Rungupp  

as of today his location is -2393, 1168, 102. he is up the hillside to the west of the PoK book that is closest to Paineel ent. spawn timer is about 5 minutes.

Supposedly this guy is the easiest way to work up your guk faction for the Crown of Deceit quest. I'd just like to say he's on a 13 minute spawn timer, clocked it myself.

BAH....i killed him EASY with my level 5 monk....just attack him first and dont move alot....simple as pie

I've made it a personal goal to kill this bastard every time I'm in Toxxulia. Last night I got some troll parts off him, decided to make them into pickles and eat them. It made me happy for the rest of the day. Talk about job satisfaction!

i c it has faction to frogloks is the faction good or bad i hope good


***BTW the Lil dud mess's hard so kick his ***

I tracked this mofo down with my 30 druid and did a favor for muse and all Low level people everywhere.I smeared his ass with one combust.He dropped a troll head,lore no drop, and troll parts.

y does the eqatlas reviewer person say, "11. Grubbpug(however u spell it)(plz hill him)" jus wondering

Okay, I'm a newcomer to Odus, hailing from the WESTSIDE! of Faydwer =) I ported to the wizzy spires from Luclin and made my way (with a little help from True North) all the way to Erudin's patio without being attacked. I crossed the bridge, but no sign of the troll. The map on EQ Atlas says he's on the far left side on the shore by Kerra Isle but elsewhere it says he's on the bridge. Where did everyone see him? What's his loot? And, if you kill him, wouldn't you lose faction with trolls? Just a thought...

It aggroed on me from Paineel side of bridge. Blindness suckes but I just kept casting/piercing on it. Hopefully you target it or it auto targets when it hits you so you can do this when you are blind. May try typing in /target Rungupp as well. So at level 6, as a wizard, I barely soloed it. Went OOM and it got me to near death. Hope this clears some things up. Anhk 14 WIZ on Vazaelle

My level 5 enchantress killed him with a little help from her pet. :-) He kept casting blind but my animation pounded him and I cast suffocating sphere on him and finally he died and I didn't even loose too many HP.

took him out with my lvl 21 druid without a problem.Used careless lightning on him.

I have killed him at level 6 without a lot of difficulty !
I'm a magician, and, of course, I have send my pet at contact, keeping me away.
A lot of burn on his head, and he died, leaving me his head.
But the quest is not really interesting (a spell level 4, a little experience for his head), so, I suggest not to fight Rungupp.
He's too much dangerous, and not interesting.

i'm omw to stonebrunt. a 28 druid. if i see him i'll take his ass out :)

This is a creature that seems to be very easy or very hard depending on your class. Rungupp is NOT easy to kill unless you have a pet or group. He blinds you constantly, and when he runs away while you are blinded he is back again with full health in, maybe, 30 seconds. He seems to have infinite mana too. Is that true for all monster spellcasters? (I haven't been playing the game very long)

The good thing is that Rungupp will not likely kill you single handedly either once you are over lvl 8, because his nukes and punches don't hurt very much. Note that the Erudite Emissiaries or Guards will not help you against Rungupp for some reason. He might CAUSE you to die though, because he sometimes pulls skeletons, and he keeps casting these annoying blinding spells on you. Once you are out of mana, low on health or just generally fed up and start running, well timed blinding spells might cause you to stumble into more wandering skeletons (if low level) or necromancers (if a bit higher). Fighting these blinded and without mana while Rungupp nukes and blinds you from a distance is no fun. I have died twice that way even though he conned green to me several levels back, and my personal mission in life right now is to get even with the green bastard.

I just came here from EQ Atlas and apparently the story is, is that this guy is a nuisance. Apparently, a group of level 11's couldn't take him down. But yet I read these stories of level 4's soloing. What's wrong here? What is the right story? It just seems no matter how hard an NPC is reported to be there is always a story of a guy who solo'ed it. Why is that? Someone's not telling the truth... how many people have died b/c they got the wrong information on this site?

I'm going to have a try at this Rungupp fellow myself and report back with my side of the story.

OK. For those of you who haven't looked at a map recently, I'm sorry. Check the EQAtlas map of Toxx.

Rungupp spawns in the most southernwest point in the zone, roughly every 12 minutes. As a druid and aspiring tailor, I find plently of other things to do while working on my faction with Guk, such as tracking down poachers for Qeynos faction and spiderlings for their silk! :)

Maybe he's related to Bugglegupp, the annoying troll in Steamfont. They're both hated throughout Norrath.

should i kill rungupp at lvl9 im a lvl9 magician and im not sure if i should kill him at nine what does he drop?will he kill me if i have a lvl 8-9 pet attacking him if im blind?can he kill a lvl 9 magician?

Give rungupps head to Vansil (sp?). He is on the top floor of the mages (gatecallers) guild in Erudin. You will get faction, xp and some small coin for your troubles.

Air Elementals can always see the invisible... Learned the hard way in Naj.

he's not a shadow knight, he's a shaman,
and the HT spell for NPC's come's back when the entire agro list is gone,
Both SK's and Shaman's are allied for trolls ogre's,
WubWub why do you say he's a SK? darkones is the shaman faction as well,
NPC's hp regenerates x4 (x6 if troll/Iks) faster then any npc when not agroed, and those are facts.

He can be a mean SOB... I can take him with my pet at lvl6 and solo at lvl 9.. as for his head... it is a quest item that you take to the Heretics, i forget the girls name you take it to so, unless you are of dark alignment don't even bother with it.

I've killed him a few times with my Eru Pal, by far the easiest kills are when he's on or by the bridge, because once you get him running away from you he beelines for every nearby skel and aggros them onto you. But if you fight by the bridge, he just runs back and forth on the bridge without leaving it. Use of a shield and bash are highly recommended, good way to break his cocnentration and stop him blinding you. Plus you can just count seconds and hit your hot key to fire it off whenever it should be ready again, or if you hear him starting to cast. And as a pal, using my own flash of light to blind HIM was nice and appropriate ;)

Killed him with my lvl 4 chanter and lvl 5 pet, casted on him then basically blinf, pet did the rest). Just need to get my faction up to get the quest for his head which is a pain.

As a troll shaman I made the experience that everytime I did a quest in my shaman guild in grobb my faction with the grobb sks got up too. See them as one guild just divided in two orders with different names.

Runggup has died to both my Erudite characters...a Lev 10 Necro and a Lev 9 Mage. He did try to cast spells but my pet and I seemed to resist his blindness and poison spells. He fell fairly easily to a few shock of blades.

Problem is...I can't get the Mages in my own damn guild to give me the quest!

I'm a lvl 42 Enchanter, and I went in and charmed him. Rather fun to get rungupp to kill all the poachers.

What you do with his head????

I'm a 28 high elf pal, If I run around killing this guy, my faction should get better with the frogs in guk?
