Solo'd at level 46 with my Earth pet and a pair of Jboots on Fippy Darkpaw server. Aggro kited him around the lava pool while my pet beat on his back and occasionally rooted him

Got the drop on the first try. Why? Because I'm awesome

Easy for lvl 49 mage and pet. Lucky me...he dropped dirt on first trry. 8)

Spawn locaton on Innoruuk (Nameless) is +675 -1130
Right next to the red glowing ball

Downed him on Tunare / Ec'i at 8:44 PM pacific Time. Was Fairly easy as a 52 mage but had a 70 pally with me. He killed it in 2 procs of Holyforge Combat ability of 4k+


So he must have like 8 - 10k hp, notsure didnt nuke it once. Hit for 40 dmg at the most on pally.

At level 51, this guy was pretty easy. I got Virtue on myself and my pet, and I got KEI for myself. I took the OT stone and went to Skyfire. Head south and then when you reach the zone border, go west. Invis is a VERY good thing here. Once you get to BW (I had a map), there will be a meteor at about -1000, -1000... but a little north of that. North of the meteor is a massive crater (the meteor itself is in the crater). I lev'd myself, and Slixin was right there, just north of the meteor. I BOIII'd and DS'd my pet, and pulled him with malaise as far away as I could (I have a drog, they take time to speed up). I ran up the southern edge of the crater, and run a tad more (a VERY tad). I summoned my pet (Summon Companion, gotta love that spell), and waited... and waited... finally, this guy shows up.

The fight was easy. I started off by chain healing my pet when he started to get below 80, and then I nuked once (come on, gotta have SOME exp! ;)). After the fight was over (and he didn't drop anything), I noticed that my mana was at 0, but my pet's health was fairly high. I changed my tactics for the next pull. Now, I was healing with Refresh Summoning ONLY, rather than alternating heals (as per the mag chain healing tactic) until my pet got down to 50% (it took quite a while), at which point I switched back to alternating heals for a short time. Slixin died shortly after I reverted to alternating.

The third pull, he started running before my earth pet re-rooted him. He dropped the dirt, and I gated back out.

He hits for about 137, and has at least 8,000 hp, based on the fact that I nuked for 600 and his hp went down something like 7%.

I went to Burning Woods last night with my level 51 magician, looking for some Dirt of Underfoot. A couple of comments on Slixin:

I killed him twice. First time, he dropped no loot at all. Second time, he dropped the Dirt of Underfoot and nothing else.

The second Slixin was definitely harder to kill than the first. But I could not have handled either version without some heavy buffing. I had KEI; my pet had Pot9, Regeneration, and Nature's Might in addition to Burnout III and Lava Shield. It was still fairly close, so I got the druid who buffed me the first time to come stand by for the second fight. That made the situation considerably safer.

I might mention that neither of us encountered any mobs on the way from the Dreadlands zone to the meteor (although I saw a wurm in the distance), and there were no wanderers or adds during the two fights and the between fight meditating.

Slixin is shown here as a warrior - best I can tell, he cast no spells - but he did a lot of spin kicks that certainly looked like monk moves to me.

Been doing my epic for my Magician on the Venril Sathir server, this mob isnt too tough, Soloable with ease to a level 51 Magician. It spawns every 30 mins or so, and NEVER drops the bloomin Dirt of Underfoot :P

Guess I'll be going back tonight /yawn.

I just killed Slixin Klex for the first time. I used three of my 57 Earth pets on him. I did no direct damage and casted no heals except for last pet when I saw I'd win. . I only casted Burnout IV and Cadeau of Flame as pet buffs. At around 20% pet health I started to cast the next one with "/pet get lost" typed and waiting for the return key.

Of course no Dirt of Underfoot.

<EDIT>
As mentioned before: The hornets around there can be annoying so you might want to have a close look at the surrounding while fighting Klex.
(You can outrun the hornets with the cheapest horse, so it might be a good idea to get your mount. )

This dude is gimp.. he touched me once :P ... i ran into a tree in the beginning while running backwards hehe. He has a decent amount of hps but otherwise gimp, kited him at 51 with my bard. Dropped Dirt of the undertoe or whatever it is for mage epic... made a mage in guild happy since its MQable and he dont have to camp him forever to get the drop :).

To the jackass that was camping this guy for loot, he drops nothing but a coin for research, leave him be so those questing their Veeshan peak key can find him up after running this far.

anyone know a general loc of this guy?

First of all, Slixin Klex is very easy to kill. I strongly feel that a L52 mage can solo him without chaining. Use 51 earthpet. Use 52 pet heal spell no problem.

