DEVs - How do you sneak into Neriak to get items from moving crates?

NAGANO1 · 05-25-2007, 12:20 AM

I posted an earlier thread about a down below to sneak into Neriak. Apparently due to Legend and Lore the City doesn't have this capability. That being said is there some way to get other players and characters into the city to get items out of your moving crate that are not yours? The mobs are level 75 - reflective of the City earning the title city of hate and would be a challenge to anyone trying to sneak in without some for of access route.

The guards don't see through invis, you can waltz right through with the help of a friend or totem. I don't know if they see through stealth, so you may want to avoid totems that provide both if that's the case. I had no problems getting all the discovery XP in Neriak with invis today.

Yep, invis works just fine. Just make sure you cancel any pets you have up before trying to pass the guards...

The guards outside the entrance (heroic 55) see through my wizard's invis (level 37) just fine. And because they 1-shot kill me, I can't get past them to experiment with the guards inside. So no, if somebody moved your no-trade belongings into Neriak, getting them back is an issue.

This is because any mob that cons red to you will antomatically see invis, much the same as you automatically see any invis mob that is grey to you, whether you have see invis or not.

Which is precicely the OP's point. If somebody moved to Neriak and brought my no-trade furnature with them via moving crate, I have no way of retrieving them short of organizing a city raid to slaughter all the epic guards in my way.

The Neriak guards are no joke. Epic 74^^^ (x4).

I ate a Totem of Chameleon at level 37 and they laughed at me. Actually laughed. And pointed. Those [Removed for Content].

Was sort of wondering if there is a secret entrance myself. But then I was all like, Man, the Neriak guards are no joke.

We should get the ratonga to tunnel a little side passage. I tried with my 70 wizard. I could invis and the red halo on the guards' names disappeared indicating they could not see me. I went through the gate and was one shotted. I didn't think about my diety and achievement pets, though, I could try it without them. But... even so.. someone who is not 70 should be able to get in to buy and/or retrieve house items from a moving crate.

So... IS there any way to sneak someone in to Neriak? I'd love to hear any way at all, but preferably that does not involve a series of extremely costly and painful deaths or the wholesale slaughter of the guards...

Get a friendly highlevel conjurer to just summon you to where you need to be, other then that level to 80 use an invso totem/spell/etc and there you go.
