Mission 2: Fort Ranik

- Start by heading north and helping out the Ascalon warriors defeat the Charr in the area. After numerous encounters with small groups of Charr you will enconter an NPC by the name of Master Armin Saberlin. Speak to him and he will ask you to rescue his son (Trooper Deeter Saberlin) from his Charr imprisonment which you will need to do in order to complete to bonus mission.
- There is a little side quest in this mission. After helping the Ascalon warriors defeat the Charr in the beginning of the mission, be on the lookout for an NPC named Gurn Blanston. He can be found almost directly west of a where you will descend a small flight of stairs. He will give you a very easy quest which you can complete after you are done here. To complete it you must deliver Gurn's message to his wife, Melka Blanston who can be found south, southwest of Ascalon City.
- Continue heading north until you spot two Charr Overseers guarding a prisoner. Defeating the two Overseers will open the prison and free the men inside, one of which is Trooper Deeter Saberlin. Another easy 1000 experience.
- Head back the way you came and continue heading north. You will eventually spot a sizeable group of Charr in the middle of what looks like a catapult blast radius. In the surrounding area you will find small groups of Charr which you should dispose of before continuing. Kill the bosses surrrounding Seigemaster Lornar and talk to him after doing so. He will tell you that the trebuchet is missing some parts and cannot function without them. Backtrack to where you killed the small groups of Charr earlier and you should come across a few "wrecked catapults." You will need to find three of these and each one will drop the missing trebuchet part. After you find all of the three pieces (Release Lever, Arming Crank, and a Restraining Bolt) and return them to Seigemaster Lornar you will be able to operate the trebuchet. Load it by clicking on the firing lever and click it again to fire. This will take out the large group of Charr standing in the trebuchet's blast radius.
- Head northwest from this point until you come to what looks like a burning statue. As soon as you approach it a number of Charr will run up and crowd around the statue. DO NOT engage them as there is an easier way to dispose of them. Head back northeast until you find another trebuchet. This one is fully operational so all you need to do is load and fire. The trebuchet is aimed directly at the burning statue around which the Charr forces have gathered. After you smoke them all proceed and clear out any survivors. North of the burning statue you will find the last group of Charr. Defeat them and the mission is complete.
