Okay, I undertook the Battle for Deity Shirt quest. The first leg is kill Tauroc Commander and collect Heavenwear Fragments (15) . It sounds seasy, but well.. okay the monsters are level 51.

Well.. okay.. a little tricky.

I'm a cleric.

Okay.. gotta go ranged and have a party. b:sad

Mob only drops at Heavenware Fragment for the person who deals the killing blow.

Okay.. this is annoying. b:cry

Mob does not drop consistently.

What were you thinking on this quest???? b:angry

My suggestion is that you either increase the drop rate for the quest item, or for goodness sakes, get rid of this killing blow requirement to have the possibility to get a Heavenwear Fragment. It's sorta hard for a party all needing to do this quest to try to time attacks, avoid the other aggros, and not die. And I don't think you should dumb them down. That'd be somewhat silly. I just wish you might fix the issue one way or another. Either increase the drop rate to about 50% or keep the drop rate at about 20% and allow everyone in a party to get the quest item, regardless of who dealt the last blow.

Update: At lv 51 I was able to do this on my own. However, I am still soemwhat surprised that high level monsters were in a quest for a much lower level character.

    If you're stuck soloing, try kiting them with Cyclone or wait a few levels. :P

    Personally, what I did was have my BM friend hit first and stun so I didn't have to kite or tank too many hits. I tried doing it in a squad with him and doing the most damage to it & getting the last hit, but I didn't get any of the quest item that way. After we started doing it out of squad though, it worked fine albeit the droprate was probably about 20%-25%.

    The mob can be found at Rook's Valley.

    yea i feel for you there man also as a cleric i had troubles as well, they were hard to kill at the lvl u got the quest. It ate up my mana killing one and i barley got any frags collected, i had like 2/15 after 10 of them XD. I would've just suggested to save it for later as i did

    That's what I did, lv 46 cleric. First hit, Wield Thunder followed by Great Cyclone, running away and kiting, hitting cyclone over & over til they drop. 7 steps, hit, 7 steps hit, etc. Most of the time I didn't even face the mob, I ran forward away. It took a long time because I had to kill about 50 or 60, but the only time I took hits was when I got sloppy or aggroed nearby mobs. This worked even for the extra life ones, they just took more hits. They kite nicely b:laugh
