ok, so I've warned you... A mixture of silly people and my stooopid computer have put me in a bad mood

last night, about to do Galrath with my warrior. I hate that mission at the best of times, but thought I'd give it a go again. We need one more person for our group... ah ha! an ele is looking for a group for glarath. I add her/him in.
We set off, the ele seems to be afk... they've been chatty up until we start. Now they've gone quiet... through the second portal, we're fighting, almost die, I say "uh, u mind helping out with the fighting?"...

no response. Hmph. So we carry on, not wanting to give up now. this person had obviously wanted us to do the quest for them while they stand there and not bothered to tell us. So, onward, we all die the ele is afk or not paying attention, we need them to res us. Obviously we dont spawn at the res portal until we are all dead, and as they are at the portal safe n sound they arent dieing anytime soon... we decide to map jump back and re group...

I get a pm asking why the ***8 we'd left them there and could they rejoin the group?!!! rofl

We start again... 2nd time lucky... we get to galrath. My monitor freezes, it's overheating i think. It dies. Cant see a thing. Need to turn it off before it blows up. Type a msg hoping that my group will still be able to see it, as it hadnt kicked me out of the game. Grrrr

Rant over, I feel better... sorry for that!

poor you....Now don't lose courage, and do the quest again...then before you accept the reward, abandon it, and do it again!

So that's what a McD's application looks like . Anyway, I've had that happen quite a few times, not specifically on galrath though. What we did, was draw the aggro onto the person and leave them dead. They then complied quickly when we demanded assistance in the quest... but in the meantime, all the gold drops that were for the person were distributed between the group (mostly my guildies n me) so it was kind of fun to watch. Man, noobs get angry some times. You should have seen the person.

There isn't a rimshot in this world loud enough to follow that.

the hardest part is the trapping rangers and the vertas necros, so everytime you kill a guy they raise one more. A good MM solves that problem.

Cursh the kuzricks (sp) was 5000xp

Oh but I've only done Galrath once, but found it to be one of the most fun quests ever. Plan on randomly tagging along with a group some day. Wasn't nearly powerful enough last time and had a super warrior team mate punching holes through things for us

Um, necrotic traversal or consume corpse takes care of Verata's fan club... Just kill one of Galrath's guards and port on up. Lure the others to the edge of the cliff and let the casters deal with them and then take out the boss. It isn't that hard.

Thanks you guys for offering help, thats sooo kind! I just didnt get time to jump on GW yesterday so will have missed you all

This quest shouldn't be hard, it's easy if you have a good team, and that's what makes it more and more annoying...

Wish me luck

MM with necrotic traversal can solo Galrath and his guards. MM also rocks against all the forest minotaurs before you get there.

Its much easyer to solo Galrath with a warrior - takes me aprox 10 minutes from toa to finish.

I like to take my time, get a full party, preferably Guildies and make an event out of it...

not into all this rushing about...

plus, I find farming boring, so I dont mind doing missions and quests several times over just for the loot
