was trying to faction in The Warrens on my 44 warrior today... decided I'd kick the crap outta the skelly in hopes he would drop the key... long story short, after about 15 seconds of fighting, I had done 2% to him, he had done about 25% to me... max hit was 113 with 978-ish ac... bastage chased me too, so i'm thinking they updated him...
Yeaahhhh...

Can anyone tell me how to gain faction with Guard heridion. I want to go to the hole. Heard my 51 Mage could make good exp there. I have killed over 100 kobolds in the hope that would help, but he still wants to attack me. Would appreciate any help.
Hmmm,,,

Hmmm... I had a pretty decent post jam packed with information on this guy. Mispelled a few things so I went to edit. You guys should relable the "edit" button to say "wipe post" If a mod sees this feel free to delete it.

I'm a 57 ranger and wen to stonebrunt a lot in my youth and passed that guard each time. Often i'd hit him a couple of times and run knowing neither of us would die.

This time i had a little more determination, and a KEI so thought i'd try him properly.

Took about ten minutes of attack, heal, repeat, but i did eventually down him. Was made much easier as at 50% he runs so i just chased and hit him while he did laps of the garden.

bronze weapon and a kite shield. factions were:

Heretics lowered
Deep Water Knights raised
Gate Callers raised
Craft Keeper raised
Crimson Hands raised


Glad i did it, but totally useless! I estimate the guy has 20-50k hp
Hah! He Died!

Hehe... My wife's High level druid and I (a 9 Ikky Shammy) were going to the Warrens for some faction farming...

We saw Heridon (and /rude'd him, just like always).... then we got the bright idea to try to kill him.

It took forever and a freakin day.. Resist after resist (from the druid dots), and I was chain wasting my ice spell (Hit fr a max of 4 on my highest strike WOOT!)

Long story short... 20 mins later, we go loot Heridon's corpse..

Our prize?
A Kite Shield.
Just your basic, every day, run of the mill, 40 per vendor, Kite Shield.....
And, of course... Bragging rights like you would not believe.

Want to sell Kite Shield. 10K. PST if itnerested :)
Why Run?

The other day i was here waiting for a raid to the hole to get together, and i saw this guy. I was bored so i threw a snare at him he resisted it but he didnt move?so i started pumpin arrows at him.A 53 mage came up and siced his pet on it ,BAM pet dies so the mage makes a different pet ,it lasts a little longer but it to dies.3 pets later and a load of good arrow hits later it is only down 1 buble of health.I did over 3500 hp of damage to it my self and who knows what the mage nuked it for and his pets did.Interesting thing is though he never moved so why run?
Kinda tough

This little baddie is a bit of an undercon. I tried soloing the light blue buggar at level 16, just barely killed him and his Mudawaka whatever friend. The loot was all whacked tho, little crap sword and shield that sold for like 3pp each. Even still, that guy can hit pretty hard with em.

Feoren
Level 16 Bard, Lanys T'Vyl

P.S. The soloing part may have been a little fibbed . . . I had just a bit of help from 7 full groups of level 55+ . . . and the victory part may have been fibbed a little, we didn't actually win. I'll bet they have crappy loot though!

P.P.S. I made the whole goddamn story up. I'm just pissed at this guy cause he killed me on my way to the Warrens

P.P.P.S The answer is 17, because footballs don't have feathers either.
Some info about this guy

For any of you that haven't figured it out yet, Verant lowered their lvl to around 10 so high lvl players could not camp him for exp. They also twinked him as a deturant for anybody seeking revenge on him. He's there to protect the low lvl players, not to provide exp for the high lvl players.

But for thoes wishing to make it past these guards to get to the hole or the warrens, get any invis or camo (you don't need invis vs undead) and run through the center of the cave entrance. He has a very small argo range. I have done this several times now and have yet to be attacked with camo on.

One final note. I am not sure how camo and invis works, but after a druid had cast camo on my wizard, he went from scowling at me to being indifferent (just to return to scowling when i became invisible again :( ). Is it this faction change that allows the safe travel since he (or at least standard skeles) can see through camo?

