Kommentar von caslav

60.68

Kommentar von 34181

you have to kill the "Gordunni Mage-Lord" for it.

Kommentar von 36726

Didnt had any problems with the droprate, had it on my first kill.

Kommentar von 36554

This item didn't drop on the first one I killed. i got it about 10 kills or so.

Kommentar von 53542

Dropped at location 60,68 mage.

Kommentar von 554

the mobs share spawn points. So if you don't see many Mage-Lords start killing everything around there.

There were only 3 when i got there then I started killing all the battle masters and then alot of mage-lords started spawning.

Kommentar von 64720

Got my orb of 10th or so mage, guess its down to luck really...

I got mine in the Ruins of Isildien inside the temple.. if that helps.

Kommentar von 17625

Got the orb of the 3th mage lord i downed, cords are 100% correct

Kommentar von 75964

Took me over an hour to get that orb, think I've must have killed around 25-30 mage-lords before i got it :/

Kommentar von 73641

Took me about 15 kills to get the orb. Not too shabby.

Kommentar von lukeaxx

You have to kill the Gordunni Mage-Lords for it, the droprate is very good, i got it on my second kill. I found the Mage-Lords at the coords 58.68, Hope this helps :)

Kommentar von Jidor

Took me 8 kills to get the orb. Easy mobs to kill, at least as a level 45 Hunter.

Kommentar von 81678

It dropped on ~15th kill for me, I suppose i was unlucky..

Kommentar von 61074

i got it from 59.67

Kommentar von 38341

Is it bugged in 2.3? I honestly killed 70+ Mage-Lords and not one dropped it. For a 6% drop-rate that's a little ridiculous.

I gave up just now, I wouldn't suggest going out of your way to find it.

Kommentar von 141067

As of 2.4, I can't actually pick this quest up. I returned the scroll from the prequest, but no follow-up.. Anyone having the same trouble?

Edit: My bad. The quest's not bugged, rather you had to click on the scroll. Don't make the same mistake I did, click the scroll ^^

Kommentar von 40061

Honestly, nothing posted here has shown a bug of any sort exists. Perhaps the earlier posts gave everyone the impression the drop rate is high, but if you look at the Gordunni Orb's drop rate, it is actually only 7% (as I type this, there are 18,799 documented kills on wowhead, so it's probably fairly accurate). You would in fact be quite lucky to receive it on your first or second kill.

It is not improbable for a streak of 35 kills without a drop to occur when the drop rate is only 7%. In fact, it is a 0.93^35 = 0.078868 or approximately 7.89% chance you'll kill 35 mage-lords without a drop. It is actually more probable to have a dry streak of 35 than for the orb to drop on the first kill.

A streak of 70 without a drop is indeed quite unlikely but not impossible. Ignoring the fact it might have been exaggerated, one single story of an improbable 0.62% chance does not indicate a bug exists. At best it suggests one exists, although I highly doubt it. Further testing would need to be done. One would need to repeatedly destroy the orbs with and without /script LeaveParty() and document the corresponding probabilities. I personally neither care enough nor have the patience to test this myself. Plus I completed the quest a few minutes ago.

If you want to know what I think (and I do admit guessing is pointless), Triggerclaw might have left a raid before questing, yet the game still considered his character to be in a raid. Perhaps the GM saw this and gave him the script command to leave the "ghost raid." If this were the case, the bug is actually a raid related bug and not quest specific. There is also the distinct possibility the GM was clueless and proposed a placebo.

Obviously I cannot completely rule out the possibility of a bug, but nothing presented here has really suggested it exists.

i got it from the mage-lord at 2nd kill

Kommentar von Thottbot

I soloed the quest, 48 lvl warrior, got the orb at 59,73 from a 46 lvl mage-lord, I think that 45 lvl mage-lord are not dropping the item

Kommentar von Thottbot

I had to kill about 20 mage lords before it dropped. But this is the guy who can't roll over a 20 for an item talking.

Kommentar von Thottbot

The low drop rate that Thott indicates is because most people do not have this quest. I killed about 5-8 Mage lords before it dropped.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Got orb at 58.70 - kill 4-6 lords 45lvl.

Kommentar von Thottbot

There in the ruins with the warlocks, warlords, and shamens.

Kommentar von Thottbot

60,70 - Killed 2 46 Mage-Lords and the second one dropped it.

