I have not seen Warden Sheezol in the court of Korucrust, and I was wondering if you can stay in the zone and keep clearing the roaming warden, or if he must be up when you first zone in.

I don't think so... I've seen him a few times, he's just a rare mob. Keep trying.

He is either up or not, him or the PH only spawns once. However, you can invis all the way back to his room (on the right) to see if he is up. If not, zone out and wait for the zone lockout to reset (30min) and look again.

His PH is the puritan in the room with the executioners and the event trigger of throwing the prisoner into the pit.

Just like Dio above says, enter, invis to check if he's up, and if he's not, exit and wait 30 minutes. If you have help (which you'll need to kill him in the first place), you can conceivably get each person to zone into different instances until you get one with the Warden up, and then have that person hold the instance until everyone's lockout is expired and can enter that instance to kill him.

Once he's dead, the long term lockout sets in (3 hours?). Took me 3 or 4 kills to get the Shackle of the Court to drop.

THE REAL DEAL ON KOROCUST:
yes, the best idea i have seen and use is the method where the entire group disbands and seperately goes to korocust, providing you have a guilded group of friends you can count on. everyone zones in to different instances, and runs past mobs somehow to see if the warden is up.
when someone does... everyone else zones out, then resets their timer after 30 minutes. while you wait, you kill the bridge keeper and others around for drops, work on leveling a less then 80.

1. clear the main room, leave the white ghostly guy in front room alone, he doesnt do anything, just clear the pathing chokidai handlers and ghostly blue dizoks.
2. get the quest from the iron maiden on left back side of room, everyone.
3. clear the pathing dizok/handers in both halls, clear the left room, and get every person their bones. this room respawns , so get the bones from the grounds and leave the room.
4. hit the flying warden in the back hall, closest to right room, and get yoursefl ported to the jail, move to back of room, it will break the encounter, pally first, healers second, everyone else last. if enchanters die, you can rez in jail. get yoru bones from jail. and let the next person know when they respawn, he wont port you unless bones are on the ground. once you get bones, either, feather fall to hall way, so you dont aggro new mobs.
once your all done clear the right room , all mobs, and ONLY ONE PERSON GRAB BONES FROM THE FLOOR. everyone wil get a quest update from the main mob in right room.
once you do this, you have that one person turn in bones, it spawns korocust, kill him.
easiest to go alphabetical in order , the next person goes to get bones from right room
THIS ROOM DOES NOT RESPAWN, SO YOU WONT GET AGGRO.
ONE person gets bones, turns in quest, ALL kill korocust, then the next , and the next, and so on.
IF the warden is up... you get 7 chances for a chest in 20-40 minutes. if not, still get 6 chances.
typical drops are mage slipper, staff, chromatic essence, and necro/bard masters.
good luck and have fun.

That tip of disbanding and checking multiple instances really helped. Thanks, Tharinor.

Naneeje, if you're writing a comprehensive guide, mention evac. A lot of people are still afraid to evac, because it used to zone the group out. Of course, I don't see why that's a problem, since it is persistent. But they are.

I got a guardian master. If bard masters were common here, We'd be back pretty often, but I haven't seen any. Are you sure that's not just your luck of the draw?

NANEEJE

YA, last night yielded the gavel of the court, great one hand crushing weapon, and for the other group, the shackles of the court, probably the best wrist item non raid, great def stats...
as far as the master, 2 yesterday, one templar, and one swashbuckler.
please remember though, we go in no matter what, warden or not, its a great place to take your lower level guildies, 73+, mobs are easy, zone is a blast to have fun in, and 6 chances at chests in no time, now the chest drop the normal slippers, and staff, but its transmutable, we transmute this crap into good stuff,infusion of mana, reality usually, and sacred powders.
As far as the Warden, our guild took two trips yesterday, we get full raid group, divide up into 4 matched groups, then each go in, in hopes of some master drops, or adornment parts.
Its tough until you get used to the flow, but once everyone knows what they are doing, your in and out in 45 minutes. and its a great stopping point on the way to voes/maidens/chelsith.
IF you dont have a strong enough group for maidens, chelsith, go there, we did it with 4 last night again, which is stupid cause cause we couldnt get the 2 extra chest, but it was monday night...
good luck and have fun.

OK, so we do korocust all the time, any word on when they are going to make more out of the zone, they have so many useless graphics in there possible npc's, and that damn white ghostly korocust that doesn't seem to have a purpose, i would love to see korocust improved, get more content out of it, or are we missing something?
