Taeshlin and Mirror Golems

I am wanting to know more about why this event is set up to where the golems can be despawned even without killing them.


::SOMEWHAT SPOILER ALERT::

The way the encounter works right now. After taeshlin has been talked to the encounter is enabled and you have a few hours to fight them and if not they are despawned and you must wait the 4.5 + or - for Taeshlin to show back up. This encounter is different from the Manis event in that Even if you wipe to Manis, Taeshlin will still respawn so that the same guild or other guilds may try the encounter. The way Mirror Golems are set, any guild that has the Manis key and can get to the Mirror Golem's taeshlin can hail him and walk away and prevent other guilds from attempting/killing this event.

I beleive Taeshlin should be changed to a 20mins respawn or Somewhere around there.

If anyone else has suggestions feel free to submit but please do not trash this.

Thank you.
 
i would agree. i think that taesh should be on a 1 hour respawn or so and the golems themselves are the 4.5 +- so that guilds cant just block others=/
 
The way it used to be is that once Taeshlin is hailed the mirrors are active until killed. The reason Taeshlin needs to respawn for manis is that you could potentially kill some of the manis and then the whole encounter needs to be reset. This isn't an issue for mirrors. Also the mirrors are up often before the Taeshlin is up, I am not sure what regulates their spawn time, but I am confident that once Taeshlin is hailed they remain active until killed. Are you sure this is not the case?
 
You have to activate the mirrors or else they aren't active and only way is through taeshlin. Mirrors aren't a up untill killed thing is the problem. The become un-active after around two hours.

I was always under the same impression as eldorath. The golems to my knowledge have always remained active until killed. They will however become inactive if the zone reboots after taeshlin has been hailed. A GM can restart the encounter for you if this occurs.

I may not be correct, but are you saying that you've sat attempting Mirrors for two hours with the zone being perfectly stable and they just stopped working?
 
The mirror golems themselves are on a VERY quick respawn. You almost always see the mirror golems up, its Taeshlin being up that means the encounter is up. If you are seeing mirror golems up and invuln without taeshlin it means that the golems are not up.
 
hmm...well we've tried it a few times where we wiped and came back the next day, knowing that no guilds had even entered prison since: adn we couldnt' touch them....whats that about? (happend more than once)

no.

OP is one long Taeshlin fight involving multiple encounters.

I don't understand what you're doing with this thread anymore. You claimed the mirror golems became inactive two hours after hailing taeshlin but you dont answer any of the questions posed at this very statement.

:what: :(

::edited::
 
Last time we did Mirror Golems and went back the next day (Mirror Golems were invulnerable), the GMs told us that they could not spawn Taeshlin and that we would have to wait for Taeshlin to spawn (and no one had killed MG's in the mean time).

We are having this same problem and the GMs were not able to restart the encounter (I don't think the zone went down either). I believe we were told that once you spawn them, you have a certain amount of time (2 hours?) and then the golems become inactive. Then you must wait for Taeshlin to respawn (3 days?). If this is how it IS supposed to be, could it be changed? As far as I know, it is the only encounter that cannot be attempted when not defeated. If it is NOT suppoosed to be like this, could someone look into it to see if it is currently buggy?

Thanks!
 
The encounter stays active until another guild kills it or the zone goes down. There is no timer that they would reset on.

If the zone crashes while you are killing them or while you are in zone you can petition and get taeshlin respawned. What I understand from what I was told to do in the previously mentioned incident from the admins is if you leave the zone for an extended period of time and a patch eats them they are blown.

That being said its a Wiz encounter and I cant comment on changing the way they work. I do think they are fine the way they are though imho. Just a stumbling block that everyone had to contend with on the way to Inner Prison.
