Crystal Caverns - Invading Ice - Capture a Terror step

    It's really hard to get the terror into the actual room. If you take him to other rooms he pops right in. Getting him into the intended room takes lots and lots of trial and error. The spider part was pain free in comparison.

    Lots of people I've spoken to have suggestions for this and that but all agree that it takes time and is a pain. Is there something stopping the terror getting into the room easily?

    Have you tried mage coth?
  3. Fredescu Augur

    Haven't tried coth. It did actually work after a while, but I don't think it's intended to take as long as it did. We had four to do, and two of the four took more than ten minutes. It's like it gets stuck on the little step before the room. Ultimately what worked was taking it downstairs, making it sure it follows you slowly and closely up the ramp, and back into the room step by step. It took more than one attempt at doing that though.

    If you go into the room next door though, the terror just pops in next to you.

    I have had this issue a lot. In my experience if the mob is snared (I am a ranger and snare everything) it doesn't want to go in. As soon as my snare would wear off after it's 10+ minutes left in the timer it would pop in the room no problem, don't levitate the thing trying to get it over the step, that makes it worse. Last time I did it I forced myself not to snare it and had no issues.

    That's interesting. It's quite likely they were snared.

    Ranger AA snare lasts 15 minutes too, so the time frame of approx 10 min is about right by the time ya get it back to town. And unfortunately you just have to wait out the timer.

    I did it on 3 different toons and each time I simply ran to the room and eventually the terror just warped to me (like a merc does) and updated the task. I didn't bother trying to "lead" it to the room, and it wasn't snared.

    I think you need to be patient. Get in the room and stay there until he warps to you. Dont leave and try to repath him or it will just take longer. He will warp to you just like if he was a mob on agro.

    We definitely sat in the room for minutes on end being patient. Surely if it hasn't popped in in 3 minutes, it's not going to, right? If you do need to wait longer than three minutes, doesn't that seem like a bug?

    The fact that it pops right in when you go into other rooms suggests to me it's getting stuck on something near that room. Hence why I think it's a bug. The spider escort works instantly, and the terror pops into other rooms. The concept works. There's just something getting in the way in this particular room (if it's snared perhaps?).
