Tur Suil Quest - Abomos

[Glyph_mid]

I was wondering if anyone else are running around out there having yet to kill Abomos in the Rhoiwyn's Necklace quest?.

Was there a few days ago with 2fgs, but he was a high spawn and we got wiped.

Down to my point, would anyone be interested in doing a Abomos raid thursday, we need aprox 3fg to be sure we can complete it. The reward is a belt you can choose yourself, and it is rather nice.
And for the people who wants exp, i gained 1 bub down there last time @ 49, and you get around 1 bub for completing the quest

You get the quest in Droighaid at Carylina, she will ask you to kill 2 mobs before you are sent to Tur Suil, but I am sure we can put off 10min to do the 2 kills first, and then head down to Tur Suil.

People get the quest, and meet in AF at 18BST/19CET, we can see how many comes, and if there arent enough we'll call it off. Ill try get an officer to spam /as with it abit.

Signing out

//Edit, I would prefer level 45+ attending. The quest is a level 49 quest, so theres not really any point of dragging to many down there...we wouldnt want to crash any zones would we?

Few hints for you which might be of use :

1) It's killable with 1fg, but 2 is ideal
2) One group tanks Abomos, while the other deals with the sylvanshade adds. Then roam around waiting to respawn and repeat, with the groups roles reversed
3) The group who lands the killing blow is the -ONLY- group who will progress. So having 2 groups there means u gotta kill it 2 times ( see #2 for suggestions how to deal with problems if the same group kills it 2 times )

Hope that helps a bit

Theres plenty of things to kill there to pass the time till he respawns too

DAOC urban myth im afriad, have heard this about other enounters and proved it to be wrong.

As with all fights, one group is credited with the kill, and this is based on the amount of damage/aggro achieved, never about the last 'magic blow'.

For the second grp to get it, just get the nukers in the first group to take a break, and if possible let only the second group tank its last 25%.

no boni, I have done this quest about 5-10 times and found this point to be true. last hit for the win

 

[Vladdie]

aye, did it around 5 times myself and always had to kill him twice.

i'm sure we can get a Fantasy group together we were planning on doing it last night (wed') but couldn't get 2 fgs will pm you in game

u are right Mori, but not with this spawn we had - i guess even 3 grps will die on this one.

we brought it down to 75% the most and died to his uber hits.

the 1st spawn was super easy

Done the whole dungeon with 1fg a few times, except balor. Killing balor takes 2.5 groups and the rest of dungeon 1fg, abomos is easiest of the bosses, maybe the queen is easier.

adoreable - u should have seen this spawn

Could be unlucky i suppose, once Skeaghashee in CF was so high we could'nt even take him with a high RR fully balanced group.

yeah, accured the sameish for us. 1FG gonna kill epic mobs for fun. Struggeled vs Skaeghshee and some died but finaly managed to kill him. Procided to kill the rest and they where all rather easy (none died). Then went to sui on the Chicken as w e thought the bugger would be to though for 1FG, but was gonna try to get him as far as we could. To our supprice we didn't have to rezz anyone.

Anyway, Abomos hasn't been hard when I've killed him. I think boss on the 1st floor is easier, and you might be right about queen beeing easier aswell. She is really easy considering what she drops regarding how hard some mobs that drops eqvivalent stuff is.

Anyway, tip is to pull him out into the rooms whit the stairs as this area is safe.

And so far everytime the group who got the killingblow got the next step in the quest/jinxed it so that other group didn'yt get the next queststep

Best bet with Abomos is to try to pull him out of the room with the sylvanshades so it reduces the adds that can pop mid fight and back into the room with the staircase in.

 

[elerand]

Tend to find the high lvl fomor on the way to abomos a pain in the ass if they call for help and you end up with 7+, they can hit for 500-660 or more which is a bit evil, always needed 2fg to get past those safely and been ok most the time with 1fg on abomos.

Wish I could make it for this, need to do it with my valewalker now

 

[old.Mitsu]

I'll join for sure.

 

[Cirion]

Ill be there for sure.

When I was there first time we were 2 fgs as I said, first time he went down very fast, we pulled him out of the room to avoid the shades.
The 2. group got the hit and thereby the item. So we waited for another pop, it took 5min and he was there...but he spawned at some exstreme high spawn, e was hitting for 1k+, we had no wardens pbaoe didnt bite on him this time, and we had like 4 tanks....so we got wiped.

After my experience then its best to pull him out of the room, and the killing blow gets the reward + GET MORE TANKS

 

[Glyph_mid]

Looks like we need to postpone it, theres a CF alliance gallaraid today just 30 after the Tur Suil raid would start.

You can always try to PM me, and we see if we still got enough to do it.

But if not, then this is postponed to Tuesday the 8th next week. Same meetingtime in AF 6BST, 19CET

Again, Im sorry for the postpone, but to get the best possible result I think it will be neccesary

Its highly unlikely there is a mechanism like this inplace. Theres simply no reason for it to be there, theres a perfecty good mechanism for calculating which group gets the kill and this 'killing blow' is something I hear a lot of times about various bosses and its never turned out to be true yet. Afaik its just something someone wrote on one of the larger 'tips' sights and people just blindly believe it.

In fact im pretty sure I have landed the killing blow before and seen the other group get the reward. (Have also killed Absymos 5+times).

1.2b and i'm in with my shade

bosses who drops items, like say Legion as an example, drops loot that is pickupable by the group who had most aggro from him. That goes for all mobs that drops loot. so, holding aggro is pretty much equal to getting loot.

Quest stuff isn't the same and I am pretty sure that it has occured that abomus has droped loot to 1 group and quest stuff to the other

Been there with 2fg a couple of times. A couple of times we let one group do all the damage, and then the other group took it from 5% to 0% and got the quest stuff. Quest rewards and regular loot drops are not calculated the same way.

Grats and thanks to those who came!
We took 2fg's down there and killed the big guy twice, getting the quest done for all. Last hit seemed to determine which group completed that step. Thanks to that sylvan CF guy (sorry forgot ya name) and his group for helping us with the big guy. Damn he was tough to kill the first time ........ but second time around he was a wus Definately seems best to drag the guy out of the room he spawns in and back through the gate u pass through, as this avoids the adds.

 

[boni_ofdavoid]

Wow, ok i believe you peeps about quest stuff. Weird stuff...

 

[Cirion]

Crap I missed it, was having to much fun in bg0 on pryd and totaly forgot about it

 

[Glyph_mid]

Bah, wasnt there myself

Bumping it and doing it again Tuesday, that is tomorrow at 19 BST/20 CET, meet at AF

 

[Glyph_mid]

There we go, another 3fgs completed it + the killed the queen

Thanks for showing
