70 Ogre Warrior with 320 AA, couldnt do it with a cleric merc. Although merc was at 30% mana when he popped right atop me in the hidden passage way at the back.
Been in here for days just trying to get my Claw of Veeshan faction high enough to do the "summon throwing axe bracer clicky quest"

78 SK ...Statue wru?

78 SK and I have been soloing this guy his last four or so spawns on Bertox. I can never find a statue of rallos zek before or afterward. I am pretty confident I know its spawn location. Killing Vindi doesn't seem to do anything other than well, make Vindi dead. Am I doing something wrong, or does his death NOT spawn the statue? I've heard it does and does not.

Regardless, pretty nice being able to solo this guy after he kicked my butt several times on raids when I was a wee little knight of darkness wet behind the ears.

Got him to 35% before cleric merc ran out of mana and I died just now. Never raided Kael so this was my first encounter with any of the "raid" mobs. Didn't know that he spawned 2 temple guardians right at the start so that kind of caught me off guard. Killed them both then went back to Vindy. He wasn't taking me down too quick but my DPS isn't the greatest so it took me a couple minutes to kill the two guardians so cleric was already down some mana by the time I started on Vindicator. Cleric merc went OOM when Vindy was at about 40% and I got him to 35ish % before I died. With merc/self buffs Monk is about 14khp 2.4k AC with almost 200AA. CA/CS is 6/5

Downed by a 75 cleric, 300 aa, 14k HP 12k Mana 2.3k AC Buffed.
Took him and his 2 guards at the same time, guards ended up dying to Ward.
Ward/VoV FTW.

I have also killed Vindi solo on a 76 Shammy, 1133 aa, 16k HP 14k Mana 2.6k AC Buffed.
Also tanked the 2 guards, just panther and lassitude with pet out.


Grats to my level 1 warrior Naggy/Vox killer on chestplate.

Got him tonight. 80 bst, 617 aa's, demi geared, with self buffs. Had pet tank it while I dealt with the 2 guards. Kept using promised mending 2 and focused paragon on myself. After guards were down, I'd go in, hit def disc, fight him til disc wore off, then back up and heal myself and pet til disc repopped. Rinsed and repeated several times, took about 15 minutes. Ended up with about 15m when he died. Parsed him at 290k hp's.

Killed Vindi today, solo (although raid buffed): 21500 HP, 2867 AC Monk with Brumals Fists of Whirling Sleet and "Epic 2.5" and suitable +dmg augs. Naturally I have Block V (but no Block mod) and way over cap on Avoidance and Accuracy.

Just aggroed him and his two guards. Killed one guard, FD, regain HP etc. Killed the other guard, FD, regain HP etc.

Pulled Vindi. Started with Riposte disc which didnt really do much, since vindi hardly managed to land a hit. Clicked epic for a quick 5K heal when it was needed, used Innerflame, used Heal over Time potion when it was needed, used Heel of Kanji and soon enough Vindi lay slain before me. Didnt need to use Scaledfists disc, nor did I need to use Mend.

Funny to see "this is a raid encounter"-mobs die so easily. Old world ftw. :)

We've been killing Vindi regularly to try and key all our toons for ST. In the five times we've killed him the Talisman has dropped once. This may be a fairly rare drop off of Vindi.

The head and heart always drop.
The Breastplate has dropped 3 times.
The earring once.

I love the old school mobs.

Just downed him 10 minutes ago 3boxing.

75 Warrior - 700 aa's - 18k hp 3200 ac with Tenacity
70 Rogue - 250 aa's - 10k hp 2000 ac with Conviction
67 Cleric - 105 aa's - 6500 mana pool (Which didn't matter)

Anyways, I ignored Vindi's 2 guards and just downed him asap since the guards are weak, rogue took ramp like it was nothing. My rogue used 2 HoT pots during the fight from ramp. Cleric only CHed maybe 7-8 times. Vindi died within 4-5 minutes after I burned discs the whole time. Cleric ended with 85m, was watching tv and blew a couple fast heals on the rogue not paying attention to ramp otherwise I might have ended with Full mana.

