Eminent Aug Quest

[Aldier]

Send an in game /bug is the best way to submit that.

I doubt it is bugged. I suspect if you were killing on Sunday and Monday that there could have been an issue with the scripting for it but that has been fixed. There is a 1% chance that after 12 kills you would have 0 impressions. Not great odds, but not completely out of the realm of posibilities given the fickle nature of the RNG.

[Ngreth Thergn]

Yup. It depends when you did it.

If you did it in that unlucky time of Sunday/Monday when servers were having problems, that is possibly what happened

Otherwise the quest works.

The first seven kills were done two weeks ago over two days. I got two of the kills on this Tuesday and three of the kills on this Wed. No kills were during the problem time period on Sunday and Monday. I guess I have the worst luck in the world with the RNG.

Finally got my first impression on my 14 th kill. I have now killed 16 out of 20 strong sentinels and still have only 1 impression. The rate of impressions seems out of whack to me.

You are always going to surpass the number of required kills before you get all your impressions, just the nature of the beast. But it does sound like youve been very unlucky.

[Bobaten]

For comparison, it took me 12 kills to get my first impression from mammoths for the exalted quest.
I still got all the impressions before I had 20 killed. The rng is just random.

Not true.

We have reports here on these boards of people that finished impressions before kills. Actually the odds are that will get your impressions before the kills are done.

It is just not likely that those people will post here because they are not complaining about a perceived issue. So your statement is closer to true about people POSTING about surpassing the number of kills

[Aldier]

For reference, I had all of my impressions done for my sublime task before the kills. The foundry workers I got last impression with 1 kill to go. The reavers I had about 10 kills to go when I got last impression.

My Pally and Druid started the quest at the same time for the Exalted augs, they are both at 37/40 kills and my druid is already finished with the impressions and my pally sits at 5/6. Hopefully he can get it in the next 3 kills.

Fair enough.

I'll rephrase,
I Have always surpassed the number of required kills before I got the impressions, just the nature of the beast. But it does sound like you've been very unlucky, much like myself.

[Caeadiel]

My Pally finished his impressions last night, took him 42 total mobs. Not bad considering some reports.

Update:

Got my second impression on kill 17 and my third impression in Thundercrest from my 18th strong sentinel. I am now up to 30 strong sentinels killed and still only 3 out of 5 impressions obtained. This quest still seems fubared to me.

[Sharrien]

Luck of the draw....I have all impressions done but only 14 kills so far.

[kekenewah]

I got my fourth impression on my 31st strong sentinel kill and my 5th on my 33rd kill. Hopefully I will have more luck on the Flameweavers lol.

[kekenewah]

lol ok I just finished this portion. They are rare spawns best spot I found had 1 roamer goblin and 3 static goblin spawns right infront of a tunnel that opened into a room that had 3 more static goblin spawns on the first half of the room and 2 more on the other half of the room across the bridge. To get to this area invis and go into the tunnels and stay left IIRCC. You will come to 1 see invis drake.

What I did was set up camp at the edge of the drop off near the static goblins outside the main room. Kill the wander goblin then the 3 statics. Invis, moved into tunnel. Killed the wandering croc then cleared the first half of the room. This was about all I had time for before the repop's outside. This gave me about 7 goblin spawns. I saw 2 menders on avg every 14 spawns. Ofcorse I had my 10 goblin kills long before my 2 pattern updates but it wasn't awful only needed an extra 4-6kills after that. I spent about 6hrs trying before I found this spot, then spent about 10hrs getting finished with it. I was solo and occasionally afk but its a long camp at roughly 1/hr.

GL.

Thanks for the tip on this spot. I found it tonight and so far so good. Sometimes I get double pulls but so far have been able to keep my 76 mage's pet alive long enough to burn these guys down with my wizard.
