I do this mission with 2 warriors and 1 mage. Both warriors go to Calisar and say 'more' and he gives you 4x dampening stone. Both warriors zone in with mage just behind them, making sure to invis the MOMENT we zone in (there are 2 pathers on the living bridge and 1 walks all the way to Sintal). If 1 of the pathers see invis... just save yourself some time and a headache and restart the mission. each warrior will go into the tower and hug the walls looking for the Ritualist guarding the Summoning Altar. Once we have dampening stone on cursor, signal the mage to start CoH, then charge the summoning altar and hit Evasive disc... hand dampening stone to altar and hit give. As SOON as you are summoned, target Sintal and say 'Leave'. CoH does NOT always wipe agro, and buggy warping can get REAL ugly.
It is always a good idea to have the mage zone in behind tank (get the amount of time it takes to zone figured out and make sure tank zones in a couple seconds before mage). If you zone in and the pather is on top of you, just train him to the opposite end of bridge, by that time mage should be in the zone and CoH you. If you see the "low chanting" emote, which means Summoned Minion has spawned, zone asap. This will stop him in his tracks instead of attacking you at zone in and becoming a pest. Training the minions and ritualists to the opposite end of bridge and CoH is a good method to get the minions and ritualists OUT of your way, because they will not path back.
It also helps to be buffed up good and have healers outside instance (in stoneroot) to heal you after training.

This task begins with Calisar in the Stoneroot Falls. He is located at 845, -1800, 8.
For your map file: P 1800.0988, -845.6822, 5.3302, 0, 0, 0, 2, Calisar You say, 'Hail, Calisar' Calisar says 'Were you sent by the priests?' he glares suspiciously at you, 'I think not, but no matter. I have important work to do and you look like the sort of person I wouldn't feel bad about sacrif. . .having help in my [work].' You say, 'What work?' Calisar says 'Our priests have been developing a magical dampening stone designed to weaken the spells and enchantments used by the drachnids. Unfortunately these stones are currently only effective if they can be placed at the [source] of the drachnid magic.' You say, 'Where is the source?' Calisar says 'The stones that I have at the moment need to be placed in the summoning altars of the drachnids. Those altars are used to summon the throngs of expendable drachnids that are sent into battle as fodder. If we can weaken those forces enough, the drachnids may have to rethink their tactics. If you think you could [accomplish] this, I'll give you a few stones to plant.' You say, 'I think I can accomplish this.' Calisar says 'I can give you four dampening stones to start with. Make sure you get them placed correctly. If you lose any let me know and I'll see if I can find [more] for you.' 4 x A Dampening Stone appear on your cursor, and a task window appears: Speak with Sintal nearby. He should have a bit more information for you regarding the summoning altars, and may be able to help you sneak into the Hive. There are three versions of this task: Low-level (for those 67 and below), normal and hard. The only difference between them is the quality of loot and difficulty of mobs. (Task steps needed.) Speak with Sintal to enter the instance. He is found at location 750, -1650, 8. For map file: P 1650.3219, -749.9072, 8.2975, 0, 0, 0, 2, Sintal You say, 'Hail, Sintal' Sintal says 'Hmph, Calisar said he was sending help, but I didn't think he'd send one of your ilk. Very well then, let us get down to business. The summoning altars are rumored to be kept in the four sections of the hive buried in the cavern wall. You would do well to start your search there. I can help you [enter] the hive, but I must not be revealed to the drachnids.' Your task 'Sabotage!' has been updated. You say, 'Help us enter' Sintal says 'I have been able to develop a teleportation spell that allows me to reach the bridges outside the cavern wall of the hive. I can take you each up there individually and help you return again once you've completed your work. Let me know when you are each [ready] and I will transport you.' You say, 'We are ready' Sintal says 'Keep your guard up when you arrive. You never know what could be waiting for you there.' LOADING, PLEASE WAIT... You have entered The Hive. Find Sintal inside The Hive. You say, 'Hail, Sintal' Sintal says 'Ready to run away, eh? Well I can't say that I'm surprised. I don't think anyone deserves to be captured by the drachnids so I can help you [leave] whenever you're ready.' During the mission you will see the following emote every 2-3 minutes: A low chanting can be heard for just a moment before suddenly going silent. When this emote goes off, a summoned minion spawns on top of one of the four altars. Undead minions may also spawn, and see invisibility. Drachnid Ritualists guard each of the altars. Place the four stones on the four altars (locations and descriptions needed) and find Sintal again.. You say, 'Hail, Sintal' Sintal says 'All done are you? I must admit to being impressed. I had expected the drachnids to truss you up quickly and use you as breeding fodder. At any rate thank you for your help with this, there should be a drastic effect on the drachnid armies because of this. Here's payment for your services, take it and let me know when you're ready and I'll take you all [out of here].' You say, 'Get us out of here' Your task 'Sabotage!' has been updated. Excellent work, I've already heard reports about the drachnid forces being less effective. Hopefully we can use this opportunity to begin rebuilding the Shiliskin Empire once again. You gain experience!! A chest spawns with loot after you hail Sintal. Loot from this task: Automatic Rewards Normal (low level) - Melee: ? ? ?
