While doing this quest, also do The Field of Honor. When the target is at less than half health, click the Sinstone Fragment next to the quest listing or put the Sinstone Fragment from your bags on your action bar.

To reach the NPC for return the quest you need interact with Vine Ladder inside the tower.

/way 60,0, 79,3 Vine Ladder

I had a hard time with this as a Hunter. I put my pet on passive and then when the mob was around half health, I would trap it and my pet would desist attacking. Then I could offer the quest item.

Comment by LordChristoff

I had to kill around 20 of the guards before finally finding one that actually wanted the offer. It's a pain, but I had the most sucsess on the ramp up to the Witherfall Ruin.

Comment by Gymlea

The Venthyr are on the ramps/roads leading into the castle.

Comment by Qoko

Somehow I managed to get one to proc the stone, but then ended up killing him anyway. Felt a bit like a betrayal, but I don't think he actually became allied; anyone else seen this?

Comment by FastlaneHS

The quest item can be interrupted at times (as well as simply not working). Here's a tip: Use touch of Karma (or your classes equivalent) to cc the mob once you have it below 35%. Then use quest item. Much easier this way.

It was my fist time on this quest as a hunter. For the quest to be done I had to put my pets on Passive, and turn off Growl.
I just DPS the mobs, turn my back on them when on low health, pushed passive button on pets to stop damage and then I press the button of the quest

Comment by WoWplayer001

Very, very annoying quest. This mainly due to the fact that other dimwits in the area are going to go gung-ho and kill them while you're casting for the sinstone. You're also going to have to kill many, many more venthyr than what is required in The Field of Honor so make sure you do them simultaneously. I'd say the odds of getting one to respond to a sinstone was one in ten, as I killed just about 30 venthyr to complete this quest.

As a hunter, doing this for first time, just recall your pet (follow) and it instantly stops attacking. You can use quest item as mob follows pet back to your location. No damage at all (or very minimal).

The NPC interactions associated with this quest:

Nadjia the Mistblade says: At least some of Matyas's followers are forced to serve him, as I was. Free them if you can.

The player offers a sinstone to various Briarbane guards, with only some of them accepting.

Briarbane Arbalest says: How insulting. Matyas is a friend. He doesn't compel me.
Briarbane Cavalier says: I am loyal to House Briarbane!
Briarbane Footman says: I have no interest in someone else's sinstone. Die!
Briarbane Arbalest says: Not mine. Die!
Briarbane Cavalier says: Sadly, that isn't mine so I must fight on.

Briarbane Arbalest says: Bless your name.
Briarbane Cavalier says: How did you get my sinstone? Oh, thank you!
Briarbane Footman says: I am free, finally. You have my thanks.
Briarbane Arbalest says: I have no desire to fight you and now cannot be compelled.
Briarbane Cavalier says: This changes everything. You are a marvel.

Comment by Ehayen

They really should've named this quest Briarback Mountain.

That's a huge missed opportunity.

Comment by Ehayen

Easy mode for hunters:

1. Set your pet to Defensive.
2. Attack the mob once.
3. Press Esc to stop attacking but let your pet continue to attack.
4. Watch for the mob to get to 30%.
5. At 30% set your pet to Passive to stop their attack.
6. Target the mob.
7. Use the zone button on them.

Repeat 2x.

Pro tip for max cap players: use Foam Sword toy.

Comment by mek002

60+ shams, I switched to my Raptor took off my shield and my weapon, and just attacked using frost shock once I let my raptor attack them and used the tablet it took a while but aI was able to get the quest done. I hope that helps!

Offer of Freedom

Weaken Briarbane venthyr and then offer them a sinstone.

	Compelled venthyr freed (3)

Provided item:

	Sinstone Fragment (1)

Description

Just as I was, some of the Briarbane venthyr you encounter will have been compelled to serve Matyas. They likely will not want to fight you, but will have no choice. Once they are injured, they may be willing to pause to see if one of the sinstones you recovered earlier is theirs. Free those you can. The use of a sinstone to compel others isn't fair.
