File:Quest_ring.gif Survival - Barrow-downs (Skirmish)
Difficulty: Tier I, Tier II, Tier III
Sizes: Small Fellowship, Fellowship, Half Raid
Level: 40 to 70
"Those who have long haunted the Barrow-downs at the command of the Witch-King are angered by your intrusion. Surviving is the least of your newfound concerns..."


The Barrow-downs skirmish is unique in that it's a defense skirmish but you're not expected to survive. The goal is simply to see how long you can last.

Initial Room

When you first enter, you will be in a small room with a campfire in the center and a Shade standing by the way out. Run forward to the Shade and the Shade will invite you to "Follow, if you dare." When you exit the room, you will be in the regular Barrow-downs instance. If you die and release, you will be brought back to this room. If everyone from your party is dead or in this first room, the skirmish will be ended.

The skirmish

There will be successive waves of adds and occasional lieutenants, all of whom will periodically be buffed.
