Rogue Epic changes:
- Eldreth will now return after leaving for 1 hour rather than 8. He can no longer be killed by miscreants.
- Founy Jestands and Tani N'Mar will no longer have any parchment on their corpses if killed. They will, however, always have them in their pockets if someone happens to be clever enough to take them.
- Renux Herkanor will no longer carry a Jagged Diamond Dagger.
- General V'ghera will no longer carry a Cazic Quill.
- Karg IceBear will be a bit easier to find and will be carrying the Gigantic Zweihander more often.

Okay so I read Iewacker's post stating "I was so embarrassed. With a healer alone, I could have taken her."

Well, I spawned her in Steamfont via Yendar and brought my girlfriend, a 65 Pally along and thought, this should be easy. Well, Renux was dark blue to my 55 Rogue, lightblue to my girl and, get this, she whoooped us but good. Had to kite her around b/c was afraid she would despawn. Girlfriend zoned out to pok and came back in.

I logged on my 69 monk wih 77 AAs, fired up my Aura, downed a DS potion, clicked on my innerflame disc and went to town on this girl. She was seriously hurting my 69 monk who is decently outfitted with cultural armor, i.e. the 95k elaborate sagacious cuirass et al with DoN augs all over. I downed a Celestial Healing potion and I was still dropping fast.

A nice druid who had responded to my earlier call for help tossed in heals and my 69 monk prevailed but it was by no means an easy fight for just my monk, he was going down fast and had their not been a healer there I'm not sure that I would have won.

She conned GREEN to my 69 monk.

She is a SERIOUS undercon.

You have been warned.

You're better off kiting her.

Good luck.


Updated, thanks.

Renux's Steamfont Level

Renux is not 61st level. I'm a 53rd level rog and just spawned her less then 10 min ago. She was a Dark Blue con to me. Had some friends there that were 70ish level to help out with the fight. When she spawned, my jaw dropped and my face went red with embarrassment. With a healer alone, I could have taken her. Please correct the Level part of this. Renux is between 50th - 52nd level.

WK Renux Spawn Timer
# May 29 2007 at 10:55 AM Rating: Decent
Seen her spawn at 6-8 pm game time twice. Don't think i've seen her during the day. Also the vendor/quester next to her seems to vanish at 8pm and returns with all his purchased items cleaned out only to be selling his base items.

She wouln't give the quest to me until I got my 300 skill and warmly faction. I've been killing bandits and turning 5 gold pcs to Guard Shilster in between spawn times to raise faction.

Shilster spawns in the extreme NE corner at approximately + 1499, - 2736 in North Karana. http://eqbeastiary.allakhazam.com/search.shtml?id=6658

[edit]
To get from kindly to warmly I killed all the bandits in N and W Karana about 5 times and turned in 400 gold pcs in stacks of 5 . It's tedious and mundane but did the job. I don't know when I got warmly since a time or two I went to check and she wasn't there so I headed out to do it all again.

I read in the GMAS post that if you wander the area by the hut there's a spawn trigger for her. When I went to finished the GMAS quest I was coming from the NKarana area and aproached between the left barn and left side of hut at 6am game time. I was suprised to see her there. If this rumor/fantasy is true perhaps I ran over the trigger.

More info on her and the quest:

this is not the same Renux that spawns after Yendar in Steamfont for the Rogue epic Ragebringer. even though on the epic page it has this one listed under related npcs. for the correct Renux for the epic piece look under the item Jagged Diamond Dagger.

Took her down today on 7th Hammer for rogue epic in Steamfont Mtns. DB to a level 51 rogue. Had 10 people, no cleric or shammy, highest level was lvl 68 necro, 67 sk, most others were in low 60's and 50's. No sweat. MT had 78% hp left after fight and only took about 30 seconds.

Is the Renux in WK for GM Assassin's Seal still spawning? Wondering if there is anything I'm missing?

Renux (The WK version)

For those Rogues working on the GM Assassin's Seal, Renux definitely does still spawn as of this posting date in West Karana in the same hut as Gindlin Toxfodder (loc: neg2990, neg13400). The WK version of Renux is the questgiver - NOT the Renux located in the NthQeynos Rogue Guild who will not give you the quest regardless of faction.

Renux in Steamfont
# Sep 22 2004 at 1:44 PM Rating: Decent
Working on the Guise of the Coercer quest, and as far as the Renux in Steamfont goes, pretty easy, straightforward kill. Tanked her with a 65 monk with some elemental gear and about 5500 hp unbuffed, 61 rogue, and 62 druid there to heal. Only needed to heal monk once, and the druid landed a Moonfire for full damage. She did not heal herself for 12% life as the epic walkthrough webpage said (Matt Wagnor's version), and ran at about 20% life.

