Zazamoukh  

So, I am in the Nexus, getting KEI when a guildie hails me. Her being a 50 cleric, myself a 50 Druid (recent ding...) She asks for some buffs, because she is on her way to Rathe. I ask, pp hunting? No, the reply. She is going after her corpse, after losing a fight with a griffon. A griffon? Well, I told her that I would help her out, and we both buff each other with HP/resists and head on over to Feerrott, then zone into Rathe.

I load ICE (612DD), Terrorize Animal (its a griffon, right?), Drifting Death (DoT), Expulse Summoned (or whatever the lvl 44 DD vs. summoned spell 585DD), Circle of Feerrott (in case of trouble), Greater Healing, Ensnare and Engulfing Roots.

She roots the main, I nuke the pet. Pet is down to 10percent health. I nuke it the rest of the way down. Main baddie breaks nuke and heads over to cleric. I start with Drifting Death, and then try to root mob so cleric can back off. 1 resist, and 1 stuck. Only lasted about 10 seconds, but I throw a heal on the cleric. Then, I nuke it with ICE. Bad news? Only moves the HP bar down a small portion on the mob. Then, when I SHOULD have feared it, it fears me. I lose control and run away. When that breaks I head back, only to run smack dab into an Entrance spell. Man, does THAT last for awhile. Fear was about 10 seconds in duration, the Entrance felt like it was a minute. Cleric was going down pretty fast, because she kept getting stunned by the mob.

Needless to say, when my Entrance breaks, I see the mob heading back to where it came from. The cleric was still alive, and so was I. I was down to half health and 30mana (even had KEI and 230wis, resists near low 90s, but didn't seem to help greatly...)

First time I ever saw a mob walk away from 2 guaranteed kills. Was getting ready for a corpse run that night...

"The two Sphinx from Leinad's quest" was the title, when clicked upon i saw the picture of zazamoukh and Ankhefenmut, but nothing more. If you ever hear bout Leinad, please post it.

Astaronia, wizzy on AB.

Ever heard of the famous egyptian Silent sphynx?

Their mytology is very similar to this, and it took a hell of a nut to crack the sphynx in the myth.

Maybe the godly Verant expects something like this from us, who knows. /shrug

Lol... Maybe you can talk to them in some different language... Just a thought /shrug

Doesn't it look like an erudite, the head?

I'm running around Rathe kicking some giant but, just like everyone else, needless to say. Just like everyone else though, I havent checked out the entire zone, cuz lets face it, when u go to Rathe, ur not there to explore, u go in, get cash and leave. Anyway, I got a little side-tracked after fear kiting a giant and was in the drake/sphinx valley, thinking that i'm in the giant valley. After seeing a drake or 2, i realize that i'm in the wrong section and head back to the HG valley. On my way back, i see some wings flapping just outside of the entrance, assuming it was another idiot drake, i go straight for it to give it a good monkie beating. When i get there I see a druid scurrying away and some egyptian god-like creature chasing it straight towards an HG group after the halfling and slapping everyone on it's way there. I figure it's none of my business and make a break for the zone, but then realized that was my friend's group and went to help. Anyway, the guy cons blue to me at level 45 and I have a fresh sow, so i give it a try. The group and I get the fool down to half life, when he turns on me and does a gravity-flux on everyone (it hit me for 300 points with Safe Fall at 180+,.. EEEK!!), I resisted the summoning 2 times, the third time i wasnt so lucky, but it didnt last long. But, not everyone did. To make a long story short, I kited the guy to the Lake Rathe zone to allow ppl to zone or log. I got out with half a red bubb of health, but i didnt go back into Rathe that day, so i dont know if he was killed.
