edited July 2013 in General Discussion
I got the quest to kill the Prison Warden in OHT3 (thank goodness Im a Mystic, not sure how other classes even manage to get the quest).

Anyway, just like Bubbles in FC, the guides I read on these forums suggest kiting/luring him to a clearing to kill him. Sounds reasonable, lol. >.<

Is this legal, or considered some kind of glitch abuse?

I seriously dont want to be banned for doing what a guide suggests, with a violation of the ToS. *waves white flag*

Thanks. b:thanks

    Its fair - just like luring something like Ofotis from his hole in 59 using a Veno pet/Mystic summon is.

    If luring a boss away from a bunch of mobs was glitch abuse, we'd all be banned. No, perfectly legit tactic.

    It's not bannable to lure in a ''open'' area, what is bannable it's place like BH29 if a veno (or mystic I assume) lure trough the door without having kill the guard.

    Luring was actually an unintended feature of the game (glitch). It's just been accepted as a feature.

    You can lure those bosses with a zeal, but that specific part of the quest was really made for a squad, you pretty much need it to talk to the npc in the jail cell, or lucky you dont die while talking to the npc

    Yes, because people really need 900+ dex or 1000+ magic just for the lulz

    I'm keen to guess that you are one of those people which tell everyone in forum that every aps which is faster than 3 was an unintended glitch too? xD

    Not everything YOU don't like is a "glitch". "Glitch" is an overused term.

    Venos were BUILD to lure. Like fist-bms were build for 3spark-5apsing. It was the
    main reason to invite a non-herc veno into a squad, before genies got released. I am VERY sure that this was intended. Only if the origin developers of the archosaur studio log in here (with administrator logo) and tell me that I'm wrong, I'll believe you.

    It's not illegal. That's how I got celestial sage, and how I helped a few others that needed him. Killing that boss while next to tons of mobs is suicidal. Besides, we've been luring this whole time...even in 69 you lure Pole, and Nob away from the mobs to the turtle room. Same concept here. Just don't accidentially aggro the other boss beside him. I've seen that happen. O.o

    Lol, my first squishy idea was to sneak up and try to get the quest through the back of the bars. THAT little guy was right there on a platform next to me, and I couldnt click through the bars (not because of the boss - just fail idea), He attacked me all along so I tried to fight him thinking he was just another one of the low HP mobs. To make a long story short - I had to run for my life, and lived to try again. I was like OMG! O.O xD


    Ive had the Taoya part for like a year, I think. Couldnt get any help to kill him, and set the whole thing aside. I was home sick the past couple of days, and decided to try again. Spammed WC for help, and finally a BM volunteered. You really dont have to lure Taoya anywhere. I spam healed the BM, sent in summons and creeper. BM kills Taoya, I get his head.

    Yay! Goal Accomplished 101 completed! :D

    I thanked the BM. He wished me good luck with the rest of the culti.

    After he left, I went to get the Prison Warden quest. After a couple of attempts as described in reply to Serenity, I summoned Sally, and flew to over the door of the cage just out of aggro range of the mobs.

    I leeched Sally, summoned Devil, threw a plant down on a small npc right in from of the door, sent Devil after the Warden, and dropped down running right into the cage and got the quest. Yay! Goal Accomplished 102 completed, and extra sweetly because I did it alone. :D

    The next day I spammed WC again to kill the Warden (after reading the guides, and getting my answer on this thread), and eventually another BM volunteered to help me. I lured the Warden and yada yada yada...

    Yay! Goal Accomplished 103 completed. :D

    The BM offered to wait for the 3rd boss too. Flew back in front of the cage, leeched Sally, since Warden dead just threw down plant in front of door for crowd control, and again went right up into the cage and exited with no problems at all.

    Bella had told me in the Mystic forums when I asked if I needed a squad for Taoya, that I probably only needed one other, and she was spot on! At least for the Mystic class, one other was perfect

    Went back to the BM, who had moved nearer to the 3rd boss, and lured Commander with Devil, yada yada yada...

    Yay! Goal Accomplished 104 completed. :D

    The 2 BM's who helped me know who they are. Kinda hesitant to name them since they might not want me too, but I will always remember who you are. Can't thank you guys enough! *hugs and kisses* b:kiss

    I ended the day at the 'go do TT again for 5 more bosses' part, which Im waiting till the weekend to try to accomplish. Seems like from here on the worst is over!

    My next hurdle after completion will be getting the Chrono pages for the 2 spells.

    One hurdle at a time...b:thanks

    I wish to thank you all for your comments. Right now, Brill sees a more perfect world!

    Unlike Taoya, the Warden and Pao can be range tanked; a mystic can likely solo.

    Mystic aren't dependent on pets; and thus can solo.

    Im sure you are right, but my attempts to solo Taoya ended in so much brutality and pillaging of my poor little Mystic that, ya know...thanks all the same, Im just happy to get in and out of the cage.

    As Ive said other places, Im testing the "Farm R9 in a Few Weeks" theory.

    So, I pretty much consider my game time dedicated to farming mats and herbs. Brill is/was a Farm Toon now. Also, selling stuff thats been lying around collecting dust, merching when I find a good deal...farming my way to R9.

    One of the items was a Reset Note. So I decided to accomplish one of my endgame goals with it instead of selling it t. Soooo, I recently reset to pure Magic. This also caused my HP to drop from its mega 5108 to 4988. b:chuckle

    I'm not really playing anymore, so who cares, right? b:chuckle

    Well, inventory is backed up and I really dont want to collect more, so I decide to test the "Win Mega-Bucks Lotto with Jolly Jones" theory. Um, hours spent for 222K each on 3 45 - 47 toons It was like 18 runs of the same 2 quests over and over too.

    Not happening... x.x

    I say DQ coins were better for time invested, but who cares what I say anyway? *shrugs*

    So, you see - I am not confident after my brutal splaying by Taoya several times, being in the condition I am in physically as a char, to mess with these fast hard hitting things. No thank you. Im pokey and I got no HP to really brag about, but I can kick your butt as long as you can't 1-shot mine. b:surrender

    Maye you should just get a squad to do stuff, 'cause I got my doubts about those "mega 5.1k hp too"...

    I can solo Taoya on my mystic. I did soloed him way before get my R9 or my G16.

    @Brillance, when you solo a boss it's not just about the HP, it also depend on your p.def and/or m.def depending which boss.
