Nobody seems to have posted about how to kill this guy (the real VS). There's only one way to do it and not get wiped.
MT stands in front of VS and gets aggro. All other Melee stand behind him (VS). MT gets aggro for 10-15 seconds before engage call is made. All other melee's stand at max melee range and engage FROM BEHIND!
Healing:
Chanters: Chain rune the MT.
Healers: Multiple, small, quick heals. NO CH HEALS, or else all you are doing is feeding VS.
If someone other than the MT gets aggro, LET THEM DIE! DO NOT HEAL THEM, because once again, you're just feeding VS. Sounds rough, but it's the fact of life with this mob. VS is going to lifetap the person at the TOP of his hate list. This needs to be the MT and only the MT.
If MT Dies, evac and try it again. This mob takes discipline to kill. If you don't use strategy, you'll just be on a perpetual CR.
Venril Sathir
Raid Encounter
Uploaded July 24th, 2007
In the Tower of Frozen Shadow: Part of the fifth encounter within the Tower of Frozen Shadow anniversary raid (see this quest entry for raid information).
In Karnor's Castle:
The Main items in his loot table are the Leggings for the various Kunark Class specific armor, as well as a line of two handed blunt staves for casters.
|
Background: Venril Sathir was the leader of the Iksar Empire who united the five tribes and brought them together to conquer most of the continent of Kunark.
Their rising power eventually attracted the attention of the Lords of the Ring of Scale (read: the Dragons of Veeshan's Peak). It was the mighty Trakanon who took it upon himself to wreak war upon the Iksar Empire, casting down this Necromancer leader.
Venril Sathir managed to cheat death somehow and now focuses on regaining the Iksar throne from his stronghold in Karnor's Castle.

"Rune MT? lol that trick doesnt work anymore for months"
I don't understand you? What doesnt work anymore? Runing against life taps?
As my guild's raid just wiped to VS I am quite interested to know exactly what you mean.

VS used to tap your rune. Chain runeing your MT meant VS wasnt healing himself. Quite a while back they changed him so now his life taps actually tap your life even if you have a rune up.

do you need a raid to kil him?
I havent seen anyone solo him ). Yeah yo do need a decent amount of ppl for it. 3 groups of 60's with alot of dps could wipe him fast. if yer not all 60's say all from 50-55 i'd say 5-7 groups

Ok, excuse my 'newbieism' on this. To trigger this Venril, you first have to give the summoned globe to his remains, then the 49 spirit spell, then he will pop alive to kill and loot for stones?
Thought it was simple :( that wait for a uber guild to kill him and remains will pop, give the globe and rez spell to him he'll give you the stone, or kill the remains after it repops after giving him the stone. Wish it was that simple. Humpt, got my facts backwords.

My guild (and some other char's we picked up along the way) tried the epic version of VS on 01/24, and got summarily wiped. Why? Poor planning, leadership, and almost no preparation. Here was our makeup as best I can remember it: 2 full groups, our MA was a 59 barb war, a 53 cleric, 2 54 druids, and assorted other melees to fill out the groups. Oh, and a 52 wizzie. Average level: 53-54.
We get to the room where VSR was, and the MA had almost no buffs. No preparation was taken, it seemed like. The druid that called us there jumped right in, handed the firefly globe to VSR, and then, since nobody other than him or me knew what to expect (since he didn't brief anyone), the MA started attacking Spirit of VS. Druid calls him off, hands over the Res scroll, and everyone has a heart attack when VS pops, because nobody knew to expect it. The MA panicked. He swore up and down that it was the real VS and almost started spamming the channel "We CAN'T DO VS!", because he didn't know that the epic version would spawn. He got whopped for 1500 off the bat (so the epic version can do that, I now know for a fact) and dropped like a rock, because none of the healers were ready to keep him alive. Why weren't they ready? They didn't know what to expect when the druid turned in the scroll. Luckily, as soon as our MA dropped, the wizzie evac'd us out of there.
Now, I'm going to be trying this again for my epic in a few weeks (if I'm lucky). By the time that rolls around, I should be 55 so I can Trueshot him when he gets low. But, based on everything I've read here, our groups SHOULD have been able to do it. It was, as I said, just a lack of planning and leadership. Anyone have any further advice about composition of the groups, etc? Would the druids be able to Superior Heal the warrior fast enough to keep him alive after the 1500 hit until a CH can land? So many questions to ask, so little time...well, thanks for the help I've already gotten off this board, I hope some more is forthcoming, and if one lesson is to be learned from my experience, it's this: tell people what to expect and what's going on!

