DoDH Testing - Vule spawning in pick zones.

As bobbybick mentioned, you can corpse through that click down iirc. Just need one group to get Keyed downward, like Praesertum except this should spawn in picks instantly which won't be too bad.

Alternatively increase the number of progression drops from Keleborn and Vule type mobs to allow TLPs to flag after single kills.

You're one to talk. Yes, you are forever branded as "that guy" who spilled the beans on Velious out of era gear.

According to allas the quest Memories Lost for the key to Vule's area is now a group task.

This task grants you access to Master Vule's area and takes approximately 2 hours. This is now a group task, and every person in the group gets flagged.

Someone in the comments of Keleborn's page says he's an hour spawn. Flagging 6 people every hour doesn't seem like a block to me, especially if he spawns in picks.

The problem is that he can be permakilled by one guild to block everyone else from progression.

Maybe it will be harder with pickzones, but it is still possible. It was done on Fippy.

On Fippy, Citizen permacamped him for three days straight so that Twisted Legion could not gain access to Vule until we had enough keys to raid DPOB. Every 48 minutes for three days straight we were prepared to DPS race a full raid if needed (and several times during that stretch it was needed.) We didn't need the flags, we just needed TL to NOT have the flags because we didn't want to have to contest Vule.

Permacamping Keleborn sounds a lot harder with picks being a thing.... locking down one zone is easy, locking down 5 or 10 (however many picks there ends up being) is extremely difficult.

It'll be like PoStorms was; super contested and gross for the first week or so.

Keleborn is significantly faster than POStorms.

• Storms was approximately 9 keys every 4 hours per instance.
  • 4 hour respawn on 6 mobs that each drop 3 half keys, (6(mobs)*3(half keys))/2 = 9
• Keleborn is approximately 36 keys every 4 hours per instance.
  • 40 minute respawn on 1 mob that drops 6 full keys, 6(flags)*(240/40) = 36

If Storms was contested for a week, Keleborn will be contested for a couple of days.

Bring your enough homies to pop a pick, get it done in an easy breezy afternoon.

Keep in mind picks no longer work like they did back in PoP. No more holding picks open with one person until server resets.

You can summon/coth but just like VP if you say the phrase with out being keyed she just tells you that you don't belong here.

Anyone know what the task lockout timer is for the new Vule task?

just under a week (6.5 days). its the same as all "agent of change" raid instances, despite not coming from an agent of change. not sure if an oversight or not, would think a 4.5 or 5.5 day lockout would be more inline with depths content
