Talk:Gandara, the Moon Fortress

Vanquisher title

I cleared the area with 67 foes and earned 335 experience and 201 gold. Tedium 02:07, 24 April 2007 (EDT)

And I added it in for you. -- ab.er.rant 02:14, 24 April 2007 (EDT)

Seems a bit silly to me to include the exp/gold from vanquisher when they are a direct function of the number of enemies killed...~ Kailianna Firesoul 21:18, 24 April 2007 (EDT)

I got 124 on vanquish and if required i can provide a Screen shot. Josho123 22:19, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. -- ab.er.rant 02:16, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

I got 123 with A Thorn in Varesh's Side. To make this quest easier in Hard Mode, get a tank, ball them up, cast Grasping Earth, and then nuke them. It only took a few seconds to kill them balled up. I used Perma Tank and it worked fine. --65.0.109.30 00:50, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

118 with A Thorn in Varesh's Side +2 Kournans spawned inside the city I could not reach (Screenshot available). -Roadki11

124 foes, 27min, vanq/maping. The skale and heket oome in small easy to deal with mobs. Some of the kournan mobs are quite large and may have 2 priest. The priest have fast activating skills so interupts are less useful. KD/spiking and presuring other party members of theirs works. Be careful of the scribes as they use meteor and if they catch enough of your healers the melee can do serious dmg in those few seconds of vulnerability. Justice 23:01, 17 July 2011 (UTC)

I just tried to vanquish this but it glitched. There was a Kournan Oppressor inside the fortress where we could not get to him.

Murals of the Gods

Since the Moon Fortress of Gandara was so important to Varesh Ossa, she put murals of the sixe Gods in it, including Abaddon. I'm going to put pictures of the murals into the Article. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.196.141.53 (talk • contribs) at 18:21, 8 November 2007 (UTC) (UTC).

Cartographing the Area South of the Prison

I can't seem to uncover the area directly south of the prison. I've gone up on the second level of the prison, into all the cells & the island to the east as far as I can, but still no luck...anyone have an idea on how I can do this area?? Thank you!

A little late, but this answers your question. (just got 100.0% by clearing this area). You have to beat the missions Pogahn Passage (sp?) and make sure you are the party leader, and that you view the ending cinematic completely. after you leave mission, check map and it'll be cleared.

Yes, I have that but i have just done it and it did not work for me.  :( Any ideas? -- Sha Lar

Gandhara

Could the name be inspired in Gandhara?. MithTalk 14:58, 3 September 2009 (UTC)

Origin of Name

I heard that Gandara was named after Gandar Fluxen (a player owned character which has been around basically since the game started), can anyone confirm or deny this? --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:Charwinger21 (talk).

Cartography

Just cleared the area, and received 1.5% for it. I had not cleared the mission yet (somehow it's done on my character, but no fog was ever cleared away). 96.48.131.210 12:13, 4 January 2010 (UTC)

Hmm...

I don't have A Thorn in Varesh's Side, but all of its spawns (or what I assume are its spawns) are there. Ive gotten 7 groups so far, one of which has 14 Kournan militia. –alistic 23:51, 8 November 2010 (UTC)

Nevermind. –alistic 23:56, 8 November 2010 (UTC)

New Low

VQed with 62 enemies

Same thing happened to me with 67 enemies. I have never vanquished this area before so I'm guessing that the other 60 or so enemies WITHOUT quests was because you had access to the fortress itself, just a guess. Me And My Sin

Kournan Bounty!

Ok so I don't know how to update wiki, but if someone that knows how would add you can now get a Kournan Bounty it be appreciated. It's the first shrine you get to. Found out on 12/20/2011

All of my characters have completed Poghan passage/Nightfall and cannot get bounties in Normal mode - I'm finding this is the skale bounty in hard mode. I have not completed "A Thorn in Varesh's Side", but I did have it active to check if it made a difference to the shrine npcs - which it did not. More data is required on a Kournan Bounty here.

I'll see to it. Yoshida Keiji talk 04:53, 24 July 2012 (UTC)

Unfortunately, my 2 characters with lowest Sunspear rank (8) cannot get any bounty from the first shrine. Yoshida Keiji talk 10:17, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

Yep try in HM - should be same bounty both modes.

I tried on my rit who hasn't done anything past Venta Cemetery, r6 sunspear, - still skale bounty. Perhaps the original poster was mistaken. File:User Chieftain Alex Chieftain Signature.jpg Chieftain Alex 13:26, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

Bug

I think I found a bug. 122 foes, circled area 4 times, didn't finish VQ. I have screenshots if needed. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by Fabian (talk • contribs) at 17:30, September 22, 2023‎ (UTC).

I think it might have to do with the quest A Thorn in Varesh's Side. If you had not completed it yet before you started the vanquish, that would explain the high mob count you found. I suspect you simply did not complete the quest while you were in the vanquish. 155.186.49.132 14:57, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

I don't have A Thorn in Varesh's Side active and this just happened to me (https://i.imgur.com/DpblMEB.jpeg) so in my case it looks like a bug. 121 foes vanquished. C0Zm1c (talk) 03:21, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