You totally should have been able to take him. Sounds like the one Druid jumped the gun and didn't organize enough, like you said.
Just have all the healers present (Druids, Clerics, Shammies, Necros, Rangers, Palis, etc) dump a fast cast good heal as the battle starts. The Epic VS sholdn't Tap right off, but if four or five people are casting a 200-500 hp heal it shouldn't even make a dent in a good 55+ MT even if VS does Tap. Here is the battle writeup I put together for the Epic VS:
-- Venril Sathir Remains (VSR) --
Venril Sathir is found in Karnor’s Castle, in the Dreadlands. There are TWO VS! The high level (L55) Venril Sathir spawns every 3 days, and after patches of course. The NON-KOS Venril Sathir Remains (VSR) will spawn about twenty four hours after VS is killed and looks like an iksar sleleton. He may wander around a little, which is ok. He spawns outside the room that the real Venril Sathir spawns in, so he is easy to get to and no lock picking or anything is required. DO NOT ATTACK OR AGRO HIM!! If you do, you will ruin the chance at the Epic drop. VSR is part of both the Ranger and Druid Epic, and drops two pieces so two Druids/Rangers can complete this step at the same time! He will only drop the two Druid/Ranger Epic stones and a Shaman no drop Blackened Iksar Bones, nothing else.
The battle goes like this:
1. Druid/Ranger turns in Globe of Fireflies to the NON-KOS Venril Sathir Remains, which spawns a NON-KOS Venril Sathir Spirit that looks like an iksar ghost. DO NOT ATTACK OR AGRO IT!!
2. Druid/Ranger turns in Scroll of Resurrection to Venril Sathir Spirit and immediately a KOS Venril Sathir (VS) who looks like a living iksar in black robes will spawn and attack the person who turned in the scroll. This mob looks exactly like the real VS, but is much lower level (~ L51) and much easier to take down!
3. MA must attack and gain very solid agro because VS can proc a 1500 (yes, one thousand five hundred) point Lifetap! Lots of small heals will be necessary at first to keep agro on the MA. The MA calls for General Melee attack when VS is at 80% or less life. Casters can start nuking when VS is at about 40-50% life. The lower your defenses are, the more careful you want to be about getting agro, because if you get agro he will Lifetap you and heal himself very quickly!!

My guild is just starting to raid. Most of our members are in the 40s and high 50s. But we have a lvl 61 Cleric and 61 Warrior who are basically the backbone for the guild. Keeping that in mind, with the 61 warrior tanking the whole time and a 61 Cleric, and we build the rest of the raid around them, could we handle this guy?
Besides the cleric and warrior, what would be the minimum amount of people we'd need in the 40s to 50s to take this guy down?

Yeah, with the 61 Warrior & 61 Cleric...build the rest around them....maybe a couple Shammies, a couple Enchanters.....then fill in with Melee's and such....you should do fine, just make sure people are bried and aware of what's going to happen....
For example: You don't want a druid/ranger running over to VSR, handing things in.......then all the sudden two medding Mage's a wiz and a bard, are suddenly nose to nose with VS. *Laughs* Would not be a good suprise.....

It is important to point out that there are really TWO Venril Sathirs. The real Venril Sathir is a L55 iksar in black robes who procs a 1500 HP lifetap every other hit (more or less) and drops some nice loot including a Wizard Epic item. He could very easily and quickly mow through 30 unorganized people in their 50s... I'd bet that he'd do it in about 45 seconds and be at full health when done. The real VS spawns every three days.
Venril Sathir Remains (VSR) is a NON-KOS iksar skeleton, however when a Druid or Ranger does their two epic turnins a KOS iksar in black robes named Venril Sathir spawns. He is only level 51 and his lifetap is much less frequent (he sometimes is killed without tapping once), however he looks identical to the real VS. A balanced group of 8-12 mid 50s people with a high 50s tank can take him. He only drops two stones (1 is needed for each Ranger/Druid epic quest) and one Blackened Iksar Bones (for the Shammy quest for the Skyiron Cudgel of the Ancients). He drops these three items every time. VSR will spawn randomly within 24 earth hours (I've heard reports from 12 to 24) after VS is killed and then respawns approximately every 24 earth hours after being killed or despawned (by a Ranger or Druid doing their Epic turnins). Note, however, that he will despawn immediately if he is up when the real VS spawns.
This has created much confusion on the various message boards concerning how difficult a battle Venril Sathir is. Many people who have participated in the Druid/Ranger epic fight against the VS spawned from VSR have been under the impression they have actually engaged the real VS. Every discussion of VS tactics I've seen contains a number of posts essentially saying "We took him with 10 people and he's no problem, didn't even tap once!" It is a common misconception, so please don't sweat it, I just wanted to clear up the discussion here.

