Ishaal 68,78 up top in the tree

Zellek 69, 74 up top in the tree

Skizzik 69, 82 in the hut

For this quest you have 15 minutes to do it before the buff that allows you to see them wears off. They are all surrounded by a few guys but everything is easily soloable.

If you run out of time you'll need need another elixir from Serevin, who will require 6 more Shadow Dust to make it.

Approximately 3 minute respawn on each of them.

Post by SaltLick confirmed, those coordianters are correct.

Ishaal hit me with shadow word: pain which ticked about 413. (No shadow resist)

Skizzik used Psychic scream.

This is one of the most annoying solo quests I've done in ages. First you have to grind on these annoying hard-hitting Skettis mobs for six Shadow Dust simply so you can *see* the mobs you need to kill.

And then when you do, you also see a lot of other "Time-Lost" mobs, all standing on top of the regular mobs so you're often aggroing a half-dozen at the same time!

On top of that there are Elite treants wandering around the area, and when you try to fly up to the mobs in the treehouses the Monstrous Kaliri will aggro you -- and they don't even drop any loot!

When you inevitably die you have to get six more Shadow Dust just so you can try again.

What an absolute pain.

Coords are good but the npc are random to those place,, i saw a different one each time i went for zellek

Be prepared to die a gazillion times to shit respawning on top of you and birds aggroing from above while you're already fighting three mobs. One of the most annoying quests I've ever done.

评论来自 36554

It's hard to solo as a healer. also to do it within the time-limit you have. bring someone along with you if you're healing specced.

评论来自 jl4788

One of the worst / most annoying quests in the game. Died twice, killed 0 Talonpriests. Hardcore chain linking, flash healing, evade bugging mobs

评论来自 absorb

not to mention they chase you forever till ur dead

评论来自 Khabal

This wasn't as bad as I read here. With this area farmed so much, most (if not all) of the extra trash was being killed by everyone and their brother, leaving the re-spawning bosses pretty out in the open.

I'm sure it will be harder once this area isn't being farmed so much.

If you're a Mage, keep a stack of Light Feathers so you can Slow Fall off the towers in case you get overwhelmed.

First priest, no problem, killed a couple guys and pulled him onto the bridge - the healers were annoying but no big deal. After that though... evading birds, nuff said :-/

评论来自 38579

Skizzik is bugged for me, killed him twice. Dont get the quest done.

评论来自 55140

As a protection Warrior this was quite hard. The first two priests, Ishaal and Zellek were not too bad but Skizzik proved to be a royal pain in the behind! :-)

Due to all the other "hidden" mobs getting to him was fairly difficult because of their large aggro range, however I have found a good technique now:

Only use the Elixir of Shadow when you are inside the hut that he occupies (once you have killed the normal mob inside first). This means you won't pull any other mobs to you and you can kill him with ease.

:-)

评论来自 52714

Coord's right. If it didnt' work for you when you killed them double check to make sure you aren't in a raid. Even if you left your raid the night before sometimes it puts you back in it when you log back on.

As you're doing this quest you will pick up Ishaal's Almanac which gives you another quest https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/quest=11021

评论来自 PleegWat

Ishaal was the only nasty one (lock solo). 2 adds quite close too him, and the area isn't farmed so you have to clean the rest first yourself too. Managed it when I pulled the adds separate

评论来自 57455

Anyone else having issues completing this quest? Not from a difficulty standpoint, but actually not being able to complete it even after killing all three priests?

I must have killed Ishaal four or five times but haven't gotten credit for it...

评论来自 Vespers

Ishaal is the most important priest to kill. This quest has no direct follow-up; you have to loot Ishaal's Almanac to begin the questline that eventually has you kill Terokk.

If you really want, you can just kill Ishaal, get the Almanac, and ignore the rest of the priests.

评论来自 59419

AVOID the bridge when going to Ishaal.
All those annoying birds fly right over it and you will aggro at least 3 or more of them.

评论来自 35240

Even if you need the Elixir a few times you get rep every time you turn in the dust for it anyway. Win Win

评论来自 Zaroxen

And a good hint is to NOT drink the pot at the location of where the Talonpriests are supposed to be. :P
Noobish me did that and instantly had 5 of High Priests on me.

