Overtuned?[edit]

Something seems very off with this quest. I died several times before the queen even showed up... taking her on solo was out of the question. I barely managed to do it with two other people, and that was with us all dying once. The amount of unavoidable damage just seems crazy high. This is as a thief. -- osuracnaes (talk) 05:10, 9 September 2012 (UTC)

For any thieves still having trouble, it's very easy to solo by kiting the mobs (which, if you've made it this far in the story, you should be an expert at doing), then pulling the queen up the path towards the entrance/exit. She only goes as far as the end of it, so if you can avoid her multiple AOE's and finish her off before she retreats and resets her health, you'll be even further away from the subsequent explosion. --OldBoy 10:25, 20 October 2012 (UTC)

Set to Blow vs. Set To Blow[edit]

This Game_updates/2012-09-25#Story mentioned the the quest Set to Blow. I am pretty sure this quest is ment. So how is the quest spelled? - Yandere Talk to me... 15:28, 25 September 2012 (UTC)

I've used the capitalization in-game when creating quest pages... I might still have a screenshot I can look at (or I can just look at my personal story page when I get home), but unless I made a mistake I think it's 'Set To Blow.' -- osuracnaes (talk) 17:15, 25 September 2012 (UTC)
Checked my screenshots and my personal story page. Everything except the loading screen says 'Set To Blow.' -- osuracnaes (talk) 00:13, 26 September 2012 (UTC)
Ok very nice... Thanks for locking this up. - Yandere Talk to me... 00:23, 26 September 2012 (UTC)

Tchkik[edit]

"Chik-tic-tarr-rrrrrr!" haha I love this line. It's so funny to hear him actually shout/scream. -- Fey User Fey Zeal Blue Sylvari Tango.png 06:30, 22 January 2013 (UTC)

Durmond Priory part + differing dialogue?[edit]

So I'm trying to help expand the Durmond Prioriy portion. I noticed someone has already done the "Cinematic with Ftokchak" portion. Reviewing my video, it slightly differs. Wonder if it's because I went human and full diplomatic. I too did the same route in that I chose to save the Skritt and they get the bomb.

Not sure if I should change what's there...or make a side note along the lines of "If diplomatic...so and so". If someone wants to do the honors and do it for me, I'm more than happy. Here's my version of the dialogue.

Cinematic with Ftokchak Ftokchak: Ah, I am glad to see you. The raid on the centaur camp was a windfall of explosive powder, and the kin you rescued helped us assemble a potent bomb. Hero: Ftokchak? You sound...smarter than before. What happened? Ftokchak: We skritt grow smarter when we are together. That's why it was vital for Tchkik's scourts to be rescued. The greater the numbers, the better the results. Tchkik: Ftokchak! Our scouts are under attack. The queen is approaching! Ftokchak: What? No! No. Too soon! The bomb isn't primed! We'll have to set it off here, in the village. Evacuate the young, and the old! Magister Sieran: Oh, no! Ftokchak, you have to ready the bomb. We'll defend you. Send as many of your people to safety as you can. Ftokchak: Thank you. This is for the brothers and sisters they took from us. We will bury these destroyers today-no matter the cost.

mission nerfed[edit]

This mission has been seriously nerfed. It's not liek it was before where it was a death trap. There are only a couple of monsters in each "wave", and a lot of time is spent standing around doing nothing. With some small amount of condition removal, and dodge and run around in circles a bit, you will easily survive. Also there is no champ bag from the queen. 58.7.218.242 00:09, 25 September 2014 (UTC)

Bosses from the personal story no longer drop champion bags, they were replaced by the newly-introduced rewards at the end of each personal story chapter. --Ventriloquist 09:55, 25 September 2014 (UTC)
No enemies in the personal story drop loot anymore period, actually. Vili 点 User talk:Vili 20:59, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
If that is right, the last paragraph of the walkthrough can be deleted. Balwin (talk) 12:48, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
Did this mission just now, went downstairs to check on her, no champion bag. None of the other enemies dropped anything either. --Ventriloquist 12:56, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
Well yeah; what Vili said, Vent: nothing drops anything in personal story at all. — snogratUser Snograt signature.png 13:58, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
Nono, I knew that, I was just confirming for the IP. --Ventriloquist 14:12, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
Heh, ok then. It's "siss-opp." — snogratUser Snograt signature.png 16:39, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
I'll admit, I got 10 stacks of confusion for a few moments, trying to make sense of your reply...but then it hit me; it's the pronunciation of sysop! I always thought it was (p)sy-op, for some reason, and I was saddened to find it was not. --Ventriloquist 21:42, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
There actually is a secret order of psionic warrior sysops. We'll let you know when we think you're ready. Felix Omni Signature.png 21:44, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
