The Last Day Dawns = Stupidly Hard!

I've been attempting to do the quest "The Last Day Dawns" now for about 3 hours, but I've not even made it past the frist few groups of charr, let alone made it to the king & taken out the 5 titan groups. This mission is just stupidly hard, it's unbelievable. It's like we have 2 choices - Either do it on normal mode & take a group of me + 3 hench (which are level 6) or do it on hard mode & take a group of me + 3 hench (which are level 20).

Doing it on normal mode is hard enough, so to switch to hard mode just to change the hench from lvl 6 to 20 only for them to still be completely useless & die within seconds, isn't really helpful.

I only have Prophecies so heroes aren't an option & nobody is around who wants to do that quest so I HAVE to take hench.

I've been on Guild Wiki & read up on all the tips for completing the quest but none of them could help me.

I'm a lvl 20 Fire E/Mo by the way.

Does anybody have any ideas for completing this quest as it's extremely frustrating, thanks.

you dont go in... zone trough areas not town. and all u need is a runner.

idk if it will work in HM though. im sure a good runner can still make it.

might have to see for myself.

and your party revert to 4 becasue your using heros/hench. 8 man group will remain 8 people.

So I have to take 8 people, not hench for the party to remain as 8?

yep ,


again your best bet is to post a party search in guru. find people that are willing and wanting to do that quest.

edit: i no have clue if heroes will count? might be 2 ppl with 6 heroes also work

if your trying to do it on NM then you can do it with a team of 4. Just use sabs build. No effort at all.

HM might be a different story as i haven't tried it on HM yet.

few lvls higher with elite skills, faster reduced casting times and faster attack times.

Just isn't feasible with 3 lvl 6 henches. If you get a good monk player and a couple of other lvl 20's, you'd stand a chance.

And if you have beaten the lich, you should have enough cash to purchase a few ice skills from Dakk at Ember Light Camp. A capture signet for a water magic elite wouldn't go amiss either.

Hope you do beat it mate

ali89k sorry i didn't realise you didn't have heroes. It is unlikely you'll get a pug for that mission, so like i said before give me a shout in game and i'll come and help. Plus i'll try and rope some guildies/friends in as well. good luck in the mean time anyway

just hire runner.

You + some wammo with decked out heroes + 1 hench, let him run to quest zone from yaks and then he can quit. You will have full power + L12 alesia for lols.

If you want help in normal mode, I'll help you.

I should be on tonight, add me to friends: Dargoth Alfazul. PM me (I'll probably be with my Rit Wang Fujin). Just pm me and tell me you want to do LDD.

I'll help you with whatever I have (W/R, Mo/E, R/Mo, A/W, N/Me, Me/Mo, Rit/x). My Dervish and my Paragon have not travelled to Old Ascolon yet.

I have heros.

Until then, good luck and have fun!