评论来自 st0rmy1

Just a note about Skizzik, when you enter the hut be warned, he likes to fear which will no doubt send you running outside and possibly aggroing mobs. When I did it the first time, he came with an add that ended up stunning me so watch out for those nasty stun/arcane missile/fear combos.

评论来自 64610

If you die on this quest the Elixer buff goes away = (. I also got feared into more mobs from Skizzik so definitely clear some of the mobs outside first.

评论来自 39530

As a Full Holy Pally i solo'ed this quest. I have a spell damage set with only about 5-6 hundred spell dmg. On Ishaal this is what u do. Mount up and fly to ishaal, demount on top of him.... pop a consecrate and exorcise or w/e just do a bit of burst dmg on him and fall off the tower... bubble or not... heal up and wait for them to come (it takes a while) when they come, do your normal burst dmg sequence on him and keep backing up. At a certain point the other (if u dont keep hitting them) will stop and despawn and you can fight ishaal solo. His "Flash Heal" heals for quite a bit. I just popped wings and a trinket after a Hammer of Justice and did exorcism, holy shock, judgement and then Hammer of Wrath and he died within the 6 sec stun and he never got a heal off. Any class can do this just when you jump off use a HS/Pot and bandage.

评论来自 slidewithme

They're only easily soloable if you can interrupt their heals, or you have really high DPS. Getting more than two on you is also a really bad idea. -_-

评论来自 StrangerWifCandy

Also, I'm not sure if this has been mentioned yet but you can pull the Time-Lost and regular living guys seperately, e.g. There's a time-lost priest and a Skettis Wincaller standing on top of each other, if I use throw on one of them, the other won't aggro.

评论来自 4361

Most. Annoying. Quest. Ever.

I (lvl70 fire mage) died four times for different reasons when trying to kill Ishaal. You die, the buff is gone, and then you can start collecting Shadow Dust again for the drug cocktail.

Stack up on cocktails, people, you might need a few.

评论来自 RealUnimportant

Zellek is on the tree WITH the ramp... I fought my way to the second tree (where the escort can spawn) only to find I'd gone straight past him :(

Oh, priests - don't forget that a) these mobs are undead, so can be shackled; b) these mobs are undead, so can't be feared.

评论来自 49949

what a bunk quest, bugged to all hell. Half the npcs I attack are immune to everything, but I'm not immune to their attacks. I dropped this a wont ever pick it up again

评论来自 84646

On my 70 mage(currently specced arcane for al'ar) i downed these guys without a hitch....just be smart and pull the adds so you dont have too many at once, and dont be afraid to reset them if you have to.

评论来自 Tsark

Interestingly, if you're a healer and grouping up with someone, you do not need the Elixir of Shadows to be active on you. I was helping a friend by healing him, because I was in Skettis and had forgot my Elixirs in the bank. I got full credit for the quest, and once the Time-lost arakkoa were dead, I could even loot them (and get the Almanac from Ishaal). Of course, you actually do need the Elixir to target him and dps.

评论来自 65203

Using the coordinates on here, I flew through this with 9 minutes left, from the 15 minute potion.

Ele Shaman, so no CC, but I fully admit to being over-geared (full-epic Tier 4 level gear). I was able to 3 shot all the named mobs, who literally died before they had chance to do anything.

Ishaal did only have one priest near him though, and the pull wasn't linked.

This was easy for me, but only because I am over-geared and my class is good for burst damage. I can understand why some speccs could have problems.

评论来自 81639

Totally shitt quest, most annoying ever. It takes app 30 min to gather the mats for a 15 min buff that fades when u die, which u will do if u aint full t6 rogue or something. This Q says that it isnt a group Q, but guess what, bring 2 others with u or dont ever bother. :@ Gotta hate blizzard for afflicitng u with this pain!

评论来自 66445

Me (70 shammy) and a bud of mine (70 balance druid) 2-manned this quest to make it go quicker... the druid died from one of the MANY adds in the fight and i survived... i hav the potion effect and the druid didnt so i asked if shed help me by healing me and id do the same when she got her potion... turns out when i killed the 2nd priest she got credit even though she couldnt attack or even see him... so the lesson is - dont waste an hour getting 5 potions... just hav a bud go with u. if one dies, than thats still ok =D Hope it helps

评论来自 TheMuffinMan

Easily solo'd as a Frost Mage. I actually three-shotted Ishaal.

Overall, the real problem is clearing out mobs, or if you're melee.
Just bring plenty of potions if you're a Rogue or Warrior and you should be fine, or at least able to kill the Priest before the adds kill you.

