I'm embarrassed to say that I was heading for an epic 1.5 turnin to Athele and this little guy came out of nowwhere wacking on me. Killed me pretty quick as well! Going back for him shortly! Buffed and ready to go! I think he may need a debuff as he might partially heal at least once. He seems to have a lot of hp too. Green to me at 72.
- 5 / 31/ 07 - 11 am est, Soloed him with my 71 war, have about 2100 AC 10k hp . Most hits were for 100-150, sometimes got upto 300 on a hit, Used a HoT potion, and my discs, went down w/ no problems. Spawns in SE corner near fishing camp. Pulled him out with no problems, and began my beatdown.
Ran in to this little basket today whilst farming silk and cat pelts. Conned db to me at 55. Hit me 4 times all for 500+. All my pet could do was look-on. I'm coming back for him with a posse!!

So here I was making the long trek to Highhold Keep with my twinked out 15 warrior with temp on him. Went through the trouble to avoid griffons/griffawns and all, a werewolf or two, and I think I even ran past an HG on the way to EK. Got there and got a little lost cause the map wasn't showing where Highhold was, came here for reference and had ended up by the barbarian fishing area. Started walking over to the adjacent farm, and was standing there getting my bearings on where to go, when this bastard hits me 3 times for about 1200 dmg total. Next think I know I get hit for another 500+ dmg and I'm still trying to figure out what the hell hit me. Little bastard.....decided it wasn't worth trying to navigate all the way back just to go to Highhold. But ONE day, this f***er will die slow...
Was helping a 52 ranger with his turn in for epic (68 bsty fully buffed), when this gnome jumped him. I jumped in and got agro from ranger, then DoT'd and slowed him. Got me down to 50% before I used a HoT potion and re-DoTed him. Highest hit on me was 360 and dropped him in about 1 min with warder and I meleeing him and ranger using bow. After reading all the post here am wondering if we got a lower version of him (conned DB to me). Looted blade and continued ranger epic for guildie.
Just Duoed him with Warrior/Druid (Warrior is me and i alrdy have 1.5 didnt know he was for it and he agroed so i killed) Hes a puss just make sure u got some heals
None of my druid friends have ever seen this guy nor heard of him. Druid Epic walkthru's do not mention him. Only SONY is sick enuf to put a Warior Epic 2.0 mob pathing past the Druid Epic Giver. How many times do we have to visit Athele? I could not root him nor outrun him. 3 whacks. Dead. Very funny, SONY. Visit during the day is safe? Does he see invis?
hmmmmm....I wonder if this is the "Sony Warrior Guild's" way of getting even with the druids that are farming the Warrior 1.0 epic pieces so that we HAVE to do the walk through for 1.5 :)
I was buffed with conv and wunshi, plus my own clickable buffs and tributes, 11642hp. First i invised myself and put on his back, kicked for stun and attacked. I used Savage Onslaugh discipline nice for CB without low health, then i used Mighty Strike discipline when i got to 50% and he hited me so i became berserker at 40% ... more CBs so nice dps btw... used Potion Elixir of Healing X. Then i used my Furious Discipline (ripostes) got him to 10% me also at 10% and killed him with a final slash (another Crippling Blow luckly), i was at 10% hp and looted the blade. Easy fight to me =)
I also solo'd him. Used same stratgey and ended fight with 30% health and tiem still left on my Furious Disc. Total fight was probably 40-50secs long. I had Conviction, 50% haste potion, and clicky buffs, was just under 11k hp and 1900 AC. Had Signal Fire Scepter equipped and was landing crippling blows up to 1140's. Highest hit I took was for 631. Was a fun kill. Only part of skip quest I didn't solo was The Diaku Overseer. (and I lucked out on that fight. I went in rogue shroud to check to see if Overseer was up and ran into a group that just killed him. They were nice enough to let me loot the weapon plans...thanks Evolutia!!)
As already noted, he spawns near the fishing village in the southeast corner of East Karana. I had wandered over that way with my level 70 shaman (Time Geared). Luckily I had dots and root mem'd and Conviction up.
Out of nowhere this nasty little gnome dashed up and began being unfriendly. Dark blue to me at level 70. He's slowable with Turgur's though a tad resistant. He's also rootable, Yay! He does summon and punches fast until slowed.
He had me to 75% before a slow landed and, with his summonings, he had me at 51% before I could back off with him rooted and dotted and get a Serenity on myself. Took slow, root a few times, three dots including Pox of Bertox, Breath of Wunshi and Ancient Scourge of Nife, each cast twice, puppy chomping on him, me smacking him and a Pet Swarm to finally lay him down.
was doing spell quest for ranger and he jumped us.
we where a group of 50s. it conned DB yes well...... we took him down to about 97%, we barely touched him lol and we where mostly all down to 20%, thank god for wiz in group!!!!!!!!
SOE has a sick sense of humor to put such uber mobs that AGGRO in NEWBIE places.
He wasn't so bad actually. Soloed him as a 70 warrior, almost 300 AAs, some Time and Qvic gear. Slowed him with truncheon of Doom while Furious, then Stonewalled and meleed him to death. Didn't hit too hard and barely took me down to half. I don't know if he spawns at different levels though; I may have gotten the weakest version.
I've been leveling my young 22 V.S. BST here lately. I've gotten into the habit of running to the fishing village to sell what I loot, and kept seeing this guy pathing back and forth along the trail. He seems to spawn in the South Eastern corner area and then path along the trail that runs toward the hill with the gnolls (parallel to the river).
In 4 RL days of playing (many, many Norathian days) I have never seen him during the daytime, only at night.
I was actually going to go and hail him thinking he might be a quest/Task related NPC. Good thing I /conned him first! Blood Red and Ready to attack. No clue about how big his agroe radius is, but he was just a little outside my spell range. (22 BST - no extended range focus items)
Met him while gathering some spider silks for tailor skillups.
High hit appears correct at 658. Didn't use any special attacks (bash etc) but had haste. Does summon. Slightly shy of basic SoW runspeed. HP are closer to 10k than 20k.
Now my question is, why would they add a 55 KOS to all NPC in such close proximity to a place 20s will be hunting?

