If you are a mage, you can definitely solo this quest by sheeping the Courier and then aoe down the 4 elite bodyguards as shown by Faxmonkey.

You can also solo this quest as a priest by using Mind Control on each of her bodyguards separately, let them die while under MC and then run away. Once all the bodyguards are dead, pull her toward the Argent Dawn's camp North of Blackwood Lake (not Light Hope's Chapel) and have the NPCs there help you kill her. The funny thing is that if you are still holding aggro, she will chase after you but she will be daze since 6 lvl 59/60 are wacking at her. Once she is daze, it's pretty much over and you can kite her however you like.

A word of caution: Don't try to kite her and her 4 bodyguards to the camp because the 5 elites are just too much 6 non-elites can handle. I tried this before, and the bodyguards slaughtered all the NPCs.

Just make sure all your dps goes to the courier, and ignore the guards.. Atleast that worked for us, totally ignored the guards and went all out on the courier.. we killed her, ren for our lives and came back to loot her. Was pretty amazed how easy it went we were with a 5 man group, 60 shaman 56 shaman 55 rogue 58 priest and a 57 warrior.

Commentaire de Thottbot

my clanmate just dropped the quest, to reaccept it, but it doesnt start at nathanos.
the description says "return to the eastern..."
so i guess the quest starts somewhere else.

Commentaire de Thottbot

The thread begins at Sylvanis, who sends you to meet Blightcaller. The Crimson Courier thread begins at Valthimaris (spelling is wrong...the big demon who stands in the Royal Quarter of the Undercity).

Is the note read-able for you Horde people? I'm interested in what it says. If someone could write a transcript here I would be most thankful.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Did this wid three ppl. 60 rogue 60 rogue 60 shaman, i was the shaman putting an eb totem, pull with a lightning bolt and in to ghost wolf dragging the rest of the mobs away, while the 2 rogues finish the courier off. easy.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Did this with 60 Hunter, 60 Rogue and 59 Druid... Starting at the Plaguewood gate, the Rogue would use Distract to pull off one bodyguard, then sap him. After about 15 seconds, the Druid would train the rest of the group away while the Rogue and Hunter killed the bodyguard. repeat this three times before Corin's Crossing. South of the crossing, the Druid just kept the Courier rooted while Hunter and Rogue killed the last bodyguard, then all three of us finished off the Courier. Took a while, but it was safe and effective.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Is he at a certain area? Or does he patrol. As I look at the places on the map & it's a large section of it.

Are all of the mobs Elietes? OR just some?

Commentaire de Thottbot

Yeah hunter, but dont forget the guards, it's isnt so easy...pulling the whole group and kitting the courier dont work, because at point the guards catch you
So you have to disptach the courier from the whole group, i've tried some things, and the only one working is to waiting the group reaching the undead town
When they get aggro of a ghoul, pull the courier and begin to run with him during 20sec, when you are sure guards have not aggroed to, u can begin the kite
the rest is a peace of cake

im wondering if it is possible to do same with Demetria :s ?
i hope cause when i create a group to help Duskwing+Borelgore, i say we kill Demetria too ? and they never do so...@#$%...this kind of ppl thinking only about themself suxx, so let's solo

Commentaire de Thottbot

Waited for her right outside of Plaguewood, we set up the druid on the south side of road and the priest on the north side, both a Max Healing Range. Damage Shield on the warrior from the druid and Powered Word: Shield from priest.

The warrior charged the front guard, Thunder Clap, War Stomp, switch to Def. Stance, took a Greater Stoneshield Potion, Challenging Shout, Demoralizing Shout then Intimidating Shout. Repeated Demoralizing shout a few times during the whole fight and Intimidating Shout once more.

The forth and last slot was the Mage, and was in charge of the DPS and runners.

Healers were never charged or gained agro.

We did one guard at a time, then did the Courier last.

