Mission Summary

There is alot of information scattered among the posts below and there is some information that has not been listed yet. I play on Fippy Darkpaw (progression server) so level 65 is the max level right now. The level of the mobs inside the mission are respective to the average level of your group. I have done this mission 33 times with my level 65 toons (sk, chanter, cleric, and 3 wizzies) and, so far, I have done this mission 3 times with my 65 chanter and cleric, 59 druid and mage (swapped these 2 out for my nephew's lvl 60 beasty and druid on one mission), 55 bard and shaman (average level of group is level 60). Basically, you fight until you loot the 3 pieces of paper needed to spawn the final 3 mobs. Each piece of paper can drop from a separate selection of mobs. I will let you figure out that selection as you play as I did. But here is some information I will share with you.

With my lvl 65 group, the trash mobs were level 61-63 and hit for 200-300 max. All trash mobs are on the same social aggro except the rats. Rats help rats and nothing else. There are a few casters here and there and they are all wizards or enchanters. Be careful if u can't resist there spells. The wizards will try to root the puller usually their first or second cast ( I resisted most of them) and the enchanters will try to charm you. If you are low enuff level to be cought by the enchanter's charm, you may wantsomeone else to pull that mob. If you do charm a pet while in this mission, be sure to get new pets regularly because your current pet might be the mob holding the piece of paper you are looking for. Once your learn which mobs can drop each piece then you will have a better idea which mobs to charm and hold onto. At the end of the mission Grimzek spawns in one of four places throughout the zone with 2 other mobs. a shaman and a warrior mob. The final paper you loot will tell you which room Grimzek has spawned in. The shaman and warrior mobs are always the same level as the average level of the group and Grimzek is always 2 levels higher. In this situation Grimzek melees for 600-800 max and about 300-500 average hit (I forgot the exact amounts) and he will have full shaman buffs and must be debuffed in order for Cripple to land. (Any mob in the zone that is near a shaman mob must be debuffed to land Cripple on them). Grimzek and his 2 buddies can be pacified and are charmable, mezzable, fully slowable, and rarely resist any spells.

The loots I got during the 33 missions were:
Helmsman's Mask of Vision x 20
Buccaneer's Shield of Pillaging x 7
Meticulously Crafted Sextant x 6

Somtimes, the 3 pieces of paper have dropped within the first 12 mobs and sometimes I didnt get one piece until everything was dead except for the last 2 rooms. Each time I started in the same spot but pulled mobs in a different order. Find the order that works best for you. My lvl 65 enchanter had 42 aa's when I started doing these missions and now has 138 aa's. Most of these aa's were gotten via these missions.


With my other group (average group level 60), the trash mobs were lvl 56-58. Grimzek was level 62 and his buddies were level 60. I keep the bard group health / mana regens as well as the group haste running constantly throughout the mission. I slow with the shammy. I rarely have to heal anyone unless I get a wizzy mob. I melee and nuke with all the toons (bard dont nuke). I use the cleric's group HoT from time to time but not too often. Usually the enchanter, mage or druid tanks. Grimzek hits for 200-400 max but usually 200ish average. I usually dont need to heal during his fight. Trash mobs melee for 70-80 or so. Somewhat negligent for me so I really havent noticed exact amount.

The loots I got from these 3 missions were:
Bejeweled Pirate's Earring x 2
Studded Swashbuckler's Belt x 1

One guildy 4-boxed the mission with level 58-59 toons and got a Gilded Buccaneer's Pauldrons .

If anyone has any questions that I have not answered here, send me a tell on Tequilla on Fippy server or post here and I will do what I can to help. I am currently still farming this mission for myself and guildies and will continue thru level 70 and may be amending this post as I change the average lvl of my groups. I hope this post helps those who are interested in this mission.

info on Grimzek

Did this with a group of 3 last night. (70sk, 70necro, 67shaman bot) Finally got all 3 notes and spawned Grimzek, he was in the treasure room on the lower deck. Had a little trouble splitting his group up, he spawns with 2 helpers, both white cons to a 70.

Grimzek single hits for just over 1000, was fully slowable, didn't seem to resist anything. A pretty easy fight really. Doesn't summon, so the necro could have kited him around if needed. Just clear the globe room first for some room if needed.

Got the cloak as a drop, was hoping for the aug or caster shoulders!
