Strategy

Stage 1: Assault Troopers

At event start, raid is summoned to the Elddar camp.

Trackers - Locate and max range kill Spotters.

Kill Assault Trooper waves.  First wave spawns at event start, followed by two more waves three minutes apart.

Players emoted with War Wasps run away from raid until buff fades, minimum 500 steps.

Once add waves are dead, move northwest to stage two plateau area using the Lev Up map label.


Stage 2: Ogna, the Artisan of War -- Jangle, catapults and other adds

Stay mounted for this portion of event.

Assigned group take out the four catapults as well as the indifferent adds surrounding them.

MT position Ognar in the center of the three weapon racks.  Ognar will tether and reset to full HP if moved past the weapon racks.

Adds spawn at Ogna HP percentages.

Use Efreeti Carpet mount to prevent being knocked off plateau from Jangle's knockback AE.

Jangle Axe Toss - Stack on Ogna to share damage with raid (trigger warns).

Sticky Tick Tocker - Use Rune clicky when emote fires to avoid massive AE damage to raid.

When Jangle seals the area and calls out defective unit number, move into the vacant space to avoid Haze Bomb.

Start Event

Event is triggered by keyword, speaking with Thornel Grayleaf and using keyword ready.

Thornel Grayleaf says, 'Welcome, friends. You have arrived just in time, I hope. The Rallosian army is setting up their siege weaponry. They are certainly preparing a full-scale attack on this camp. We are considering leaving, but that option isn't really open either. The enemy has set up spotters in the woods. Every time we try to move, the catapults they already have up fire on us with disturbing accuracy. It is time for us to find [another way]. If this fight is not for you, I can help you [leave] if you wish.'

Thornel Grayleaf says, 'Well, I am thinking about a direct assault. It's certainly dangerous, but staying here will soon be more dangerous.  If we can destroy their siege weapons, we can at least escape. That, however, isn't my goal here. My desire is to end this, to drive them back onto their boats and out of my forest.'

Dagnor Butcherblock says, 'That's a nice plan, lad. But there's more to it than that and you know it. They will send assault teams to pick off anyone that flees their catapults, or even drive right into the camp if they ken and kill us themselves. Ask him what he [plans] ta do 'bout that?'

Thornel Grayleaf says, 'It's not complicated, my friend. We deal with the assault forces as we move toward the catapults. It's just more steps in a simple plan. 'Thornel smiles at you from what seems an endless well of hope. 'We don't have long to prepare, so let me know when you are [ready], and we can go.'

Thornel Grayleaf says, 'Good, good. No time to spare, let's be off. I'll trust to your instincts when it comes to fighting. I'll stay here and try to help these people.'