评论来自 93853

Easy as a rouge, just went in, used all my cooldowns on the and then vanished after the talonpriest died

评论来自 61489

Quest is easier now. You have 20minutes on the buff so you don't have to hurry so much. Soloed at lvl 70 combat rogue

评论来自 95460

Anyone claiming this can be soloed, is probably full of it. As soon as you drink the potion there are ghosts attacking you from all directions. Maybe a tank can survive this but anyone with ranged attacks can expect two or three on top of them. Ranged attackers also will face line of sight problems.

Even as a hunter this quest is not easily soloable. There is too much agro to take at once and they can heal.

评论来自 71213

the people who say they solo this are just lucky. do yourself a favor and take a friend. and by the way, you can't see them without using the elixir of shadows.

评论来自 25322

This quest is not that difficult. I was able to do it with no probs with my Demonology/Destruction lock. You just have to kill the surrounding mobs first before attacking the Talon Priests.

评论来自 67896

i just did this as a prot warrior wearing all blues.

with sikizzik and zellek, i just ran in there and took out all the mobs, but with ishaal i jumped onto him, activated shield wall and took him out then ran from the mobs, only used the single elixir from the first bit of the quest.
i used a mixture of last stand and super healing potions while killing ishaal

评论来自 87273

Terrible quest when you only get 7g or so, I used map notes to help me out, and died once...but I did it in 7 minutes.

评论来自 Rygaux

wasnt that hard as a boomkin... Ishaal and his mobs chased me off of the tower and follwed me down to the ground... i rean to break combat and only Ishaal followed, the others reset... The flash heal was a pain in the ass until I casted my Trents. Along with the druid dots, he was dead within seconds.

评论来自 Contay

I was struggling with this quest on my Shadowpriest until I realized after trying to psychic scream three off of me, when I realized...

"Hey! These are undead!"

Shackle works wonders for this quest. Made killing the last two priests a breeze, being able to deal with only one add or just maybe even the priest itself, then a moment to bandage. =)

评论来自 117996

The coords 68,78 are a little misleading... he is not on top of the tree planted in the island. Also my elixir gave me 20 min of being able to see them.

评论来自 110508

I pulled ishaal with 2 other priests but managed to take him with life drain and stuff like that. Pretty easy if you take him alone, at least as a lock.

评论来自 26079

This quest is practically impossible to solo as a resto druid. He's got a huge mana pool and there's no way to interrupt his flash heals reliably.

评论来自 Guntak

Better coordinates, in order from closest to the quest camp to farthest:

Zellek: 70.0, 74.2 Tree

Ishaal: 69.0, 78.2 Tree

Skizzik: 69.8, 81.1 Hut

评论来自 126420

Soloed as a 70 combat/hemo rogue. No trouble except with Ishaal, but I was able to kill him before the adds overtook me.

Make sure to loot him though, he drops a book that starts a quest.

评论来自 102628

SaltLick 's coords were a little off. I found them here:

Ishaal 69.19,78.42 (up the tree that has tunnel, NOT tree on island)
Skizzik 69.88,82.10 hut
Zellek 69.92,74.40 top of tree
I hope this helps! I myself had problems cause of the coords i followed (before i found these) and only could do the quest once my warlock friend helped me lol

评论来自 CloudFish

In my opinion this quest was easy! Took less than 10 mins as a level 70 feral druid with ok gear. All i did was find the locations of the mobs (with the coordinates) land on the closest bridge (both times i aggroed no birds) and drink a elixir, then i stealthed to the location of the named mob, these seem to have realy low health, only a few mangles and they died, even with 2-4 mobs i stayed in cat and quickly killed the priest, then healed and tanked the adds, closest i came to death with 3 extra mobs was 3k health, NONE of the priests used any spells/abilitys because i took them down too fast, so seems the best think to do is burn down the priest befor he has the time to act and THEN go for the adds. this was ny first try so could have gotten lucky

评论来自 drame

easyly killed ishaal as a combat specced rogue i put on adrenalin rush and blade flurry + slice and dice and just hit him with mind numb poison II easy killed when done i vanished

评论来自 JonnyBigBoss

This quest is rather difficult to solo. I am a demonology Warlock and was barely able to handle some of the pulls. I recommend 2 manning this if you aren't a very good soloing spec.