Fight was a lot easier then I thought, HoT potions weren't neccessary on the rogue, could have just had cleric HoT him. Hardest hit was 400ish on the warrior.

Got the boots on a twink alt sk =]

I just did Velk, King T and Vindi within an hour 3boxing 70 Ranger, 70 Shaman, 61 cleric. All had Aego, Shaman Line, and Ranger line. took me about 3-5minutes for each fight, Sadly I can say they are quite easy. Max Hit from Velk was only 257, Vindi I got hit for 789 once, but most were below 300, and King T Max I was hit for was 498. Ranger who was Tank for Velk & Vindi sits at 11.3k hp, 1989 ac, 2459 atk. with thoughs buffs.
Shaman Had 10.4khp, 1895ac, 9798mana. & Cleric who was just basicly an innocent bystander only has 6.9kmana 8khp with thoughs buffs. for Velk I just did the normal kill mobs in near by areas, charge him and his guards and slaughter. (Could'nt land spells unless right under him) Must be belly caster like dragons) Vindi, I cleared the Giants near WL Zoneline then went and hit vindi with Immolate and headed for WL zoneline, when I got close I turn around and snared Vindi zoned out, zoned back in guards gone, Vindi still hanging out. Landed Balance of Discord with shaman 3rd cast. Killed him, very easy kill. Now, King T he was a different story. I had to pet pull him away from his guards, he would'nt stay at zone line for me. after pet pulled, I decided to tank with the Shaman and click TS with ranger + Shaman's 1.5 + Auspice and Ferine Avatar = Make me kill alot faster. Over all, these all raid mobs are not doing to well. I think we need a revamp. I just called for the people in zones for all loot, except for the ST Keys which are what I was after and got 3 of, I had key on Ranger, and Gave the 3rd to my cousin's bard in which I was keying for as so she could go get a dwarf mask. Good Luck to anyone looking for a challenge, I'm off to find a real one.

First, Vindicator is immune to runspeed changes, so you didn't snare him and zone out. Second, even if you had manged to train Vindi and his two temple guards to the zoneline, the guards don't leave his side so you wouldn't have found them 'gone' as you claim. Further, your claim to "solo" Tormax and require nothing more than a single heal potion is just bullsh*t. My favorite part of your mass of lies is how you 'got a couple upgrades' in five days time that raised your HPs by 2000 and your AC up over 500 points ~ lmao

I'm sure you impress yourself with these types of posts, and thats all that counts, right ?

K, last I checked, Vindi is immune to changes in runspeed and according to some posts below, immune to slow. Maybe this is just on the BB server or they nerfed that lately?

I know its been done before by rangers. but i think they all had Steadfast Servant. granted, my kill waz after TSS came out but i dont have a SS yet. dont even have my jester yet >.<

What i did waz i cleared from Vindi all the way to WL Zone. i pulled vindi and kited him around till i got his adds rooted and AA snared ( 10 minute snare ). then drug vindi down to the WL zone and proceded to burn him as hard as i could and killed him just before the adds got to me. took bout 3 minutes. i used only self buffs for this also. and potions

75 Ranger, 1200aas, 14khp, 2650ac, 168ds. Improved Dodge and Pary 4.

waz a fun fight. i had duoed hiim before with a rogue, but never soloed. sadly i can never catch SoRZ up >.<

I as a 75Cleric can solo "Derakor the Vindicator" and have 5 times so far for faction to Dain.
If you just kill stuff in front of Temple, all guards and protectoers then make sure all buffs are good and med to full (if you need). Wen Derakor the Vindicator comes closest to you at end of walk way use MoM and MoR to pull him to you (extra dps for cleric :p). If your wise to your buffs and know how to set them to best use as malee you start casting DR when ever needed and let VoW do the healing from there.

