Summer Event in Coerthas

The lady at that counter told me that there were bomb sighting in Coerthas as well. Looked on the Lodestone and it said at (58,30) is where a chaperone would be. There is nothing there except some dreadwolves that almost killed me.

Am I reading this right? Please help

JP side also complaining about this one saying the quest is for R1 and the dreadwolves is getting in the way and no way for R1 characters to clear.

Also for the quest NPC not being in the location they said it will be in the description.
Seems like the NPC walks around or something. I haven't tried myself yet just posting what I'm reading on the JP side.

Could you have possibly mixed up the X and Y?

No Gramul, I'm a math major, I know my coordinates lol.

Well that stinks. I was expecting atleast someone over there. There was nobody

Thats down around the Owls Nest right?

There should be a tunnel at the southern point (59,31) that leads to the Owls Nest. Check in there, I haven't been able to check for myself yet but that's my guess.

I just walked to the lake area and I didn't see anything there so I returned to Ul'dah. Kinda low on anima now lol

Guys, the Coerthas region areas for the Summer fest events are at Owl's nest and Falcon's nest. Go to those locations. You can find the Festive Incinerators there. The coordinates are probably semi-wrong.

Or you can just demand a refund in naked Miqo'te.

I'm no slut! I could demand more colors. Where's my pink suit?

The coordinates aren't wrong, the bombs spawn at those locations. Only one bomb spawns and if it isn't there then it is probably being escorted to the incinerator.

But where does one find a faire chaperone?

The chaperones follow the travel on the bombard. If the bombard is not at the spawn point (you journal map marker), move towards the hamlet and you should catch up with it and the crowd following it.

The bombard moves a little every time it is taunted by an appropriate emote. Enemies pop up every minute or so that need fending off. In Cörthas, we're talking R35 fire elementals, but this is also because you're dealing with a bombard king. It drops the rare ash that one needs far less of.

You CAN do this is an R1, but it relies on other higher-ranked players being present for it to work.

The reason people are going to Owl's Nest in the Eastern Lowlands is because Falcon's Nest in the Western Lowlands has a crowd of R40 mobs in the tunnel that need fending off on top of everything else. And in a swimsuit, that's not as easy. But it means that the event there is not over-crowded and, if you wanted a challenge as an R50, you may have just found one.

this one is actually glitched on my server. The NPC is stuck in the wall in the tunnel near Owls Nest.

This is the spawn location of the Bombard King and where the chaperone will head until running into the Bombard King itself. So anywhere from that location to the goal point in Owl's Nest is where the chaperone will be which should account for it getting glitched into the tunnel wall as well...not the only NPC that got stuck on something either. The one in I think it was the Gold Bazaar is stuck just outside the gate to it on Lindblum. Doesn't matter where you go, it would be a good idea to go to the spawn location and run towards the nearest village to figure out where the chaperone is. Seems to be a lot of issues with em

They are also deploying GMs to address these glitches as they arise.

In Bodhum the chap got stuck half way to the incinerator, so people have to rush back every time they get the bomb king down.

First of all, if the escort isn't following the bomb, don't panic. Take bomb to incinerator and run back to where escort is standing. You'll still get your ash.

For Coerthas, at least for Eastern Highlands, 58,30 is correct coords. For me, soloing it, was not so easy. I did not die but you have to keep the Bombard King from dying. You can buff the Bombard King and heal it but that's the least of your worries, as you'll have to deal with Dreadwolves (25-29) and Footpads (there was 1 inside the tunnel leading to Owl's Nest) The spawned Elementals were easy to dispatch but they do hit Bombard King fairly hard. You need to complete the escort in a set amount of time (I'm guessing about 15 min?) before it explodes. This is better to do as a group or as an R40+ where you can just kill w/e you come across (or at least be able to avoid aggro on Dreadwolves) Ranged classes will fair a lot better than melee because you could stand a bit away and not aggro local mobs while you pick off the Elementals.

They're right, stand with your back to the tunnel then head left, then north. The NPC with the Bomb King should be close. It's hard to see because the mini map doesn't always show NPC's that are close until you're right on top of them.

Edit: Well that was weird, the forum said no one responded after Feral's first response. >_> Huh, just got here too...Well good luck. :'D <3
