Talk:Defend Denravi

"During this quest, the only foes in the area are the Titans. After completing the quest objectives, you should have an easy time of exploring for the cartographer title." Wahaha! Who wrote this piece of finest humor? Be warned: If you follow this very interesting idea, you'll find the whole map crowded with titans. Lvl 28(30) Titans! Easy time exploring the map? Dude...you've got it wrong. (removing the note). Pudding 23:14, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
 * No one ever verified that claim (it was made in nov of 07), since cartography of that area was easy anyways. They probably assumed that since part of the map had no regular mobs nor titans, the rest of the map was empty. --8765 00:15, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

Investigating Titan Population - Solo Vanquish
So last night I soloed this area (a titan-filled Tangle Root) in HM with my 55 necro, just out of curiosity. Since Lingering Curse is no longer a full enchant strip, this entire zone is now possible to 55. Bar: (16 Blood, 9 Protection, 9 Healing, 6 Soul Reaping)

It took 4 hours to vanquish alone, including deaths and runs to the artisan to sell loot, and there were over 210 titans to kill, not counting the 4 titans that spawn from every single Rotting Titan (of which there are a great, great many...) Including second and third generations there must be over 300 kills to make... I remember getting 3 skill points along the way so that's a lot of exp (all foes are L30 I think... or were some L28? Hmmm.) Loot wise, there were Magmas Shields and Fellblades to be had, as well as a LOT of iron ingots, plenty of granite slabs, a few planks of wood and glittering dust, and the occasional steel ingot and roll of parchment. I was about 20k richer, not counting unsold materials, books, golds etc. I abandoned the quest after completion ofc so I can go again some time. I would have to concur that this was not the "easy way" to be doing cartography! Cirian 14:20, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
