Darkspire anyone?

[Cadelin]

I am interested in getting some Darkspire loot for my template. I have however noticed that there isn't very much stuff on the CMs. I don't really know what the drop rate is like but from the fact that all the Lamorak templates seem to have loads of darkspire drops in I am guessing it isn't too hard to farm.

Would anybody be interested in forming a group at some point to do this instance? If it proves to be rather a waste of time to farm I'll stop but I would at least like to try it once. From reading the walkthroughs it seems it can take upto 2hours.

Rough group setup would be something like:
1x warrior
2x zerger/savage
1x supp sm
1x skald
1x aug healer
1x pac healer
1x aug shaman
With a few ML too it shouldn't be that difficult.

Anybody interested? Or anybody have any to say about this instance?

I'd drop the skald and take another tank (Thane/Warrior/Valk), the 2 x guard floaters come in very handy.

We have done Darkspire a few times in TR and I would recommend the followign setup for the fastest way to get to Fafnir:

sup sm
sup sm
warrior/shield tank
warrior/shield tank
aug shaman
pac healer
aug healer
caster/tank

Saying that though we have also done it with all melee aswell but the above setup was about the fastest as tbh until you actually get to the spire its a bit dull in the corridoors

Good luck with it but dont be too disappointed when you get to Fafnir and realise he aint THAT hard - he does look totally uber tho - a much bigger than troll sized dorf in uber lookin armour and that just rocks my boat big time hehe
