Talk:Finding a Purpose

The way it's shaping up, you gotta finish the ENTIRE Gate of Anguish mission before you will have the loot so he lets you pass...--Lullysing 22:27, 1 December 2006 (CST)

 * Sadly enough. It is (Terra Xin 03:00, 3 December 2006 (CST))

Do you only need to bribe Keeper Millzesh once per character, or do you need to pay again if you lag out or wipe while attempting the quest? -- Gordon Ecker 19:13, 6 December 2006 (CST)


 * knowing Anets horrible "jokes" latly i wouldnt be suprised if you have to pay over. -TehBuG-

I just did the Finding A Purpose Quest with sum1 else paying for the gems and it still said i had 2 pay that stupid snake the gems and wouldnt let me progress to get razah.... can sum1 explain 2 me wth is going on in there?


 * It's probably because they wanted people to be able to get help on the quest, but didn't want people to be able to get quest credit without paying. -- Gordon Ecker 20:42, 10 December 2006 (CST)

Well you can buy the gems...-X H K


 * Last time I checked Titan Gemstones were slightly more expensive than a full set of 15k armor. According to Gaile they're considering making Razah's PvE acquisition easier. -- Gordon Ecker 00:45, 24 December 2006 (CST)

Question; Well, you pay the 4 gemstones and you don't make the quest so you die... do you get resurrected or your party will be defeated.. and if i recon correct you pay them and if you leave the gems are lost? please answer this for me. Tomoko 10:49, 29 December 2006 (CST)


 * I'd like to know that, too? If I fail the quest can I enter again or not?? Iggers 15:10, 4 January 2007 (CST)
 * anyways, got razah and yes, you can reenter if you fail(I did not fail, but I reentered after I got razah)


 * Hold on so.. did you needed to pay another 4 gemstones or after that you can always go inside? [[Image:Cookie.jpg|20px]] User:Tomoko


 * What Ignatz (use your signature button damn it) is saying that he entered the quest and managed to complete it without dying. So weather the guy actually lets you pass just because you've passed the quest or because you have paid 4 stones is still unknown.  The reason I know this is because I helped him complete the quest.  Judging by Keeper Millzesh's response the second time we entered I would imagine that once you've paid your always allowed access.  He said something along the lines of "These gems are lovely looking" and let us pass. Hope this make sense. --SK [[Image:Warrior-icon-small.png]]  15:00, 13 January 2007 (CST)


 * I have experiemented with this a lot. You can enter and exit as often as you like before and after you complete the quest. Nothing is unknown. --Karlos 16:30, 13 January 2007 (CST)

Can anyone speak to how it is now - can we successfully get these gems reasonably and w/o purchase, w/o doing the entire GoA mission? --CKaz 17:14, 24 January 2007 (CST)


 * I bought my stones yesterday (well three of them, my torment gemstone was dropped by a most helpful demon some days ago...) and gave them to Keeper Millzesh and now he allows me to enter the area whenever I like. I can also take with me whoever I like, but only people who have bribed Millzesh as well are able complete to Razah's quest. And yes, there is a reasonable chance to get most of the gemstones as drops without ever completing any of the quests. In about every second or third visit to any of the GoA areas at least one of our party got a gemstone dropped. The only problem are titan gemstones as they only drop from Titans which are much harder to defeat than the other monsters in the DoA. Does this answer all questions? --Parabellum 04:02, 8 February 2007 (CST)

One usefull information about this quest is the last group (titans) will fight the group which is by the entrance which you don't need to kill. So after they spawn let them fight. The titans will loose (at least when I did it) and you won't have to fight them :) -- Pasc 21:59, 11 March 2007 (CDT)

Gemstone Req. Removal
As the update removing the gemstone requirement was made last night, I updated the page. - -S ora267  17:11, 5 April 2007 (CDT)


 * I'm unfamiliar with the quest, so bear with me. How different does this make things, I.E., how much easier? --Cereseternal 19:12, 5 April 2007 (CDT)


 * It makes a huge difference. The gems are quite expensive in trade, and the monsters that drop the gems are among the most powerful monsters in the game. Without the gem requirement, you only need to fight regular Realm of Torment monsters and the Binding Spirits. -- Gordon Ecker 19:24, 5 April 2007 (CDT)

My Rit self tried Henching it with my Minion Bomber build, didn't work. Got into a group, ran my Spirit Spammer build with Gaze of Fury, and got it on the first try. Next stop, Vizunah Square! BarGamer 02:02, 6 April 2007 (CDT)

Solo Run?
Anyone tried using a normal (like Drok) running build, along with Ritualist Gaze of Fury (instead of Hex Removal)? As long as the mob by Razah didn't body block you on tight ridge, I think it could be done solo. Gaze of Fury the 3 spirits before talking to Razah, then run to him. Anyone tried this? Queen Schmuck 02:42, 6 April 2007 (CDT)


 * You have to kill 3 groups of high-level monsters, titans, shadows and margonites in order to finish the last bit - don't try it :P &mdash; Skuld 11:25, 6 April 2007 (CDT)


 * If you Gaze of Fury the spirits before talking to Razah, the titans/shadows/margonites do not spawn. You still have to be able to run past the mobs of Torment creatures without dying, though. Rains of Terror will snare you if you don't have spell immunity. Skuldnoshinpu 12:18, 6 April 2007 (CDT)

Gaze of Fury?
The last note posted and the Solo Run discussion refered to using Gaze of Fury. I personally tried this and it didn't seem to work for me. Either I am doing something wrong, or GW has taken this into account and these "spirits" are not actually rituals/spirits. Let me know what your actual attempts yeild - 08:28 06APR07
 * I'll try Gaze of Fury tonight; my guild was planning a run anyway. It really should be confirmed, since its in the Notes. - Katscratched (not signed in - at work)
 * I was the one who posted the Gaze of Fury note. I can say it's worked for all 7 of the characters I've tried it with so far; I've used it both directly with my Ritualist and had Acolyte Jin as an R/Rt use it for my non-Ritualist characters. The last run I did was a mere 20 minutes ago so Anet hasn't nerfed this, at least not yet. Skuldnoshinpu 12:20, 6 April 2007 (CDT)
