Oola lab escort undoable now?...
Interesting, I have to try that one and see, I have a couple of “keys” on one toon I think
I wonder if it might be a “leftover” Champ from a previous attempt when it got scaled way up by too many players being present.
From memory, that should have been a Veteran, or even a normal mob.
Wow!! I barely dented him before fail – they really beefed that one up lol
I used to solo that event in the past, next time a map call might be in order :p

Decent hypothesis…although, that’s certainly a new one. I can’t recall any other events retaining scaled up champions from before.

Yeah, only ways of dealing with that (in theory) would be either:
- Having a mini zerg CC it constantly,
- Have constant reflects/projectile absorption, then burst it down before it can kill Orl,
- Or hope it doesn’t target Orl first (unlikely)
I never had any trouble soloing that whole thing in the past, and I recall it only being a veteran.
However, last time I even tried to go into there the group of random adventurers consisted of myself (being a down-leveled 80 in full exotics and some ascended) and 2 other people (no idea what they were).
- We three and the group of NPCs walked in the door.
- In the very first entryway chamber the NPCs said something.
- Golems activated (turrets too?)
- 1 second later (literally one single second) all NPCs and the three of us were instantly killed. And I mean dead-dead, not mostly-dead like Westley in The Princess Bride.
Haven’t even given that place another thought since and I don’t expect I shall ever return.
As a note, after killing that golem you will have to immediately go loot the chest on the cliff outside. If you hang back briefly after killing it (even for a second) then you will be insta-teleported off of the cliff down to the ground below even if you were in the middle of opening the chest. I did that thing nearly a dozen times before I was finally able to loot the chest before being booted off. Horrible, horrible design.

Perhaps, you should post over in Game Bugs. The Devs often answer when it comes to things like this. =)

I haven’t done it since the change but the time I was teleported off the cliff, I was standing by the NPC when he teleported down. Were you by him when you were teleported? If not, his “teleportation radius” is probably enlarged, which may be part of the bug. Whether or not his teleporting players next to him is also bug or is meant is another question.

I have done this event twice.
- When our team went in the first time we were able to complete the event in a reasonable amount of time with no real problem.
- When we did it more recently the event Failed in about 10 seconds. We were all stunned… “Um, what just happened?” None of us died, the event just kind of blew up.
Have not been back since to see if it was a freak or not but from what I am seeing it looks like some kind of bug.
I think this event may be bugged on a particular server. Do a /ip and report the value after you “find” the Champion as I would like to investigate this.
Then again, after reading the rest of these comments, it appears they FUBARed removing the Champions from Starter Levels…..(accidentally adding one).
