In Old Sebilis (Level 105 Revamp):

There are 3 a sepsis scarabs located in the tunnel leading to the locked door that eventually leads to the crypt (middle bridge). The northmost two sepsis scarabs are confirmed phs for the necrosis scarab. I had it spawn from the middle and north scarab back to back in the same round. So remember to space your scarab kills so not to lose the spawn chance...

Spawn rate

This guy has a really low spawn rate. I've had him spawn 7 times out of 25+ spawn cleans so over 75 scarabs which makes him a sub 10% spawn rate. I've seen him spawn in the place of all 3 sepsis scarabs. Never seen 2 up at the same time but with a ~9% spawn rate it is unlikely so it doesn't mean much.

Out of the 7 kills I got 3 canes and 3 JB vambraces and one short sword.The vambraces sell for 300+ PP as vendor trash in POK so that's pretty cool but they're lore. The short sword seems to be the rare drop.

They're a great sebilis starter camp. The first 2 scarabs pull as a duo (you only see one when you get there) and the last one is by himself. Decent exp from 51 to 55 as crap gear shaman with an apprentice merc. Coupled with the sebilis guardian and the frogs close to the exit building you can stay pretty busy. Got an adamantite bo stick and a runebranded girdle from the krups frogs and you get a lot of gems/spells that vendor well.

You can also camp out by the rampart/wall close to the beetles if you're ready to deal with a wandering froglok knight/shaman/wizard upon log in, which should be no problem if you can defeat the scarabs.

a necrosis scarab sounds like it would spawn in various locations from the older posts below. I can confirm that I killed one at location -540, 273, -19 which was a spot with 3 scarabs on a hill to the side of the hallway.

For me it dropped the crystalline short sword.

I killed the sepsis scarab placeholders 17 times to get the necrosis scarab to spawn. He dropped the Cane of the Tranquil for me. EQ Magelo provides a good pictorial of the spawn site (approximately n580, p290, but the picture is better than the /loc). This is the same spot Snailish described. The spawn time was 24, 25 minutes, plus or minus.

Soloing

Soloing is very fun here. I would advise to be 60, but many classes can easily take these. The best thing about soloing these? You get ALL the loot!!! =)

data

Ok, some useful data. These ALWAYS drop some good loot, sometimes more than one item (had one drop 2 BD). They seem to agrro most on the lowest ac (hard to peel off my rogue). When breaking the Guard camp, whack the froggies first, then go after the bugs. There are 3 of em and they all will come when pulled, so you need to have a chanter or super-rooter to control adds. Lots of hps, not too many resists, hit for low hundreds soemtimes.

No they won't.

To pull bugs simply root the one closest to you, this will cause the middle scarab to come. Keep first bug rooted while you kill the middle one and the third will be all by itself.

I can't single pull this camp, and this is how I break Nec while soloing.
