Walkthrough & Notes

There are 13 goblins on the path from the zone-in point to the boss, but are fairly weak and take little time to dispatch.
It is possible to fall into the water in the boss area, particularly since Stûg-and-Zar has a knockback attack. This is not much of an issue, since there is a ramp back up. If Stûg-and-Zar falls into the water, however, he seems chronically unable to get back up again, which can make the rest of the fight awkward, and may put the boss into "anti-exploit" mode
With stealth, the goblins on the way to the boss can be bypassed, and afterwards, the boss defeated, without aggroing any of the nearby goblins (although, watch the facing on that knockback attack!). But the rewards chest is within aggro range of 4 goblins, and cannot be looted while in combat. So, practically speaking, a few goblins must be defeated, if the chest rewards are to be acquired. Without any chest looting, the whole mission can be completed in less than a minute by a moderately-geared Burglar, thus putting it among the fastest missions available.
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!
