Amulet of Necropotence  

 

Killed Dread today and had 3 AoN's drop from him. then terror added 1 more. Fright had none.

I have killed terror twice my friend has killed dread once and fright once
Neither one of them has droped The ball of everliving golem

I needed it for my epic 1.0 for my warrior
This is VERY VERY EXTREMELY RARE

I had it some one MQ it to me for 29,000 Plat

It is Imnpossible to get i am sorry to tell u this i am truely sorry But they NERFED this WHOLE POF zone so bad that. THESE golems are OVERCAMPED.

They are also For Necro Epic And mage Epic AND WIZZY epic. They are so overcamped it is ridiculous.

I am on server Druzil And we dont have ball of everliving golems I have asked for 14 days for someone to get it to me someone finally said i will do it for 29k

It always bothers me that nobody ever mentions the absolute best use of the AoN. For Wizards at least it makes it very easy to use a horse while kiting. If you have a Seru/Emp speed horse, slowing down and stopping to cast isn't that easy. Well have you ever had an illusion cast on you while on a horse? You stop dead in your tracks! So if you are using a horse to kite, all you do is click your AoN--you stop dead--and you start casting. No interrupts!

last i knew on AB the 2 nameds who drop this are on top of eachother by the fire ring. made it very hard to try and kill it

Does this still drop?

Found in Plane of Fear

Actually when I was in my 50's I was soloing ice Giants in Everfrost when a level 70 necro cam and took over my camp. I sent a tell to him and he told me togh, it was his camp now. I waited til he pulled all 3 ice giants and had snared them and then I used my Tolan's legs to dispell them. It was a lot of fun watching the necro die, he even asked me fopr help. I think he could not figure out why every time he would snare one the others would break free and beat the crap out of him. I know I will get flamed for this, but most of the mobs the snare or root on the mob can be broken by any type of the cancel magic series. Rangers and some other classes also have bind sight spells that allow you to cast from another player, so you can make the necro seem like he is the one breaking the root or snare. For the record this was an isolated case as most of the higher level people I have met are very nice; but if someone tries to be a jerk let them pay the consequences.
Bring,
Nice 70 ranger

This post is several years old ~ but still you are my hero! I hate jerks and anyone that would flame you for this is..well.. as big a jerk as someone that would come in and take your camp in the first place!

Someone was saying that the Amulet of Necropotence was being nurffed at next patch (patch past 11/11/06) changing it to a quest instead of a drop? I looked on EQ players.station site to read anything about this on the forms, but did not find anything. Could someone link the site where they discussed this so I can read up on it? Or any information you can give will help. I can see them making a quest. But how would this affect the older ones or will it? I can see them moving it to a tougher mob but leaving it the same ….all/all and trade able…

i know there are those people out there who farm the AoN to sell, but not ALL of us do. the AoN was the first clicky i ever saw, and have wanted one since then (and i love illusions, so....) now going to PoHate, PoSky, and PoFear all in one night, to help some firends get their epic, we killed just about every epic mob in those 3 planes, and an AoN dropped. My luck being what it is, i figured i'd go for it, just for the hell of it, and i won!

(yes, this was a long drawn out story to tell you all that not everyone who has these/kills golems is a farmer, so dont judge =D)O

(All you AoN Farmers can kiss my Elven rear, most of which I have encountered are in the guild PoN (Nameless Server). I have made 59 trips into Fear for my Shaman Epic Tear only to find an Golem up 2 times and lost the roll on one and the other was Ninja looted by a Shaman Named Neverender from the guild Neverender Dragons who looted and said *Ooops* forgot we were supposed to roll.

And for you sorry end gamers you are just as bad with this crap about how it is a very useful insta-clicky junk buff to prevent you from losing your good buffs when mob casts dispell / annull (sp) spells. That line is so full of holes it aint funny.
Like the people telling you how they solo'd a certain mob in there pajama's cuz it is so easy and when mob Soandso aggro;s on the caster I switched in this weapon real fast to gain aggro back to save the caster ... HAHAHAAHHAAHa !! The Weapon is an COMBAT PROC idiot when the time comes that you can WILL your combat proc only weapn to proc exzactly when you want then you are not END gamer you are done .. leave go else where.

