The Defense of Lendiniara  

Im not seeing any burning prisons, but some one of them (doing death is your forte) is casting feign death.

It's all about crowd control. I intercepted the nameds in the middle of the platform (short distance ahead of the dragon) and let the guards continue to the dragon. Then aoe-mez the guards, just to help out Lady L. Even if the mez doesn't land on all of them she's perfectly capable of tanking and killing 1 or 2 guards at a time. (Probably more than that, but I didn't want to push my luck!)

Kill the nameds one by one, then finish off the guards.

The Commander's max hit was 16804 on a 105 warrior with 12k AC and 9000AA's. Not very tough. As far I can tell he never memblurred himself and stayed on our tank the whole time.

I was doing this with solid level 100 very solid semi-raid geared tank, and a group geared necro, and cleric. Plus mercs of course. Easy to get through the first three, but we were failing on the Commander, getting far too many qeynos guards. Got a chanter to join us and the mission suddenly became very easy.

I've not had any problems with the mission --- but any insight on winning 'quick death'? Basically all 4 at once.

So to start out on this mission i set up group on what would be the ramp to Dead Hills. The first two named are easy and you don't need to worry about them too much. For the 3rd named, i single pull him away from the adds and let the 4 adds go dps the dragon. If you do enough dps to Lieutenant then no other adds will spawn so i recommend to burn all out on him. Commander spawns after Lieutenant's death and i pull him to the group. At this point you will need to kill commander before the adds kill the dragon, which can be done with a decent amount of dps. After commander dies clean up the 4 adds that are on dragon and you win.

SoE should be worries about making mission easier and not to keep nerfing quest to make the quest impossible. this particular task was ok until soe nerfed the dragon. Now the dragon is not assisting. So if before this task was hard, now is impossible.

tried petitioning this but was just told it has been beaten by others so learn the stats

I just ran thru it with the same crew makeup to see what would happen and had two waves of adds spawn once on the Lieutenant. First wave of adds was the four, two down each ramp but then we had another add of 2....they took out the 2 merc nukers straight away then the merc healer... I don't think without a bard or enchanter from what Ive just seen this can be done. Ill try it a few more times but just dont think its boxable with the makeup you have....

spent some time trying to figure the Commander out. Putting group above the ramps or on the ramps results in a protracted fight, with adds going after the Dragon.

My tactic ended up being fighting the Commander at the dragon. The Dragon's DPS makes the commander go down a lot faster, as long as you got someone who can consistently pull the aggro back off the dragon. Used a chanter to keep the adds locked down, a shaman helping the cleric merc keep the warrior up, and necro + caster merc for DPS. Dragon ended up with 60% HP be the time we beat the Commander down.. punted the guards off the ledge and claimed the chest.

Task locks as soon as you enter BTW.

A friend,Yanelin, and I were boxing this mission at the same time. We weren't officially racing to be the first but we were. I lost, but hey, my 92 year old Dad called and wanted to go eat, what's a guy to do? Yanelin had beat it by the time I got back, kudos and salutes Yan, great job!

Anyway I'd actually tried this technique earlier and goofed one part and failed and gave up and tried buffing Lendiniara out the whazoo. We actually never tried method for a serious try but did test her with and w/o buffs just to see if they actually help. They do. With buffs she beat the first two with no help from us and still had 23% left. So she's pretty sturdy.

(1) Set up on the main platform between the two down ramps from the elevated plateau. Be ready to catch mobs from either ramp as they come from both.

(2) Hail Galenth, he offers 2 options, option 1 is one mob at a time, option 2 is they all bum rush. The uberest of uber group can probably take the bum rush. We wouldn't be close.

(3) Guard Vraymon walks down soon after the hail. Facing South toward the ramps he'll be on the ramp to your right where Galenth was. If you engage him on the ramp he will not agro the dragon. Easy kill.

(4) Guard Teclisin walks down the left ramp. Engage before he reaches the plateau to prevent agro'ing the dragon.

(5) This is pretty much the game. The Leut. and 2 guards come down the left, 2 guards come down the right ramp. Main thing is to catch the Lieutenant and burn him before he exits the ramps. Pop your DPS stuff here get rid of that Lieutenant pronto. If you take too long more guards spawn. Don't worry if a couple get to the dragon.

BEWARE: The commander does not wait for you to finish cleaning up the guards. You have about 30 seconds after the Lieutenant dies to work on the guards and then the commander is coming off the right ramp.

(6) Catch that commander on the ramp! That's what I'd failed to do both my first time to try this method and my 2nd time after Yanelin said it worked. 3rd try I caught him and it obviously a victory. Sic'd a pet on him and actually don't remember if we finished him or the unfinished guards first, but it probably works either way, once you stop the commander before he gets to the dragon, it's game over if you stay alive, he hits pretty hard.
