The Captive Scouts

This quest is completed by reaching each of the four scouts before the execution timer runs out in Zul'Aman. Bakkalzu is at Akil'zon (Eagle), Hazlek is at Nalorakk (Bear), Norkani is at Jan'alai (Dragonhawk), and Kasha is at Halazzi (Lynx). Completion of this quest should not require completion of the event for the [item=69747], as you can skip past the Bear/Eagle bosses and head straight to the Lynx/Dragonhawk bosses if you still need to save those scouts.

You have a total of 25 minutes to do the timed event, 15 minutes at the start, plus 5 minutes each for killing Bear and Eagle bosses. The first (Bakkalzu's) chest gives a bag of gold, the second and third (Hazlek's/Norkani's) give an extra epic (353 ilvl) each, and the last (Kasha's) gives [item=69747].

Ok to all the clueless people here's how this works. There are 4 scouts scattered around Amen. Each requires a boss kill to be saved. You get 25 total mins to save all 4(15+5+5). Each scout you save will open a loot chest with progressively better loot. Chests 2-4 contain purples, Chest 1 is just crap. You beat the timer and save all 4 to get all the extra loot, you need to not wipe at any point and otherwise totally plow the zone. You need good DPS and ppl that know wtf they're doing, aka no wipes. The first half is easy, but when you get to the dragonhawks... you'll find time easily wasted as most groups wipe there 2-4 times every run.

You can do the quest out of order and only need to beat the time to save a specific guy until you "save" all 4 sooner or later, but you won't get all the loot that way, and the quest itself only have a puny 20g for completion. If you save them all in 1 go, you get 3 extra purples for your run, which include slots that can't otherwise be obtained.(LIke an AGI cloak)

If that's the way it was intended then I stand corrected.
