OK IS there another location to kill these Unstable essence to get guard Feng's Tablet? I am wandering around this docked ship and its hard to maneuver and fly with enough mana to last u and kill these at the same time. Not to mention the drop rate is atrocious. Please help thanks.

    No. That is where you have to do it and all the flying that early can be a real pain for an archer. But, you can get by with less mana drain. Get up on the highest platform of the ship and wait to fly until one of the essences spawns nearby. There should be two that spawn within easy reach. I think the same thing is possible from the hilltop across from the ship, but not sure.

    I did this quest as a cleric, and even then it's hard on the mana drain. I stayed near the top part of the ship and circled round to hit the closest ones, then recouped on the ship between bouts.

    Try luring them closer to you with your regular arrows. You might have to fly up to hit them the first time but if you retreat a little, shoot off another arrow, then land on the ship it might follow you close enough that you can stay on the "ground" and finish the fight with your special attacks. Alternately you might be able to shoot some while standing on the ship and get them to come play with you that way. Just eyeball the distance, or else you might find yourself walking into the air to get within range.

    Good luck!

    Edit:
    PS: If you try the luring and they get a yellow sphere around them and turn away, stop the attack. They've gone into healing mode because you've lost their aggro (aggression/hatred/interest) and they're moving back to their regular positon. Any attacks you make when they're in the yellow sphere will be ignored, and will do no damage to them. You'll have to wait till the sphere is gone. To keep their aggro, make sure you're hitting them every so often when moving back to the ship. Most mob aggro is lost after 15 seconds without any additional activity (like you hitting the mob or the mob hitting you).
