Default The nightmare of the Ice Caves

Is it just me, or is this place filled with god awful players? Like half the people are under lvl 20 and like 3/4 aggro everything in sight... I am ripping my hair out here... is there some secret to finding a decent group there?

Already tried it... they always aggro to much and stand in the place the tebuchet(sp) are firing at and die.

Well, you have to know how to use the henchmen. Keep your distance (extra distance) from things you don't want to fight and be sure to call the right targets on things you do want to fight. As for the trebuchet blasts at the end, just keep running until you are past each one. The henchmen don't stop if you keep going. They should never take more than one blast if you time it right.

I made it to the gate, actually. I can never pull the Jade Armors without one of the henchies aggroing the mantle.

Default Where?

Where is this cave you speak of ?
I have actually gotten by the three armors gaurding the door once .
Must hae been real lucky . I had heard there was away to complete it without fighting them . Will have to look harder I guess .

AND YES there are a lot of very lame players in the ice caves . I dont see how anyone as stupid as some of the people I have grouped with got there in the first place.
The sad part is they dont even know how lame they are .
doesn't anyone know about the aggro circle?????
ok I am done now
thanks

seriously, just go the f*ck around em. and dont forget to break all the catapults by going out onto the ice and killing the douchebag who keeps shooting. the second ship out there you can fire yourself to activate a sequence that gets rid of the rest. you shouldnt have to run through ANY explosions. this ones pretty easy with henchies. and when you get to the chick you need to save, blow up the escape route door before you let her out, makes getting away much faster. ok i think thats it.

I'm bored so I decided to draw a crude map:



I think I scribbled on it correctly.

You have to run through a couple explosions right at the end, but they're not bad, just time things right and you can pretty much avoid them.
