Talk:Darkrime Delves

Drop to be seen here from the end chest: Havok's shield Skin/stats are presently unknown (guildie had to go and left before showing off his find) Yamagawa 21:24, 25 August 2007 (CDT)

Added Havok's Shield tonight.

Can you not get to the chest if you don't have the Misanthropic Jotun whatever quest active?
 * Correct, you can't get past the first level without the quest. To get the quest, the NPC should be right outside the zone to get it. Nilator 16:56, 26 August 2007 (CDT)
 * And is that quest repeatable? Because, otherwise, it seems kinda stupid to have a dungeon that you can only clear once...
 * Yes, all dungeon quests are repeatable. &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 12:06, 27 August 2007 (CDT)
 * kthx ^.^

Norn "Allies"
I don't think the Norn are supposed to help you in this dungeon. I just got to it, and the way the quest description reads out, They're only observing you kill the jotun that they were arguing over who gets the right to kill it, or whatever they were arguing. - Yossitaru 23:02, 31 August 2007 (CDT)

How do u lower the bridge in the upper room?? I found a lever that lowered the bridge, farther south, but the north bridge is still up, and no lever there./

I went into Darkrime Delves with 25,914 Norn reputation points (Slayer of Giants (4)) thinking that I'd quickly farm up the remaining 86 points before leaving the zone to get Rank 5 after I'd completed the dungeon. Got my reward (onyx - yay!)from the dungeon chest, then got the reward from the dungeon quest giver (7,500XP, 1,500g). I went to switch my title and found that I was now Slayer of Wurms (5), with 27,414 reputation points. 1,500 Norn reputation points weren't listed as a reward, but they are very welcome!

Missing Boss Bug
I completed the dungeon 3 times without any problems. After that I obtained the Master Dungeon Guide and went to complete the dungeon for the fourth time. I managed to kill the boss Grelk Icelash on the second level and he dropped the Boss Key. As I was clearing the second level, a new build of the game was made available, and I was not able to zone to the third level of the dungeon, even though I managed to open the Boss Lock in front of the portal leading to it.

At this point I zoned out of the dungeon and tried to run it again. Next 4 runs the boss did not spawn, so that led me to believe that the game preserves the state after obtaining the Boss key. Sure enough, after I abandoned the quest and took it again from the NPC, the boss spawned on the first subsequent run.

I believe that the boss will not spawn on subsequent runs if the dungeon was not completed during the same run in which the boss was killed. (I have not been able to test this thoroughly, because I have only one character in GW:EotN currently)

Missing Boss Bug Confirmation
I have had a similar scenario where I was forced out of the game while after killing Grelk. On subsequent runs Grelk did not spawn. Abandoning and req-aquiring the quests rectfied the solution.

Big Spawn of Mist, Scourge, etc... Just After opening First Boss Lock

I was in Hard Mode and had just vanquished the area. Decided to go ahead and get the dungeon out of the way. I freaking HATE the dungeons..do them once and that is it. So, was moving through pretty well, opened the first lock, moving past the rez area AND 'boom' a spawn of 12-14 vaettir. That wiped me and the H/H pretty quick. After rez, we were right in the middle of them but lucklily I was able to pull most back through the door. Three deaths by myself and at least that many by the rest and we had managed to kill them all. So, that one spawn took me and the team from +6 morale to -20 to -55.
