Final Assault Comments

Well, I led a group that finished the Final Assault quest Saturday night. I have to admit, it was probably the hardest and longest quest I had done over the entire game. Needless to say, it took about 6 times before we beat it. The hardest part was finding a group that didn't have a player that would drop. People give up so easily. Any way, after having 1 guy bitch at me for attacking before his monk spell points completely regenerated, he decided to drop after getting himself killed running to the SF portal alone. Bad move on his part, because we decided to go back to Dedrimor Camp and pick up his replacement, Lina the henchy. Then we beat it without him. I forgot his name, but I really wanted to spam his ignorant butt. Now he's going to spend the next month or so trying to get a good group to finish the quest. Oh well....

Without giving away too much. We had a combination of 2 warriors, 2 elementalists, 1 necro minion master, 1 ranger, and 2 monks with 1 being Lina (who I know wouldn't drop). The most difficult part of the mission is the ending location or what I call the Furnace. Going into the Furnace is bad enough with the robot trying to kill you and then having to kill the 3 binders nearly at the same time. But after that, the 3 flame djinn were even tougher. None of us had gotten this far before so it was brand new to us. We ended up killing the 1st djinn of the 3 (which was pretty easy). Then the other 2 stayed together which made it equally tough. Little did we know, that if we were all at melee striking distance, the 400hp damage would be spread across all us. Instead me and another warrior were taking the full impact at 200hp a piece. That hurts! Even with all of this, we ended up killing them, but not without a lot of blood, sweat, and tears.

For those of you who don't mind having spoilers, here is a good site to help you fight the djinn at the end.

Good Luck

For me, it is most annoying of all quests so far - reason? First time, I did it all the way with henchies, but couldn't kill binders in time - being monk limits my firepower too much. Later I tried with friend, however, 2 of us was not enough as well. Finally, I got full group... and got DCed right after we cleared Guardians and patrols near binders... At that point I said - f... it, it's not worth 8k. Not to mention Sorrow Flame/Fist is *insanely* annoying.
It is not really that hard, but gets boring if you die again and again to that damn lava/fist. I had way more fun with Titans quest so far(Last Day was quite a battle, and I still have Kryta to finish)

My last attempt at this quest failed because our only ele went afk.
When we all died, he said he wasn't afk at all and that he was just watching us die while eating and laughing.
This prompted the team to lose the spirit to continue with this leech hanging on us.
I have however completed this quest before and i must say that it is quite enjoyable. It's just not one of those quests which can be repeated because there are so many idiots and griefers spoiling things.
"Bunch up, get close" - what's so hard to understand?

Eating and laughing???...sadist...

None of the new quests are that difficult cuz of res shrines...

It is just a great mission because it is so funny. I wouldn't call it the hardest...
finished it with a PUG of 6 (2 early drops). All 60 dp at the end, so we had some laughs while getting smacked badly by the ironman's tricks and fire djinn's. but keep ressing, and we got it slowly bit by bit.

killing fire djinns is very easy with a minion master. If you don't have enough minions after having killed the robot, you can notice that gardians were on some lava wells. Juste suicide on it again and again and make a minion's army of around 25-30 skelettons. They will all tank the djinns who will deal them like 2-3 dmg each hit. Just stay behind and nuke them. If you lose, just make another army with the same strategy.

Enjoy ;-)

As a piece of advice to everyone, it's best to wait until everyone has their energy and skills completely refreshed before going ahead. Even though I have no idea what that Monk was casting or how bad his energy management was (if the guy was running around with a 15/-1 or 2, and had been maintaining Enchants, it might have actually taken 2 minutes for Energy to recharge), going ahead without someone is a bad idea, especially if it's one of the Monks. (I'm still trying to figure out how you can tell a henchie's energy is ready.)

As another piece of advice, tanks should be well ahead of the squishy casters, so the casters should stay back. Understanding aggro is something both the aggroer and the casters should learn.

Finally complete this last night with my monk - no one left!!!

Hopefully my elementalist will be equally lucky this weekend.... now just leaves the titan quests to do!

While you tend to represent this person, you're probably dumb enough to run ahead of the group and get your sorry ass killed. Serves you right. No one needs you. Here's my point, "cry all you want to, bitch all you want to, the more you comment, the more it tells everyone in this forum just how naive you are. Not only naive, but stupid enough to represent noobs in the game". Only the ignorant have to resort to name calling and only noobs call others noob. No, it wasn't me because I don't do PUGS(I'd rather take henchies if guildies aren't available), I do not run ahead, nor do I drop out in the middle of a mission/quest.

You're such a silly noob. Peace out. I represent no one but myself. I just made a simple statement that most pugs just go charging ahead without letting people recharge skills and energy and then get mad when they die.

harderst mession in the game dude , trying to do it for over 4 months now , people always drop becuase , the're some noobs or people who dont know much... well if someone would help me it would be awsome
my charrecter name is : The Guy In Da Pants
happy new year

I've tried with henchmen a few times and I just can't get all the binders down in time before they resurrect. I'm curious if anyone has been able to do with henchmen only. I've gotten so close but to no avail.
