Loc and PH
# Jan 02 2004 at 12:47 PM Rating: Decent
Ok about to attempt this guy for the first time.

I'm a bit confused on the location of the location of PH. Jump down from shop, turn left, and its in the room up the stairs to the right? Or is it past that?

Whats the easiest place to camp? at the top of those stairs or inside?

And what are the chances that a level 60 shammy will be able to slow it?

Thanks for any replies in advance.

65 SK - 65 Cleric - 65 Necro - 65 Shaman - 62 Druid - 56ish Beastlord Usually at the end of each fight cleric is %50m - Shaman %100m and druid %50m.


Uhm,how much mana had the necro left ? Why is he left out there ?

Quote:

I have only had one wipe with Syth and that was due to Shaman going LD before her slow landed - like idiots we told the druid no to evac, we would give it a shot anyway. Beastlord got ate on his first slow attempt and it was all over.


You forgot about the necro again... You know that he can 70% slow, don't you ?
After all the 65 necro could solo this guy...

D. He engrages 8X762 at 10%. His enrage does massive damage and lasts till he is down to about 8% I believe.



Just a hint mate.. ATTACK OFF on enrage..

Solo Sythrax !
# Sep 22 2003 at 11:14 AM Rating: Decent
Thats right. Sythrax can be soloed with 65 Necro using Word of Terris. Chances are if the charm breaks - you die. But it can be done.
Grab yourself a highborn and haste him. Send him in against sythrax , once sythrax is at 97% - slow him with shackle. Throw in an SK and FP and heal your pet with ToD as much as you can. When sythrax reaches 9% he will enrage and do some serious damage - chances are he will kill your pet just as he stops enraging. Then the slowed sythrax comes after you with 8-9% health left, with some careful timing and a good HP buff you should be able to ToD tank him to death !
Needless to say I was rather pleased with myself the first time I took him down solo.

When your charmed pet gets to Sythrax, tell it to guard that location. When Sythrax enrages, use /pet hold until Sythrax stops enraging. Keep healing pet and it should survive the fight. I have only killed Sythrax once and this is what I did. I do not know if this will work if Sythrax is armed, however. I also used the Mend Companion AA early in the fight.

When soloing him with charmed pet hasted, if charm breaks I have yet to die in 25+ breaks, just have force shield on and fd, but.. to stand up later you need to have innate ivu, or else remains agro you right off cause you be under him.

Easy kill
# Aug 21 2003 at 8:51 AM Rating: Decent
Me and two friends decided to take a trip to Veksar. I was playing a 56 paladin, one friend was a 63 shammy and the other one was playing his well-equiped 65 warrior.

We went through the first room with Nobles and went up the stairs, sneaking our way to the first room to the right, into the room where Remains of Sythrax pops, finding his PH up (A Revenant). We killed the revenant and all mobs in the other 4 rooms and RoS popped after a couple of mins. After only one PH!

We called for reinforcements as we knew that some people here posted that he quads for 782. But we decided do give it a try, before the reinforcement friends came along, which I believed was suicide at that moment. Warrior ran to him and started to slash RoS but he forgot to hit defensive disc. After a few seconds and a couple of pokes in his stomach with a rusty chair, he realized what he should do, hit the disc button. I jumped in and started to help keel the RoS with all the power from Brell Serillis and after a few more secs the shammy slowed and Shammy started to focus on healing(he forgot to cripple until the mob was at 60 percent). I saw on the warrior's screen that the mob almost never beat him for over 400, due to the warrior's high AC.

He was MUCH easier than we first thought but with only one problem. Xillions of HP!!! Well, only about 50k or so I think, but It felt like such a long time killing him.

We didn't get any more problems with RoS and shammy was at 80-85% mana when we finally killed this ugly undead(shammy dinged AA, btw) thanks to Canni 5 and 4.

The shammy and warrior could have done him alone but It went a little bit faster with my undead procs. IVU also helped us to get there faster.

He dropped the Hooked So'Shar which went to the warrior(duh) and he replaced his SoD with it in Agro situations where he now uses BoC + SoD if I recall correctly.
This seems to be his rarest drop from what I've read here so I guess that we were, very, very, very lucky that wonderful day!

Dreglande, 56 war of Celestial Rising, Xev.


**EDIT**
We went there again with the same people today. Shammy was level 65 with more aa's and all spells this time and I was close to ding 58, warrior had more AA's and elemental armor pieces, so we decided to take a trip to Veksar again to see our favourite undead pal Remains of Sythrax.
Our friend wasn't home though, we knocked on his door and his butler A(rnold )Revenant told us that we were on privite property and punched me in my face. So now we got pretty angry and killed him and everyone in sight, including the butler (A. Revenant). We were lucky again, because RoS came home early today, we only had to kill one PH, like the last time.
Shammy almost died in the beginning of the fight, he slowed too early and slow was resisted and I had to use LoH. Rest of the fight was piece a cake and he dropped Kunzar Tu'Lal, which nobody needed so we are trying to sell it. Warrior had to leave to go to raid but me and the shammy went around a bit in Veksar, killing all PH's we could see. After we did that, I checked if Remains of Sythrax was back. And he was!!!

"No way that we can take him without the warrior," we thought.

