Task - Initiating Maneuvers - GunthakFollow

I picked up a "long" task in Gunthak called Initiating Maneuvers ...

1) Kill 10 Luggald Initiates - Nadox
Initiates can be found in the large building complex just over the lava bridge, when you come over the bridge take the middle entrance to the building, run straight accross room and enter tunnel which leads down to undead and underground pier, note Luggards do not see through Invis but there is a Treasure Sorter in the middle of this room that does, also a wandering undead mob paths into this room from the left hand side, so stay away from them as you cross the room. You can pull to just inside this tunnel, there are lots of Initiates and Abominations, you will get double pulls unless you can pacify or split.

2) Loot 4 Luggard Claws from Initiates
The task actually asks for Luggard Flesh, but it is the claws you need , regular drop off both Initaites and Abominations

3) Explore the Sleeping Quarters in Southern Mines - Torgiran
This is the area in with all the tunnels in the south of Torgiran which start when zoning in from the armory platform in Dulak, the sleeping quarters are in the south west,a grouping of 5 rooms split off the main tunnel, just south of the Overseer's room, nothing see's through invis in this area.

*Now this is the weird part*

4) Kill 10 Fire Giant Warriors - Nagafen's Lair (SolB)
I have done a lot of tasks but have never seen one that sends you to a completely unrelated zone, normally all the tasks in Gunthak stay in LoY zones, except for item turn ins or the final NPC contact. I am not going to explain how to get to the Fire Giants in SolB, as a young Paladin I did many Naggy Raids so I knew the way. You normally get 2 giants at a time, as a 62 Pal with 6k+HP and 1500+AC I had no problem with straight melee, but I also had my 64 Druid healing, which was not very often, also if you are a caster you need to belly cast the giants or nothing will stick.

5)Deliver 4 Sharp Luggald Claws to Calambra - Guntak
Deliver the Luggald Initaites drops to Calambra who is on top of the ship you zone in on from the POK book, 4 claws not stacked.

6) Explore entrance to the Harbor Town - Gunthak
Just run through the caves on the way to Dulak, you get a Task complete message as soon as you come out of the cave tunnels, nothing see's through invis.

7)Speak with Giksazz - Gunthak
He is in one of the little huts right near the lighthouse, hail him and the task is completed

I did this task with a 62 Paladin two boxing a 64 Druid, with no problems. It took about 2.5 hours with most of that being related to working through SolB to get to the fire giants.

As a lvl 62 I received 7% XP and 7% XP to AA's with a setting of 10% going to AA's,(this would be around 11% XP with 0% going to AA's),also 201P,6G,1S in change.

This was a fun task mainly due to the Fire Giants, it had been a long time since I was in SolB and it brought back a lot of memories.

Have fun
