when ur solo'ing him, he dont banish you, he only does that when your in a group. Solo'ed him as a 67 shaman 712aa's. Done it about 12 times, rarest bp drop was donal's which dropped once. didnt get below 20m, oow gear, 4.8k hp 6.7k mana unbuffed. and he is a belly caster, which means unless a spell is un-resistable, it probally wont land on him unless ur in melee range.

he do summon, but he will summon u back. just clear jug 3spawn room where he banishes u or else u will get a fat train.

Just attempted a solo kill on Trak 04/22/05, he does banish when you are solo, and if you have not gotten him below the 96% summoning mark, after he banishes you he will chase you to the banish point and bring any zone mobs between him and you. If in fact you did get him below 96% then the fight is on. remeber as soon as you are banished he dose not lose agro and will run to you making it important to clear the juggs unless you like adds.< normaly will be a 1 sec delay after your banish to being summoned > On this specific attempt I had gotten him to 53% before i ended up fighting him in the water before his spaw point. if you feel up to soloing him, just be prepaired to be banihed.

And a quick edit for my previous post, pet classes do not get banished, just have him tank, making it appear as if Trak no longer banishes while soloing.

to your first question, yes, due to the pretty nice loot and ease of kill, his spawn is pretty well monitored and he doesnt last long before he meets his demise.

as for your second question. yes, you shouldnt even break a sweat.

solo?

As a 66 chanter with decent aa's and pretty good gear could not get anything other then tash to hit him. His max hit on me was 725, he lifetapped me for the 1500 1-3 times every fight and proc'd ae every time. The banishment sends you to a room with 2 shrooms who will argo more if not dealt with, was never summoned back by him even after most of group was dead. We tried him three times first time was a 70 wiz 67 necro and me, second and third was a 70 mage 66 necr 67 necr 69 pally, 70 cleric, 69 cleric and me. If you feel the need to take this guy out I would bring some friends or at least a necro to summon your body. As to this guy being solo'd theres no way unless your up there in aa's and gear and if you are all I have to say about that is i'm sorry but you need to get out more.

He and a lot of other Kunark/Velious dragons are belly-casters. Meaning you need to be in melee range to land most spells on him. Tash only landed because it's unresistable.

If you're the only one with aggro and get banished, assuming you did enough damage at first, wont he just summon you back? or is the banish spot too far out of range?

yes.. you will, assuming you maintain agro after being banished, the real problem is you get banished into a room with 2 mobs that will agro as soon as you get there, then when summoned those 2 will train everything between them and Traks room back with them
Soloed
# Nov 09 2004 at 9:36 PM Rating: Decent
He was soloed on Nameless last night by a Warrior NONE the less putting a group of BST WIZ DRU PAL to shame.

Was funny to watch - but here is my question. How on earth do you solo him with Banishment - I meant the only reason we kept losing at 30-40% was the nukers would eventually get banished.

He never once was banished. Anyone fill me in on this question pls would appreciate it.
RE: Soloed
# Mar 24 2005 at 5:18 AM Rating: Decent
my guess would be when he got banished he was summoned back right away so if you werent watching closely you may have missed it but.. i wasnt there so its just an assumption

I dont see how anyone who isnt 65+ and time or GoD geared can solo him. Heck Vox ate me in one bite. but I'm about to go raid him really soon so will let ya all know how many times I died =)

Twit, he's a Kunark Era raid encounter, of course he's now a "group" encounter to someone with gear of that level more than 5 expansions later. But, to people with plain ol' gear, maybe those who don't have KT/EP access, he's not a group encounter, unless they are damn good, make no mistakes, and are still lucky.

Now, off with you braggart. Back to the world where you think your pixelated accomplisments have some sort of meaning.

