prized leopard

the prized leopard which is actually called ironfist's pet as mentioned below , spawns an add "a Coldeye Leopard Tamer" . i was trying to fight the pet in the back room where Kaldimar is , but the add appeared to spawn in the first (the big) room, training the heck out of me in the process of charging/auto-aggroing me. So, still working on the split/pull and trying to determine if the add spawns immediately or upon damaging pet.

quest write up: http://www.angelfire.com/myband/TrevorHay/Prized_Leopard_Quest.html

I just tried to use the click effect on the reward for this quest and realized that it won't work if you have casted your own Aura spell recently. I had just casted my paladin Blessed Aura (which is also on a 43min 20sec timer like this click's effect) and got the message that "You do not have sufficient focus to maintain that ability" message , just like when you try to recast your aura when you still have it up. So in other words you have to use Only this items aura or your own aura

the trap / aura on the reward seemed to go away very fast, /feedback'ed for them to increase it's duration. not sure yet but as the item creates a trap/aura on the ground i'm wondering if it buffs/affects people out of the caster's group

You say, 'Hail, Verkorn'
Verkorn says 'Me not crazy! You crazy!" Verkorn is practically shouting. "Why you bother me? Me have [much to do]!'
You say, 'much to do'
Verkorn says 'Much! Bark! You not [help], you leave. Bark! Me busy. Bark! Me not crazy!'
You say, 'help'

Note: I was KoS to him and he didn't give out any tasks, but if you can sneak, then he will respond to you. You still can get the task if you just say "help" to him.

A task window pops and you can chose between 2 tasks.
Task 1 "Prized Leopard"
Task 2 "Charming My Dear"

--- "Charming My Dear" ---

Verkorn the Mad needs your help in creating a totem that can be used against the orcs in their ongoing battle. This totem can be used to temporarily tame a bear and bring it under the control of the totem's owner. Verkorn would like the bears charmed in such a way used to attack the orcish camps and carve a swath through their ranks.

Reward(s): You gain experience!!
Reward option 1: Lucky Charm Totem
http://lucy.allakhazam.com/item.html?id=53689

Magic Item Lore Item No Drop
Slot: Ammo
Effect: Circle of the Arcane ( Casting Time: 5.0 )
Recast Delay: 43 minutes and 20 seconds
Recommended level of 70. Required level of 63.
Class: All Race: All

Circle of the Arcane:
http://lucy.allakhazam.com/spell.html?id=11519
Spell effect: Summons an Arcane Circle that increases the spell damage of those nearby. Effekt: Random 1-5% damage boost to Nukes and Dots. The aura is static and not bound to the person who cast it ( Looks like one of these new trap rings ).

Task Progression:
- Kill 6 adult cave bears 0/6 Icefall Glacier
- Loot 2 Cave Bear Hearts from cave bears 0/2 Icefall Glacier
- Kill 4 Coldeye Orcs 0/4 Icefall Glacier
- Loot 2 Coldeye Orc Charms from Coldeye Ory 0/2 Icefall Glacier
- ??? ??? ( - Deliver 2 Cave Bear Hearts to Verkorn 0/2 Icefall Glacier )
- ??? ??? ( - Deliver 2 Coldeye Orc Charms to Verkorn 0/2 Icefall Glacier )
- ??? ??? ( - Use the totem to charm 6 adult cave bears and take them to the orc fort Icefall Glacier )
- ??? ??? ( Return the totem to Verkorn )

Once you have turned in the 2 hearts and 2 orc charms he will hand out a Verkorn's Bear Totem ( http://lucy.allakhazam.com/item.html?id=36186 ).

Go back to the Cave Bear tunnel und pull some bears, but the totem charm does only work on the bears if they have less than 50% health, else you get a message in red letters. The charm only works on the Cave Bears and not on the other bears in the zone. Pull and charm them one by one and once you have gathered 6 new bear friends move to the orc fort. Note: Do not cast invis buffs or use FD, else the charms will brake.

Close before the fort gate a half dozen yellow con orcs will spawn and the charmed bears will start to fight them. Some second later your task will update and you can train the remaining orcs to the Valdeholm zone.

Return to Verkorn and hand him the Bear Totem und you will get the final reward.

The total required time for this task is approx. 1 - 2 hours.

next is:

* Deliver the 4 hearts to Verkorn, receive Verkorn's Leopard Totem
* Find the orc fort
* Charm the leopard "Ironfist's Pet" with the Totem -- had to kill him down to under 20% for charm to take hold
* Drag your new leopard pet to Verkorn, task will update when pet reaches Verkorn -- doing this solo I trained my way out of the orc fort for fear that invis would mess up the pet status
* Hand the Verkorn's Leopard Totem back to Verkorn

receive reward Totem of the Leopard's Paw

I damaged the leopard at his spawn point in the orc fort in a tiny room. Have to watch line-of-sight aggro.

He followed me all the way to the kobold fort, like a pet.

I trained the kobolds out of their cave (if you outrun them you will eventually lose aggro (yay out-of-combat icons)), then I ran back in to Vekorn in the kobold cave and waited for the leopard to wander in.

3 questions:

1) Where did you DPS the leopard down to 20%, in the fort somewhere? If so, umm, how? lol...

2) When you trained out of the Orc fort, did the now-charmed leopard keep up and / or path to you correctly, or does he lead the way?

2) Did you train IN to the kobold cave to get to Vekorn with the leopard in tow? Or were you non-KOS to kobolds?

Thanks!
