the froglok shin lord  

This guy dropped like a stone. Camped the room #17 on the map and he spawned by the fake wall in the room after 3 hours.

>>Vlek 64 SK - Combine

Quote from above....

The Shin Lord is a Paladin (a fact which many Paladins after Ghoulbane find a bit odd), he can lay hands and is without a doubt the toughest fight in Upper Guk.

The Shin Lord was really meant for the Shadow Knights. A true Paladin would do the quested version to acquire Ghoulbane rather than take the easy way and slaughter one of their own for it.

That is why there are two ways to get Ghoulbane. One of Shadow Knights and one for Paladins.

What is the freaking spawn timer on this camp? Cause killing them takes all of like a minute with my 70 pally and I do not want to sit here on my butt staring at an empty room for half an hour.

i have camped this site for over 10 hours now, and the shin lord doesnt even pop. just bad luck or is this pop not working anymore ?

My SK is camped out in the room. As I type this, I am holding the entire area down with nothing but my 37 mage and a fire pet.

All your Ghoulbane are belong to me!!!

Since most posts here are savvy...Is this spawn soloable by a lvl 39th DE SK. With a MOSS, and around 780 ac/ 820 atk, and 1312 hps.

I think this is close to the actual stats, if it matters.

Thanks.

Just camped the Shin Lord yesterday on Innoruuk server. Ghoulbane does still drop, but as stated in other post, is no drop now.

Hey folks, Well, I got my ghoulbane finally, and I decided after reading these posts that the besttime to get it was during off hours. I must have had a run of bad luck unlike the lower post cause it took me 8 hrs to get er. I had gone thru 4 Shin Lords. Oh, btw, they Pallies and use LOH mostly before they getto half health, thank god for stupid AI*lol*. So what I noticed was he respawned shortly before my HT returned which putis it at roughly 80-90 min pop timer but the 4th was a lot longer. I assumed that the 4th would have it cause of him being rare that 1 time and sure enough. Best part is, he didn't LOH that last run but nailed me for 3 X 154 when I tried to land DoTs but went down rather easily. Another part of epic complete. Good luck to all who hunt here :)

Just wanted to update everyone about the ghoulbane, I camped the lord for roughly 4 hours, in a two day period. First night I spent three hours in the room clearing everything, no lord popped. Next night I log in and kill a couple shin warriors and POP, theres the lord. The weapon wasn't in his hand, so I thought he wouldn't drop it. MANY MANY heals later, he finalyl died. This guy can heal himself and has what seems is never ending mana. I killed the shin warrior and other warrior before attacking the lord, and the lord healed them both the whole time, BOTH OF THEM and then himself THE WHOLE FIGHT. man this guy had some mana...Anway, way off track here. It DOES still drop, just kill all the ph's and wait patiently. Oh yea, I am a 42 SK and had no trouble keeping the area clear.

i'm not sure this sucker spawns any more. i camped him with a group three weeks in a row on saturday. twice before the patch and once after.

the two times before the patch we would average seeing him about once every 40 minutes. room is on roughly 12 minute spawn. he would come maybe every 4th.

3rd time was after patch and we camped for 4 hours without once getting a lord spawn.

i imagine this will be fixed but believe as of right now, if you want the ghoulbane you might just save your pp.

i will also say this. if they make the spawn more rare i hope they make the drop more common. on those two saturdays combined we prolly killed this guy close to 10 times - never seen the sword.

i'm not sure if you could solo him at 31, i think it might be a bit tough. to recount my experiences with him, i first encountered him as a lvl 33 Ogre SK. the first time i ran in invis'd and was looking for the room he spawned in. well, right as i rounded the corner i was greeted by "frroooaaaakkk...froak, froak...". so I guess he can see invis. i got jumped by him and his 2 buddies (all conned blue to me) and well, needless to say, NOW LOADING...

i did notice he was holding a sword so i thought it might be Ghoulbane. determined to get it for my epic, i went down again - this time ready for combat since i knew he could see invis. i went in ready to die, but ready to take him with me and loot him before his buddies killed me. well, that didn't happen...because I didn't know he was a pally and had LoH. :) right after i engaged him i HT'd him to try and lower him enough to run. well, i got him low and to my surprise, the LoH kicked in. NOW LOADING...

