Rungupp and etc.
# Jul 12 2001 at 10:07 AM Rating: Default
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.

I'm a lv5 paladin that ran into Rungupp and he took forever to kill my ***. His blindness is crazy. I wish he'd just kill me and get it over with if he's going to incapacitate me. No... he takes about 10 min to do the ugly job and I hate him for it. The bast***.

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! :)

Spawn where?
# Mar 27 2001 at 1:49 AM Rating: Default
Where does this sucker spawn? I need the Faction hits on him. I know he is on the other side of the bridge when you come form Erudin. The map shows he spawns near the water on the Pan side. Does he patrol from there to the brige? Any help would be nice. Thanks
Bugglegupp?
# Dec 30 2000 at 7:24 PM Rating: Default
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?
RE: what lvl should i kill him at?
# Oct 01 2000 at 8:52 PM Rating: Default
hehe..well I am a level 6 necro, I schooled Rungupp. I cast Poison bolt to start, he resisted, so I sent the pet in and cast poison strike again, another resist. So I tried disease cloud and clinging darkness both resisted, so I just ran up and started whaling on him. All he seemed to do was try to keep me blind...during this time my pet kicked his ***.

I will be surprised if he can kill you at level 9...
RE: what lvl should i kill him at?
# Apr 01 2001 at 3:50 PM Rating: Default
Killed him fairly easily with my (just levelled) lvl6 magician + earth pet (summoned during previous lvl, was blue to me then). Pet had full health at end, I had half - just back off and keep casting your best dd using ALT keys..

Rungupp Quest
# Aug 31 2000 at 12:56 PM Rating: Decent
Do the Gloves of Gatecallers quest and then you will be asked to bring the head of an ogre (yes it is incorrect since Rungupp is a troll) back.
Dont bother looking for an ogre just kill Rungupp and bring his head back.

what do i need for the gloves of the gatecallers quest????!!?
rungupps head
# Aug 17 2000 at 2:27 PM Rating: Decent
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.

he's not a shadow knight
# Aug 04 2000 at 3:10 PM Rating: Good
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.

I just fought and killed Rungupp today, and I can confirm that he's a Shaman, not a Shadowknight.

First, he was casting 1st and 5th level Shaman spells, not Shadowknight spells.

Second, he /conned green to my level 10 Ranger, which means he's level 6 or lower; Shadowknights don't even get spells till level 9.

So Rungupp appears to be a level 5 or level 6 Troll Shaman.

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.
Ease of the troll?
# Jul 24 2000 at 12:25 PM Rating: Default
He con'd blue to me @ 6th. I had under half mana when I attacked him, and was accompanied by a level 5 pet. I managed to get him down to about 1/4 health before my pet died, and I was forced to flee. Next time he wont be so lucky.

To stop him from regenerating, cast disease cloud on him. Then DoT him, and help your pet tank. When you start to get low on health, lifespike him, and renew your DoT. If he blinds you, dont panic and run from him blindly into the forest. That is everyone's problem. Blindness is no biggie. Hit F8 to re-target him, and start whacking him again. Cast more Lifespikes(time it to happen after you yelp after an attack). The blindness doesn't last all that long.

From what I've seen, mages and necros have much less problems fighting this guy than do other classes. If it hadn't been for a pair of kobold watchers, I would have soloed him at 5 with a 5 pet.

Dont let him run
# Jul 22 2000 at 5:11 PM Rating: Decent
I wouldnt let him run though, he regenates pretty fast(Troll) so I suggest get a powerful spell and take him out in one hit.
Easiest On Bridge
# Jul 22 2000 at 3:59 AM Rating: Decent
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 ;)

What lvl do you have to be to kill this guy???
Sk or Shaman?
# Jun 29 2000 at 7:57 AM Rating: Decent
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.

Is it true
# Jun 22 2000 at 10:58 PM Rating: Decent
I have heard that this guy can zone accross the bridge. And if you run to the guards they will not kill him. Is this true?
Never had a problem
# Jun 12 2000 at 2:56 PM Rating: Decent
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!

This quest is given by Vasile Jahnir, in the Erudin Mage Guild, but you won't get it by just hailing him: it's a followup quest to the 'Power of the Gatecallers' quest he gives when you hail him.

Do that one first, then he'll tell you about the quest to kill Rungupp. (Actually, he tells you about an ogre, but it's Rungupp the troll whose head he really wants.)
Rungupp died

I'm a lvl 42 Enchanter, and I went in and charmed him. Rather fun to get rungupp to kill all the poachers.
Hmmm
# May 26 2000 at 10:14 PM Rating: Decent
If it takes 10x the number of frogs someone has killed to get faction back, then if camped the bandit camp in ek and stay there till i killed 10x the number of millers and then camp the skellie camp for cleric/paladin faction...hmm...

I'm not sure what to do with the head but my banker said to please hurry and get rid of it. Apparently, it stinks and he is starting to lose business.