评论来自 63475

This is easily the most annoying quest I have ever had to undertake. Downing the talonpriests was easy, the adds were pie but those damn Monstrous Kalari kept gang raping me. I died at least 8 times doing this and went through 3 elixers. Take some potions and do it at peak hours on your server so the place is relatively clear from mobs etc.

(70 frost mage)

评论来自 64110

Gosh, dont fight Ishaal at the bridge if you can avoid it, i got the birds as well and adds. Sure i did beat him down since i could FD to reset the others but damn.

评论来自 145264

Just got done doing this quest. The mobs were where the top post stated. For the two that are up on tree platforms, there's a simple trick to fight them alone. Land on the ledge where they are, aggro them and then jump off and run away. The talonpriests will follow you for a FAR greater distance than the other mobs you'll aggro.

Once you have just the talonpriest still on you, kill it. This will work for Ishaal and Zellek. Skizzik is in a hut with one other mob. The best bet is to save a potion just for him. Go into his hut and kill the mob there, then use the potion. He will fear you once every 30 seconds and life siphon every 20 seconds. Should be easily soloable for any class.

I did the whole thing solo as a holy priest.

评论来自 85428

Should also be noted that you use the "Elixir of Shadows" vial in order to see said mobs ;)
I was kind of dumb and went to the coords listed and realized I couldn't see a named mob, but then saw the comment said at the end of the post :P

AS A BM HUNTER THIS IS STUPID, MY PET APPARENTLY CANT C THE MOBS AND CANT ATTACK THEM SO IM TRYING TO KITE LIKE A &*!@ING MORON ON THE BRIDGE #$%^ING STUPID BLIZZ

评论来自 gilean23

So am I missing something? Somehow as a hunter, even if I use Hunter's Mark on one of these mobs, my pet will NOT attack them at all, turning me into a crappy warrior wearing chain... which of course doesn't end up working out well at all.

Edit: he will attack once per attack command... if I keep spamming "pet attack" it's enough to keep aggro for long enough to get some damage done.

评论来自 168200

When i did it, as a hunter, my pet wouldnt target the shadow mobs that appear with the elixir including the three you need to kill for the quest. I had to annoyingly kite, pull extra mobs, and three or four times die cause my pet wouldnt fight at all. I dont know if it was glitched for me, but it was very annoying.

评论来自 63954

If you run out of the elixir after you managed to kill all but one talonpriest, do you have to abandon and get the elixir again and start over?

评论来自 173552

The Elixir of Shadows does not apply to pets which can make this quest very frustrating for a hunter. I tried running in with guns blazing and met a quick death due to the number of adds. I also tried kiting 1-2 mobs at a time but that also failed due to the difficulty of kiting on the tree tops and the unseen bird adds.

What finally worked for me was to switch to melee as my primary attack. Pulling the shadow mobs one at a time and using the following sequence got me through each of the talon priests on the first try (you're mileage may vary based on gear).

Drop a Freezing Trap, pull while standing in front of the trap to save it for later or for adds
Pull single mob with Serpent Sting + Arcane Shot (adding a concussive shot may allow you an extra ranged attack)
Melee with Raptor / Mongoose Strike as often as they are available

Notes:
Recommend stepping back for an arcane/multi anytime your targeted mob starts a spell castStep behind your trap anytime you need to bandage or pop a health potion

评论来自 Allakhazam

With the co-ords posted here and the info about avoiding adds, and the time limit of the potion, I was able to kill all 3 of the targets within 5 minutes of drinking my potion. Proof again that united we can take on anything ;)

评论来自 Allakhazam

As a level 70 frost mage, I had so much trouble with the crappy birds evading me. My water elemental wouldn't be able to see them and practically all my spells were evaded. Until Blizzard fixes this stupid bug, I'm not even attempting this quest.

评论来自 Allakhazam

to do it on a hunter you have to set a key for pet attack and constantly mash it and at some point turn on autoattack. basically the pet attacks once each time you tell him to attack.

评论来自 Allakhazam

I just read your posts on here and I rarely post anything but have to say that reaching to 70 to find that my shaman struggle to take down one bird has left me really frustrated with the game. I find it hard to buy equipment, after my flying mount I have little gold and I had hoped that getting to 70 would mean I could join some serious players in my guild and all I have found is the game just goes onto another level of cost and competition over equipment. So, thoroughly disilusioned really. I like difficult game play when grouped which involves me in making a lot of decisions about stuff: when it is just difficult because I can't survive against mobs because I lack power and health, and the game play is just me waiting for the cool down on casts and whatever, then it is just plain boring and poor.

