Sharleedah seems broken

We killed her twice today and neither time did she drop the scroll needed to get keyed for the instances next to her. We had three people trying to get keyed and none of us were able to, even after taking Sharleedah down twice...

We attempted an attunement run. Sharleedah did drop the documents, quest was received and turned in, but no one could enter ZS. :/

Calistar, I suggest you submit a ticket concerning this.

I do remember there use to be a glitch with the Documents concerning ZS runs and not allowing the player in.

I've had the documents fail to drop on occasion as well. Not just recently, but during the course of the pass 2 years.

Also, just turning in the documents isn't enough to enter ZS. A player must go and talk to Apat at Titans Hill after turning in the documents to Diloss. Then return to Diloss for the quest to attune and sneak on an Anklar to zip up to the ZS.

If you were to go around calling a male a 'girl', he might get pretty annoyed too.

Sharleedah will probably drop the documents for you if you start calling him a 'he' as you should. :p

Actually, all that's required to Enter ZS & HotDL is that you right-click the Documents & then right-click all the other stuff that it expands into.
If you don't right-click the Map, it will require handing in the quests and going to visit Apat and back to Diloss as Rikatah describes, but right-clicking the Map allows access without doing anything about the quests.

Looks like a male, has a female name.

Just killed Sharleedah again.... Nothing...... Still no documents to click on to get keyed for the instances...... :mad:

Finally got a reply to my ticket as well.... The only thing they had to say was try to group with people who have not been attuned.... The first two kills were with others all looking to get keyed.... The other suggestion was to change channel... What would changing channel have to do with a mob not dropping quest items?

I honestly don't think of Sharleedah as being a girls' name...

Anyway, I had a thought:
Have you previously completed the quest where you must kill Sharleedah?

The completion of this quest might flag a setting somewhere which prevents the documents dropping for you. I'm just guessing, btw...

But, reading your post again, it sounds like you aren't able to enter the instances yet and need the drop?

This made me think about how the game's quests and epic quest lines have ended up a mess ...

There's actually an epic quest line to this story before reaching Shaarledah. A player finds that's there's three naga brothers and the BIG brother is Shaarledah. (No more spoilers .... )

So, anyway ... I believe the importance of questing and following quest lines is undermined by the player's thrill to get into instances that they know nothing about just to get good gear and mems. Unfortunately, players get comfuzzed about what to do in the game because higher level players try to rush them through attunements.

Could this be a result? Probably.

I do not know the original OP or their methods of questing and playing the game, but I do believe the percentage of players getting lost quest lines due to higher level players pushing them through the game could result in a post like this.

Futhermore, in my honest opinion, newer players told to use CoO and Xaveria for leveling before reaching DDC or DFR is another reason players get lost in the quest and quest lines. Sorry to get off topic a bit there ...

You are right. I was lvling normally but then got pushed to lvl faster. Went to CoO to top off my main class and then when I went back to the older parts, another pushed me to Dalanis. My secondary class is currently working through Savage Lands but I am still being pushed to lvl my main in the Dalanis area. They want me to get better gear so had me mark next to Sharleedah to get keyed.

That is why it is so frustrating. Rush rush rush rush and things ain't happening like I was told they should. All I was told was kill Sharleedah, loot some documents, click on said documents, be keyed to get into instances. When they didn't drop the second time we got the kill, they said send a ticket cause it normally drops for them, even though they are already keyed.

I asked about any quests leading up to killing Sharleedah, that maybe it is off a chain that will trigger the drops, they said no. All they did was go in and kill her and were keyed. Said all I should have to be to get the documents is lvl 53 or higher and in the group that kills him. I am 55....

The last few times I have tried to get people attuned with Sharleedah, the same thing happened to us. I think the boss just bugs, because what seems to fix it is a server reset. Try again tomorrow Gilderoi, after reset. I bet they drop on the first kill.

Just an update, at 1:30 AM EST I was accepted in a group that was going to try and get some of their guild-mates keyed. We killed her and when I went to loot, I was able to pick up secret documents. So I guess the fourth time is the charm. But something must still be wrong with Sharleedah if the documents are getting bumped off the loot table.

I've just checked the loot table and I verified this on both live and testserver and the droprate is 100%. It's unknown to me why it was sometimes missing, but I hope the issue won't appear again :)
