Talk:Kodonur Crossroads (mission)

Outpost to Mission
This location seems to start out looking like an ordinary outpost until you get some sort of quest or something that makes it into a mission. Not sure why this is, but it we'll have to make sure and clarify this issue in the article soon, because I'm sure a lot of people will be wondering what the hell is going on with Kodonur Crossroads.Heres what it looks like to me right now. --69.231.162.56 16:48, 28 October 2006 (CDT)

isnt this thesame with all the mission spots in Nightfall?


 * Yeah, they just show up as regular outposts until you've completed the primary quest that opens up the mission. There's also a (presumed) bug that causes the icon to not update until after you either complete the primary quest and log back in or complete the mission. -- Gordon Ecker 02:32, 6 November 2006 (CST)

I think it would be helpfull the mark the bonus on the map.


 * I've added the locations of the bonus Overseer's to the map. --P.hilling 13:51, 29 October 2006 (CST)

ay isen't it weird that you can cap smoke trap from an ALLY? i think annet wanted to bring a new theme in gw. heres how to cap smoke trap. what i did was i lured that boss to the begginning point a little east werhe the mountains were. there was a patrol of kournans walking back and forth over there. my whole team stayed close by (but not agroing)and i had recall on a friend. when the kournans came close my teammembers ran i ran into the kournans than disabled recall. sure enough dalzin soon died we finished off the kournans and i got smoke trap. real simple but weird.
 * I think we need to mark which cell has the boss centaur. I've done this mission many times, but never noticed which cell has the boss. I surmise that the method to getting him killed is tricky enough while knowing which cell to go to. A simple B on the map next to the cell would suffice, I'll probably have to make at least two trips to this mission to get the right cell and cap the elite.

 * I'll just add it to the article, I found it on one try, thankfully. DancingZombies [[Image:Aura_of_the_Lich.jpg|24px]] 20:32, 4 December 2006 (CST)

The map's missing one of the taskmasters. He's north of Sadi-Belai and just south of the bridge. -- Gordon Ecker 02:18, 25 November 2006 (CST)

Missing Taskmaster: Found

Missing Centaur
It took me a while to realise that the Centaur was now in my hero list - I spent an age running around looking for him. It might be worth adding a comment to that effect in the text.
 * Revel, you can sign your comments by simply typing ~ after your comments. As for your question, Zhed is not acquired in this mission. You must have him in your party to even do this mission. Zhed is acquired after you complete the Centaur Blackmail primary quest and the unlock message will pop up. -- Ab.Er.Rant (msg Aberrant80) 20:36, 4 December 2006 (CST)

Bonus = Overseer NOT Taskmaster. <- WRONG <<-- Not WRONG
The edit by Sanctum needs reverting, the Taskmasters drop the cell keys and are part of the main mission. Overseer's are part of the bonus. --P.hilling 18:54, 26 December 2006 (CST)
 * No, they're CRUEL Taskmasters. Different from Taskmasters, yet not Overseers. The Overseers are NOT part of the bonus, they (two of them) are the final part of the mission. -Scyfer 20:14, 26 December 2006 (CST)

The confusion here is that the Bonus dialogue calls them "Cruel Taskmasters", while their names say "Overseer ....". This should probably be mentioned in the article - I'll go add it. &mdash;Dr Ishmael (talk|contribs) 00:25, 27 December 2006 (CST)
 * When I did this mission yesterday with my monk, I swore blind the bonus peeps were actually overseer's and not Taskmasters.. thanks for proving me right in the first place. --P.hilling 00:42, 27 December 2006 (CST)

In Which Anet Screws Wit Our Heads
It would appear that Anet just realized this mistake themselves and renamed the "cruel Taskmasters".

Taskmaster Sadi-Belai Taskmaster Suli Taskmaster Vanakh

I will now revert my edit to the mission article and rename the bosses' articles. &mdash;Dr Ishmael (talk|contribs) 21:46, 29 December 2006 (CST)

Taskmaster Locations may Shift
The taskmaster northeast of the start area (NE of the taskmaster due north of where the mission starts, east of the dual cells) was not where marked in my recent run of this mission - he was far north, past the furthest north island, on the north tip of the island. Looks like either the taskmasters slightly shifted north a bit with a recent patch or they vary normally a bit (not massively, but it was a bit annoying to not find the one near the two cells where it was marked). All the other taskmasters were in the right places. Just noting in case someone finds the taskmasters not where marked. -Scyfer 20:20, 26 December 2006 (CST)


 * I don't think their locations "shift" so much as the Taskmasters themselves move around a bit. Still, it would be better to say that they can be found "in the general area" of the white squares instead of implying that they'll always be at those precise locations. &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] (talk|contribs) 00:36, 27 December 2006 (CST)

whenever i do this mission i can never find the last taskmaster. always end up running around for 20min first... and i check in all the locations on the map. 72.78.223.169 16:57, 10 January 2007 (CST)

Guide for Capping Smoke Trap
Simple, easy way to get Smoke Trap pretty early in Nightfall. Bring a full henchie and hero group. Clear the first few groups and get the Cell Key. Don't unlock any centaurs. Near the middle of the map, there is two cells somewhat close together. The south-eastern one should contain our level 24 Centaur boss with Smoke Trap. Flag your henchies and heroes a safe distance away. Defend yourself any way possible while running to his Cell Lock. You will likely still die. The mob should start pounding on our Centaur. He doesn't go down easily. The centaur will die, and when he does, bring one hero back close to the ledge that the cage was sitting upon. Make that hero resurrect you. Any Res should work. I used Rebirth and pulled aggro from the same group that killed the Centaur, and it still worked fine. As long as you quickly use your Signet of Capture after being resurrected, you should be fine, and enjoying a new elite. Doom Music 00:52, 22 February 2007 (CST)
 * Or in a simple way you can just get an cell key, clear the area near the ally boss's cell. leave party, get aggro, die (both), get rezzed bij hench en capture. Just lett the boss die, as far as i know it has no effect of any reward in the end.
 * Strike 1-If you clear the area near the boss's cell, nobody is left to kill the centaur.
 * Strike 2-How do you leave party in a mission? Get agro from what?  Die (both?) from what?
 * Strike 3-Get rezzed from what? In a mission?  In your dreams.  Doom Music 12:06, 23 February 2007 (CST)
 * Sorry, just read this again. Your strategy is the same as mine, just very poorly worded.  No offense.  You can use the flag commands to leave the henchie group behind while you engage any other group with the centaur.  The technique I listed was what I found to be the quickest, much quicker than clearing that big group.  Doom Music 12:23, 23 February 2007 (CST)
