agreed a lvl 16 barb shaman can only JUST kill one of these with full mana and root and etc etc etc
they con way lower than they are...and they hit very hard even when wearing a full set of shammie buffs (9 buffs in total) - it still hit for over 45 - 50 dmg, couple with the mud in yer eye - it makes it a dangerous mob at low lvl without some kinda backup
A lot of people don't bother to look at the loot these guys have, because it is usually clay or pieces of ore. But they do occassionally have bars of metal, like platinum and sliver!
