=== Part 2: Frozen Glacial Golem & Gear Knights === # Near the very end of the dungeon you'll come to a large down-sloping room with a large ice overhang that is on both sides and the ceiling at the bottom of the slope. Under the overhang (where the path narrows just before the [[Frozen Glacial Golem]]) is a floor trap that spawns approximately half a dozen Gear Knights. There are two general ways to complete the quest from this point, but be sure to read the next section before attempting either: ## Walk on the trap to trigger the Gear Knight spawn, kill them all and the [[Frozen Glacial Golem]] will die automatically, causing the [[Frozen Gearknight]] to change from ethereal to a killable creature. ## Jump over the trap and kill the [[Frozen Glacial Golem]] yourself (pull him to the side for the best chance at avoiding issues). Once dead, the [[Frozen Gearknight]] changes from ethereal to a killable creature. # Important tip for mages and archers: after spawning the Gear Knights, it is possible to jump behind the [[Frozen Glacial Golem]] for protection; you will be safe from melee attacks on the far wall behind it (but NOT spells!), and can pick off the Gear Knights one by one with relative impunity. Stand to either side of the golem and jump over his shoulder toward the wall behind him. # In either case, once the [[Frozen Glacial Golem]] is dead and the [[Frozen Gearknight]] becomes attackable, do regular damage to break the ice around the it and the NPC [[Ordas Myr]] will immediately appear in the same spot. Speak to him for xp and the crossbow. Ordas will disappear after a few minutes, so if you have party members who need to make their way back after dying, it is best to wait to break the ice around the [[Frozen Gearknight]] until they have returned safely. # This quest can sometimes bug: if the ice around the frozen Gear Knight doesn't become attackable after the golem dies, have everybody in the fellow(s) log out for 5 min. Then all come back to repeat the process (kill gear knights or golem) until it works. Notes * The color of the xbow is random, colors found so far include black, gold and orange. * When released the transition from ethereal and encased in ice to killable creature for the [[Frozen Gearknight]] is unreliable. It is supposed to occur when the [[Frozen Glacial Golem]] is either killed directly, or dies indirectly as a result of killing all the Gear Knights that spawn from the nearby floor trap. As a consequence you may need to kill the golem more than once (the transition is brief so check right away).
