As I was camping Stormfeather in Iceclad on Phinigel, I noticed a black cougar wandering around that I recalled from the comments section. It was Midnight. He was wandering just southwest of the three cougar spawn near the Stormfeather spawn point. Exact location was +5224, +1326, and he dropped the Bloody Cougar Bone. Now to decide if I want to complete the quest for the sake of nostalgia (and OCD).

Killed Midnight with my level 26 wizard and merc. Although he nearly took us out, I was in fact able to kill him and gained a major experience boost from this.
Ehh .... just be a bard

I was on one of my many alts on Jun 28, a 33 bard to be exact. Was AoEing cougars and saw this black one up so i decided to bring him into my kite of death. All the others fell and he was at about 35%. Just kept going with the kite and finished him off. Not too bad if you know how to kite well.

I've seen Midnight spawn a few times at completely seperate times and seperate islands, first time was me (then a 36 pally) and a 32 wiz killed him near then docks, latest time i was going to the pirates to get my alt her spell, and he popped on the island with the Snow gnolls. I was 57 this time so the fight was triv. He dropped the bloody cougar bone used for the Mighty Garou quest. No idea what the quest results in.

Not a chance. There, first of all, is no place to kite without getting serious adds. 35 mage and 39 pally combo wiped. I hope you have fun though Smiley: tongue

Tough fight
# Nov 11 2002 at 1:29 PM Rating: Default
I was soloing snow cougars yesterday by the gnome pirate igloos and midnight spawned. conned blue to my then 33 lvl ranger and thought why not try it, had full health and 80m. He resisted snare 4 times before I landed it, and he resisted fear animal quite a bit, making it tough to fear kite him. He took me to 32hp remaining before he finally went down. He kept hitting in the 50-60 range when not feared. He is very tough. Then, a minute later he spawned again. Learned my lesson and let him wander around for someone to
play with.

Midnight can spawn at any time of day. Saw him spawn at 9am gametime one day when hunting snow cougars. Have seen him during daylight hours and nighttime. He doesn't seem to have a set timer that I have noticed. When I killed him once, he respawned one minute later. I have seen it spawn and wander for quite a while, then not spawn again for EQ days. If I get bored while hunting snow cougars, I will try and time his spawns.
New drop from Midnight
# Aug 11 2002 at 12:49 PM Rating: Decent
I've recently killed Midnight and looted the bone along with a no drop, magic Medium Quality Cougarskin (looks like all the other cougarskins other than being magic and nodrop). Hope this starts a new series of posts that leads to quest information.

Not a new drop, hehe. All cougars have a chance of dropping this. Go to the quest page and you'll see what it's for (I forget offhand).

Midnight was near the gnome igloo camp. Conned blue to me @ 34. After trying Ensnare THREE times, it finally stuck.

Soon to find out, while ensnared, he is still quite fast!

Levitated over to the adjacent iceburg island across from the gnome camp and kited him around.

A 34 druid w/221 wis (and +50 MANA from other items) I soon found myself OOM by the time that stupid cat was dead.

He doubled for 71s on me and seemed to be quite fast!

Added up my total nukes, he has around 1700HP.

Midnight just kicked the living crap out of me at level 35. Doubled for 71 quite often, took very little damage from a duel weilding, double attacking, 158 STR Ranger. I couldn't get a single freakin spell in, couldn't hit him for crap, my attacks kept getting dodged, what complete B.S.

Also, these cougars have no attack pattern whatsoever, so don't even attempt to time spells in between hits, it wont work.

And before I get bashed for not using panic animal, I didn't want any adds.
Waste of time

Camp Firbrand the black in Rygorr ez as pie to pull him from outside the building he is in.
Invise up, run into fort, target him, run out side against wall of compound (not fort), cast snare (druid) he will come and not bring his friends ( line of site thing ) Drops gauntlets of the black as a common and dark ember 5 wis some str and some mana which makes this better mana wise then garou, procs a stinking 14pt DD. pops around every 20minutes him or blacksmith (ph)my 40 druid got one in a 6 hour session and like 10 gloves which can be easily sold if your on a live server. also sweet exp to be sure at 40.

I Battled Midnight at Level 31...

Being an Iksar Shadowknight, I had only ventured to Ice Clad once before. I'd always stayed at home in Kunark. Well, on this occasion I was in the Gnome Igloo camp near the docks, soloing snow cougars, when I saw a dark figure walking through the snow. Midnight conned yellow to me, but was all alone. Since I'd not seen him (her?) before, and saw a name above his head, I felt that he had to be of at least SOME importance. Now, at level 31, the snow cougars conning BLUE to me give me a tough fight. I knew that Midnight would either kill me, or (if I were VERY lucky) would leave me with hit points in the single digits! I decided I had nothing to lose except half a bubble of experience. So I summoned a pet and went to fight Midnight. When I got to the tree where I'd seen him, I looked around and couldn't find him. I couldn't understand until I turned around and witnessed him make short work of my minion and dart towards me! I immediately began swinging and bashing for all I was worth, but Midnight was hitting me pretty hard; at least a lot harder than I could hit him! And he resisted all of my attempts to cast Darkness and Fear on him. Fortunately, he went through a long series of misses that allowed me to even the score a bit by hitting, bashing, and Lifetapping him. We went blow for blow awhile until I noticed I had only two bubbles of hp's. I decided that was my cue to pull out all the stops and Harm Touch him for 311hp's. It worked.... but it didn't get him low enough to start fleeing! We continued at it until I stunned him by bashing him and my last Lifetap caused him to run. hehehe Lucky for me, because that Lifetap left me with about 50hp's and NO MORE MANA. I kept swinging, screaming for the cat to fall, but he's a strong one even when he's running for his life! Finally I delivered the crushing blow and Midnight fell dead. My heart was beating VERY hard by now, and I finally took a deep breath, happy that I survived Midnight's fury. When I looted his corpse, I got a no drop Bloody Cougar Bone and a no drop Medium Quality Magical Cougar Pelt. When I looked up, I noticed a snow cougar walking right next to me! I was hoping this would be one of those rare occasions where a MOB walks by and doesn't attack. NOT SO! He attacked and dropped me VERY quick, but it was ok, because I was bound nearby and just went back, looted my body and headed home to Kunark!
