Council's curiosity

[ByMyBlade]

Wondering if, while in Redbeard's level, am I supposed to kill all 6 sentinels in order to complete the "look around his room" quest? Those things are TOUGH. A few fireblasts, and I'm done, let alone do enough damage to them.

Thanks

Yep. It helps if you're playing a character class who can summon allies, or at least has a summoning scarab. The idea is to keep the sentinels occupied on their own side of the room, because they become more powerful if they cross over from the west to the east side or vice versa.

Since I use a lot of hacking around in the SW games to make them easier to complete for the first time, I didn't have much problems with them, but if you keep them near walls you should pass them easily

I am a tinkermage and this "quest" is ridiculous. I have a summoning scarab, but I have no idea how to keep all six sentinels close to their 'home base' so that I can destroy them. Any practical tips on how to prevent them from swarming me, crossing the room and exploding me to smithereens?

Basically stand near the centre of the room and try to make two turrets, one slightly to the west of centre and one slightly to the east of centre, before the sentinels get close enough for combat mode to start. A temporal pylon and a freezing or inferno turret are probably best, in order to damage and debuff the enemy. If you're still having trouble, come back at a higher level.

Or use a teleporting scarab and lots of elixirs to remove fatigue so you can get away from them as they attack your turrets.
