So this is the 2nd time in a row I find the bloody pirate, kill it and then I can't enter though the portal.

<rant>Like it's really easy to find him, so it doesn't matter if for some unknown reason you can't enter the stupid portal twice in a row...</rant>

Anyone know why, or what be causing this? I have entered before, but now I can't enter.

    I don't think you should actually kill it, It ports you in when its HP is around half atleast that's what happened to me
    My forum avatar has been through so many changes by itself it's not even funny -.-

    yea killing it does nothing to get you in, you just need to hit it once or twice and be near enough to port.

    No, I just use my harpy, which has no bleed.

    I didn't know you didn't have to kill it. So, I just hit it once or twice? What if i don't hit it at all?

    About those saying you don't have to kill it, I partly agree.

    My first/last time doing Sky Pirate Drake, we were like a 8-people squad, found it, signet, killed and entered portal, I think only 1 if any was left out, all the rest of us got in different rooms and could the the digs perfectly, there was no veno in squad in case it matters

    At least you all can find it....

    I've never been able to.

    Need to see the cleric guide for questions, comments, or concerns? Just copy and paste the link.

    (Ignore the quotation marks. URL isn't allowed, so I had to do it that way.)

    oh, gratz to the harpy! anyway, ive never killed it, usually we wait for all friends to be there and then just hit it - we dont even come to a point where it could die (and our dmg isnt low i suppose) but we all group up together around the person that aggros first.

    maybe it aggrod your pet and the pet was too far away?

    What are you trying to say? b:angry


    The only time I met it I also didn't get into the portal. It died, but some of squad members managed to enter the instance nevertheless. Some didn't.

    The first time I had found it, I was worried that killing it too quickly would make it glitch due to the red text about him escaping. He has to deal damage to somebody (it will be 1 damage) and it will be to the first person that hits it. Only one person should hit it with slow and normal auto attacks to be safe.

    This is exactly like Tuesdays (I think?) marriage quest with the spiders - if you 1shot the spiders before they can attack you, the giant one will never show up.


    As far as not being able to enter, either there is a 10-person limit inside the instance, or it's hit-or-miss with getting into the portal. You just have to keep flying in/through it over and over if you aren't ported immediately.

    As stated above, someone has to actually aggro the drake, or he won't spawn the portal (you aggro by getting close to him; hitting him from range doesn't count); and there is indeed a 10-person limit on the portal -- after that, nobody else can enter.

    Additionally, the portal's hitbox is weird -- I've had the most luck trying to fly under it instead of directly through it, though it's still a pain and your mileage may vary.