For some reason my framerate dropped to 3fps while I was using the Elixir of Shadows and went back up to ~35 as soon as it wore off. Anyway 3fps is so choppy that it was nearly impossible to kill anything. Dropped the quest...

评论来自 Allakhazam

OK...tried this quest several times...its even a pain getting the elixir lol. The thing i found is that my pet will not attack Ishaal...just stands there looking at him throwing out the occasional bite. Anyone have any ideas on this....gave up and ressed at GY.....will prolly cost me a fortune in repairs...but i learned!

worst quest in all game lol

i did with a mage, but died 2 times, and whats worse.. everytime u die u have to get more dust to make another of those potions.

The mobs have lots of adds, and they are realy priests... they use shadow word pain, fear, etc.

i just went running in, and nuked out the priest and runned away, but not many classes can do that soo.. good luck xD

Just did this solo as a spriest, thought id share how...

The 2 located up in the trees, if you land in the middle where the eggs you bomb, u can aggro the main mob (I used ranged, which didnt land on him but did get his attention), others might aggro but after 20 secs the main mob just jumps/appears up to your ledge! Easy killing ;) You leave combat once you kill the named mob, or at least I did - hope this will help others, gl :)

(stolen from other posters, might save time scanning posts if you only want coords)

Zellek 70,74 - Trees
Ishaal 69, 78 - Trees
Skizzik 70, 82 - In house on the ground.

评论来自 Allakhazam

This quest is annoying. You need the powders to get the potion, which allows you to see the elites. However, if you die, the elixir effect disappears and you have to quest to get more. Waste of time IMHO, but you need it for the rest of the chain.

I just wanted to mention that I HATE HATE HATE this quest and will NEVER EVER EVER do it again on any alt.

Avoid this quest unless you're going for exalted with Skyguard. This quest couldn't possibly be worth the effort it takes to get through it.

You will die, probably multiple times, and you will be frustrated.

And you will get a very meager reward for your efforts..

I had no hus or fus with this quest, except that I didn't go to alla before I started it to find the boss locations. The trick with killing the Ishaal is simple. Take your mount, if you ever encounter birds, just land on a bridge kill them, and go again. On Ishaal's platform there are 2 mobs close, 1 solo, another solo, and ishaal. Land on one of the solo's take it out, pull the other solo near ishaal, then you can pull ishaal without agroing the 2 close ones, simple.

评论来自 Allakhazam

Don't see why everyone seems to have trouble with this, as long as you're careful it's not hard. Although if you think you can do it with only one elixir you're likely deluding yourself.

评论来自 Allakhazam

Holy crap this quest is so not worth it. the 7g+ you get as reward won't even cover your f'ing repairs from trying to complete this, and you only get 275 honor.

Coords.
Zellek: 69.74, he is in a tower. Zellek is the hardest of the 3 to get as he has the most mobs around him and is the hardest to pull on his own. (I died 3 times just on him)

Skizzik: 69.78, he is on the ground inside a hut. Skizzik is the easiest of the three. Just fly to the hut, maybe take out 1 or 2 mobs walking around the area.

Ishall: 69.78, you can clear the mobs around him and take him one on one. But if your caster, he can be tough, he heals himself (thus, those with a spell lock, or other type of anti-spell stun, use it only when he tries to heal.

Granted, I am lvl 70 holy/Disc priest, so these kills were probably harder for me than for other classes.

Strictly speaking, this quest DOES NOT lead to another quest. Ishall will drop a book which you turn in, that leads to the next chain of quest. If you want to save some trouble, just kill Ishall, and then abandon the quest :)

评论来自 Allakhazam

Careful on this quest, if you die you must gather 6 more shadow dust to get the potion again. Helps to have a helper with you cause Ishaal is surrounded by healers. Party members who didn't drink the potion will still get credit when you kill them.

评论来自 Allakhazam

Maybe they nerfed these guys in a recent patch.. I read all the comments and thought it was going to be hell.

i already had 2 shadow potions to see them (Each lasts 15 minutes)

I did the ground boss first, which was quite easy to solo as a feral druid.

