Awesome Guide!

FYI, the quest A Moral Choice which gives one of two holograms has a known bug. I followed the path to "switch sides" so that I could get the Mustafarian Miner hologram (option 2) and was not able to complete the quest due to no disk given and therefore no access to the Communication Terminal back at the Mining Facility. Customer Service told me that it is a known issue and refuses to help further.

TRIALS OF OBI-WAN QUESTS - COMPLETE REFERENCE GUIDE ( work in progress! )
By SonGouki
Version 0.6
November14, 2005

INTRODUCTION

Hello everyone, the following is my attempt at a complete guide to all of the new quests in the Trials of Obi-Wan expansion. I’ve tried to keep the guide ‘compressed’ in order to (hopefully) make it easier to read over and print. Be warned though, that due to the nature of this guide there will be minor spoilers, though I’ve tried to minimize them as much as possible.

Using This Guide:

The following coloring code is used throughout the guide:
orange text = quest titles
yellowtext = task titles
green text = quest rewards
red text = enemy encounters
bluetext = waypoints

Additionally, beside each quest title I’ve listed the combat details of the quest to help the non-combatants see which quests they’re able to do. Here’s how the ratings work out:
[combat] = must have combat skills to complete the quest
[combat (voluntary)] = combat skills may be used to complete the quest, but not necessary
[non-combat, dangerous] = do not need combat skills, but required to travel into or encounter dangerous areas
[non-combat, risky] = do not need combat skills, but required to travel through potentially risky areas (eg. general spawns)
[non-combat, safe] = do not need combat skills and not required to travel through or encounter anything risking combat

As a point of reference, in this guide I refer to a “Quest” as the overall entry in your Quest Journal (QJ) that you receive at the starting of it. A “Part” is an individual sub-item under the Quest title in the QJ, and is usually the current task that you must fulfill in order to receive the next Part, and eventually complete the Quest. Sometimes Quests lead to other Quests, forming a chain of Quests. These are referred to here as “Quest Series” (also known as Epic Quests).

The numbers beside the quest titles are for reference only and not meant to indicate the order that the quest should be done. The only exception to this is quest series, which must be done in order.

For links to pictures of rewards, bosses, and maps please go to the end of this guide.

Note that for the time being I’m NOT going to indicate what’s required to unlock Obi-Wan’s visit or cover his trials. For those that don’t care about MAJOR SPOILERS I’ve made a separate post that lists what is required and walkthroughs for the trials.

If you know of any quests not listed here, please post the name of the NPC or item that gives the quest and where they can be found (very important), I’ll take it from there. Also, if you have any corrections to the info here, please let me know as well. Thanks.

Tips For This Expansion:

The planet of Mustafar has no space zone, so you can’t fly your personal ship there, in space or by travelling. In fact, the only way there is to take a shuttle from Corellia or Talus.

Getting around Mustafar can be a bit dangerous if you’re not careful, due to the liquid hot magma all over the place. Luckily all of the continents are connected to each other by bridges, so it is definitely possible to get to all areas without needing to singe yourself (though it can be a long trip, especially to Tulrus Isle and Berken’s Flow). With that being said, you can make it small distances over lava before you’ll melt, so it is possible to take shortcuts occasionally. However, the best way to take in that wonderful sulphur aroma is by using the Lava Flea Mount, a Desert Skiff, a Jetpack, or the Lava Skiff (not to be confused with the Desert Skiff), all of which can transport you over lava without harm.

BTW, don’t forget about the new Abandon Quest feature! You can abandon any of the quests In Trials of Obi-Wan, even quest series. If you want to start the quest again simply talk to the NPC (or interact with the item) that originally started the quest. For quest series you don’t start over again at the beginning of the whole series, just at the current quest in the series that you were on. For Obi-Wan, you can use the Holocron at the Shore of Remorse to start over one of his Trial quests again if you abandoned it.

Many quests in this expansion require that you kill a specific NPC or creature. These MOB’s will often spawn at a set location, which I usually include waypoints to in this guide. However, be aware that they usually do not spawn specifically for a quest holder, but are instead on re-spawn timers at that location. Also, sometimes there are placeholder MOB’s at the location where the quest MOB is supposed to spawn, which you must kill in order to allow the quest MOB to spawn. Even then though, the spawn is still usually on a timer, meaning you must kill the placeholder(s) repeatedly until the quest MOB spawns. Credit for killing quest MOB’s is the same as looting rights, the person/group that does the most damage gets it.

