Tomb of the Shadow King - Changed?

[Jeromio]

Did they change this quest somehow with mod 9?

Previously I always had to lure him to the light cage room on the other side of the map to be able to finish him off (and have a buddy or hireling to help with the arrangements).

When trying now, he came out from his coffin and I gave him a scorching ray to be sure I got his attention. Pof! Quest finished!

It was on normal, soloing with one hireling standing guard at the quest entrance.

its been broken like that for months and months. Maybe more than a year.

Ya. I went through all the trouble if getting him to the cage, summoning something to keep him aggroed there, and my hireling wouldn't pull the other lever. In my anger, I nuked him too and yay, quest finished! I think they are repaying us for the eons ago when your group would do everything just perfectly but he remained invulnerable even in the light cage.

Ok... so I'm not alone noticing this then...

So... the quest is either broken... or fixed... depending on how you look at it...

This is wonderful news. This was one of my most hated quests in the game because of this mechanic. I will certainly give it a go again with this change.