Kommentar von Thottbot

solod this as 44 warrior and dropped on my 5th kill. cords are 58,70
do the quest ogres of feralas at the same time coz its saves time

Kommentar von Thottbot

I found it at 60,66 it dropped off a Ogre Mage dude...hope this helps everyone out

Kommentar von Thottbot

Its in the big building where the warlocks and shamyms are. bunch of mages in there. solod as a 42 fire mage

Kommentar von Thottbot

Got it after killing 4 mages. 60.67

Easy

Kommentar von Thottbot

Go south all the way to the "temple grounds" and kill a lvl 46 on that area. After killing about 15 45 and no drop. I killed one 46 on the "temple grounds" and it dropped. GL! xD

Kommentar von Thottbot

1 ogre, 1 orb =D
hehe i think i had lucky ^^

Kommentar von Thottbot

I got the orb the first guy I killed...maybe I am just lucky?

Kommentar von Thottbot

Easy quest 57.70.
You just have to kill the mage lords soloed 45 hunter

Kommentar von Thottbot

I farmed the gordunni area for days killing lvl 45 Mage-lords, with no luck getting an orb. Finally I found a lvl 46 Mage-lord and miraculously got the drop. While lvl 45 gordunnis may drop the orb, I believe the best chances of finding one is from a lvl 46.

Kommentar von Thottbot

drops from a lvl 4g mage-lord, in the temple

Kommentar von Thottbot

Im not sure why, maybe a bug, but instead of the Orb droping from a Ogre it dropped from a water elementle lvl49.

Kommentar von Thottbot

This is no longer limited to the mage type of ogre as mine just came off of a 46 warlord at 61,69

Kommentar von Thottbot

just kill the lvl 46 mage-lords, they have higer drop rate

Kommentar von Thottbot

done it in a party of 2 lvls 39

Kommentar von Thottbot

Right after my post the next one dropped...

Kommentar von Thottbot

Solood as a 42 hunter, needed 12 kills, but got it from a mage lord. Easy quest =P

Kommentar von Thottbot

yeah ive been killing these mage-lords for about 2 hours now, and nothing. probably a total of 50+ mage-lords, its either bugged or a crap quest. i recommend not wasting your time

Kommentar von Thottbot

ya..been here for about an hour + and no orb..about 20+ mages dead.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I killed like 200 of them..
Not even one dropped for me.. :(

Kommentar von Thottbot

after i killed 250 it dropped at cord 59.67 for me !

Woohoo! :)

Kommentar von Thottbot

This certainly isn't the nicest of quests. The drop-rate is pretty damn poor! Though don't be discouraged, think about the XP you'll be getting.

If I was you I would mix it with this quest; https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/quest=2980/die-oger-von-feralas

The ogres are around here, you'll need to kill the Mage-Lord ones.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I soloed it a 42 druid, got it on my first mage...

Kommentar von Thottbot

yes bit boring so did i:/59.67

Kommentar von Thottbot

HAHA Also dropped on the first one. right where "Xil_is_the_best" says on the map is where it dropped.

Note: It doesnt matter but there was a shaman and a mage lord around a fire at 58,67 , that was the magelord that dropped it.

Kommentar von Thottbot

i killed 2 mage-lords and the orb dropped

Kommentar von Thottbot

Easiest quest, killed one mage-lord got the orb, quest completed. 45 balance druid

Kommentar von Thottbot

Drop me, when i have killed the third mage-lord

Kommentar von Thottbot

Its me again and I now did this quest with my druid, the last time was my hunter. And right where I said it was with him, by that fire, it was dropped by that exact same ogre on the first try with my druid as well.

SO KILL THIS MAGE LORD FIRST @ 58,67 next to the fire, paired with a shaman, both chars got drop by him on first try.

hope this helps

Kommentar von Thottbot

56 mage dropped mine waaaay at the back behind two pillars/cliff.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Got it after 16 kills O_o

Kommentar von Thottbot

This quest is a pain in the butt i have killed all the mage-lords at least 5 times and still nothing!

Kommentar von Thottbot

killed buttloads of mage-lords, like 30, then killed the one next to the frie and shaman, IT DROPPED! KILL IT!

Kommentar von Thottbot

Phew killed 3 and got it , just go there and kill mages ez ( good luck for me but it is frustrating if it doesnt drop as there r batle masters / warlords / shamans veyr very close to mage lords) gl

Kommentar von Thottbot

It took me three Mage-lords to get one.

Kommentar von Thottbot

wahoo dropped 2nd kill on mage lords had to fight my way past a couple shamans first tho

Kommentar von Allakhazam

First kill had the Orb with ... ^^ If you ever wanted to see a Rouge happy that would be the time...