I flew to Ishaal next (Who drops an item you need to turn in for another quest chain as well).. I unmounted on the other side of the roof hut from him, killed his 4 friends (They pull in 2s.. kill the healer first.. if you can bash/stun/disrupt the healer it makes it easier). Then killed Ishaal.. I didn't see any birds at all during this encounter.

Went to the third guy Zellek and it was the exact same encounter, but one bird joined in during the 2-man kill prior to pullin Zellek.. the bird eventually just flew away.

Anyway, it wasn't hard at all, didn't nearly die.. didn't curse blizzard.. just went about my business.

评论来自 Allakhazam

The co-ordinates in the previous post are precisely accurate. Unfortunately, the description is slightly melodramatic, so let me simplify this for you.

69,82 - Skizzik. Kill the mob in his hut BEFORE consuming the potion. There shouldn't be too much activity outside the hut to worry about.

69,74 - Zellek. On the top floor with a couple of his cohorts keeping him company. Pull them onto the crosswalk and decimate them there. Exercise some
caution as birds may join in here to make it more interesting.

69,78 - Ishaal. Again, on the top floor. Go up the middle of the tree and try and pull his cohorts one by one into the ramp which runs up the middle of the tree and pick them off individually. At worst you might end up with 2 at a time.

Loot Ishaal, mount up and fly back for the hand in.

Completed as 70 druid with 6 minutes remaining on the potion. No deaths.

评论来自 Allakhazam

I got cocky and tried to go straight for Zellek, the adds around him soon came. After jumping off the trees and running away to the water, I found ONLY Zellek was still chasing me and I was able to kill him with ease, it cost me a Hearthstone :( hehe. By the way I am not boasting I solo'd him, this is a solo quest.

Ishaal just dropped an item to start a quest, I don't know if he drops everytime so look out for it.
伊沙尔的历书 Skizzik is at 70, 82 (on the ground), for those of you without Co-Ords, look on your map for the word "Skettis", this guy is around the letter "K".

I did this one in a group, but after first boss my elixir worked out. So I couldn't see them, luckily for me, I'm a healer and healed my companion who killed the other two :-)

Found them at:
Zellek 70,74 - Trees
Ishaal 69, 78 - Trees
Skizzik 69, 62 - Ground in a building.

As of patch 2.1.1, this is still bugged - birds still randomly evade - making it nearly impossible to take them down. P.I.T.A. quest.

This was the most annoying, difficult, expensive quest with lots of bad luck for me!

As a lvl 70 arms/fury wrr I thought it would be piece of a cake, another "clear the area and get the named mob quest". I wish.

The guy on the ground was ok, I cleared the area, drank the previously received potion and got him.
Then we get to the tricky part. The guys in the trees are really hard, not becouse of their adds (they are easilly pullable) but the freaking birds (Kaliris) everywhere!
Stading on the bridge just aggros them all! I really, really hate those.
Ofc, I got killed several times... I can handle 2 mobs without any problem, but when I fought the priests, every time 2-3 birds attacked me!
One of the attempts, I had 7(!) birds dead on the bridge, then they began to respawn!
Results at last: 7 potions (x6 dusts), about 150 arrakoas killed, 10-12 deaths, 45g repair bill.
This quest opens a chain, so it has to be done, but I think this was the most sh*tty quest ever!

Hungry Nether Rays IS NOT required to open this quest, however World of Shadow is. (And like it says, quite possibly Fires Over Skettis.) Received this quest before completing Hungry Nether Rays and watched this quest become available after turning in World of Shadow. Not sure if this is a simple mix up or if it has been changed.

I just completed this quest with no problems as a 70 Mage. I flew to the co-ordinates, pulled the adds (Note the named mobs didn't link with the adds) and once I had cleared the adds the priests were cake. One bird went into an evade bug for me, but I backed away and once it followed me it went back to normal. Hope this helps

It took me two elixirs. Here's what I learned:

1) Do not go to the location the Talonpriest is and then drink it. You'll just get the priest, plus 3 or 4 other mobs, attacking you. Instead, drink it nearby, then look for a safe spot to land. Pull the adds 1-2 at a time.

2) Talonpriest Ishaal, who was my first target, has a Flash Heal skill that restores himself back to full health. Had I been prepared for this, I probably would not have died, despite the 2 other mobs. So, be ready to interrupt his heal.

when you complete this quest the guy says "salami a &*!@# alarm"...worth doing just to hear him say that.