Back to the very useful for junk buff crap-line ... before you start your Flameage which I could really careless about 1)Buff the hell out of yourself ... 2)Stand in the corner with all your insta clickies ready and cast Annul / Cancel magic on yourself 3)Then hit your bullcrap insta clicky of choice, 7 out of 10 casts all your good buffs will be gone and all you will have left is the junk ones.

Dispell / Annull / Cancel magic spells are not picky about what freaking spell buff they hit ... nor do they ONLY dispell your very top spell buff. If you buffed yourself and casted cancel magic on yourself to test it you will see a random hit in generally the top 6 buff spots.

You know I have nothing against every sorry sack of lvl 70 wanting to run arund clicking their skelly crap. But be a decent player and yell out in channel that WOOT I scored my 50th AoN which I will Bazaar whore for 300k and by the way the Ball / slime / Cursed / Piccalo is rotting at /loc ?.

If I had it my way the golems corpse would be locked from being looted unless a non- Epic'd player for the loot table which can be dropped is present. Including being at that stage in their epic where they need the drop, after they loot their item then your grimey sleezy scum bag farmin dirt bag can have at your AoN.

Wow, ok, I am off of my soap box now. Feel free to flame away .. feel free to critque my grammar / punctuation / run on sentences. I really dont care because like I said before.

I came ... I saw ... I wrote .. I am gone and wont be back to read your crap. And for you PoN guilded people .. while your clocken the Golems ... I am clocken you. Soon I will be Killen them between your Tracker/Dps switchen and really F-Troop up your program, keep your ears open Nameless cuz when I do .. I will be yellin in channel to come get your Epic loot.

Lastly I will never own a freakin AoN .. I have a Necro / SK / Chanty who can project. And I think it is more important that others in game that need their Epic drops get them.

PS: You funny Anon Farmers kill me .. who do you think your Anon from. I reach over to my other PC hit Eqplayers .. type in your name and I know everything about you down to the dirty socks in your Tinker bags.)

Okay.. To the person who said this, it seems to me you are just jealous you cant get a AoN. Okay, I can kinda see your point about the epic piece, then just talk about it, why do you have to drag a sweet item into this ? Sounds to me like you are very jealous..my advice, grow up..and get over it

ok ok ok, enough of the flaming... i think the real question is this:

If you give this to a level 1 necro, and he equips it, does he die?

a message to all u who think " wow these things sell for a lot lets farm them" u make me sick. with ur perma camping ur messing with 3 epic mobs,(sk, shaman and necro) plz stop for the love of epics

fright dropped this and ball of everliving gollum today on 7th hammer

...on a lvl35-45 GM-Event tonight. It droped from a A Vicious Raptor in WAKENING LAND.

Thanks all for this Fun and this amazing Loot!!! *hug*

Plain and simple fact is that if you have ever played an ogre warrior or a troll. The you know that the mob if cornered can be pushed over top of you and then loose your agro. Poof goto into skeleton form which is an instant cast and you are small enough to corner a mob.

1) It has a great Raid value in being an instant clicky item with a "buff" that doesn't get overwritten by any raid buffs.

2) Illusion items generally has a high affection value amongst High end gaming players. They tend to collect these things since there's so little left in the game actually. This is what u can call an Utility item along with Pegasus feathered cloak, J-boots, Manarobe/manastone, resist Flowers (aura of petals), Weapons with slow/snare procs, etc...

3) As mentioned in some of the previous posts players on PvP servers might have the positive effect of being harder to target. Yes u do have F8, BUT then you will have to constantly position yourself to have that person as the closest one. As I am from a blue server I cannot tell but I would think F8 has little value in a PvP fight consisting of more than a few people.

