Lost Vale Tips

Before entering Lost Vale:

– have folks new to LV go to the Phoenix King in Altdorf to get the “Pure of Heart” quest.

– make sure folks bring a couple of banners

– group composition should be 2 tanks, 2 healers, 2 dps, only tanks need to be completely greater warded

– agree on who is the main tank, who is off-tank

– have everyone join vent

Left Wing

Intro mini-boss – giant worm on the beach

– Move forward on the beach and when elf approaches, wait for the giant worm to appear

– The giant worm will disappear after getting damaged to a certain extent

– folks new to LV need to talk to Mournfire on the beach

First boss: Ahzranok – lizard with frontal aoe

– Right next to the lizard boss are the first Menhir shards.

– Start picking up Menhir shards – have one person pick up all 10 required shards

– Don’t kill the mob of shamans in the back.  If you do, sprits will follow you for the rest of the wing.

– Ahzranok is pretty easy to kill as long as the tank keeps Ahzranok from facing the healers and squishies.  Healers and squishies should stand to the side of the boss.

– Turn in the first part of the quest.

On the way to the second boss:

– Pleasureseers need to be killed first.  They cause all actions (heals, attacks) to take 2x -3x longer.

Second boss: Malghor and his pink clouds

– Standing on a pink cloud causes insta-hate from Malghor

– Malghor resets mid-battle if tanks engage Malghor too far from his original wandering area

– Tanks should avoid pink clouds after establishing aggro – clouds seem to do a debuff which increases damage taken

– Pink clouds move around, the group may need to pick a safe spot depending on location of the clouds

– LOS for healing was not great from the logs

– Healers and RDPS standing on the tent worked ultimately, but healers aggroed the hero on a separate occasion

– Killing trash mobs there didn’t create noticable increase in damage from boss.

– Afterwards, turn in quest.

On the way to Third boss:

– Avoid getting close to the white eggs.  Multiple spiders will appear.

– The small spiders are not trivial to kill, so stay together as a group

Third boss: Horgulul – the many teated S&M boss

– She has a large knockback.  Main tank should run in and keep their back against the pillar.

– Adds are easily dispatched with AOE

– Important: The most common mistake is for healers to be too far away to heal.  This happens because the hero is large in size and is moving around in a circle.  Have everyone move in together.

-After Horgulul is dead, turn in all 10 shards.  Then you can turn in the quest.

– Head left to the cave with the spiders to get to the fourth boss

Fourth boss: Dralel – spider

– Everyone needs to make sure their Torch of Lileath is on their hotbar.  The torch can be found in the quest item inventory.

– Make sure to kill the 3 champion spiders in the back of the cavern before starting on the boss.  She can knock you all the way to them.

– Be careful in the rocks.  If you get stuck, just relog.

– The healers need to stand with their backs against the rock.

– Each little spider add that touches Dralel will increase her power.  Both DPS must kill the little spider adds.

– Main tank pulls Dralel to the top of the incline so that adds are easier to kill.

– Important: notice when your action bar turns grey.  That’s when you need to use the torch to unroot yourself.

– At the beginning of the battle, allow the Main Tank to use torch first to establish aggro.  Afterwards everyone should use their torch whenever their action bar turns grey.

– Left wing is done!  Return to the starting area beach to get your jewelry item.
