Ziglark Whisperwing  

i jus killed him he dropped the key,didnt have 2 do the quest

If your a 60+ Enchanter and have DC and good faction with cov then this should be easy.
Step1: Cover yourself in any kind of rune.
Step2: Pacify all mobs in room except golem.
Step3: Dc the golem and drag him in the short hallway between ziglark and the chrom drake and tell him to gaurd.
Step4: Pacify all mobs in room except ziglark.
Step5: Pull ziglark with a slow and drag to hallway.
Step6: Let ziglark hit you so golem can attack. Nuke ziglark with the best nuke spell you have.(I recomend the 64 nuke). He might heal himself but only in half, just keep nukin him until he dies.The key is yours. Was still ally with cov

I tried to get this quest back when my Ranger was around 30ish. After being likened to a talking pile of refuse, having dubious faction, I decided to try and pull him in the hall and beat the key out of him. Being he was only 27 (yeah right!) I figured it would not be an impossible task, and many had gone before me. I soon realized there was no way in the Gates of He……Discord this guy was 27, and with his 4 friends in the room to follow behind him to finish cleaning the floor with me, I had best claim my body and forget about it.

While preparing my now 51 Ranger for his 6th Prayer Shawl quest I soon realized I now truly had a need for this key. Having killed many a Frost Giant I figured I’d try it the difficult yet satisfying way and do the quest. Sadly Zig, now 45 (I’ll buy that), still thinks of me as a talking pile of refuse (Still Dubious), so much for Mr. Nice Guy! Waited for the Sentry to make his round, cast Harmony of Nature on Zigs room full of friends, Ensnared Zig to get his attention and then back peddle into the hallway. He did not put up much of a fight and, now in my old shoes, he started trying to heal himself. His weak attempts to heal were to no avail. WHO’S A PILE OF REFUSE NOW ZIG? Even this way proved satisfying! Got my key, still dubious and was happy to find Wolf Form welcome in this zone! Now off to get me some Siren Hair.

he was light blue to a 55 bst... i dont think hes 50

I'm a 62 necro and he was a easy kill. Pulled him back up in the hallway that comes into the room and DoTed him down.
Didn't get any adds pulling him at this level.
Was indifferent before and after the fight.

Followed Boloc's directions to Ziglark. Conned green to a 63. Did not hit overly hard (20-80 range). He was a paladin and LoHed himself. The mobs around him will NOT aggro if you take him in the room he is in(~IF~ you are non-kos). But the room he is in and the one next to it can have healers in them so I pulled him out into the hallway near the CS port. In the hallway wandering patrollers will not aggro as you kill him (again~IF~ you are non-kos). Once in the hall he will get off a few low heals but the fight goes quickly.

It was a long road to go from threateningly to dubious. I would kill a few giants in WL or KD, run back to SS and check, over and over for days. Then on the last try i killed maybe 3 or 4 giants then went to SS and saw I was dubious, so I know i just barely reached dubious. Soloed Ziggy and i was still dubious, so the faction hit cant be too bad. Im a 54 ranger, i just waited for the patroller to leave the room and go way down the hall and out of the way, then when it was clear I pulled Zig down that same hallway and killed him. Hes a healer so I found it was best to melee him. I started out by rooting then casted DoTs on him, but he kept healing himself, so i went in for the kill, he was light blue and fairly easy, I lost about 30% health. No adds.

I just maxed out my CoV faction. How much of a faction hit will I take if I kill this guy and get the key? Does he drop the key EVERY time? By the way.. I'm a level 57 Paladin and this guy cons LIGHT BLUE to me! So him being level 27 CAN'T be right.

Hey if he is lvl 27 how come he hits so hard????

A rogue using sneak can do this quest with one other person, very simply. The key is the other person has to be non-KOS in Kael.

1. Get the quest from Ziglark. If you don't have at least indifferent faction, sneak behind him. I did and it works like a charm.

2. Go to Kael and find Wenglawks. Bring a friend who is non-KOS in Kael. Sneak/hide behind Wenglawks and have your friend stand behind Noble Helssen and hail him. Helssen will turn around so now you can hand in your items without Helseen aggroing (since you have sneak up). Hand in the items and rehide.

3. Go back to Skyshrine and turn the note in to Ziglark. Remember to sneak if your faction isn't high enough.

Voila, a shrine key!

To get to Ziglark, just go in until you pass the first gate, then make a right turn and the T in the path. Then follow the stairs up and go left again. He should be in a room with a Gargoyle Guard and in the room next to him is Sentry Emil. What my group did to get the key was this: Our Druid went back outside into Wakening Lands to cast SoW. Then she came back inside and invis-ed while Enchanter in the group cast Rune III on her, then she ran up to Ziglark and smacked him. She then trained everything to the zone. The Enchanter also invis-ed and ran up to Ziglark and targeted him. He then ran back to the zone line and waited there. As soon as Ziglark was close enough, he mezzed him and zoned out with the Druid. I (Warrior) stayed behind while invis and waited until the guards went back to their posts, while Ziglark stood there mezzed. Once it was safe, I told them to zone back in and we nailed him without getting hit by the Skyshrine Guards. Our Druid was Dubious faction, the Enchanter and myself were very KOS, so before the fight was over, the Chanter Mem Blurred Ziglark to save the Druid's faction. I hope that gives someone a good idea for how to get the key. Good luck! =)

Go in with a druid / wizard.

Hand Wengleawks the pp (Exact amount - have it ready as in dont carry 789 pp and try and use scroll bar) and item from Dragon. He will return the proper items regardless of your faction. (I am DEEP KOS to KD and got the Bracer of Hammerfall)

Friend begins casting gate as soon as you hand items.

I adivse buying two emergency Inviso potions from Thurgadin (10 pp 5 gold ea) in case spell Invisiblity wears off.

Good Luck, Have Fun

I never killed anything inside SS and the surrounding Zones except a named Wywern in CS.I'm a Necro following Bertox.Where can i check my Faction to see if i can walk into SS to get the Quest from Whisperwing without getting aggroed by everything???If i can get the Quest from him,means that i can walk around freely in SS or are there different Faction Groups or Mobs that aggro on everybody????In Case i cant get the Quest what can i do,what Mobs i must kill in Order to raise the Faction with SS/Whisperwing high enough to get the Quest???? Tkz a Lot for the Help:-)

When entering Skyshrine from Waking Lands, just go between the two sentries at the gate, pass through the gate and come to a T intersection. Take a right, you will climb some stairs and see a Sentry alone in a room. To your left is an adjacent room that has a guardian and Ziglark. He's pretty easy to find, and be warned as you come in, alot of druids or necros that can't solo the 3 at once will train them to the zone and root ziglark to dispatch him alone. Most of the time they'll call the train, but sometimes they dont.