:)

I came here and read all the posts. Thought, ok... I'll try it and see how it goes. Wonderful directions here, I won't argue that, but for those who crow about how easy it was, "BITE ME".

I found Ishaal right where everyone said he'd be. Killed the one and only live mob, pulled one ghost, and died when Ishaal and his other 3 buddies came running. I floated back up the stairs, rezzed, buffed, pulled one and rinse and repeat. If I was going for exalted rep, maybe. This quest joins a very few others on my list whose annoyance and damage value outweighs it's reward (loot is another quest and reward is 7g). I dumped it.

Worst quest I've ever had the displeasure of taking part in. Bugs, infinite aggro, flocks of soulless birds... I don't care what quests it opens up.

评论来自 Allakhazam

ishaal: 69.78 on a tree platform
skizzik: 70.82 in a hut
zellek: 69.74 on a tree platform
did it all solo with a 70 druid, very easy

Quest details updated.

评论来自 Allakhazam

The elixir buff no longer disappears after death now. Its easier, but I died twice on my shaman before completing it. There's lots of mobs in the areas.

评论来自 Allakhazam

Coords confirmed.
Not too hard to solo as level 70 balance druid. Just fly to the bridge, then drink the potion, pull the nearest guard, kill him, then slay the talonpriest. Fight from the bridge, avoid the birds. Easy. Problems can just occur, when you aggro too many of them, so pull carefully.
The talonpriest in the house on the ground is far too easy.

评论来自 Allakhazam

soo, all told I went in cautious expecting a major battle from all the comments, but this was rather easy, fly in, deal with a few adds and kill non-elites. Biggest kink was that the Kaliri birds kept aggroing on one of the bridges so had to kill several in a row, they do worse damage than any of the bosses. (warlock with blueberry tanking)

The thing I wanted to note is, one of the bosses drops an item that starts the followup quest, so don't forget to loot. And IF you have spare time after killing the last boss, farm the Time-lost undead mobs for some Time-Lost Scrollss.

You're gonna need those for a follow-up, and it would be a major pain to have to get another elixir to see the mobs :P

评论来自 Allakhazam

The potion only lasts 15 minutes. If you are solo, it can be very difficult to find and kill all three of these mobs in time, especially considering they are surrounded by adds (often healers!). Oh, and you lose the potion effect if you die as well.

I had to grind out another six dusts (with their terrible drop rate) because I was only able to kill 2/3 using the first potion.

评论来自 Allakhazam

Okay, I died plenty of times trying to figure out how to do this quest. I think I finally got it.

Talonpriest Skizzik and Talonpriest Zellek are easy. They shouldn't give you any problem. Talonpriest Ishaal is the problem. I ended up killing him twice in a row, solo, without any difficulties with the below method. (And remember, when you kill him the first time, LOOT HIM so you get the almanac that starts a quest, or you'll have to kill him agaim!)

Follow these steps and report back whether they helped:

1. Kill the live Skettis dude on the platform where Ishaal will appear. You don't want an extra guy getting in the way.

2. Fly to the tree branch above the platform and land, directly where Ishaal appears. Wait for two of the big nasty birds to find you and kill them. Evading is minimal here, but still happens. Stick it out and make sure you get two birds.

3. Go to the bridge and wait for two more birds to attack, then go to the edge of the platform to kill them, where evading is minimal. Make you sure get two more birds, for a total of four.

4. Drink your potion.

5. Draw the first ghost to your left toward you and kill him near the edge of the platform or on the bridge.

6. Go to your right and kill the next ghost.

7. There will be 3 left as you go around, including Ishaal. Target him and kill him first. As soon as he dies, LOOT HIM. Then try to kill the other two. If you don't make it, at least you got Ishaal and get his almanac.

Nasty, nasty quest, especially with evading birds, but I think this method should work. By the way, I used a level 70 hunter for this. I had to melee the birds some of the time, which was nasty, but helps prevent them from evading.

Good luck.

I felt compelled to comment:
70 warrior. I've now died 5 times, trying to do this within the alloted 20 minutes and I can honestly say i've never been so F---ing frustrated in my life. The birds that drop you from your mount, the cluttered ghost birds, and the mobs that are visible w/o the pots.

Honestly, I'm wondering if the rep. is worth it.

lol,abandoned...