Would I like to have one ... ofcourse. I've tried to run around in sebilis with 10 people roaming the "streets" in skellie form. That's a great laugh. - And yes I would happilyu pay the 300k it sells for on AB server ... IF I had 300k.

Killed Fright last week and can confirm that AoN drops off of him too. So add to his loot table.

I have one of these on my monk. Only use i have for it is the related to the fact that i really hate all new models so i have them all OFF. But as I also have my selo horse it was a pain to have to see models that, In MY opinion, dont look good. So I got one to ride the horse... used to use woodelf but thats a 6 second cast everytime you zone before casting 3 second horse...

Is it True That the skelly Ilussion form AoN, makes one Immum to Frontal Melee Stuns ??

Just sold mine last night for 200K on torv server , sold fast on the first night I put it up for sell.

Got it off Terror last night, so now we know it can drop off any of the 3 golems, and CT himself.

Looks like I need to start hitting ol' Fear!

I'd been noticing people shouting "WTB Amulet of Necropotence," but no one ever had a link. So I hop on my reliable Allakhazam's and wow.

I'm a RolePlayer and a dualboxer ... Have been for ages. This has tremendous Roleplay Value for me. Instead of having a bickering Ogre and Halfling Pair... I could have an Ogre and his loyal Lich. Time to start saving the Raid points.

As far as paying all that plat for one of these ... never could bring myself to do it with that pair... that and I'm lucky when I've got a few K. Doubt the Ogre will ever see hundreds of K. Will just save up the Raid points.

NOTE: -100 HP isn't an issue for 99% of the people who would use this item. This item is valued for the Illusion which can be done from inventory... not the stats. (If you are using it for the stats on E'ci ... Let me know I'll find you another +Int +MResist neck that doesn't have the -100HP ... then we can make a little trade Iron Amulet of Unseen Horrors.)

Dropped off of Fright Wed night. He should be added as one of the mobs that drops it.

Also on Vallon (PVP) this item is worth 200+ K for several reasons, including being hard to target in pvp, avoiding detection as a healer (or any class for that matter) in mass pvp, the insta clicky (ALL/ALL inventory usage) for dragons of course, and another couple of even better reasons, which I'm not going to list here becuase it will just hasten the nerf which i'm sure is incoming. As a hint, you would find this item especially usefull if you were in the horsey set, or you enjoy wall climbing.

well, yes a level 1 would die over and over,, but it drops in plane of fear,, so maybe its liike all the new stuff and gives -100 hp at level 46+ and a lesser buff at lower levels

-100 hp thats not good but all the other stats like int and skele illusion is good.

Ok, here's the deal on this item, verified by me just seconds before posting this message.

The illusion does the following:
*Makes small races bigger
*Makes big races smaller
*Changes your night vision
*Gives you an excellent insta-click item that works in any zone

The illusion does NOT do the following:
*Modify any stat in any way
*Modify any resist in any way
*Regen mana or hp in any way
*Change faction (that I have noticed so far) in any way - green skellies still attack me when meditating

The illusion *may* do the following (not yet verified):
*Makes you immune to frontal melee stuns
*Impresses the wood-elf honies in Gfay

I have to admit that I felt a bit guilty for rolling on this since I am one of the few non-greedy, non-loot whores, and strictly believe in NBG. I rolled on it only when I overheard that it may eliminate frontal melee stuns. This alone would be an incredible boon to any non-ogre tank, especially hybrids that are forced to cast during melee. If it holds true, I would value the item at well over 100k (80K just for the stun reduction, 10k for the insta-clickability, and 20k for the illusion coolness factor). Personally, I would never sell this thing if it can eliminate those freaking annoying (and sometimes deadly) melee stuns.

My EQ karma was high the night I won this. I was the very first person to roll (0 1000), and rolled a 998 straight up. I let everyone in the raid use it before it found a permanent place in my inventory.

I live and play on a Zek. Where these are really useful is in PvP/mass PvP. Note only because of what was mentioned above about fooling people about who your healers are, but also because for some reasons, people in skelly form are hard to click on and target.
