Since we have a section for replayables, I thought maybe individual threads for all of them would be in order.

I just wanted to post again how much I HATE the Tzaril Leader :)

One question, why IS the Tzaril leader so hard, I never have actually had too many problems Quick-combatting him.

Scout usually has trouble with the one just before the leader.

When QC fails, Gating will do the job on any of them. It seems like, to me, that Gating for Tzaril is like the Creyan (sp?) for Undead. It was like that at level 60 and even better at level 81.

It seems the amount of unmatched loot has dropped. I used to get 2 or 3 a week when I played a lot. Now that I play very little I should get 2 or 3 every month or so.

I think Ive gotten 1 unmatched {Hide Belt} this whole year.

I am still looking for:

Unmatched Armor Items of......

Plate Sleeves
Plate Helm
Plate Greaves
Plate Belt
Plate Breastplate

any chance of me finding those anywhere???

thanks:cool:

It's rare, but yes you can find them. Scout has 2 unmatched breastplates in storage at Seeker Castle. If I could, I'd sell you one.

Me, neither, but he does have a nasty special which, if you're really unlucky, can kill you if you Quick Combat and don't have enough SP at 20% or whatever you end up with when the combat stops. I've seen it take close to thirty points in one hit, on top of the damage you might take from a low dice roll. So I tend to go with time-honored tradition and save before going into the inner sanctum, just in case the Fates aren't favoring me.

Do you remember where you got them??? did you buy them at an AG only shop...or did you get them in a replayable or the realms at random???

thanks

I know that I bought one early on. The other I got while grinding. I don't remember where for sure. Probably Axepath or Yir-Tanon. It's been a while since I got it.

I know that I have got Unmatched Plate Breastplate, Plate Greaves and Plate Helm from Yir-Tanon and Jadefang all within the past month or two. I have also got Unmatched Armour from the Battlegrounds.

That might be because of your QS. We know it improves inferior and poor items, but are we sure it doesn't improve Items that are above common.

shadowblack

08-11-2009, 08:40 PM

We're sure. Just look at all the low-quality (common or styrdy) stuff I find. Besides, I have found more than enough Unmatched Plate before that particular Quickstone power was introduced.

OK, so I admit i haven't read any significant portion of the old forum. I guess I should have said "I'm not sure".

wow...Ive done several hundred Jadefangs and never got anything close to being good. Now Yir-Tanon has netted me some good stuff...but Ive only done it a few dozen times this year at most as I rarely go there anymore......I get plenty of Unmatched lower stuff from there though!!:confused:

Axepath and Yir-Tanon both yield good Item rewards.

shadowblack

08-12-2009, 01:32 PM

Jadefang and Moonpath are for experience, not for items. There's only two places in Jadefang where you can find loot (the bodies and the end after killing the queen) and only one such place in Moonpath (at the end after killing the troll). Axepath, Yir-Tanon and Bat Cave are for both, as you can get random drops after each fight.

thingirl

Tarn is AG only, but it is also for both, as there is a random drop after each bulding.

shadowblack

08-12-2009, 01:44 PM

Most items I find in Tarn are not worth taking, so for me Tarn is just experience. But yes, in theory it's for both.

thingirl

08-12-2009, 01:48 PM

There's the Band Of Gruljasa. Oh, wait, that's for wearing, not selling.

I've gotten sevral exceptional items from Tarn.

shadowblack

08-12-2009, 02:18 PM

So have I. That doesn't change the fact that many times I find nothing better than +3 SP despite clearing all 17 buildings. Not that I care - my main concern in Tarn is getting an orb at the end (for obvious reasons).

Good to know that a) it is actually possible to get that one and b) it's taken even a top grinder this long to see it. I was beginning to think I was jinxed.

I was bored a few days ago, so I killed a Tzaril in Yir-Tanon, picked up the common Two-Handed Sword that he dropped, and fought my way through the scenario with that sword. What kind of things have you guys done on Sryth when you were bored?

SiannaDey

01-06-2010, 10:31 PM

you have to be bored to go to Yir-Tanon. That replayable needs an upgrade.

When you are in the skill level of the 20's and 30's the items are actually worth going there....but I would rather Explore the Realms at Random to gain items and XPs than go fight Tzaril there :cool:

Has anybody else noticed the code requirement for Yir-Tanon going away? I just ran through, and was all set with my code, but it skipped straight to the reward.

Hadn't noticed but you might have hit the bug. If you get any duplicated letter(s) it automatically goes to the reward, skipping the normal procedure.

Doolipalally

02-15-2010, 07:45 PM

The code was still there when I ran Yir-Tanon today, so it's likely you hit the duplicate letter bug. It can be less obvious if it's the first and third letters which are the same.

Yup, that's it. My code was KZK.

I just noticed that the "Step through the North Arch" isn't always 4 Tzaril. I just fought 1 and got taken to the turn the dial option. Anyone has an explanation or additional info on this?

As far as I can remember, how many Tzaril you fight in there has always been random.

It is supposed to be 4. This is a bug/glitch that occasionally rears its head. I emailed the GM about it when it happened to me many months ago.
