Does anyone think the amount that you have to kill for this task is way too much? Especially given the nature of the their spawning and despawning and their toughness.
Every other GG task I have either completed or nearing completion, but I'm at 150 of 1000 npcs for that task.
I wonder if you get credit for any NPC that you hit just once? If you're in a group attacking one of the riders, you hit him once then turn around to attack a miner which you do kill - do you get credit for two kills or just the one. If you get two, then I'd think this would help get to that magical 1K number much more quickly. Otherwise, add GG to the daily grind list.

I find it very boring, when I go to GG PvP all I want is to kill people and contest nodes, I don't want to stay in a specific node and kill adds that disappear in a couple of seconds when more players arrives. I prefer a quest like: Kill the **** Amusud x times or kill the npcs outside PvP GG by 100000 so we can do something while we are unable to join PvP.

There are no riders in Gauntgrym PvP.
But yes, damaging an npc counts as long as it is killed before despawning.
would be great if killing mobs from first part of GG counted. its to hard to get into pvp (for delzouns at least) to waste time for killing monsters...
it is definatly not too high of an amount. i already have 7/10 GG tasks done
I am at 7/10 too. I have victories, triples, and npcs left to do. I'm at 57/75 for victories, 45/50 for triples, and only at 150/1000 for npcs. I will be working on it far after I completed most other pvp tasks.
It's unrealistic unless they count NPCs from Phase 1 and 3 along with 2. At this moment they do not and I'm already not counting on getting it unless they change it.

Agreed, it's the most ridiculous task. Generally you'd want to ignore them rather than kill them and in order to complete the quest you'd want your team to hold off from capping the 2 points that spawn the mobs. Very counter intuitive.
Guys, at least they fixed double and triple kills.
And after trying out the campaign rings, I can say they aren't worth it. A lot of the people topping the leaderboards have but don't use them after trying as well.
About the only class that could use the rings would be DC wearing MH set, maybe. Ironically it's most difficult class to progress in the campaign on a DC.
the reason why you "never get into gauntlgrym" is because you are delzoun. the delzoun faction has far more players then the luskan so you never get queue's. luskan, however can queue at 15mins, 10mins, and 5 mins and get a pop within 30seconds

Yeah, I'm going to completely disagree with this. These rings are super <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> good if you switch out some of your other gear. The hardest thing for most people to swallow is losing their 4 piece profound bonus to capitalize on this, but there are better combos out there that incorporate this jewellery.

WTB Class Reroll please
and which of the 3 do you have left. i assume the kill 1k NPC in GG is still not done. hence the thread.
