    Invading U'Ghamaro Mines



    As in all treasure maps "X" marks where the the treasure chest lies.
    Our objective is to get there in the less painful way possible so there will need
    to be some coordination for us to achieve that...

    This is a plan that will probably work great:

    [size=5]Phase 1[/size]

    We run through the main enterance to the first gate marked on the map
    without fighting anything at all.
    Kobolds aggro by sight so we can avoid aggro very easily by running behind them.
    Once at first gate we can fight the gatemen there to open the gate.
    They go down fast so this is the easiest gate we will have to open.

    [size=5]Phase 2[/size]

    After gate is open we run towards the 1st checkpoint without fightin anything again
    but once there we need to hug the wal in order to let the mobs that follow us return to their spots. We fight some Kobolds there and we regroup.
    After rebuffs MRDs will engage the first 4 mobs on the way to the second gate, kill those and proceed to the gatemen there aswell, there will be mage Kobolds there so our mages will have to Silence them as the MRDs will finish up the job...

    [size=5]Phase 3[/size]

    After entering the big room beyond the gate we will all hug the wall on the right in order to get to a small platform and cluster there, it is a safe spot, if we all stay together nothing will aggro us.
    After rebuffs we proceed to kill the first 4 mobs that are at the start of the narrow path towards the
    3d gate, thats the trickiest part.
    We will need to do everything fast enough to avoid repops on the spot.
    We kill first 4 mobs rebuff and immidiately proceed to the 3d gate where Mages will HAVE to sleep all mobs and silence the Kobold Gurneyman there.
    After those two actions are done MRDs or any DD will have to concentrate on killing the Kobold Gurneyman first while other are asleep.
    Avoiding all AoE attacks utill Gurneyman is dead.

    [size=5]Phase 4[/size]

    After entering the big room with the second checkpoint we will have to run a circle around the room huging the wall on the left and run towards the checkpoint and regroup getting ready for the main NM battle.

    [size=5]Phase 5 (Third Order Patriarch Zu Ga)[/size]

    After regrouping at checkpoint 2 we rush into the far end of the treasure room "X"
    Having the NM and his friends follow us in there,
    There is a glitch that allows you to kill the minions fast and easy because they
    keep running in and out without hitting you much.
    We kill the minions and after that we run back into the area where they spawn drawing the main NM with us, we hit him untill he gets to about 10% HP where he summons two Golems...
    They hit hard so when we get our first blow by them we pop either (Sentinel) and (or) (Rampart II).
    The NM fight itself is really easy and it can be farmable.
    It is all about timing popping the defensive skills on Golems.

    Well read this and u will be ready for it.
    We might die a few times but well. thats fun too

    (Good Luck)

    Little bit of help on the NM fight, it's the same lame strategy that works against most everything right now, but it works.

    As long as you have 2 competent healers (or 3 average healers) just ignore all the adds (even the golems) and focus on the NM with a LNC zerg rush. The dps is so high, the NM is down in about ten to twenty seconds, and all the adds will disappear. Rinse, repeat.

    Oh ya definetly that is waay easier BUT you need good players to go through with it.
    I done both ways but when i was in a pickup group we died in about 4 seconds when golems popped :P
    Will need a good group to survive blows from Golems, NM, and Minions all hitting at same time.
    But if u can do ya it saves a lot of time and its way easier to farm.
