Hi guys and gals,

Sorry we have not had a fun in a few weeks I have had out of game commitments the last few weeks but with the book 14 changes to the annuminas set and some deeds for Exploration, angmarim and spirits to go for, now is a good time to get back in there and farm the place.

I did this with a PUG the other day and it seems that the difficulty level has been reduced however it is now not possible to do the other quests without beating the boss so in that respect a failed boss kill means no quests completed.

Please refer to the Guide in this section for further info and where someone has more than 1 class available in most cases dps classes will be chosen due to their high demand for this fight.

Cheers,

Luk

FYI, I did all 3 instances successfully this weekend. Here's a summary of the changes.

The Gardens wasn't changed much. The 3 pools to cleanse are now at 2nd/3rd/4th levels rather than 1st/2nd/3rd previously. The Ranger with the map is now in Nengon's room, so yes you have to kill Nengon to finish that quest now. The Nengon fight itself seemed slightly easier in that he seemed to take more damage, though this could have been group makeup.

The Tombs was quite a bit easier. Limrafn's don't respawn and seemed less likely to summon. The 6 rooms are all easier (you now light a brazier instead of flipping a lever), but be aware that in some of them the door will close as soon as the mob inside is aggro'ed, so the group needs to keep together or risk being partially locked out. Shingrinder seemed the same except for the whacky knock-back issues, though we were able to do it with melee's at the fire braziers, tucked against the wall and ranged/healers at the entrance to the bridge, being careful not to pull his aggro. D&V were a bit of a pain with the big fire wounds but with pots we made it through (would have been much easier if we'd had a LM to remove wounds).

The Palace - This has the most changes. Now there are 2 Guards in the entry room. Take them to the white lights at the windows (some have suggested tanking one and handling them one at a time but we just did both), they'll each turn into 3 spirits. Take the spirits to the blue light in the center to kill them. The second room, the Guloth area, has 6 side chambers. There are now Angmarin at each entrance. Shortly after aggro'ing they'll try to run into the side room and call the spirits to come help them so mez them if you can. After clearing all, open the windows in each side room. The Guloth fight is now the hardest part until you figure out how to do it: if you keep moving the Guards to the white light in a side chamber then the spirits to the blue light out by where Guloth originally stands you can get through it pretty easily. We completed it by moving the entire group, including the tank on Guloth, from place to place to handle the adds. Just watch for the roots (Muster Courage) and keep the adds off of the tank.

I don't think we are going to have a run, seem that Angmar instances and Rift Raids are the top priority right now, if your on and ever want to run let me know but I am over trying to organise kin runs.

I'm doing them several times a week, Luk, so look for me any time you're on and there's a good chance we could get a run.