On prier attempts, the healers where within damage spell range (shorter than healing) and were getting charged.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Anyone else ever have any trouble looting her? I soloed her twice, both times when I tried to loot the commands, I received a "You do not have permission to loot that corpse" message. This is getting frustrating, I'm going to try a third time today.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Of all the elites in EPL, this was one of the hardest ones to kite for me. What I did was kite the Courier by renewing Serpent Sting every time it ran out, and also letting off a few auto-shots once and a while. Shortly after I pulled the Courier, I sent my pet to attack her, this caused the 4 guards to start attacking my pet, slowing them down and getting them even further behind the Courier (which is good). I continued kiting the Courier with Serpent Sting until she was at about 60% health, then I used Viper Sting until her mana was all gone. From then on, I alternated between Serpent Sting and Viper Sting. Kited her almost all the way through WPL and finally brought her down.

Commentaire de Thottbot

This quest is very easy to solo (at least as a lock)

Summoned an infernal and sent him after the guards... Then clicked a mob far away and told him to attack that... The guards followed him while I pulled the courier, infernal died, kited the courier with instant dots and the guards lost interest and ran back, then fear kited the courier, easy kill. She tries to heal herself so just cast curse of tongues on her and when you see the heal, fear her.

Simple

Commentaire de Thottbot

57 hunter.

used the above strat. waiting for the npcs to aggro an undead mob and then kite away courier. took a few tries... seems that the guards run faster than the courier does, and caught up to us. this last successful time, they seemed to have stopped following at some point. i know this because once i got to wpl, i turned her around to go back into epl. i did this because there are too many mobs that path near the road in wpl.

kept serpent sting on her until around 70%, then drained mana completely, then alternated serpent/viper to keep her at <500 mana. anymore than that and she will begin casting heal. it seems to be a 3 second cast so there is enough time to scatter shot her if you're on the ball. best just to keep her drained in the first place, however. throughout the whole process (about 8 minutes i'd say) i was able to get off several dozen autoshots to help things along.

once she died, i received a "you don't have permission to loot that corpse" error. i wasn't in a group or anything... obviously an issue arose, probably to do with the kiting. i submitted a ticket and am hoping i'll be able to get the quest item.

anyway, happy hunting.

Where are they?

Commentaire de Thottbot

1. Track humanoids
2. Dismiss pet (in case it goes badly, you need to be able to feign and not get found out by the courier or her guards while they kill your pet.)
3. Turn on Aspect of Cheetah
4. Get behind the patrol at the limit of bow range and put Hunter's Mark on the Courier.
5. Time an aimed shot so that it starts just as the courier is leaving bow range, you want the longest possible shot to start this.
6. As soon as the arrow leaves your bow, run up the road away from the courier and her patrol. Don't wait to be sure that it lands and don't run off of the road or you'll get adds.
7. Occasionally turn and hit her with instant shots to keep her mad until her guards leave. She should be leading the pack of chasers, and it should not be a problem to keep out of intercept range of the guards.
8. Summon pet and attack.

She's got a fair amount of hp, but doesn't hit particularly hard. This shouldn't be hard to modify for anyone with any sort of speed enhancement and a ranged attack.

Commentaire de Thottbot

I soloed this one with my Mage (has some T1/T2 armor so dont try this in green ;-)

Sheep courier, bomb the adds (this is tricky you should time your cone of cold really good while they are in frost nova. time the coc at the very point just before the nova breaks so all adds stay together) now just walk back all the time spamming coc and ae. re sheep the courier if u aren't fast enough. when the adds are down just use evocation and some runecloth bandage and kite the courier to hell =)

it worked on second try... first try there was some #$%^ty alliance rogue who ganked me

Commentaire de Thottbot

There are plenty of posts about group strengths and tactics...

But where does the courier patrol. Does it just follow the road from tyrs hand to Strat?

Thats what i'm guessing but in all my travels so far I have not seen any mobs matching this.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Solo'd them all as a 70 prot warrior.
Hey, I was seeking revenge, leave me alone!

Commentaire de Thottbot

I hear you man, soloed 67 Pally.

