I'd heard that it had been changed, but I haven't been in RFD since like December, when a well functioning well equipped group I was with got taken down. Including the beta, I've tried to do the escort quest around four times and never succeeded. That final group in December was the closest I've ever gotten. We lasted a long time, but the spawns just kept coming and when the boss spawned with his guards, I and our mage were out of mana and we finally crumbled. I remember reading in a patch note somewhere that the encounter had changed (probably a good thing). Did you guys do it?

We did it, and it sucked hardcore. We had a level 60 paladin escort and we still almost wiped. The end boss dropped a blue mage-only wand and the quest reward was a decent ring (+4 spi +7 stam I believe) but the effort really wasn't worth it except to be able to say we completed it. I don't see how a RFD-level party could complete it, frankly.
