Re: Paladin Epic Mount quest

I need some suggestions here.  We went to Scholo with a group of 4
paladins and a priest to complete the Epic Mount quest.  Midway
through, the priest had to go so we drafted a 60 mage, and did even
better.  Until we got to the end room.  There are 4 waves of ghosts,
and we got through waves 1 and 2 fairly easily.  But wave 3 hit us
with 7 ghosts at once, and we didn't survive.  Twice.

Any paladins out there who have done this and have any tips for me?
Thanks.

I think next time we will take 3 paly, a priest, AND a mage.  But
those ghosts hit us so fast and so hard, I'm not sure what we can do
to stay alive past the initial onslaught.  Maybe Divine Shield...
Maybe couple that with Divine Intervention, so we at least have a 2nd
shot...

Another almost humorous thing we did was we shielded and ran through
the bat room, and the room before it, and did a DI/rez on the stairway
after it.  The only problem there was we group wiped a little later
and had to run through all those mobs again.


Ok.  I might have some info that could help you.

I was helping a guildie with his epic mount. Another guildie Pally was there to help too, he had already done the quest and has help other pallies several times. So we have me (priest), two pallies, a warlock, and a mage. What we did, is that I would shackle the aspect and we would sit and regen our mana before each mob. We did pretty good and got the knight to spawn. He did something unexpected and shot three shadowbolts at me. I died. And we wiped.

Now, after this...supposedly, you can't do it again. But we're like, WTF, let's go kill some bosses. We ran to the room where the students were at (the ones where you're not suppose to talk to.) Lo and behold, the Knight was there. While we wait for everyone to get in the room. He disappeared. The pally who did his epic mount before didn't understand why the knight would be there. While we were discussing this, the Knight appeared again. We took the opportunity and kill him. So in the end, our pally was able to get his epic mount.