It took 9 kills for me to get the Dirt. Some people are luckier, some are less lucky. Plan to be there for a while.

Here's the advice:
You have to get to BW. Have a druid friend/guildie take you, then run to BW. You will want the druid to track Gullerback and the named wurms to kill between Slixin Spawns. Mages need a drop from the wurms anyway, and this helps alleviate the boredom.

IMPORTANT: Bring a third player. He needs to be a tank. You do not need him to kill Slixin. You do not need him to kill the named wurms or Gullerback. You need him to keep the variety of angry hornets off your back.

These stinking green/light blue/ even dark blue hornets are a serious problem once your pet is committed to a higher level foe, Slix or wurm. Cinder hornets are hight 30s. Scoriae (sp?) are even higher. They hit for over 100.

All of you high 40s to mid 50s mages know exactly how long you're going to last taking 250 damage per round from an add mob you didn't expect.

Take a tank with you, I say again. It will remove all doubt and difficulty from the main kills. And, it will save your live from those stupid hornets.

Last night I killed Slixen. He was very easy. Just had to chain cast my 51 Vocerate Earth Pet and Lava Shield and Burnout 3 it. Took 4 to 6 pets all with DS and Burnout 3. Only thing to watch out for is possible adds from hornets. I did cast elemental maelstorm on him once. But all and all it was pretty easy. Hope this helps some mages out.

A lvl 55 Mage buddy of mine was soloing him last night. He used about 20mana and 6 lvl 51 Earth pets (medding between pets that is). I got tired of playing my monk, so I joined him with my 51 Mage. Easy duo. Both of us using 51 earth, he dropped in about 5 total pets. killed him 12 times. His respawn time is about 27 mins. ( Got 2 dirts, one on the 5th kill, other on the 12th. He has an estimated 12-15K HPs, doubles and triples, max hit I saw was 147 I think (could be more). We slayed some scoraie hornets and some wurms to pass the time between spawns, hoping to get some spells 8(. Named wurm Nez was up, but we couldn't find him...Lol...Mages need track I tell you. Was hoping to get some embers too, oh well. cyas.

Camped this guy with a cleric friend for almost 6hrs. NO DIRT!!! Has anyone gotten any dirt off this guy lately? Burning Woods is a BORING place to hang out for 6 hrs and I'm not done yet 8=(

I keep seeing people say I killed the PH and it spawned easy... yet nobody ever bothers to say who the PH is on these things ... I am referring to the person who said he killed the PH on teh named wurm.

Why is everyone so vague when they friggin post here. I mean I come here for help not more unanswered questions.

What is the respawn time on him? We're doing an all day Ix fest for 5-6 clerics and were going to whack him for the mages while we were there if respawn was fast enough.

I, a 52 magician, dropped Slix with the help of a 43 enchanter, 44 druid, and 45 cleric just recently. Got an add or two during the fight, wasn't an issue... this guy was surprisingly easy. Got the dirt the first kill.

Monk, no faction hits. Forget what he hits for, had a decent amount of hp, but is probably normal or below average for his level. Maybe equivalent to a Rock Golem from Hole?

[52 mag] Willan Syphus <Mithril Valour> Server: Tarew Marr

Killed it w/ c3 (KEI) and 52 new pet heal plus chain pet cuz added 2 ash bees /
use all the mana then nuke and melee to prevent pet dead~~
will be easy if no add :|
i am using 57 earth pet

killed him with the help of a 52 druid kiting him with me 52 mage chain casting lava bolt dealing 810 every cast. additionally, lava bolt would do the whopping double damage. How I love that spell <evil grin>

If you have 57 mage pet (earth staff helps). burnout pet, dmg shield pet. pull with malosi then send pet in. trick is to run far enough away and have pet targeted, second you see pet die make another pet and dmg shield it before he gets to you. repeat until he starts running then blast with whatever mana you have left. It's a boring tactic but it worked for me. Killed him 10 times before getting dirt.

Hey Hugh, was the one that dropped the dirt IN the crater by the Meteor? Alla has two MOB's listed with the same name, so I don't know if one is static and one is roaming. I've killed the one on that ledge in the crater at least a dozen times now, no Dirt. BTW, I was 51 before I started hunting him, but I'd be very surprised if he was L50, he's maybe a little tougher then the Wurms but not too much.

Easy kill as 1/2 of a 51 Mage/Nec Combo, has roughly 6K HPs. Killed him 5 times last night, no drop of the Dirt, I'm wondering since Alla has two MOB's with the same name posted if he's the right one. He spawns right next to the Meteor up on a ledge, few wanderers except the occasional hornets.
