Harpy NestsFollow

I am getting feeble, I guess, I don't remember the trick to attacking the Harpy Nests. I target them, I stuff my face in them, I attack with different weapons, all I can get is the "too far away" message. Yther! Help!

thanks

Sorry yes, Blackfeather. There's a quest where you need to knock down the nests, /open not being an option. When you bash them enough, mobs come out to play. I was successful at it, when I played years ago. But I guess if you don't know what I am talking about (I know you have been in the game since day-minus 10), then you were probably too high level to have bothered with level 50 mobs in blackfeather when it came out.

Thanks anyway, I will keep trying!

LOL, I missed the target again. Those transport nests are nests aren't they! :) I was referring to the Harpy Nests, the little hooches all over the place, sorry, I didn't make that distinction. I did the quests to activate the griffon transport nests all the way to the top. He he, the devil is in the details.

But on a completely different topic, I looks to me like Alla has purged a lot of old information, or maybe archived it, cuz I was not able to find any reference to the quest "Destroy! Knock the Nests Down." I kept notes on this stuff back in the day and so have a record of the dialogues and so forth, but this quest is not in the Blackfeather list, and a search on the words Destroy, etc were unrewarding. I was hoping to find a clue to solve my stupidity in the comments for the quest, which I did NOT keep, unfortunately.

DUH! It just hit me! The notes say here this is a level 60 quest, and since I don't have the level yet on this toon, NOR THE QUEST, that may be why I can't access them. SOE's little way of keeping me outof mischief, eh?

When I get to 60 on this toon, I will revisit the issue. Thanks Yther for breaking me out of my rut!

take care

An your reply is a very lame attempt at post farming. Trying to catch up to Jophiel?

I originally finished this quest with a monk. I found that if you enter the nest and did a series of kicks you were able to break the nest open. A year or two later I brought a ranger through and tried the quest and could not get the nest to open trying with kicks, archery, and spells. I eventually gave up on the quest, having the same problem with finding information on it.

Necro posts? Is that about the only kind you can make these days?? :)

I found that pets can attack these things, and depending on their powers can open them up, sooner or later. Yes, they spawn harpies when you open them, so there is plenty of that kind of action if you want it.

I too have failed to find any way to attack them with a toon, although once upon a time I was able to.

You get the quest from Lucian there in the graveyard, you need to be level 60. The word path is destroy/interested.

good hunting