评论来自 Allakhazam

This quest was a major pain in the butt - My husband and I did it together and by being cautious, we completed it.

Make sure your remember that Shizzik is on the ground, not in the trees like the other two!

评论来自 Allakhazam

Don't really know what the problem is with this quest cause i had no problems :/
combat rogue.

评论来自 Allakhazam

Yeah, I'm pretty stoked on this quest right now. After getting killed the first time in a freakin' mob fest cluster, I cheerfully looked up the quest to get some tips. After reading the horror stories here I figured I'd give the quest another shot any ways using some of the advice from the previous posters.

My second attempt has resulted in me getting killed again due to a massive lag-fest right when I engaged Skizzik. I'm really happy to start all over again from the begining. Maybe if I'm really lucky I can repeat this process a few more times.

评论来自 Allakhazam

Frankly, thanks to many of you that have gone before, I managed to do this using only one potion. Since you've got to be lv70 to get these (needing a flying mount to get into the area), this tactic should work for everyone.

Well, not everyone. I'm a lv70 BM-spec Hunter, so I can FD and run a pet to pull all the aggro. :)

First, I went to the co-ordinates for Talonpriest Skizzik (69,82 in hut on ground). Landing on the TOP of the hut, I drank he potion, dropped in front of the door, and wasted Skizzik & a normal Windcaller. Mount up, fly STRAIGHT UP.

(In case you were wondering, the straight up tactic gets you the hell off the ground, and out of aggro range of everything, INCLUDING the birds. Make sure you go fairly high, though.)

Talonpriest Zellek was easier. Potion active, flew to his co-ordinates (69,74), and took a good gander at his platform. around the back of it, opposite the rope bridge entrance, there's sometimes a little gap, just big enough to land and dismount without drawing aggro. Land, annihilate at will, mount and go. I got a Time-Lost Scroll from him, too.

Talonpriest Ishaal (69,78) was the beastly one. His platform is loaded, nowhere to land and stage a guerilla attack from. I wound up dumping in on top of him, blasting him down, looting, and diving off the platform to my death.

Why jump? Frankly, because I knew it was a lost cause, I was getting it from at least 8 mobs. At least I saved my pet from croaking, too.

Caution: MAKE SURE YOU LOOT BEFORE YOU SCOOT!

I found this quest pretty easy. Landing on the rope bridges near the priest in the trees and single pulling the extra ghosts worked for me. If one of the monstrous Kaliri attack you fly straight up... the seem to hit you less and they will follow you to the ground but only so far straight up. Also I'm a mage so I don't die from falls. Other than that I used Taurusk's coords and strategy.

评论来自 Allakhazam

HATE this q ffs Blizz

评论来自 Allakhazam

Easy way to do this quest... If you're grouped with a healer only the attacker should use the potion. The healer should not. This allows the attacker to kill the mob and the healer to heal without aggro. The healer will get credit for it.

评论来自 Allakhazam

I understand fully that by the time you hit 70, quests should be harder. But this is just f**king stupid. I can't even kill Ishaal because the "Monstrous Kaliris" keep spawning from the air inches above my head, obviously causing me to die. If I can't fight the damn thing, then make the ability to see it a bit easier to do, I've spent an hour at least just collecting the soul dust for these "attempts", if you can call them that, more like suicide missions.

评论来自 Allakhazam

as a newbie i was wondering how problematic this Q would be and, to be sure, I died, heh, mainly by following some of the advice here. I don't have the skills to fight multiples. Anyway, here's how I, a Shad Priest, did this.

69,82 - Skizzik. Kill the mob in his hut BEFORE consuming the potion. There shouldn't be too much activity outside the hut to worry about. (cut and pasted this from a prevous post..worked perfectly). Now the clock is ticking. Half hour to go

Talonpriest Ishaal (69,78) I died here :) by landing on the platform, stupid of me. Ress'd and took the stairs, walked up, pulled one mob and then Ishaal seperatly. Easy. Hope it's as easy for you. Mounted up and flew towards Zellek.

Talonpriest Zellek was easier. (69,74). Landed on the rope bridge, pulled 1 mob, and then him. Job done.

Flew back to Blackwind Landing with 10 minutes to spare.

Good help on these posts. However, I couldn't see skizzik until i drank the potion. The rest was not bad - tried to avoid birds - one potion no deaths 70 lock w/ void out.
