    Bozjan "Third Time's The Charm" not possible

    As the title implies, the quest isn't possible. Its guarded by over a dozen rank 5 mobs that kill you in 2 hits. Even with a party of 4, they take about 12 minutes to kill each and by the time you kill three, the first one respawns behind you.
    I've seen people say "Just run past them" but see I live in Australia so I have about 400 ping. Now, its meant I've had to readjust my gameplay a little for certain Raids, etc.. but it makes this quest simply impossible. I can't "just run past them" because the lag means they can hit me before I actually make it past them so they can easily get one shot in each which is enough to make it three steps before dying, not to mention dying loses you a LOT of mettle.

    So the Bozjan isn't possible for me due to some very bad level design and I'm not impressed. Eureka wasn't very good and this is just even worse.

    I don't remember exactly where, but I believe in the dialogue they mention that area is dangerous at night. The reason for that is that undead monsters (The 5-star Dullahan and the 3-star Wraiths, iirc) spawn there at nighttime. Go during the daytime, it should be mostly empty.

    They are trolling you.

    On a serious note. Do the opposite of what you're told:

    Walk.

    This is similar to the dragons in Eureka Pagos. Walk pass them. The mobs are aggroed by sound, hence when running, they will target you. Or as per above poster; wait till its daytime. the undead would not be present in the daytime.

    Its possible that isnt someone attempting to troll and is just someone not aware those are sound-sensitive mobs. I didnt know that, so im sure im not the only one. And indeed run behind _____ is often a good strategy. But i also remember this quest. I managed to sneak all the way there, and as i was watching the pattern of the undead to try figuring out my opening a CE spawned nearby and i got accepted/ported in. By the time we were done it was daytime, and the quest line about the area being more dangerous at night made more sense. It was literally empty when i returned, and i casually walked right in.

    Those enemies should only be there at night. Wait til it's day time ingame and go back.

    you have to actually walk past them, not run, I think its like / on the numpad if you are keyboard if you go at night.

    otherwise go during the day in game time of course.
