Anyone here done one of these? I picked one up from a blood ele today, and
it's calling me to rush out and complete it...

Stratics says I can expect Ancient Wyrms, Balrons, Poison and Blood eles and
titans. Seems like I might need my own personal wandering healer! I think
I'll wait and go for this in a party. Boring!

I've done a couple. They aren't too bad if you know what you are doing. A
patient, scrolled up bard can solo one (without leaving spawn behind...hate it
when people do that). Better to have a friend or two on hand, though, for
speed as well as security.

I've done four. An arti, a lot more junk to sort through, and not much worth
keeping. That's with 800 luck too.

The only real thrill is suddenly being nose-to-nose with an Ancient Wyrm, a
couple Balrons, their sidekicks and wondering if you'll make it out of range
before the casters toast you, and can then try to one-on-one them.

"The *only* real thrill...." <chuckles and cleans out his drawers> :)