Kommentar von Allakhazam

1st kill it dropped.
managed to kill one mage lord lvl 46 with my lvl 41 warrior.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I had a horrible drop rate on this quest. I killed 48 mage-lords, but to no avail, so I gave up. Later that night I decided to try my luck again and returned to the ruins. I killed one mage-lord and got the orb first try. It seems that if you're searching rabidly for the orb, it won't drop. My advice is to take a break and go back later if you're having trouble, and you'll probably have much better results.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I got it on the first kill. 59,68

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I found this quest to be ridiculously easy at level 44 (affliction warlock). I picked off the mage-lord guarding the ramp to the temple and then the guy doing the long patrol around the entrance. Inside you will find several mage-lords. It's very easy to take down everyone inside, one at a time. After cleaning out the mobs inside with no orb, I went back outside where I found that the first mage-lord that I had killed (guarding ramp) had respawned. This time he had the orb. Very quick completion time with this one combined with the final "ogres of feralas" quest.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

got for 11st

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Got it first try, below coords dead on. at lvl 45 with epic weapon, stil advisable to be with another person, just speeds it up.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

hey coords: around 60.70 ... kill mage-lords. i got it after 5-10 kills

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Killed tons of mage-lords , still no orb dropped .

Kommentar von Allakhazam

The orb Dropped from a level 45 Mage-Lord - I only had to kill about 3 of them, all level 45's, before this happened

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Couldn't find the orb until three mage-lord kills after finishing The Ogres of Feralas quest that also comes from and goes back to Rok Orhan. Might just be a coincidence but worth a shot after some of the terrible drops others have been getting. Got 8000xp for the two on return.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

The coords listed below are 100% on. I got the Orb on my first Mage-Lord kill. Very easy quest.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

This quest isn't bugged, I got the gordunni orb off the second level 46 mage-lord I fought. I took it out right in the ruins of isildien took me all of 5 minutes. I've heard that the orb only drops off of level 46 mage-lords so that may be the problem.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Tis first kill at 59,68

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Coords are 59 68. Exactly.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Edited, Sat Mar 19 20:12:59 2005

Kommentar von Allakhazam

If you can`t spell the name take up another character, or hide your
strange makeup fetish.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Killed 25. But the coords are dead on. Try to make sure to kill the spawn in the corner.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I killed *ALOT* of mage-lords around the ruins of Isildien with not a single drop. Some of the ogres seem to spawn random mage-lords/warlocks/shaman so I killed absolutely everything I could see to get more spawns. Still no luck. I went into the cavern and mined some ores aswell as killing more mage-lords - still not a single drop - I must have killed between 50 and 60 mage-lords.

Then I went up the ramp to the big ruin and circled it - the orb dropped on the 3rd or 4th mage-lord. Try doing that too - if you have problems - it may be a different drop rate for the mage-lords up there ?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

aaaah i dont believe u... 40mage-lords.... 236mage-lords ... 50-60mage-lords... who will stuck on some stupid Q and kill dozens of fcuking mobs... everyone i know have to kill no more than 6-7 of them... mine droped on third

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Ok, after 2 hours of killing everything around the ruins where the mage-lords spawn, i started to count my kills :P
currently 236 mage-lords killed, and even more of all the others! gotten 2 lvls here only trying to get this orb lol, wtf?
this just cant be right, with 3.20% drop chance i should have gotten 1 each 32 mage-lords or so. so i should have gotten about 12-13 orbs so far :D but nada! but i did get 1 epic, and 4 blues, and tons of cash and xp... but still this is just stupid!
I can understand some bad luck, but this is just not right!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

got it on the 41th kill

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I don't understand why people have such bad luck with these kinds of quests.. The first mage lord I killed gave me the orb lol..

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I envy you lucky SOB's who get this on the first try. I have killed hte ones at 59,68 3 times now and still no orb. Running around and in building, up ramp etc... At least I have a half bar of new exp and extra money from pickpocketing. Sigh.

GIMME!

Kommentar von vlaka

Yet another quest where the drop rate really hammers home that Blizzard wanted players to waste their time.
Absolutely not worth the time it takes for the RNG to kick in.

Kommentar von maglen69

I must be the unluckiest person or something is bugged with this quest.

2 hours, 50+ Mages-Lord's and countless other respawns killed to get mages to spawn and the damned orb hasn't dropped.

Yeah, this drop rate is ridiculously bad.
