Yar`Lir the Living Storm  

Raid Encounter
Screenshot

Uploaded July 24th, 2007

The doors to Yar'Lir's lair seal shut when Yar'Lir hits 95% health.

  • Maximum hit: 4.7k
  • Average hit: 582 dps
  • HP Estimate: 4.4 million
  • AE Rampages: Yes
  • Perm Rooted.
  • Mob sees through invisibility: Yes
  • Sees through Shroud of Stealth: No

Other forms include Yar`Lir the Hurricane`s Eye, Yar`Lir the Mistress of Winds, and Yar`Lir the Matriarch. Whichever form she is killed in will spawn the chest with loot.

Spawns Adds:

In hurricane form, an unstable storm spawn in the perimeter of the room. They cast "Force Quake", a strong hp/mana DoT -- avoid them.

In matriarch form, spawns many of a blizzard seeker. These cannot be avoided.

After she's killed, a chest spawns with additional loot.

Quick Stats - In Era

In era stats - Tanked by Anguish geared warrior.

4,400,000 HP
4,750 Max Hit
Averaged 582 dps on tank
Averaged about 300 dps over 144 seconds through AoE's to every player in raid, mostly anguish geared (obviously this varies a lot from player to player depending on resists)

If you've got the dps, just pile under her and burn her down. Pretty easy fight as long as you have the healing to deal with the AE's. Using Infusion of the Faithful here can help significantly if you don't have resists for it.

If you're using one or a few big toons to kill her for DoN progression there are a few things you can do. I haven't' tried all of these, but they all should work. The Advanced Loot method has been verified by myself. It's important to note that Yar'Lir's eyeball and the progression item are on Yar'Lir herself. Gear and such is in a chest which spawns near her corpse when she dies.

-You can park your guys outside the door and go in with your big toon and kill her. Advanced Loot will allow you to get the the progression/chest items even outside the room as long as you're grouped/raid.

-If your character is logged out when the kill happens you won't be able to do this. However, before the fight starts you can sneak in the door, and camp out. Best to be shrunk. Remember the door locks at 95% oh Yar'Lir. You can then manual loot her after the fact if everything is left on the corpse by main looter.

-If an outside person wants the loot from the chest, just make sure they are logged in, and in the group/raid before you open the chest, and again, Advance Loot will allow you to loot.

-Another option for a person needing to be logged out during the kill for whatever reason. You can duel another player, die,and corpse drag into the room, even through the wall. There are multiple ways you can do this. Before or after the fight. Thought I haven't tried this, a person in the room could gate, run back to the instances, duel/kill player, then someone inside could drag body.

-Another posts mentioned that you can squeeze through the door with shrink+mount, I haven't tested this so I cannot verify. Nor have I tried CoH, but I'm sure that will work.

Getting locked out happened to my boxed char when doing Dragon, Dragon, Dragon.
Solution (as described below): Use a mount, get shinked (I needed it, might depend on char) and ride through the gab between the doors.

Completed DoN 4 progression tonight with a 6 box. 85 monk/cleric/shaman/rogue/warrior/bard. Characters are all around 30-35k hp buffed.

1. Goblin dojo was easy, most of the time was spent waiting for the next wave. Listlessness + erud's retort kept toons at 100% through entire fight.

2. Sand guardian was more annoying. His gflux still hit my toons with max resists + bard song. Still had adds. After he died monk whirlwind + Destructive force killed adds in 10 seconds. Listlessness + erud's worked fine on this event too. One or two heals were needed.

3. Yar'lir was a bit more difficult. Her gflux still messed up the positioning of my toons and it was very annoying. Fight took about 20 minutes with /autoattack and no specials. Most of my time was spent repositioning toons and healing every now and then with cleric. Her DPS was very low. Rarely I had to off tank blizzards with my monk and they were very easy to kill.

Completed all 3 events in about an hour and a half once I got started.
Fun Fun

Was bored so me and a buddy decided to go kill Yar Lir.

Friend played 85 SK, i played my 85 War and boxed my 85 shammy, took us 25 minutes and was a fun fight.
Easy fight
# Jun 23 2009 at 9:50 AM Rating: Decent
Just took her down as an 85 sk with my 85 beast bot. Tier 3ish geared 85 druid was only healer and had my 85 warrior brother along with his 80 necro bot.

Fight took 31 minutes and Yar parsed as having about 5.5 million hp.

I tanked on Sk and AE aggroed the adds.

I kept paragon on the druid and my SK and it was an easy fight.

I suggest putting one highly aa'd melee dps on the adds rather than dps through them simply for the exp. Killing the adds as a group of 5 was very simple and resulted in 2 aa over the 31 minutes it took to kill her. There was no issue in killing the adds, they are very low hp. I kept aggro on adds using AE's with SK and simply dpsed them down one at a time with melee and pet (no nukes, saved those for yar when they would land)on my beast with no help.

I used the best pet proc slow and even unslowed Yar's dps was minimal.

I probably could have self healed through the whole thing but boxing as MT and trying to dps adds and keep SK paragoned would have been difficult and I didn't feel like slipping up, catching a bad round and leaving the beast to pet tank >.<

Having tier 4 progression done makes me happy >.<

GL to those of you who try this, it's super easy now and the clicky ds is on my list.

