River District Chapter Five .... really?

I just had a quick look here at the blank Wikipedia page to see if this was for real.

I mean a quest where you have to clear 90 [90!!!!] groups of mobs to complete Ascendancys End. Is it necessary to do this quest? What's in it for me? And I figure its going to take an hour solo? Blimey. And what with my machine crashing regularly its just a total no go for me.

Thoughts, help or advice welcome please :smile:

    Bit of a spoiler here but you don't have to clear the 90 groups. After the first 2-3 (don't remember exactly) groups, there's a cutscene where Knox says they're going to exterminate them while you can continue your progress.

    Thanks - I kind of thought that might be the case... or rather I was hoping it might be like the first time you encounter the Mobs at the Portal To Tuern and you think "Yoinks!"

    I actually cleared four before I got that cutscene. Then I had to run through a load of grey mobs ... then I got attacked by another group of nasties! And as for the end fight. That was somewhat interesting :)

    It's not a bad quest. I was actually disappointed that I didn't have to fight more :smile:

    Yes, the end fight is interesting, especially as "he" got caught in the debuff zone around the area of the fight, so I had to wait until he unstuck himself so I could finish the battle.

    Personally, I laughed once the cutscene hit. I think the devs were poking fun at how bad everyone complained that the grind was getting.

    I thought it was hilarious as well, I had a feeling it was a joke by the devs right when I saw it because the number was ridiculous.

    Just like the Stronghold Cleric.