And we were probably right but we were to coward to try it. Shammy botted his 65 warrior alt(not as powerful as the warrior we had earlier though) we buffed up and started to kill.
And after many minutes of fighting, RoS decided to die and give us loot. The fight took longer time than with the other warrior though.
We got another Hooked So'Shar which went to the shammy's warrior.
I wonder if RoS always spawn 60% of the time instead of PH, or are we just very very lucky all the time?
I hope I get a Ritual Talisman of Fate next time we go there. =)

How often does he spawn for you when you kill the PH?

Maybe the warrior didn't get hit for over 400 because defensive disc was up?

Just a thought.
RE: Easy kill
# Sep 14 2003 at 9:55 AM Rating: Default
You are correct, but even AFTER the disc wore off, he still didn't get hit hard. So it looks like RoS has a pretty low soft AC cap.
RE: Easy kill
# Aug 28 2003 at 1:31 PM Rating: Default
ya we took him last night with 65 shammy, 63 chanter, 65 ranger, 56 monk, 48 monk, 56 war easy as pie. Not too tough. Hit this poor monkey for 782 a couple times though with 1150 ac. Only dropped his crappy sword though :(

drops
# Jul 28 2003 at 4:02 AM Rating: Decent
his drops seem totally random.

I've seen 2x neckpieces
3x Kunzar Tulal
1x Hooked Shosar(why I was there)
1x Tunak Parryblade


Spawn is also random. Seen him not pop for 6 straight hours, seen him 3x in 90 mins..

Just got another Hooked So` Shar tonight making that two outta the last 10 times or so roughly. The only drops we have not seen from him are the Parryblade and the Bracer. He is a warrior mob quads for 700ish, so make sure you have a slower or its not gonna be pretty.. Happy hunting :)

Loc Please
# Jul 21 2003 at 2:13 AM Rating: Decent
Can someone please tell me what the location is for remains and who the PH is ?? If not map coordinates just give me an idea of how to get there from the drop down into the highborn area.

Thanks
Hooked Sho Shar
# Jul 13 2003 at 2:47 PM Rating: Decent
I have camped the remains off and on for about a week and haven't seen the Hooked Sho Shar drop in that period. We had numerous neck,2 HS,and 1 HS (parry blade and other one ) drop but no Sho Shar. Anyone else have the Sho Shar drop for them other than the post below? Just curious. I love Veksar and think it's a great alternative for peeps without POP high end zones and for those that are burned out with POP hunting it's a great change of pace.
His drops
# Jul 02 2003 at 10:14 AM Rating: Decent
Seems to pop 1 in 6 times roughly. Out of our 11 kills, we have received

5 Double Edged Gan Noks
2 Kylong Darkmail Bracers
2 Kunzar Tu'lal
1 Ritual Talisman of fate
1 Tuk'Nak Parry blade

and NO FRIGGIN HOOKED SO'SHAR!

Can you guess what I am waiting on?

LOL. I think I'll be able to afford a blade of carnage from selling his drops before I actually get my sowrd to drop. Hope this helps.

Me as a cleric with 1200 AC and 4000 hp, his max hit on me was doubles of 722, i noticed he likes to spawn at bad times. we took him out (65 SK 56 cleric 60 BST (slower) and a 65 mage). hes nothing like most mobs, once slowed. I suspect hes a random spawn with PH, as he spawned twice in 15 minutes for us.
RE: hits
# Jun 25 2003 at 6:48 PM Rating: Decent
hits for 700 seems about right...he's on a standard ph cycle(meaning he or ph spawns every 15 or so mins, with random chance of being ph or him) like most of the other named in zone...ph is 'a revenant' (lev 55-57 or so)

go upstairs from shop and out window
hang a left and you'll see 3 highborns on left around a pole and stairs up to a building on right. go up stairs on right and clear the first 2 mobs in the entrance and the mob on the right guarding the stairs.

when you are ready go up the stairs on the right again and fight the single mob in the entrance room upstairs. basically heres a layout
{x}xxx{I}
xxx{e}xxx
{x}|x|{R}
xxx|x|xxx

I being iksar highborn; R being remains spawn; e being entrance room. You'll want to camp in R as i've NEVER seen him spawn in about 50 ph's without actually camping in his room. Prolly just bad luck but I'd say it couldn't hurt to try. It's also possible that him spawning has something to do with the 4 nobles outside running around the pole; but its too hard to say.

RE: area
# Jul 11 2003 at 4:32 PM Rating: Decent
Camped the entrance(the big doorway thing) to the 'entrance room' and he spawned, so don't have to be in his room...highborn also spawned on the same cycle as remains. I figured it was a coincidence, but I think we did take out the Insane nobles(there were 2 a nobles and 2 an insane nobles running around the pole<room across from where remains spawn> at the time) just before he spawned.
RE: area
# Jul 16 2003 at 12:16 AM Rating: Decent
Camped his room, he spawned twice in a row, didn't touch the nobles running in the circle once while we were there.

Yeah that's me in the spotlight...and the bracer that dropped is what I replaced my Hate bracer with. Probably has one of the highest AC's of anything I have on atm...spawns in a section with a bunch of Highborn nobles etc...hits almost like a Teir 1 mob.
RE: Famous Bear
# Jun 20 2003 at 2:54 AM Rating: Good
Might want to quantify that Vrem =?P

This guy hits for a max of 782, can double, is slowable, and enrages at 10%. Wasn't too bad tanking him once shammy slow landed.

BTW that's my warder, Shobby.
