Talk:Challenge of Strength

I may just be incompetent, but I find this quest difficult, because I would swear these Naga are seriously buffed up as compared to their normal cousins. The warriors were hitting my Warrior for 90 damage with Seeking Blade and over 100 with Jaizhenju Strike, and ordinary Naga Warriors emphatically do not hit that hard. These Naga also take enormous amounts of punishment, again far more than other Naga.

I'm fairly sure I'm not imagining these things, as I tested the damage output and absorption of regular Naga after completing the quest. It would make sense for them to be especially dangerous, since the quest description classifies them as particularly cantankerous Elder Naga.

Anyone else had similar experiences? If so, we might consider adding a note in this regard to the quest page. 72.165.203.226 14:02, 26 July 2006 (CDT)
 * I can say I've seen this quest vary in difficulty. The mobs that show up are apparently somewhat random; I've seen groups with mostly archers, mostly fighters, and nice mixed groups including monks and ritualists.  The difficulty really depends on your group make-up and what they're prepared to fight.  I personally don't agree with the gereralized statement that "The Naga are easy to finish off" that's in the walkthrough; they CAN be easy especially if you have lady luck on your side, though the opposite is also true. --Zampani 16:22, 26 July 2006 (CDT)

I tend to agree with the initial poster: this quest IS hard and the naga output far more damage then the "regular" naga do Djenghis 11:21, 31 July 2006 (CDT)


 * I agree also--I just re-wrote the walkthrough section to accommodate this. &mdash;Vendetta411 07:50, 20 August 2006 (CDT)


 * I just used Death Blossom and Moebius Strike with Meteor Shower and defeated all of them in 2 sec.--[[image:SwordShieldGlenn.jpg]] GlennThePaladin (Talk,Contrib) 13:26, 27 April 2007 (CDT)

naga types
they changed it! it has similar units now, called Elder Naga Warriors, Elder Naga Archers, and Elder Naga Ritualists. they seem to have the same skills/levels as ordinary ones, but can someone check their stats and add pages for em? --User:Aptaleon Griefhaven


 * I just created these pages after doing the quest. Wish I would've known they didn't exist beforehand...would've taken more notice of the skills used. I'm certain the Elder Naga Archers use a different skill set from Naga Archers, but as for the rest I can't be sure. Vendetta411 07:11, 20 August 2006 (CDT)


 * Just went through the quest again for a better look...it appears the elder Warriors and Ritualists use the same skills as their non-elder counterparts, but have higher attributes (more damage inflicted, etc.) Elder archers do have a totally different skill set from the non-elder archers though...all three pages have been updated. &mdash;Vendetta411 08:40, 20 August 2006 (CDT)


 * They are like other bosses, have 2 times damage. I got a Needling Shot with 42 damage. --heach 06:57, 25 August 2006 (CDT)
