Soloed at L18 undead shadow priest... I found it best to enter the village at the west entrance located at coordinates 47:74... I pulled one Moonrage at a time and avoided the 2-man patrols.&nbsp The shackles do NOT only drop from elders they also drop from watchers and sentries.&nbsp It took me one hour and a lot of patience, but I got all 6 shackles.&nbsp I did the quest at night when all the humans had turned into Moonrages, so I don't know about the shackles dropping by day?&nbsp I would not say this was tough at all so much as using battle tactics.

My tactic worked out perfectly... I would first cast Fortitude, Rank 2 and Inner Fire, Rank 1 on myself.&nbsp I then pulled using Shadow Word: Pain, Rank 2, and then ran back around the bldg to where I had slipped into the fence.&nbsp This niche is perfect because once they run from fear of death, they NEVER bring reinforcements as they get stuck in the niche, or can't walk far enough to get the reinforcements before they come back to you for the final blow.

Once they're in the niche with you, DoT them again with Shadow Word: Pain, Rank 2 and Touch of Weakness, Rank 1.&nbsp Then hit them with your wand until your own life is down by half.&nbsp At that point, throw a Power Word: Shield, Rank 2 around yourself and use Heal, Rank 1 (NOT Lesser Heal).&nbsp As soon as you're healed, refresh Shadow Word: Pain, Rank 2 on the monster, and attack again with your wand.&nbsp Repeat this until they're dead.&nbsp Rinse and repeat until you have all 6 shackles.&nbsp That's it!&nbsp Good Luck!

Confirmed that shackles drop during daytime. Do the quest whenever you want.

The Inn is located straight down from the main entrance to the city, its behind a little "fountain" looking thing at the bottom of the trail. It has exactly the same setup/layout as the Inn in Brill.

Location of the village east side entrance is 47. 71.

there is a small hole into the west wall, to enter inside the town. here u can attack one by one, it's more eawy
