Ykeshka's Outer Stronghold Bugs/problems

<p>1) The book quest "The Warlord's Tale" has two pages (Pages 5 and 8) that are dropped off mobs in their chests.  Unfortunately only one person can get this page, so this will be sitting in my journal for a long time.  Please change it so that EVERYONE on the quest can get this page.</p><p>2) The Chaos Spark forge now can only be in one person's inventory at a time.  Nobody else can get it.  Dropping group and trying to get it no longer works.  So, on the fights where it is needed, it seems the only other way you can damage the mobs is by getting some sort of detrimental.  Well, i never got it, so I had to AFK the whole fight.  That's dumb if that is intended.</p><p>agressiv</p><p>Edit: the Frog + Cow, I never got the detrimental, on the final boss, I was getting it fairly frequently.</p><p>Edit2: 2nd time on final named, i got detrimental twice, so I was AFK except for on statues.  That just doesnt seem right.  I can normally do 5-7k in this group, but was restricted to 1.1k because i simply couldnt do anything.</p>

<p>Yeah it was a novel idea for a mechanic but in the end it's about as entertaining as the doors in Poet's Palace were. You just sit there waiting for your turn to pop up. It'd probably be pretty labor intensive to overhaul though, so I guess it is what it is?</p><p>Two ways I could think to make it better would be first, there's two items that let anyone attack if they're holding them. And when they're used on another player it tosses the item between players. Thus you could coordinate, like the brig starts off with debuffs, tosses it to the assassin who pops a concealment chain, tosses it to warlock who hits focused casting and does the top of his order, etc.</p><p>Second you could have some other task that must be accomplished simultaneously, so that players have to multitask accomplishing these things while damaging the main mob when its turn pops up.</p>

Even without the item, this mob was killable. The item was added in due to player feedback in beta, as nothing more than a means for the tank to hold aggro, as with the random nature of the debuff effect, the tank was unable to generate enough aggro to hold the mob off healers.</p><p>It is not a DPS fight, it is not a tank and spank fight. It is a coordernation fight, nothing more, nothing less.</p>
