[edit] Walkthrough
The final boss has an odd condition which makes his regen negligible to non-existent. Defeating him is just a matter of gradually reducing his health to zero. However, to complicate matters, he will use a power called Firebomb, which causes Heroes, Henchmen and even pets to catch a Firebomb. This disables the weapon of whoever is holding it. And if it happens to be you holding it, drop it immediately! Because if it explodes while you are holding it, it's instantly fatal. Also, be mindful of the large fireballs rolling around the crater. If one of them hits anyone, they also die instantly. But they move so slowly, dodging them is easy. See Catacombs of Kathandrax
[edit] Dialogue
[edit] Initial dialogue
Swithin Nye
- "I was sent here with my company by Captain Langmar. It was our mission to recover Kathandrax's Crusher, a great Dwarven weapon. On our way to the caves, we were ambushed by an overwhelming Charr force. Their numbers were many and we suffered great losses. I should have died in battle with the others, but Captain Langmar made it clear that recovering the weapon was more important than anything. When all hope of victory was lost, I retreated with a few fighters left standing."
- "To bolster our remaining forces, I sent two men to summon reinforcements. They have not returned. The caves are infested with fire elementals and other terrible creatures. Our numbers are few; we no longer have the strength to reach the weapon. If you would take up arms and retrieve it, we will compensate you justly."
- Accept: "I will not let your hopes be crushed. I'm in."
- Decline: "I'm feeling a little crushed my self. I'm out"
- When asked about quest: "Find Kathandrax's Crusher. It's hidden somewere deep inside these caverns"
[edit] Reward dialogue
- Swithin Nye
- You found it...Kathandrax's Crusher! I'll assign one of my men to return it to Captain Langmar immediately. Your victory here will not be forgotten, [Character Name]. I will personally make sure that Captain Langmar knows who is responsible for retrieving this most important artifact.
[edit] Notes
- You do NOT have to beat the dungeon to finish this quest. If you already have the Quest Item you can obtain the rewards directly. This is useful for Survivors.
