Editor's Notes

This dungeon wasn't as cool as it's brother dungeon, Remains of Castle Landsview (really looking forward to Trengal Keep!). While the atmosphere was a bit better, the mob placement was just bad. It wasn't very challenging, but part of that probably was that we were a bit above the level range really. We were lv 22-24, but fighting 19-21s, most of which were 3 dots. This is probably more of a small group dungeon.

(Edit) Actually after looking at the max mob level we saw in there (22), I'm reclassing this as lv 17-22 (lv 20 avg), a tier 2 (lv 11-20) dungeon. We were way too powerful for this place. It would have been great if we were all lv 18 or 19.

Also the named mobs were just not there. There was pretty much one actual named that didn't have anything to do with any quests, and his drop table was pretty bad. We got his blue gloves 90% of the time. We did see one other named, Spirit of Iggiri Contras, but only once.

There were some quests to spawn some all caps mobs (the relic quests), but the drop rate on the relics was really low. We were there for 3 hours clearing the whole place, and only got 3. They really should increase the relic drop rate.

Lastly, we were mainly there to get the Crux of Cairnworth Hall quest done, but the quest mob JORRIS THE HOUNDMASTER was bugged out the whole time. I ended up having to petition to get his quest drop, so I could complete the quest. The drop rate of the item that spawns Jorris seemed to be a bit better than the parchment drop from the Landsview crux quest. Three hours netted us 4 paws.

All in all, it's a place you probably want to see once, but nothing to really write home about.

Lore

You wouldn't know it from looking at it now, but this once glorious keep served as the home away from home for the Knights of Targonor. All three castles: Trengal Keep, Castle Landsview, and Cairnworth Hall, served as the local defense for the area.

A short lifetime ago during the war with the orcs, Houndmaster Joris, son of Karujin Gulgrethor, overtook Cairnworth Hall. He did so with the aid of a twisted metal torque from which he could draw arcane powers.

At the same time, Brenor Sparling was a councilman at Cairnworth Hall at the time the war broke out. There are records coming together that prove his unjust ways. During the war with the orcs he jailed many men for personal reasons, claiming these people to be treasonous against New Targanor.
