Walkthrough & Notes

The instance consists of a number of levels, with the player starting at the bottom and working all the way up, via stairs and rampes, to a dead-end. Quest objects and hostile Dourhands line the path upwards. There are more than enough Dourhand Treasure-hunters in close promixity to the quest objects, or unavoidably in the path, to complete the quest objective. It should not be necessary to pull them, from out-of-the-way spots. The scout appears near the very top. If in the vicinity of the top level, and it is obvious that there aren't enough quest objects up there to complete the "destroy" objectives, it is advisable to leave at least one of the objects alone, then backtrack downwards for more objects, and finally, destroy the object near the top. This is because it can take some time to ascend back to the top, and once the last object required by the quest is destroyed, the timer starts. Leaving one object near the top minimizes the possibility of the timer expiring before the chest is reached. After completing your objectives, there is a limited time (2 minutes) before you will be automatically ejected from the instance. You need to find and open the "Mission Reward" chest before this happens. Defeating more enemies does not reset the timer!

Rewards
A "Mission Reward" chest containing: about 250   between 1 and 3  Gundabad Mountain-marks 0 or 1  Relic of Gundabad