Just a note, as of today (April 2nd, 2005) this guy does summon. Took out a 62 Necro and Druid with little to no problem. I (62 necro) had him dotted with 6 dots and he still did me in. Only had him to 75% and he kept summoning me. Next time I will have FD up first. :)
I met this little guy today, with my 55 ranger. Didn't see where he came from. But he hit me 3 times, 256, 580, 658, I just ran. He never summoned me, but I didnt attack him. Glad he didn't summon, prolly wouldn't have survived another flurry.
The person who said he DOES NOT summon is absolutely incorrect. I'm not sure if it was ever changed, but as of today(2/23/09) he does summon. Green to me at 72. I was kiting the paladin for my necro 1.5 and he aggroed. Summoned me a couple times and was quite a nuisance. Had to FD and will just kill him first next time.
50 druid, 63 cleric, beastlord and 2 other peeps (Conned LB to 66 :P) didn't get their levels/classes. Apparently they found this guy while goofing around and killed him, asked if anyone needed the war epic piece and I jumped on it.
Next day, killed him again for another war's epic. 67 warrior, 70 beast, 65 ranger, burned him down in about 45 seconds. Warrior didn't even need a heal. Think he said the max it hit him was 300.
Lol: Well 3 of us a 67 Necro 61 Ranger and 59 Druid go to do Druid turn in for Druids Epic 1.
Next thing I hear is Druid going WTF!!!! and running around us in circles. He dies and Nerco and myself kill it. Happy Necro had Agro as she keep herself healed by LT the sucker, ran Trueshot of on him after slowing him with Earthcaller.
Pain, for 55 he seems more like a 65. But luckly it is straight melee.
Happly Necro Rezed Druid and we finished his turn ins.
50 Ranger here, was told i could single group this, needless to say my group was 64 druid, 64 Warrior, 56 paladin, another druid, a wizzy, and Mage, we turned it into a raid (7 members). Stationed the group at DEF corruptor spawn point, found Althete, did the turn in, as i'm following her, i notice that i'm at 50% and droping, i wheel back to see this little prick punting me in the ankle, so i start running around like i'm gonna lose him in a tree, 6 hits "LOADING, PLEASE WAIT". What is a Warrior epic kill doing near the ranger turn in, it KOS's everything.
Now i since the druids weren't on my Track, i was told to destroy the braided amulet, and start over, NOW TELIN DARKFOREST won't even talk to me to start the first parts of my epic. Sending a petition to the GM's is a waste of my time, get the same answer back, "Ask yer fellow players"
So what is a now lvl 51 Pathfinder (ranger) to do.
Was doing the ranger epic for a 55 ranger in my guild. She ran across this guy, so our druid goes to see if he could kite him off her. They both died. Being a curious mage, I went to see what the commotion was about. Solo'd this guy down to 76% hp before I decided to gate out. Pet was at 20%, and being hit faster than I could heal.
Ranger had to resart her epic, which fortunately didn't take long.
This lovely MOFO aggro'd and wiped most of my group trying to kill the epic 1.0 mob for ranger/druid epic. Needless to say I have to start epic over, totally. Not amused.
Maybe this part of ranger/druid epic needs to be upgraded from single group to raid to be able to handle the add :-P.
I was wandering around EK...farming some silks and the like. I see this gnome...think "hey I should con him"...Next thing I knew I was being attacked. I did not have a chance to run because he hit so fast. He took my lvl 65 wizard out like nothing. (unbuffed..)
I grab a rez from a guildie pally, then he logs on his Mage, we get a Beastlord (both 66) and a 65 ranger. The four of us took him out with only the rager getting hit for about 40 pct when the booger summoned her.
I was not really paying attention to spawn time, but it did seem when I lead my friends to his area, we had to look for him. Then suddenly he was there. (I was picking up the ranger to track him when the mage the gnome.)
So...he can be taken out with less than a full grp of 65+ (pre EP gear), he prolly is a night spawn, oh and he seems to be highly magic resistant, but fire sticks nicely.
yea, i just did my turn in for epic 1.5 when i saw this guy standing near me. i was like uh..i wonder if he is kos, when i conned him he attacked me so i was like, hell no you didnt and i snared him and shot him with my bow. after a few shots he summoned me. i was like wow, didnt expect that he hit me for like 200, i was like hmm not too hard but i cant really tank it being a gar and all =P, i'll just let it regen and walk away, yea come to find out he hits for a little more than 200.......try...658. so i was like wow, sh*t i'd better run, and he kept summoning me, i popped ws hoping he'd gain enough hp to stop summoning..i was at around 20% i started healing...and then it was down and i tried to run and i died, next time i'd better just run =P hope any of this helps. ichooseyou 65 ranger drinal

