Hi,
I'm a lvl 66 lock finally getting round to doing the Epic Mount quest. I've
done all the mats work with Gorzeeki, but have not bought the 3 objects off
him yet as I understand you can 'borrow' these from other locks if they come
on the DM run with you - is this correct?
If so, how do I actually get the dreadsteed q itself|?
Thanks
Rob |

This is true, if you know another warlock who already has the 3 items
and is willing to come along on the run, he can summon the dreadsteed
for you. You should be able to pick up the quest from the guy in
Burning Steppes who started the whole chain for you.
When you get into Dire Maul, clear out the place until you get to
where you summon the dreadsteed, and the warlock with the 3 items
starts a summoning circle. Imps and felguards try to kill you. Any
warlock who purchased the Black Lodestone (1 of the 3 items) can
repair any of the 3 nodes of the summoning circle, so even if you
don't plan on buying all 3 items, at least buy the lodestone so you
can help keep the circle going. After the imps and felguards you get
a chance to rest and regen health and mana. Then the warlock with the
3 items summons the dreadsteed. You fight the dreadsteed, then a
dreadguard comes. Once the dreadsteed is dead his spirit appears with
the yellow ? above his head, talk to him, complete the quest and
you're awarded with the spell to summon one.
Get a bunch of 70's to come along and its really easy. I did this
once before the expansion and it was a difficult but fun encounter. |

And don't forget.. Warlocks have Enslave Demon. Felguards are Demons.
As far as diminishing returns on enslave goes, when it breaks, enslave
ANOTHER one, not the same one.. kill the first one with the second one
and so on. >> Stay informed about: Dreadsteed quest query |

yep, that'll work... I had the benefit of another Warlock in the group
who had all the bits, so he kept the circle up while I enjoyed myself.
I *really* wish they'd sort Enslave out.. I suppose it would make
Warlocks even more overpowered though.. At least give it a *minimum* time
before it breaks..
I did think about dropping an infernal on them, but then remembered 'only
outdoors'... sigh. >> Stay informed about: Dreadsteed quest query |

Also to do it the easy way, just set it to Aggressive and forget about it
while you concentrate on keeping the items up (if you're the one with the
items) - they do some nice damage that way while you can just dot stuff
when you have a spare minute but overall keep out of trouble (I learned you
can't repair the items while being hit, so not having aggro is important
 )

Cast curse of shadows before enslave, that greatly reduces the
chances enslave will break early.

If you really are at the point where only the bell, disc, and candle are
left to buy (note, you still have to do the quests providing materials to
make them), you should also have the dreadsteed quest available to you.
Look for a quest that has [Summon Dreadsteed] as a reward. Note that there
still ARE things you have to buy - some rather expensive dust, a jar to
carry an annoying little imp around in, etc. The last time I looked, the
questline was laid out fairly well on thottbot - verify that you're truly
at the last step before trying to geat a group for dire maul. *

Indeed. Two warlocks on this quest makes it a total cakewalk, with the rest
of the group more or less along for the ride. Two enslaved felguards will
make short work of the imp infestation.

Generally speaking, there will be no break (especially if you cast curse of
shadows first) before the the event ends. You could get unlucky, but it
doesn't happen much if you're above 60.
Also note - 2 level 70 warlocks and a healer can do this quest without
anyone else. It's possible (though Immolhar might be a problem) that two
warlocks could actually do it *without* a healer. But don't do that -
everyone I've ever brought along has enjoyed the event if they haven't seen
it. And don't forget to tell them to look up! *

I did this quest once for me and helped another lock get his
dreadsteed. The first time i didn't enslave the felguard but the
second time I did and let me tell you it was great >> Stay informed about: Dreadsteed quest query |

Yep being higher level than the mob also helps - it broke loads when I did
it for my own mount, but when I helped a guildie get his mount a few levels
later I had no enslave breaks before time at all. Seems to basically be
down to resist chance - have to say I never thought of curse of shadows
though; that one's worth remembering for the future!

Yeah, I believe I've heard before that spell hit rating will help Mind
Control not break and if it's true, the same is probably true of
enslave.
