One guy had a life staff that he tried equipping, but with no Focus stat on his gear it didn't really do much, so he swapped back to being full dps. We all seemed to be well equipped with food and potions and the tank was in heavy armor and used an ice gauntlet for the "ice tomb" when his health got low. Everyone else just spammed potions and food as needed. I died once on the 2nd boss, and someone else died on the last boss when he was at about 5% health, so we just killed the boss before reviving the guy.<br /><br />I also remembered to click the quest item, but wasn't paying attention to the bone drops so also finished with 4/5 and don't really care to re-run the dungeon, so... eh.Magsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05870589034885773525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-33871687299530379512021-10-08T16:19:47.161+01:002021-10-08T16:19:47.161+01:00Oh that's what those bone piles were!

At least five dropped, probably more, but with my bags being full all the time I must have missed one. I ended up with four out of five and the quest unfinished. I didn't much want the dog house pet you get for it anyway. Certainly not enough to go back in for the missing bone.Bhagpusshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03499162165023939880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-57121445733393497222021-10-08T14:34:25.018+01:002021-10-08T14:34:25.018+01:00Good read.

First attempt was just three of us refugees from my WoW guild - we were about level 25, and had a tank, a healer and one DPS (myself). You can't actually do the expedition with less - quite apart from the game not letting you enter, there's a puzzle door that requires three people to operate. Having said that, the three of us were able to handle everything quite handily up to the final encounter, where Simon Grey stomped us into the floor repeatedly. <br />We came back a couple of nights later with a couple of levels under our belts, picked up two more DPS from the mass of job centre applicants at the door, and completed it with no problem. Well, when I say no problem, none of the Lost inhabiting the dungeon were a problem, but I spent ages stuck on a loading screen, then found myself paralysed with "LAG DETECTED" at the entrance, had to relog and go through loading screens again, and didn't actually get into the fight until shortly before the group reached the Foreman. Fortunately the group (even the two pick up adds) were very understanding.<br />One touch I did like was the existence of the endless add-spawning bone piles, like the monster generators from Gauntlet. Not a problem as long as I went to take out the generator first and trusted the tank and healer to keep the existing adds occupied, and there may have been a few cries of "red warrior needs food badly!" on Discord as we did them...Tremaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04410660872706894525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-10855948384278240432021-10-08T09:12:17.542+01:002021-10-08T09:12:17.542+01:00RAEBNCH.