Commentaire de Thottbot

she pats from tyr's hand to stratholme live entrance following the road. this should hopefully answer previous questions.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

We still haven't finished this quest in our guild. We attempted to last night, but... heh. She usually travels with her 4-person entourage between Stratholme, that undead Crossroad town (Corrin's Crossroads? can't remember off-hand) and Tyr's Hand. We had two 60 locks and a 60 druid, along with myself. I rush her and I hit her two or three times then she goes into Evade mode, while her entourage just tears everyone a new one. If anyone's done this quest, tips would be appreciated. I know that we'd probably need a mage and/or rogue for sheep/sap, but damn man.

Well We dont care about your war stories, Just tell us where the guy is?

Commentaire de Allakhazam

so....damn...hard...to...kill...even...with...a....4...man...grp diaf courier
and i always get ganked by her and the worm -_-

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Just did this with a warrior, a rogue and myself(shaman) all 60s. Sapped one body guard and focus fired on the courier. I kept heals on the warrior. I got all the aggro after a few heals, i died, ahnked, drank and healed again. The courier dropped, we looted and ran. Not too hard if you have a group with experienced players.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

In my guild we've found that it's easiest if you put all the people that need to complete the quest in one group, and have someone else (preferably with an epic mount or some riding speed buffs) just run through the center of the group of mobs. Then someone from your group just tags the courier. It should be easy enough to kill her while your friend is training her four bodyguards around. This is also how we completed the next quest in the series with the oracle.

If you have a hunter, rogue, and mage then you have easy crowd countrol.

1) Sheep pull the courier first.
2) Ice trap one guard.
3) Sap the otehr guard.
4) Kill 2 guards in the meantime and take out rest one by one.

METHOD 2:
Immobolize the main guy and just kill one bodyguard at a time. The guards dont respawn if you rez yourself quick enough to go after him again.

Commentaire de bipolargirl

Classic: They despawn at Tyr's hand. They don't walk back up the road (at least they didn't in our case, it could be totally random). We found them in the middle of the zone walking down the road. By the time we formed a group and got everyone there the group had made it's way down to Tyr's hand. As we were clearing the area to prep for the fight the Courier and her followers disappeared. We assumed they would do a U-turn once reaching Tyr's hand and walk back up the road. But they disappeared and respawned up at Stratholme so we had to search the zone for her again. It took 5 of us to kill her. 3 level 60s and 2 level 59s including a tank, healer and 3 dps. We just targeted the courier and killed her first and took down the adds afterwards. We attempted it several times with 2,3 then 4 people. We needed the full 5 man team to be successful.

Commentaire de Racthoh

If you put enough threat on the courier you're able to pull her away from the adds and they will reset before she does, meaning you can solo her.

I managed to pull this off but ran totally out of mana before being able to kill her (she casts holy light). Thankfully someone ran by and helped me finish her off.

Commentaire de Awnt

Was successfully able to do this with enhancement shaman & rogue (2 man) just now. I have MC equivalent gear, not sure about rogue but he had 3.6-3.8k hp. Details below:

The plan wasto have me kite 3 adds + courier while the rogue solo'd 1 add, and we would eventually whittle the guards down and try to get her in a 2v1 situation. We downed her that attempt. What had happened was, I kited 3 adds via epic mount in a circle, and the rogue tried to 1v1 an add, but died. At that point, the courier aggro'd to me and the guard reset. From there, it was a 1v1 situation until the rogue got back. I just earthbind/frost shock r1 kited her until rogue got back, and killing her wasn't much of a struggle when he did. She is stunnable, she heals (but we have two kicks), but she can also HoJ.

Although I'm not entirely sure why she deaggro'd to me and her guards didn't, the purpose of this post is to potentially help others who may be in a similar situation where not many people are around to help. Maybe someone else knows why the reset aggro worked the way it did. For what it's worth, I couldn't use any healing spells to gain aggro on her (since mounted), and if anything, I may have dropped an earthbind right before he died, but I cant remember.