I was with a (Note single) group that took him down last night.
Granted we did have a couple 60+ and a 55+, then my lowly self at 50th. (Warrior, Rogue, Druid, Cleric, Wizard, Shaman)
I was there for the haste and slow. Good luck slowing this guy, I could not reduce his resists or land a slow. (6 casts of Malosi and 10 of Togor's Insects).
This was most likely due to my level (50th vs 55th) still that is VERY resistant.
On the plus side, he dropped the bones for my 8th skull quest.

I am curently a level 53 druid on Veeshan and was wondering what VS spawn time is. At one point this weekend I was there when VSR went down and timed it all out and had all the raid planed for 3 days later to take him out and happend to be goofing off in KC waiting for a raid of Kael that night when I see VS up? Now he did not spawn when he was suppose too. I have heared from other people that his spawn time has been changed anyone know what it is now?

Reading the posts below how easy this guy is...
Well VS-remains turn into an other VS version than the originally is.
The true VS is lvl 55 hits around 500 and has about 30k HP.
Not easy to take with two full groups of lvl 55+ but possible if people know what they doing.
He dropps all the loot listed above.
The "ressurected" VS is a weak copie. He is between lvl 50 and 52 hits for a max. of 250 and has 14k HP.
He can be done with one full group of skilled lvl 50+.
He dropps nothing but 2 glowing stones for the druid/ranger epic.
BTW... VSR spawn around 24h after VS got killed and despawn after 12h if not killed.

A guy took Spirit of VS to the zone and druid talked us into attacking it cause he wanted his epic piece, so my group (2 warriors, 1 ranger, druid, cleric, and shaman) attacked it and as soon as we started the fight he turned into VS himself....at that point i thought it was over, I was gonna die.... but 3 minutes later we were standing and he wasnt and 2 druids got the stones ranger got tolans legs and shaman got bones (i think for epic.
so this guy isnt all that tough.

Unfortunately, you are lying.
Venril Sathir drops the leggings and caster staves (never the stones), the epic version only drops two stones (and possibly the bones).
There's no way 2 stones, Tolan's leggings, AND the bones dropped at the same kill.

Umm... three groups (about 14-15 people), one enchanter and one epic'd cleric, one not. Could not take him out without the second enchanter for the runes. He would lifetap himself back from 65% health to Full. I doubt, that without MB Wizzies or at least one enchanter in your group that one group took him down.
I'm just the Necro in the back twitching the cleric but our first attempt without runes failed and we evac'd to the front with two deaths after a five minute bout.
This mob lifetaps himself pretty good. Reports were (remember I was in the back!) that he lifetapped for 1500 several times. CHealing over and over lol. Maybe he was changed over the past few weeks or you weren't attacking the same mob. Ours was Venril Sathir himself, not VSR.

Oki after reading all the messages if possible can I get a definate yes or no that the VS spawned by handing things to VSR is as hard as the real VS? As we are hoping to do this pretty soon and would be interested to know everything I can before hand .... Also Iamken, please can you say how many people you had etc when you took him out the other night so I can make sure I try and get the right mixture of peeps :)Unfortunately I do not know any Manaburn wizards bah, so will not be able to do it the easy way it seems :(
Thanks all
Thanks all
Took him out Nov 26th with 17 people ranging from 40 - 56, and 2 lvl 60's. Funny thing is all stories says bring a 59+ tank. Our main tank was a lvl 53 human warrior, dropped him in about 50 secs, with 0 deaths. Great fight, and yes he does lifetap, but only did it twice in this fight. Have a cleric, a chanter for rune and some melee for dps and he drops like a log.
Group 1 - 56dru,53war(MA),51clr,55ench,53sk,47bst
Group 2 - 51dru,56clr,52wiz,47bst,49shm,52dru
Group 3 - 54rng,51dru,60mag,60ench,40rng
Key to success: All tanks get on the back side of VS, hand him the fiery globe, to spawn spirit, then let the MA hand him scroll, give 7-10 secs for MA to gain aggro. Make sure he/she is runed and buffed before entering fight. Next, all melee join in from back side with non proc'ing weapons (MA must hold aggro at all times), non cleric priest classes heal MA with superior heals until CH from cleric hits, at 40% health, nukers blast away.
NOTE: If MA loses aggro, your entire group will most like be wiped out.