Can do statue and Idol same way if you pace your self. Last time I did Vindi I used about 25% of my mana, took about 7min for me to kill. Can not use pets as he will kill them rather fast and waste your mana and dps to get another one up. His guards are easy to take out at the time your dealing with Vendi.

The one I am concerned is AoW, with some one there to slow AoW I might be able to kill him also but not tryed as of yet. Just wish I knes total HP's, pet hammers are more than likely not going to work as with any named giant in Kael.

with those 4 people makeup you should be able to kill him easily. The 2 guards are seriously nothing once u get them slowed. Just be careful you might run lom from all the healing. And try to make sure you dont get your shaman on the rampage of vindi.

Vindi pull
# Oct 01 2005 at 6:56 PM Rating: Decent
3 posts
I attempted Vindi last night with 3, for kicks. 67 Pally / Cleric (9.3k hp and 6.4k mana respectively & Two boxed) and a pretty well time geared 70 Beastlord.

The pull was the easiest part. Cleared the majority of the Arena (including and especially around the ice wall). Pally ran in, cast Desist (no damage stun) on Vindi, and ran around ice wall while BST picked off the pets. Because Vindi was agroed with a stun, the Pally had a good amount of agro but couldn't be summoned. Pally didn't even have sow, just Run 3 and was able to easily outrun Vindi.

Also found out 9.4k 67 pally can't tank Vindi with a single cleric healing ;-).

I'm surprised that those 3 couldn't take him down, because Vindi was just recently solo'ed by a lvl 70 Ranger.

None of his 3 chars mentioned were a Ranger. I doubt he had the courage to create one or the skill to play one.

Everyone knows Rangers are the best. This is one of the reasons there are so many jokes about us....as it is common for peeps to insult/make fun of, what they don't understand.

I recall long ago, when vindi required a raid force, where the main tank required a good ch chain and other tanks would shoot arrows to try and lock down ramp as the giant was on his way to where we would usually kill him. I remember when the people on rampage died and it went to healers, that wasnt good!

Only a few days ago (the day before the dodh patch), I sucessfully managed to solo kill the giant, the fight taking 11 minutes 25 seconds from the first attack round. Derakor slain by a cleric, it's still hard to believe. Just crazy what mudflation can enable people to do ><

Went pretty smoothly.. all things considered. Went down on CT server along with AoW. I Boxed the (70) Warrior, (70) Enchanter, my RL GF boxed two (70) clerics, and (70) Wizard..although between healing the wizard didn't contribute much. Along w/the above mentioned we were accompanied by (70) Rogue, (70) Shaman, (70) Ranger all of which played there own toons. So in all we had 3 peeps playing regularly and 2 boxing the rest... giving us a total of eight, minus the wizzy's dps..so really 7.

Also...have to give credit where credit is due.. couldn't have done it w/out http://illusionofapathy.net . So Thx guys =)

Went flawless...first Vindi, statue was down..so we went straight to Idol, then AoW..who btw dropped 3 BoC's and Ring of Destruction. What a night!

Hi all

We did Vindi the other day. Our 1st try with 3 people wiped. We had a ranger, a pal and a cleric.
Then for a 2nd try we got some help. A enc, a 2nd ranger and a botted cleric (by the 2nd rng).

Cleared whole arena. 2nd Ranger pulled Vindi, me (1st rng) and paladin taged a guard each on incomming while the other ranger kited vindi in the arena. We killed guards then he brough back vindi and we took him out.

From the parsing with Yalp i get this data from Vindi:

DPS: 467
Max Hit: 692
Avg Hit: 396
Min Hit: 109
Fight Time: 5:06 min

I tanked, had about 11k hp with all defensive aa enabled, but no shielding at all.
1 cleric kept up heal over time on me and covered the paladin who was ramp tank the other cleric chealed me at 80%.

