dev saying what sitting down does is basically make monsters see you as level 1. This is why newbie mobs that don't normally attack you but con scowls will attack you if you sit down next to them. The guano harvester is grey to a lvl 50, but he cons scowls, so sitting should theoretically work. I haven't tried it myself though.

Contrary to what the folks above said you don't need a class that can see invis to do this step.

Your cleric can cast earthquake, for example, in the room just to the right of the first bat-occupied room. It is quite easy to time it, as you can hear the goblin walking through the room if you have sounds on and your groupmates and yourself aren't moving.

Also note that Guano Harvester is very low level and will not just agro on your group wandering around. See Invis is essential in this task.

Just pick a chanter, they are great in all these missions. (IMO)

you will never find him with that groups class make-up. the harvester is invisible..... see invis is your friend. he paths from the sol A zone line down to the old bat cave. if you are down near the lava path in the sonic bat area you will see him, but only if you use see invis =)

Just did the Sol B task, more notes.

If you die, you can either hover and wait for rez, or you can return to yourself standing next to the Old Man, in which case saying Story again puts you back inside at the zone in, with full HP and 20% mana. Depending on where group is, this might be better than taking rez.

Rez takes a LOT of mana at that level.

Getting to the final mob requires crossing the lava stream. Raising fire resists reduces the damage you take, but better is levitate.

Invis works fairly well for skipping mobs... and you get no exp for killing so skip all you can. Sonic Bats SI though, so you need to deal with those.

The rogue has a snare proccing weapon, if its not critical he snare mobs, then its better to swap in his fork or something, because that snare proc is high aggro and your tanks don't have very good aggro tools (even the SK)

Once you've done the task, you can see some items you can buy, for 14 or 21 brews. At 1 brew per task, this is a lot of work.

One item spawns in the chest after the final kill, its one of the items on the buy list, so if someone wants it that saves them 21 brews...but if nobody will use, you can also sell it for 5 brews to the Old Man, which would speed thigns up.

I would actually recommend against using the warrior for these classic missions. A Paladin or SK can tank just aswell and in my experience holds onto aggro a bit better.

I would also say an Enchanter is essential.

Caster DPS doesn't seem to be brilliant if you want to move through the tasks fairly quickly i'd recommend sticking to melee.

Also bards aren't up to much as you can't use /melody due to the shrouding ability method of using spells.

My rec. group ;

Pally/SK (Pref. Pally, for the backup rez, just makes it easier)
Cleric
Enchanter
Monk
Rogue
Shaman

You could swap out the Rogue or Monk for a Ranger to use track if you are unsure of mob locations.

I've been 3 boxing this one since it went live and some things I've observed. Don't bother playing the SK or Paly (is there a thing such as negative dps?) they take a considerable amount more healing than the warrior and are half the dps, which makes the melee encounters way longer than they need to be. I typically use the warrior / cleric / mage. The warrior can easily tank 4 or 5 mobs at once without running the cleric oom in a very short time. His dps is enhanced with the mage's DS and since he is an ogre, does not have to worry with frontal stuns. The mage's pet is decent dps and her nukes are about 80% of the zone trash's hps unresisted, plus you will need the See Invis for the Harvester part of the mission. I also like to use the eye of zomm to acquire targets in the King / Priest area so the cleric can Pacify the mobs for an easy split. The best group make-up I have used for a 6 person group was: warrior / cleric / chanter / mage / ranger / wizard. We simply destroyed the mission in record time =)

ok, let me start this off, so some people can get a view into the Lguk task.

With a full group you enter Lguk, as monster availability you can choose one of each class. only --> 1 <--.

The quest is simple, you kill various nameds. i do not recall this list off the top of my head. but as the final mob is the froglok king.

When the froglok king is dead there will spawn a chest behind him. with an appropiate item.

As for the Quest reward you can access it by clicking your "EQ" button, choose "Quests" and "Rewards".

EQ --> Quests --> Rewards.

NOTE: this is a short recap of information useful for the instance, and what i've observed only through the role as warrior.
-------------------------------

Class information, what i know now:

The warrior, equipped with 2x Ancient short sword of Ykeshia, hits for a whopping 15-25 on each hit -- NO monster points to delegate. (no AA's)

Inventory stock:

Quiver and arrows,
a backpack with, food / water and bandages.

-------------------------------
The Cleric, cannot any heavy beating. little mana pool, has complete heal. cannot cast invisi, nukes in the 300's. Yes you can REZ. buffs: Valor

The Mage, nukes for 800's, and has an air elemental pet that hits for 50's.
buffs: Damage shield.

The Wizard, also nukes for 800ish, also has root.

Chanter, mez (this will drain mana fast) has invisi.
buffs: clarity

Ranger, has snare, makes a good offtank.
spells: Snare, dots
buffs: strength

Pally, decent damage, makes a good offtank, has lay on hands and can do some healing.
spells: stun
buffs: don't recall.

shammy, pet & some usual buffs + dots

---------------------------------------------
Quick general information, casters do HAVE monster points (AA's)

---------------------------------------------

one tip, there are no required mobs to kill IN the undead section, but some on the way there. save some time :D

alot down towards the castle section South east where the froglok king is located.

my tip for a group:

warrior
cleric
mage
ranger(snare)
druid(snare)

snare is very important cause you WILL have runners.

the rest is up to the group according to what they prefer. but damage is always an option ;) or chanter for mez

so 2nd. recommendations: Wizard , Enchanter.

---------------------------------------
Hope this information was useful :D