Finally, the following is a post by the devs on NPC AI and the expected level of challenge from encounters:

---

A number of changes have gone in recently changing the way NPC's behave in combat.

Relative combat level difference combat modifiers have been adjusted. NPC's close to the players level +/- 2 will have less of a combat difference. NPC's far from the players level +/- 10 will have a greater difference.

NPC Jedi specific skill modifiers are now being applied. NPC Jedi and pseudo Jedi (Nightsisters) should see receive a noticeable boost in their offensive and defensive capabilities.

Elite and boss class NPC's have had their damage ranges adjusted. Average damage has been raised slightly and minimum damage has been raised by a moderate amount.

Most NPC's have attained combat classes and can make use of abilities inherent to that class. These include defensive stances as well as powerful offensive attacks.

Some NPC's have gained the ability to resist or be outright immune to some effects. These effects include root, snare, daze, attack slow and armor break.

NPC's have had their chance to perform knockdown attacks greatly reduced.

For reference, an even level con is roughly broken up into four categories.

Normal: This is an even fight for one person
Elite: This is intended for 2-3 players
Boss: This is intended for 4-6 players
Special Event: These encounters will often vary wildly, from the solo Lord Vartonis [edit] experience to the Kubaza Beetle Cavern event which was designed for 5-8 players.

As you know many NPC's range up to level 90. A level 90 boss is intended to be a challenge for a full group of combat players.

---

With that being said, if you’re looking for help with a quest don’t forget about the Planet chat tab. It’s a great way to hook up with others to handle those more difficulty encounters, and chances are there are other players on the same quest as you also looking for help. Trust me, you will need to group to complete some quests (in fact one of the dungeons requires that you have at least four people). So don’t be afraid to ask for help, or to offer it either.

Enjoy the guide and good luck on Mustafar!

CHAMPION OF MUSTAFAR (YT-2400 QUEST)

This quest series starts off inocent enough, but rapidly evolves into one of the hardest in the game... Bring lots of friends, you’ll need ‘em! In the end though you’ll end up with a lot of rewards, loot, badges, and a deed for the YT-2400!

Note that the YT-2400 Deed is looted from the final boss faced in this quest series. It’s not automatically looted and anyone in the party can get it, so keep that in mind. You can, however, go back into the instance after completing the quest and attempt to loot one again if you need to. Just be aware that a player can loot the YT-2400 Deed one time only on a character. At this time it is unknown if you need the badge in order to fly the ship, but it is certified in the Master box of all three piloting professions...

Also, there are a lot of instances that you’ll have to go through during this quest series and there are some special rules to Mustafar instances that are good to know beforehand.

First of all, getting into an instance. Everyone in the group should follow this procedure:

1) Everyone in the group should click the door or NPC that allows entry into the instance (making it the current target).

2) If anyone has a Lockout for the instance it will appear now. These people will not be able to enter the instance until their Lockout timer has expired. Discuss with your group if you still want to proceed into the instance. If you decide you want to the people with Lockout timers must leave the group.

3) Make sure everyone in the group closes any Lockout windows that were opened and have them re-select the entrance to the instance.

4) Get acknowledgements from everyone that they’re ready to proceed.

5) Have the group leader (and only the leader) choose the option to enter the instance.

6) Everyone else in the group should now get an invitation to enter the instance. Quickly accept the invitation.

7) Success! Hopefully everyone followed the rules and is now in the same instance.

However, if for some reason not everyone made it in, the whole group should exit the instance immediately and try the steps again. If you take too long to get out of the instance, kill anything in there, and/or complete any of the tasks for the instance you will enable the Lockout timer for yourself and will not be able to enter the instance again for a period of time.

any idea where we can get Jedi Master Cloak ???

If you're referring to the one from the Friday Feature, I believe it was referring to the ones that can be looted (there are 2 or 3 of them)...

Cloak of the Kursk (CL80, Jedi Padawan)- looted fromSan’sii the Kursk (CL82 Boss Jedi) [-1500,255]
Cloak of the Storm Lord (CL80, Jedi Padawan)- looted from TheStorm Lord (CL90 Boss Jedi) [3069,1131]

If memory serves me correctly, the Cloak of the Kursk was brown and the Cloak of the Storm Lord was black.

Then again,that specific onecould be a Chu-Gon Dar Cube item, but no one found it during Beta...

[edit] Please remember that both of these are QUEST MOB's, so please let other players join in for the kills if they have the questwhile you're camping them!!!