Hope it helps guys. Was a fun and exciting fight.

Regardst to all

Hi all

We did Vindi the other day. Our 1st try with 3 people wiped. We had a ranger, a pal and a cleric.
Then for a 2nd try we got some help. A enc, a 2nd ranger and a botted cleric (by the 2nd rng).

Cleared whole arena. 2nd Ranger pulled Vindi, me (1st rng) and paladin taged a guard each on incomming while the other ranger kited vindi in the arena. We killed guards then he brough back vindi and we took him out.

From the parsing with Yalp i get this data from Vindi:

DPS: 467
Max Hit: 692
Avg Hit: 396
Min Hit: 109
Fight Time: 5:06 min

I tanked, had about 11k hp with all defensive aa enabled, but no shielding at all.
1 cleric kept up heal over time on me and covered the paladin who was ramp tank the other cleric chealed me at 80%.

Hope it helps guys. Was a fun and exciting fight.

Regardst to all

what a strat.....
a strat without estimated HPS max damage/resist etc.
I killed him many times already.
But there is something about your subject.
Vindi start for NEW NOOBS that makes me wanna shoot you.
You dont have to be a noob. to need strats for a mob.
And apprently you are a noob yourself if you call THAT a strat.
I so much hate people shouting noob at every occasion.

Lighten up. Pulling Vindi is almost harder than actually fighting him. Any tips/hints help when it comes to the pulling strategy and I encourage others who have hints to post them without fear of being flamed.

Faction or not?

Forgive the noob question

We hit Vindi last night, and I was using my 51 cleric and healing the main tank. I did NOT get a faction message despite casting a quick little nuke-wrath I think-on him. He did resist it, but was still surprised to not get a faction message.

Did I get faction, or did I screw up somewhere.
Aggro

Sorry should have added - Vindi guards are more like pets, as such can not be split they will always warp / arrive on raid when vindi's singled out. The only way to do vindi safely is to dispose of pets 1st.

Recommend aggro on vindi (no dmg so he doesn't summon) then kite him while kill off guards.

Vindi can be killed with few ppl these days, I killed it with my friend both of us 2 boxing (4 chars total) but the cleric quvic armored n pal has 11-12k hp's. If your not EP/time/Quvic armored still prolly need a few groups.

just an FYI, the guards are linked to his aggro, but not vice versa. Back when I actually killed him, I would tag him, pull him past the ice wall, and then gate him, fade off aggro and retag the pets. I never had agro transfer that way.

I would think that most pet classes could pet pull the guards singly.

Guards can not be charmed, I suggest DC from outside if your hp's aren't enough to deal with charm breaks with little risk to group (DC from arches are best). Otherwise my new favourite pet is Dlammaz Stormslayer (near tomax arch hits 600ish). Hasted he cuts down fight time on vindi but he's a bit magic resistant hence suggest mage/sham/druid debuffs (not slow that spoils the fun). Next time im upgrading to a sent tho with OoW charms out.

Pulling plans depend on what sort of pet if u want to use enc to pull monks probably better but ill talk about what i know... I find new strategy we use is to set up near icewall in arena, non vindi side obviously =) then get puller (enchanter) to tash n cripple (synapis spasm) vindi then basically run arround and arround the ice wall while making sure not to get hit n that pets not whacking on vindi as = summons = bad. When vindi's guards are down then use soothing words (monk i guess FD) n get tank to tuant off not using dps (hence pal better) n you have a vindi thats been crippled n debuffed from pull. Warning whoever circles vindi will be on rampage. Enc these days can prolly hold there own on rampage with runes. Ive used this ice wall (or circle arround the areana depending on raid dps vs repop time) with monk sk n now enc pulling. GL

Hi All. I am wondering if his two guards can be charmed?

