Bugtracker? But all in all probably not, because when NPC land killing blow you won't get the quest credit.

We appreciate your help in this. I know it's a bloody pain trying to get the PQ's ready for onslaught while balancing out the epic quests.

Aye! Nothing more to add.
I don't expect easy rewards anyway, it's still an epic quest and the items should be worth the fight.

Is there a way around that? For example by tracking kill credit based on % dmg done by players (groups)? Or even just having done damage to the mob within x seconds of it dying? Would get around issues with multiple people trying to complete steps at the same time with limited mob availability (less relevant these days unless new quests drop) as well as allow more interesting designs with NPC help for both quests and PQs. I remember some PQ issues in the past where friendly NPCs would 'help' kill the boss and occasionally bug the PQ if the got the killing blow (Destro PQ near DW warcamp). This would circumvent that.

The Order Dwarf fight is a tough one but doable by any class at 40

There are always ways, but the more complex the system the easier it is to exploit it. What for? Is there any value added, really, in doing the above?