3rd time i decided to save the HT until he was low so i could kill him outright before he had a chance to LoH. Froak, frooooaaakkk. NOW LOADING...

4th time...yes, i was determined to get that sword (didn't realize he could have been holding a rusty) i happened upon my lvl 51 shammy friend in innothule on my 3rd CR. got uber-buffs and stormed in to rightfully claim my sword. i got him to run but the shammys in the room nextdoor healed him up. let me just say that FD at 1 bub of life & half a bub of mana is some good =).

i don't consider myself twinked, so that might make a difference. i think i went in with a Sporali & Crusty shield, Netherbian BP, a few pieces of Darkforge, etc. anyhow, i will say that he'll be much easier if you can manage to clear the area first. but i think that'd be a bit rough soloing at 31.

long story short? a few friends from the Fire Knights came down & gave him some payback and let me loot him. :)

Ok, i have a question. Could a lvl 31 Pally with a Wurmy that hits for 40 almost every time and a couple times the 75 solo this guy? Becuase i REALLY want this sword instead of doing the quest. Plz reply A..A.P.

as a 51 SK i cleared his room twice then he pops and i HT him for 731 damage he already starts running. lol he never even had a chance to lay on hands. dropped the Ghoulbane on his first pop. and a hint is always kill the shamans first in his room and then any other frogs in the next room so they dont agro and then wait a minute to kill the PH so they dont all pop at the same time

I hate this punk. I am trying to get the damn sword for my epic. Whenever i am in the neighborhood of Innothule i drop in. Pet and i clear the area and wait for lord to pop. 4th kill last night and no sword. Got 4 bracers and 2 rusty swords so far.

BTW, he is not hard if you can deal with the inevitable LOH and can break the spawn. First time i did this was in low 40s. Now i just do the whole room at once, but he can be a pest, especially if there is a shaman from the next room healing him.

When I was doing this horrible camp as a 47th SK I easily kept this room clear and was able to go clear the jail area to try and get the warden to pop in between room spawns.. Used the vehemnt sword of revinje(sp) The rune shield made all but the Shin lord trivial fights. Sword never seemed to proc against him when I needed it LOL.

the ghoulbane is becoming a no drop item, which means no more farming it! now only pally's can get any use out of their first holy sword, so no more twinking your low lvl pallies with this sword!

Best way to find the spawn spot is to get a map from www.EQAtlas.com. I went to LGuk first time to check it out and try to get a Ghoulbane for my epic quest (I am a lvl 41 SK) I made it to his room using Gather Shadows with no problem, There were 3 mobs in the room including a shaman. Affter killing 2 of them i had to use FD as another mob decided to join in the fight and I was at 2 bubs (didn't want to risk it!). Then I used hide, get up, bandage and kill the remaining mob, and so the room spawn was broke. You can stay in the corner and fight without aggroing the rest ot the mobs. A few hours later, one lord spawned, but no Ghoulbane. So the room is soloable at 41 if you're an SK and have descent gear (not twinked but have done the DarkForge quests). If you need assistance send Ueuelr a tell, i'll be there until i get the Ghoulbane. Oh and the place is not farmed anymore (on Tunare at least!)

Just a short and brief question....is it possible a Level 38 Paladin can solo this room for the ghoulbane?

in Lguk...both live and dead shin frogs drop SHin gauntlets and shin greaves

camped it for 4 days, 7 silver plated bracers later, still no GB... goddammit

To get your UpperGuk faction back you can kill Rungupp in SW Toxx forest or any number of Undead Frogloks in Lower Guk. If you are low level like me and don't particulary enjoy the trip to LGuk with KOS froggies, Rungupp is the answer.

I know I'm not a pally, but I helped a pally camp this item and now all of the wizzie quest items in this zone are monumentally more difficult for me to get with bad faction (Froglok Scryer Mask, for example).
