65 mage, 65 enchanter

Killed blood spear, all cool, 3 mobs pop on platform. Pac and pull, killed them all no problem. Upon death of 3rd mob ...

group of mobs spawn on platform and you get your text of "So and so Arise" We tried pac'n two mobs and pulling the side, but stil ended up with the whole group coming down in short order. Strung them all out while running to the Torigan zone and mezzing them. Zoned out. Zoned back in, mobs all lined up for us to kill nicely. Took them all down no problems...

Another bigger group of mobs spawn on platform. YEE HAAA !!! We dont even try pacifying these, I just pull with my pet and we string them out to the zone line again mezzing and rooting as we go trying to space them out. Zone out, Zone in, does this sound familiar? Well we had a full re pop of all the greens on the path to the temple by the time we finally killed all the Platform Pops. While we were quikly clearing these I was peeking at "the Wretched" he was much larger then his surounding mobs and standing in the middle of the platform. Did I mention it was 30 minutes before the server goes down for a patch ? we go up to kill the last green in the way b4 pulling him and OMFG !! he despawns !! So, be aware, he is on a timer. 1 minute faster we would have had him. /sigh

Couple notes. when you zone out, all the normal mobs in this area go back to thier positions, all the special mobs that spawn from the event do not. the Event mobs also seem to have a wierd way of aggroing. they might be content to hang out and watch thier friend, Jim-Bob the troll, fight you for a while, then they will make up thier minds to aggro and join in the fray from quite a distance away. If I had it to do all over again, I would have ran inside through all the greens, stuck my pet on "The wretched" and dragged him back to the zone, zoned out, and waited a sec for all the greens to reset and then zoned back in for the real fight. This I will try next time. Even doing it the normal way we were able to Duo it to within a minute or two of his despawn timer.

Hope this is helpfull as we couldnt really find any strategy for this event when we were looking.

how do you get this guy to spawn?

Myself (57 BST), two NECs, one MAG, one SK and a DRU were in the shrine area, we entered and the MAG single pulled all the mobs (shrine bruisers and initiates) one by one until seemingly at random Bloodspear spawned with his untargetable guards around him.

We pulled Bloodspear, and killed him fast (light blue to me), no corpse on Bloodspear, and immediately afterwards two "Cathedral Protectors" (or something like that) and a mob something like "A Spiritist Guardian" but I'm not sure, it was spirit something, didn't get a screenshot.

Anyway, after we killed off those 3 (we pulled to the outer area to kite around w/ pets because they couldnt be single pulled), we went back in and there were about.... 10-15 more mobs on the platform surrounding Lokfan. They were a mix of shrine bruisers and the Cathedral Protectors and Lokfan was still untargetable.

I'd assume you'd have to wipe out those guys and then kill Lokfan, but it was way too many in one compact area for a single group to take.

I have had him pop a few times after killing the high priest and other mobs in the shrine. At that point I was not able to target him. What do I need to do? Is there another mob I need to kill first? If so, which one? Any help would be appreciated.
