Mistvale Nameless Ruins

Post by adamaustin »

Hello,

I am relatively new player still eligible for Mistvale quests.

I got stuck at the Mistvale Armaments - Gauntlets quest.

It is not a problem to collect Scales of Vile Deeds, it is impossibility to kill that 40 Elder Gazers in 5 young players dungeons.

I can cope with Demons (killed 100+) , I can cope with Liches, can stand to one or two Lich Lords.

this quest is marked Level 1, Solo.

In Mistvale Nameless Ruins dungeon I cannot survive pack of
3-4 Succubus , 3-4 Lich Lords, couple Liches, and 2-3 Elder Gazers (my target) in area 10 by 10 fields next to the entry portal right in the shade of the wall.

I can teleport attack one ... land spell and perhaps 2 hits ... then pray to get to the teleport before death.

sometimes i die on the another side because cast spells never miss ... and will get you on another side of portal :-(

My stats are not high, just average:
Str/Dex/Int = 135/125/54
HP = 146
Resistances Phys/Fire/Cold/Poison/Energy = 60/70/57/69/70
Anatomy / Magery / Resisting spells/Parrying at 100 , Tactics/Swordmanship at 120

Damage from large battle Axe 56-60 plus bonuses from ConsecrateWeapon/Bless
I cannot use Enemy of One, because it will lower defense from other creatures.

I am trying to use Reactive Armor/Magic Reflection but it is lower one to increase other ...

What am I doing wrong? other than not buying 3-4 Nobles/Mules/nightmares for gazillion of gold
or advices "buy" this super duper weapon/armor from my vendor for several gazillions of gold.

I am assuming (with all consequences) that this quest is for relatively new players without 500 ED to spend on equipment
Perhaps it is a trap like Mistvale Mercantile quest?

Is there other location withing those 5 dungeons with Elder Gazers ?

Can I collect those 40 Elder Gathers from regular dungeons? ... they are easier for me. :-P

This is what you're doing wrong. If you've built up to 125 natural str and dex and you're still getting walloped, it's because you're fighting the mechanics of the early game instead of going with them. 4 pets with 1000 str and 1000 HP are are simply going to be stronger than you until midgame.

It has been awhile, but if I remember correctly, you don’t have to kill the mobs in Mistvale for them to count. Only the special items need to be collected there. Not sure if that has changed, but should be easy to check. Go kill some elder gazers in a Trammel dungeon and see if your count progresses.
