    This task begins with Sergeant Bronal Cadran in the Oceangreen Hills (1060, -785 -- at the guard tower under construction near the West Karana zone).

    Pre-Requisites for Requesting:
    - Level 65
    - No tasks

    You say, 'Hail, Sergeant Bronal Cadran'

    Sergeant Bronal Cadran glances at you briefly. 'Was there something you wanted? This has become a rather [dangerous] area and we are having trouble enough without lollygaggers like you hanging about underfoot. Make yourself [useful], before I lose my patience!'

    You say, 'Dangerous?'

    Sergeant Bronal Cadran says 'Did you walk here with your eyes closed? Have the raging animals and foul undead somehow escaped your attention? We're in the fight of our lives here and you're asking me absurd questions! If I hadn't sworn the Oath of Loyalty and Temperance to [Commander Bayle] himself, I would cuff you about the head for such idiocy.'

    You say, 'Commander Bayle?'

    Sergeant Bronal Cadran says 'Again with the stupid questions? Antonius Bayle is a great man and a great leader, and he is the only one with the strength to bring us through these hardships. He talks of building a city here in these unmerciful hills, a bastion for men to live in peace, but that will prove mighty difficult if we prove unable to defeat the blight that has fallen over this land. Now, are you going to make yourself [useful], or am I going to forcibly eject you from our encampment?'

    You say, 'Useful?'

    Sergeant Bronal Cadran grumbles quietly. 'Make it back in one piece and I might be able to scrounge up some more work for you, ______.'

    You have been assigned the task 'Man the Defenses'.

    A dangerous undead magus marshals his forces to the south. He poses an ongoing threat to the security of the construction site. He must be destroyed before his power becomes too great.



    Destroy the powerful undead magus to the south 0/1 (Oceangreen Hills)

    Near the undead camp over the hill to the Sergeant's south is Magus Wentior (respawn ~25 minutes). He hits for a max ~2,000.

    Talk to Sergeant Bronal Cadran 0/1 (Oceangreen Hills)

    You say, 'Hail, Sergeant Bronal Cadran'

    Sergeant Bronal Cadran says 'You've got some talent, I'll give you that, but it will take more than destroying that paltry bunch of bones to prove your loyalty to me!'

    Luckily, you were able to destroy the magus before he presented an insurmountable problem.

    Your faction standing with Bayle's Irregulars got better.
    Your faction standing with Residents of the Glade got better.
    Your faction standing with Oceangreen Residents got better.
    Your faction standing with Cirtan, Bayle's Herald got better.


    Rewards:
    Crest Upper Right Field Plate
    5 Chronobines
    Experience

    You are immediately offered the next task in the series, "No Cure for Death." Both tasks become repeatable after you've completed the second one.

    As of recent patch his spawn time is now about 4 minutes. The other mobs around him remain on their original timers it seems.

    77 Ranger, Average Gear for Level.

    Important to kill his buddies on the South side and pull him towards the ZL to Oceangreen Village. Easy to single pull, bet to cast a calming spell on any remaining buddies close by. You should be able to DoT and Arrow him to death by kiting him along the zone wall. If you get any adds, just snare them until the Magus is dead. Took me close to 10 minutes, but if youre alone, you can do it.
