TheWoWDBThis is the worst quest I've done in awhile. I've died on so many toons doing this garbage. The mobs all respawn at the exact time, bunch of them have knockback and aggro from far away.
And when you die in this zone you end up so far away, and half to walk back. It's ridiculous. I don't mind the zone so much, I like a challenge, but I hate the way they did death. If you die you don't get a spirt run back to your corpse, you rez right up and get invis for like 10 seconds. So you're trying to figure out where to run to and the clock is ticking.... It's no fun.

Is this quest mis-located on the in-game map? Because I can't find any Crucible Soulseekers in the area marked, and a lot of other mobs labeled as "crucible" something or another are just outside the marked zone. I'm starting to feel like the in-game map has me in the wrong location.
Frankly, not worth the aggro you get from numerous (over geared, hard hitting mobs). This whole zone is a death grind unless you have super healing abilities or able to benefit from same faction players doing this at the same time. Even Torghast cell levels are an easier run.

Cypher of BlindingDescription
Gorgoa is a protean force fueled by souls that trickle in from many worlds. They wash in from the head of the river, a place they have named the Crucible of the Damned. The Jailer's unblinking eyes patrol the river and watch for souls who attempt escape. Blind the eyes that find them. Close them for good. Take this and do what must be done.