Easy 1 group

Ranger, bst, cleric, bard, wizard and a shammy bot, Ranger tanked just dps'd yar thru the adds, shammy just slowed and chain cougar'd took about 16mins, most in Solt gear Bot's Alts a bit less gear, max hit was 3k range, Fun encounter still, wru avoidance aug )
yar'lir fight
# Aug 31 2008 at 9:05 PM Rating: Decent
We killed Yar'lir tonight with a mini raid. Raid was SK, SK's cleric box, druid, necro, rogue, zerker, chanter and chanter's cleric box. Most of the toons were mix of TSS/Solteris/Crystallos group geared, 1500-2500 AA's.

The fight lasted a long time, but was not too bad, and I believe with the right group and high DPS, this fight could be one grouped.
Kilt w/17.

6 RL peeps + an army of bots took down Yar tonight w/1 warrior, 4 cleric and no shammy (chantie powa!).

Lots of strong melee DPS. Long fight. Zerk-bot's Warcry refreshed at 30% or so... definitely well over 35minute fight. Mains = TSS geared. Bots = Mixed, mostly CoA+.

Warrior dropped at 6%, Rotated thru Riposte discs + Ranja WS. Pally took over as MT, from 4% to death. Exciting fight! :)

The notes indicate these are cast by the unstable storms instead.
Is knockback new on YarLir?
# May 31 2007 at 7:59 AM Rating: Decent
I didn't see any mention of it here, but this mob has a nasty knockback component in it's AOEs that may be unresistable. With All resists maxed out at 625, most of the damage from AOEs was resisted, but I was flying all over the place, even with levitate on.

Just a heads up if you get locked out of doors. You can get on a mount and run between them. I can't tell if you HAVE to be shrunk or not, bc we always shrink on raids, but I was shrunk, ran through middle crack while mounted.

Don't have to be shrunk.

I wouldn't consider riding a mount through an opening you can see and cast and use ranged items through an exploit.

How hard does Yar'Lir hit? Slowable? rampages? flurry? infuriates?

Thanks ahead of time.
RE: curious

Slowable and Rampages. Didn't see a flurry and never took a full hit from him. 495 was the highest hit other than spells.
What I've seen...
# Dec 21 2005 at 12:13 AM Rating: Decent
The person stating adds at 15%, wrong, adds have spawned for us, each attempt, at 70%...

The door opens at various times of the fight, but we haven't figured out if that's a good thing or not.

There's some "safer" areas, some people report that hanging around in front of the ponds was safe. Others stated that under the porches was good, and still others report that standing against the door is pretty safe.

One thing that all seem to agree on is to NOT stay in front of her face.

So far we have been unsuccessfull with this mob, our best progress has been 32%.

When the mobs do spawn, I checked track and there was 5 at the time I checked it. I was too busy doing other things to keep checking it. Though someone reported that once Yar'lir changes forms her adds die.

Anyone know if standing outside after the event starts is a workable strategy?

Whe she dies she dies as Yar`Lir the Living Storm and the chest that drops loot is A Chest On her body is her eye and fangs the other loot comes from the chest.

Actually that is incorrect... when she dies she does it in whatever form she's in at that moment, there's no form bound to her HP%.

[Sun Jun 12 19:27:33 2005] Yar`Lir the Matriarch has been slain by Adora!

PS: The loot thing is correct, but since the chest *always* spawns on top of her, I wouldn't advise the admins to make a separate post for it - would create more confusion than it helps :p

Re: info on different forms:

Yar Lir changes into all these different forms during the fight, so there is no need for separate listings, and there is only one loot table.

Im sorry i know this post is about a year old but ive killed Yar`lir enough times to know that this does not drop off of her. There is not even a single item close to those stats in this game as of 2006. High End PoR will be lucky to even see anything that gives 400+ stats.

Not to mention that if the mana is 845 and the HP is 845, then the endurance HAS to be 845 because of the way it is coded.

Finding your own strats for events makes it a lot more fun once you first beat them, mt guild just killed Yar'lir for the first time on our second attempt, wiped once today and then rezzed and killed her! Anyways I for one think it is better to come up with own strats instead of going off of the other guilds, yes i have asked about trying to find strats for certain mobs but always get the same answer =)

It's curious that this guy posts such a stupid statement on a sight dedicated to giving out everquest information. He was probably here to look up strat he could pass off as his own.
RE: STRATS
# Aug 05 2005 at 9:50 AM Rating: Decent
because you will save about 50 other peoples precious times when you can just copy someone elses strats, who copied someone else as well?

this is a spoiler site and i find it hilarious when people recommend coming up with their own strats when they just copied someone else, who copied someone else. rarely any guild just goes up to a mob for the first time knowing absolutely nothing, unless you were that first guild who figured it out.

# Jun 01 2005 at 5:15 PM Rating: Good
From what i remember from the yar'lir fight she did not have any 600 magic dd ae, i think that spell is wrong. I remember her using several different dd aes againist the raid depending on what her name had changed to. Maybe the person who added that ae meant The cone of storms?

Was not my list, I just noticed that Forcequake is definitely wrong and pointed that out while disregarding the other AE - but Korasak is correct. According to my Logs she uses the following spells herself:
Icicle Blizzard
Wing Buffet
Wind Shear
Yar'Lir's Cone of Storms