Your lvl 41 so what the F*** do you know about anything. Hes been soloed by SKs, Rangers, Druids, Necros, and Monks that I know of. I think a Paladin has done him before too. And you cant even hit 120 HP regen a tick.
RE: Took him down
# Oct 04 2004 at 3:24 PM Rating: Default
While I believe that it would be difficult to take trak down solo (i have seen the logs so i wont say impossible, heck some people say its impossible to break pofear w/out a raid or multiple CR's), it is not by any means impossible to regen 120 a tic.. go get a druid/shaman to cast regen on you, then group up with a bard ask him to twist nivs and marr, if he has a good lute and aa's you will breach 120 by a long long shot.. heck a bard with 3.0 or higher lute and the right AA's can bust 120 by himself.. i know i can do 110 with my aa iim, a ruj battle lute, nivs, and marr, plus the natural 7 standing regen, 3 from items, and 3 from aa that i have.. if i am feeling punchy i can twist all that with my singing BP for around 320 every 2 ticks.. (tick being the general game term for 6 seconds, ie 1 pulse of a dot/regen type spell/effect)
RE: Took him down
# Nov 06 2004 at 3:07 PM Rating: Decent
I wasnt saying that trak is impossible to solo, I think with the right class, and strategies it might indeed be possible. and I also wasnt insinuating that PoFear is impossible to break in.. I have done the break in many times myself by myself.. I have solo cleared nearly the whole west side of the zone camping my epic pieces and doing break ins and path clears for other people to be able to get their pieces. I was only stating that other people have told me "its impossible to solo in fear" or "it takes a 3-4 group raid minimum to break in.. while this might have been true before AA skills and better gear, it doesnt hold water now. and on the Regen thing.. i wasnt saying that if you had a bard pulsing heals on you it counts as soloing.. what I said is it is indeed possible to regen that much health.. I guess my first post was unclear.
RE: Took him down
# Oct 16 2004 at 1:30 AM Rating: Decent
first of all, people can easily solo trak now he doesnt have that much hp. And the fear break in thing , I can solo break in on my druid. Only 1/3 of the mobs in fear seeinvis so I run in all the time and check mobs and you can even solo the mobs.

If you had a bard twisting songs on you this wouldn't exactly be soloing.

RE: Took him down
# Dec 11 2004 at 3:55 PM Rating: Default
As a EP/Time+ necro myself, is it only me who notices that the necros wake the dead pet on the log lasted longer than the alloted time? Really though, they don't last for 5 minutes. And If my eyes saw this right he used two lifeburns in a row without any other spello interuption in between? Tell me how this is so. And some of the numbers he used seemed so "obvious", like 323 damage on the lifetap I think it was. Not sure of the integrity of that log, please fill me in.
RE: Took him down
# Dec 16 2004 at 2:48 AM Rating: Decent
Actually, there is a spell interrupted message between the two casts. Also, his archer pets may have been the pets that were up at the end of the fight rather than the WTD pet.

Is it possible to pull the two named guards just outside his lair without pulling him as well without fd? I attempted to pull the seblite protector from his lair and thought i was successful until trak finally caught up with us (hes kind of slow) and wiped the raid. Anyway, im looking for advice on how to pull his room and the one right before him. TY for any help.
New or unmarked AOE
# Aug 09 2004 at 2:42 AM Rating: Decent
We took a force up there to kill him, first thing he did was stun the tank, second thing was he aoed Pyrocruor which started to eat everyone in the raid, as we were ready with MR and PR, but not FR. Don't underestimate him, doesn't seem slowable with tash alone, maybe disease slow. didn't malo first though, he has some NICE mr.

Good luck, pls update his beastiary.
RE: New or unmarked AOE
# Sep 08 2004 at 4:00 PM Rating: Decent
I have now fought him 5 times, and this original encounter is the only time we were hit with this Pyrocruor, so maybe it bugged or something, I dunno.

another trak run
# Jun 04 2004 at 8:59 AM Rating: Default
Anyways - so after the plow we set up in the hallway shy of trak - Goofy is one hell of a trak puller. I mean tricks up his sleave galor. Pulls trak -= egress then COH -= and then trak wanders - but fear not. He pulls EVERY golem w/out trak or tolpumj for us to clear. THEN - tol single pulled - then we rush to Trak. Just an excellant clear to Trak all the way around.