I believe we had around 15 people. None of them MB wizzies. 4 of the 15 were melee types. All of us were in the low to mid 50's in level. Only 1 death.

I have fought the VS spawned by giving the rez spell to VS Spirit twice, and he is much easier than the real VS. He does not lifetap, and you should be able to take him down with 2 well balanced groups. Neither time that I have fought him have we had a MB wizzie and noone has died from taking him down.
Assisted last night in wh00ping his boo-tay. All he dropped was the 2 stones and the blackened iksar bones. I wonder if his loot table is slightly on the fritz. Also, there were no adds in this fight.

Then you didn't fight the real VS you fought the spawned one for the ranger and druid epic. The spawned version only drops the stones and the bones.

Just wanted to save everyone out there some trouble. It looks as though they changed the triggered version of VS which pops after the druid/ranger turn-ins to VSR. We took two groups down last night to kill him and get the epic drops for me and a druid. Well, lemme tell ya, it was not pretty. Not only did we get 3 adds (ugh!!!!), but the triggered VS was doing the 1500hp lifetap. Now everything I have read says that he is not supposed to have it, so I'm guessing it got changed in one of the recent patches. Anyway, not being prepared for the lifetaps (or the adds) we got wiped. Now I gotta go buy another copy of the spell:Resurrection. Bah!

To my Knowledge, VSR has always been able to lifetap . . .
When you are ressed, you start with no mana and res-fx, right? VSR is ressed to VS . . . starts with little/no mana (it seems). The key is to kill him fast enough so that he does not lifetap again.
What makes me believe this is that every time we killed him, we killed him fast enough that he didnt lifetap. Those who don't kill him fast enough always get lifetapped.
A 54 MT does not show you had a force to kill him fast enough to lifetap.

Yes he has. We took 2 and a half groups down with me as MT ( 54 warrior) expecting a push over fight. We won with one death, but i ate life tap when he was at 68%,i kept agro through most of the fight. He was hitting for around 270 or so( got told 330 from the guy who died) over all he felt like a scaled down version of the real VS. Only took us 2 mins without MB, I was exicted thinking he would drop leggings but only 2 stones and blackened iskar bones dropped.

While trying to get my epic piece off VS, I read as many posts as I could find about him, and most of the info about his spawn rate has been contradictory, so I thought I would post this to help others out. It is based completely off my observation over a long period and MAY BE WRONG,if so, flame away. Venril Sathir is roughly a 3 day spawn, give or take a few hours. His spawn cycle has absolutely nothing to do with VSR. (I've seen some posts claiming that he pops after vsr went down, blah blah blah.) VSR is approximately 24 hour spawn, and turns into an easier version of VS when handed something from druid/ranger epic quest. This version WILL NOT drop VS loot, even though it says "venril sathir" above him, so dont be fooled and call out the cavalry. Hope this helps.

On TP last night i had a great group in RCY (everything else taken) when i looked up and saw Vs headed into our courtyard. I quickly yelled run to my group and shouted TRAIN VS TO ZONE.. Well people were sceptic at first(thought i was kdding) he harm touched our tank for 1500 and hits in the 300s. He had to use LOH to save himself. We all quickly zone, I circled back around to watch the carnage. When i got back in bodies everywhere and about 10 more adds on it. There were several people trying to kill him. I joined in to help as did my group. We were owning him, I was super buffed up and was backstabbing in the 400s on him and our pally was tanking him after the high level shm and warr zoned. Our pally zoned as he had about a half of blue of life left then VS turned on me and started beating the snot out of me. I used my counterattack disc as i backed toward the zone and ended up zoning with 15hp left. Which i got safe zoned back to the spires GRRRRR... my group had a ranger left who finished him off then another train came through with some dawgs and it was just a mad house of people running in and trying to loot him while the mobs were there. I know he droppped 2 stones cause 2 people in my group admitted to looting them, but no clue what else dropped. But i tell you what, even though i didnt get to loot anything it was a blast.

Can anyone please provide information on How often it spawns?
I see a week, but no confirmation. I am talking the real VS and not the VSR

It is 3 days. If you need further confirmation you can check the EMarr board under the Trak/VS rotation 3.0
There are about 13 guilds in the rotation for this mob with one pickup slot. Like I said... 3 days. :)

Guess ill just have to get him him to 51, put all my XP into AA Manaburn -- When I get it find another wizzie with it, then find VS and see if im doing a corpse run or not.
Manaburn is a level 59 AA...