My guild went with a couple groups and found it pretty difficult to split them. Finally, we just had the SK snare them and offtank them both while the others focused on vindi. The SK had around 7600hps+ unbuffed and around 1500atk. He sustained himself fine with lifetaps alone. I was the only warrior, 65 with only 6300ish hps unbuffed. Max hit was 400 with disc. The fight was at least 5 minutes or so as disc had about a minute left after we killed him.

By himself he's cake but the guards seemed to cause weird agro problems with vindi, he seemed to summon people who were attacking them. He was cake without the guards.

I am gonna try to solo Derakor with my 65 enchanter, it will most likely be suicide , but sometimes attempts make playing EQ more fun. I am gonna have a mage summon me pet items , gonna have a cleric cast Virtue at Kael zone in on me and my charmed pet, or closer to derakor actually so charm wont wear off on my way there. I am Going to chain cast rune of zeb on my charmed pet(s) , I know for sure I will go through many charmed pets. I havent ever actually raided this mob , but I have however been killed by him soloing the arena area. I am pretty positive that I will die =) But I like to see just how well I could do against him. I am still trying to figure out a way to aggro him alone without aggroing his henchmen. I am going to make sure I am very ready before I attempt this

You could always empty the arena of giants by using them to kill the guards~

Btw, vindi has a vast amount of HP...I would call you crazy for trying, but it would be neat if it could be done. Probably your best bet for a pet on vindi would be one of the protectors of zek in the temple, they seem to have more HP than the average arena mob.

Also, beware rampage. He hits for 700 quad, and is unslowable.

Hope this helps and good luck.

I soloed him with my 75 ranger. 14k/2500ac max def and offensive aa's with anguish armor. Hes an easy kill and his "guards" are laughable. But it was interesting and had to use aa wolf form and heal pots. Lotsa fun!

Derakor's Heart dropped today on Druzzil Ro, right after the patch with VP update. We are assuming it is part of the new VP quest

It was a statless no drop, magic, lore heart

Won the heart last night. When I casted Identify it said "Proof for Phara Dar". Phara Dar is the top dragon in Veeshans Peak, so I assume this is for a quest he gives.
faction?
# Jun 26 2004 at 1:40 PM Rating: Default
OK, I HAD max ally faction with all three Kael factions and I follow Rallos Zek. Why did Vindi kill me? And WHY did I drop to Warmly with Kromrif and Kromzek and dubious with Tormax after Vindi killed me? What happened? I was able to walk right up to Vindi before, and now I am KoS to him? What did SoE break this time?

RE: faction?
# Jun 30 2004 at 9:41 AM Rating: Default
To my knowledge, Vindi has always been KoS to all, similiar to the way North wing mobs in ToV are toward CoV-allied PC's.

No clue about the faction issues with other mobs, other than it's possible you received a faction hit for whatever reason and didn't realize it.

Well, using a monk to split his guards is almost impossible since that patch in April. We used a Necro to help FD and snare and the BST tagged the guardians off of the necro with slow. It seemed however that if you got agro even on the guardians that you had Vindi agro. With Vindi in Left Arena and my BST far right, tagging a guardian that had already been split from the others worked great, only when arena respawned and kiter got a ton of adds and went down, Vindi came for me, and I was with group finishing off guardian below the RA ramp.

And to confirm, as of date of this post, Vindi is "immune to changes in attack speed" PERIOD. We attempted him with 16 peeps (only ONE warrior, 3 clerics, 2 monks, 1 BST, no enchanter, 1 ranger (below lvl 55) and several others.) Our heal chain was awsome but we lacked FAST DPS so we only got him down to 25 percent before all but one of the Necro's went down. Not bad for a small "family" type guild where most peeps are still wearing Thurgadin quest gear or LDoN armor.

However, "WE SHALL PREVAIL"

Vindi and the TG's

Can not be snared, nor can he be slowed. Both will stick on the Temple Guardians. You can run Vindi around until the Temple Guardians are tagged and killed. If you have the tankage and the healers, then by all means have a group on each then focus on Vindi when the TG's are dead.