Also, if Yendar is not up, the trick about talking to his brother in Ak'Anon seemed to work for me-he spawned upon zoning back out to Steamfont with the group.

As far as the Renux in Western Karana goes, the same group of 3 killed her for the heck of it. Needed to heal the monk about 4 or 5 times, but still a pretty easy fight even though that Renux hits much harder.

me and a 65 ranger smoked her with absurd ease. share landed on the 3rd or 4th time then it was bow action and backstabbin'.

Well guess what...she's been nerfed along with everything else in the game. She now is rooted in one spot...and she summons. She still hits for 100-200. I tried dots...resisted. Nukes...she laughed at me. Proceeded to summon my butt and kill me 2 times in a row. Why was my lil 58 druid taking her on? Because she's standing right next to the NPC I need to buy a morter from :-P location: -2989, -13,399

Harmony also doesn't work. Level 50....yea right.

Just an FYI. This is not the Rogue Epic NPC. This is the quest NPC for the Grandmaster Assassin's Seal and the Package quest. As such, she is not meant to be killed. The Renux for the Rogue Epic only spawns in Steamfont when triggered by a turn in. That Renux has not been changed.

hour long kite
# Mar 11 2004 at 1:45 AM Rating: Decent
after my group failed once and gave up I was desperate to do this I really didn't wanna start over so I log on my 53 druid and proceed to kite her using my epic and elder vambraces and my three spell dots. Longest kite i've ever done and stayed around 15% mana once she was around 50% hp. She has one hell of a regen on her but I was able to keep her at even, (no hp regened but none lost) using creeping crud and immolation. When I was finaly able to get all my dots on her,( she kept resisting dots and not just low lvl one but even my epic) she lost hp pretty fast but the dot's wore off fast. Well that is my adventure with her just thought I would share it.

Ok Ive killed Renux a number of times now and can attest that she is over the level 50 shes purported to be. I dont know alot of 65 rogues that can quad for 200 plus. She does con dark blue to me at 65 but easily drops even most tanks in heads up melee.

She can be duoed with a necro or other kiting class that can hold aggro and your epic hungry rogue. Prefer necro as the dots and snare will keep aggro locked up tight for a rogue to BS all dang day.

Pets are simply a waste of time now as she will attack them and kill them swiftly.

She is highly kitable if your tank drops and a rogue with sow or run3 can easily keep her entertained till help can arrive. I have personally kited her for 20 plus minutes while awaiting the arrival of a cleric after the tank dropped in a pally rogue duo attempt. (that doesnt work btw and you will need a cleric and most of his mana to get her down). She is highly resistant to most spells too but stuns land just fine.

Would highly recommend using a necro that can lead off with snare and hold aggro with dots. Then just go to town on her from behind.

After wiping to her with a well rounded force of 10 people ranging up to level 58, I logged on my level 55 druid to engage her while the raid reconstitued.

Easy as cake. Snared, dotted, and occassionaly rooted her. Was close to OOM, but the issue was never in doubt. All you need is a level 53+ druid. No tanks, mages, clerics. Just a druid with stacking DOTS.
Level info is incorrect
# Apr 19 2003 at 5:48 PM Rating: Decent
Maybe she's been updated, but she was RED to all 7 of us that took her down last night on Inny. Our group ranged from 53 to 55.
Maybe she has a level range but 50th level she was not.

Was a blast but I should've known it was going to be an interesting experience when the Shadowknight ( me ) was the snarer and they were actually sticking.

Faction?
# Apr 04 2003 at 10:52 PM Rating: Decent
The assumption seems to be that Renux is on Circle of Unseen Hands faction, can anyone confirm this?
Reason I ask, is I just got wiped by her when coming across her by accident. She dropped me in a single tick, hitting me 5 times in the one tick! Now I know my faction with the Circle is bad, but I was sure it wasn't this bad... Just wondering if there might be another faction she's on that I am KOS to?
RE: Faction?
# Jun 10 2003 at 11:46 AM Rating: Decent
She is on Circle of Unseen hands. I have done the rogue errands quest (part of it to raise circle faction) and went from apprehensive to ally with her on Circle of Unseen Hands faction.

You will need good faction (warmly at least) to do the grandmaster assassin's seal quest with her.

killed Renux last night with 1 bard kiting it. had a mage with to nuke when she got to 10% and I ran behind and backstabbed her. Also had a cleric on hand but never needed to use. Very easy to do with a bard who knows what they are doin. Bard was lvl 60, mage was 51, and I am 50 rogue.