THEN, it is time to engage. Don't know about the actual initiation my log isn't working for some reason. Anyhow - I saw that cop was engaging Trak so I moved behind my pole. There is this pole by the bridge that I hide behind when we fight trak at spawn - seems to protect me from AOE but I can still shoot - shrug. either out of range or counts as a polygon.

Regardless - my group started getting smoked as Trak was at about half damage so I stopped shooting and tried to heal - all out of range. So I looked at who was worst at the moment - and as luck had it, it was Uilea the Wizard. SO I cast cure twice and then healed a little bit, but out of curiosity I switched back to Trak to see health - I don't memba but it wasn't much less I was like uh oh - and about that time Track and umm SInadar I think died. SO I went back to shooting then Uilea was out.

didn't know what was up with the other group but then Trak was at 10-12% and I was like hmmm - suddenly Trak dropped to 2% (Apparently Nist stood inside Trak to get a cast off) and a couple shots of the arrows and Trak fall over go boom - Fingor down to like 10% health - and remarkably The remaining Ranger is at.... /boggle 100% health - I scrolled up and noticed that I had been hit by at least a couple of his AOEs but resisted them all. I cast a quick heal on Fing and a cure then over to nist and jumjum the remaining survivors from G1. Cop, Res, goofy, and toban resting in peace.

then noticed almost too late that nist wasn't healed so another cure finnaly got rid of the poisen with him close. That was about the time I noticed that Fingor had died from the dot while I was wasting time looking at the corpse or something. I thought FOR SURE that I had got a cure message on Fingor - oh well. His death was on my hands not trak. hell I was grouped with Fingor I shoulda noticed the HP dropping. Oh well its not like Serano hasn't been responsable for thousands of deaths so far... heh heh.

Regardless with Nistari alive and grouped with Goofy and Toban still - COH chain was established and those 2 ran back to Seb, zoned in - Toban COHed and whole raid rezzed up - Jum, Nist and I only had time to kill one mob while we waited - our second victim spawned as Toban showed up so so much for Juggs fun in Seb.

Trak gave up 5 teeth - 1 for dizzy, Toban, Serano and Jumjum and one for Goofy for a MQ. Also dropped Rogues BP - - AGAIN> /sigh. Dropped the nice 15 AC plus 7 to all melee stat minus 15 to PR Mantle - that nobody could use

https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=1068

Not really all that bad for strait melee type encounters unless you have better already.

Unussually only level 56 thru 60 spells dropped so had to keep them all for the bank /sigh. If you are a level 56 thru 62 Mage, wizard, druid, enchanter, necro, shaman or BL - or soon to be one - it would behoove you to look at our spell bank in members section - cause - we would really like the space. take spells, please!

Enough crap loot dropped to buy another stack of pearls for next time plus an extra 200 or so that I looted, so at least like ussual the raid was paid for. And remember if you are raiding with us and you are a mage cleric or chanter make sure to get a stack of dots or pearls from an officer! Other regents are by request - because I am not smart enough to know that a Shaman is casting emerald eating spells or not.

All in all an easy plow a surprise ending to the fight - that luckily allowed us to recover nicely and get out of the Old Seb.

# May 18 2004 at 1:38 PM Rating: Decent
Everyone is saying this is a gimp dragon for thier raids. so perhaps would a guild force of 3 groups consisting of a 61 war MT and 2 6k hp 59 sk's MA with 3 clerics and well rounded dps be able to handle Trakanon? if the average of raid lvl was 55? i know it's a stretch but we got the keys last night and we are constantly trying to push our power by takeing harder spawns like the idol of rallos zek lol (which wiped us) but a 1.5k life tap and 600 dmg hits don't sound like much of jack sh*t compaired to idol's 1000 dmg average quads....