...while I was adding to my map. Hit me 3 times (#1 for 350+, #2 for 650+, #3 for 650+) and I was back at my bind point. Con'ed white to me at 55 (I was 56 until he jumped me).
I had just finished a turn-in for my epic, 55 ranger, and I see this little fellow just north of the druids. Conned white and was kos to me. I ran past him without a thought. Only when I looked behind me and seen him chasing me did I think to myself, oh, the little guys wants a piece. I snared, rooted, DoTed, clicked on trueshot, and fired away. A few arrows later I am walloped for around 300. Hmm.. guess he is helping himself to a bunch of pieces. With SoW I was able to outrun his summon range easily. I am glad I snared him first otherwise this might not have been the case. Just wish I had gotten a picture.
Now for the useful part of this post, it happened around 3am gametime. So, woggie is probably right about him spawning at night.
Ok, here's a hint for everyone. I've been in EK for the last two weeks on and off, it seems he crawls out of the wood work only at night. I was a 26 rngr and I was out doing the ole farming silks when I got ran out of mana I decided to do a little fishing like I always have, so I run over to the water and b4 I get there, the infamous "returning to homeport" comes up. I think he killed me just by looking my way. So, now while I'm farming I always look for him on track, but only see him at night. Now at night if I want to fish I run towards the NK border and fish that water. :)

4 level 66's came across him unexpectedly during help on a druid 1.0 epic. This IS a little pain in the arse. Tons of hit points and hits a 66 tank for up to 500. Didn't have a cleric with us and Druid wasn't ready to heal at the time so we succored out. Since he's a warrior epic 2.0 mob I'll have to come back with a full group to kill him later.

First encountered this lil pain in the ass when while farming silk i got the loading screen of death.Aglitch while summoning my body kept me in the zone for a couple of hours while waiting to here back from a GM.2 65+ lvl players showed up to look for him but he was nowhere to be found.I offered out of boredom to keep an eye out and give em a shout when he popped. He Spawns near the fishing village at the base of the southwest side of mountain.Seems to be on a cycle of 30 minutes til he Despawns and 45 til he spawns again. The only safe place to observe him was along the shore line as he has a SICK agro range.He wanders back and forth in an east to west fasion in that corner of the zone.I never saw him stray from that area but his pathing was primarily back and forth.Also seems to run at SoW speed or faster.Even at the range of barely being visible, he still agroed to me while watching him.Hope this info is of some help....i personally can't wait til i'm a higher lvl (i was a 26 druid at the time..)to exact a little payback on him for the 2 days of petition hell he caused me....Happy hunting!
lvl 30 dru out farming silk and out of nowhere I take a couple of hits for 358 so I just book it, ran past gaurds they were no help. Still don't know what this freak looks like, just what my poor dead corpse looks like.
This gnome agroed a 56 Beastlord I was farming silks with and he conned dark blue to her. Phaedruse(53) said it was yellow to them. Suggesting he is 54 or 55, which is a fairly misleading undercon as he's of PoP Tier 3 difficulty. Not safely kitable because of the silly summons.

Was doing some exploring in EK last night. His agro range is huge. He ran through my lvl 24 toon with out even stopping to swing. Now I have to find someone for a CR or else get wacked again. :(