I saw a high lvl kill both guards. he was like lvl 48 monk. well, there was newbie runnnning for the guards (poor guy) he went NO GUARDS!!! i kinda laughed when he typed /em puzzled. then he kept running, luckily got on the elevator and sent it up before his frined got on it with him.

Must be a bug, saw the guy with two NICE swords, and conned way green to my 26 ranger. So I said to myself "my lucky day". I decide to try to snare the guy: resisted. Ignite: resisted. I raise an eybrow at this point. my snare often sticks even on red's. hmm. /shrug. so i go out to take this guy man to bone-bad. he meets me with a friendly tri-hit of 137, bashes me for 30, and follows it up with another 137 (just for good mesure. I think "WTF?????" and run my @$$ off to the warrens, if he didn't miss that last shot and i didn't have sow, I woulda been a pile of Elf puree. Woah. so either there's a problem with the con, or....he hit's really really hard. I'm wondering, has anyone been able to root and nuke? maybe his defence and offence r way up, but he still has the hp of a 10. would be cool if i could get a wizzy friend of mine to come and fix 'im good.

i was warned when my 17 monk went to paineel and tried to attack this guard and he was green and i was told he hits for alot but i thought my monk would have a chance so i killed noclin and then got healed then i went and attack him and he hit me for 147 74 135 and then i took off running to the warrens and made it there not stopping to see if he was after me and i only hit him for 15 15.

Heridion's partner

His partner's name is Guard Menbuknar, and I'd imagine he's just as dangerous.

no way is this guy tenth level

Well, I went into the Paineel newbie zone the other day, and this guy and his partner conned green to me, a 23rd level dwarf paladin.

I killed a Heretic NPC, Noclin Saah, right in front of these guards, and they didn't move a bone. :-)

Then, I decided what the heck let's attack Heridion. So I did, and 5 blows of roughly 137 damage each later, I was dead. In under 5 seconds! I didn't even have the time to hit my Lay Hands hotkey and get the hell out of there.

To say that this is a mis-con of massive magnitude is an understatement.

I petitioned about this, and got the usual "because we can't verify this we can't help you" runaround.

Just to warn anyone out there...

rofl!!
The whole point of that was for high lvls to stop attacking the guards in Paineel. And now that the Warrens is up and running, more and more high lvls feel it is fun to knock off guards, while the newbies are getting killed left and right with no help from guards, why? cause the high lvls killed them off.

Some lvl 25 shammy tried to attack this guy, and the rest of the zone laughed as he died. ;)

For high lvls: Quit killing the guards!! There is a place called Velious if you wanna kill high lvls for exp.
didnt even attack him
# May 15 2001 at 12:19 PM Rating: Decent
There really is a problem in this zone. I went there last night to help a friend that got killed by this guard, she is a lvl 22 shammy barbarian and she told me she didnt even try to attack him. She was just running through to get to the warrens zone and that was not her first time! With no reason this guard jumped on her and within 4 hits that was it. I came, conned him, green to me (32 pally) and indifferent to me, passed him, dragged the shammy corpse and it was done.
Later on, while I was there, I wanted to go and see the warrens just being curious and boom several 137 dmg hits later I was feeding the worms. With my invis vs undead I dragged my corpse and I conned him again, green but ready to attack. Then using my invis vs dead I decided to go back to warrens to try to raise my faction killing some kobolds but as I was going towards warrens zone a necro and his pet attacked me and this one conned blue to me. Losing my invis the guard came to give him a hand and I barely made it to zone with less than 20Hp left, LH used of course. Once in warrens and after medding up, I killed some kobold, waited for my LH to come back and crossed paineel conning the guard who was back to indifferent to me and didnt attacked me this time.
So next time you see a higher level than you getting killed by a guard in this zone, just dont laugh but try to figure out what happened first and you will probably get some good advices for the days to come.
