Drowned Citizens on land
# Apr 17 2005 at 8:42 AM Rating: Decent
I ventured though the FW Tunnel to get to over into the city in an effort to save time. I came across these little buggers in the pool and decided to avoid them until I did a little research. Ironically, as I was reading the posts below after they they swam/disappeared from the pool (I was thinking I was safe), and boom! around the corridor they walked and killed me. I only had time to see the slain message before I was returned to my PoK soul bind spot. Geez! Point is, they WALK as well - just not swimmers. I'm a 15 lvl Ranger, but of course, I wasn't paying attention either.
Looked like fun!

Came to the edge of the pool in FW tunnels, saw a few corpses and some flailing citizens. Didn't look like much to worry about (Excuse me! player corpses in there!!!). Anyway, I thought it looked like fun and maybe some free loot in there so I jumped in. (Yes, I said 'Jump', I mean completely by voluntary action!)I was lvl 11 Enchanter when I first met the drowned citizens, now I am level 10 Enchanter after many failed attempts to retrieve my corpse and stay alive. my corpse will decay forever in 2 days time and it looks like I'm gonna lose my lovely set of Art Keepers magic clothes! I hate these guys

here is my advice...stay in WFP until you get to level 5. then venture elsewhere. once you hit lev 15-20, get a group together and go hunt the drowned citizens. these drop some nice items that either you can sell, or one of your buddies could use...just follow the left wall until you reach the PoK book inside the secret entrance. from here, keep following the path until you reach the pool with the drowned citizens...(You probably shouldn't try this solo) <(^_^)>

These guys hit you with disease proc. Nasty when you're only level 13 rogue...I got cocky from the ease of hide+sneak past these guys. I ran freely and they jumped me - they're the equivalent of zombies and they aren't drowning coz they can swim around to the walk way ;-)

Oh and when the drowned citizen hit me for 12 he asked me for a copper piece. I was not feeling charitable at the time so I declined.

OK OK call me a cheap bugger. I am a Gnome SK after ALL :)

I had a 9th level SK Gnome. I got hit by one of these on the way out. I guess someone had fallen in and tried to run. I stumbled across his corpse and boom got hit. I ran out of the tunnels and thne noticed I was almost dead. I Guild called my buddy in WC and asked him to run over to get rid of disease for me. He took about 5 minutes to zone in. Meanwhile I was working on my bandage skill like a doctor in an emergency ward. I ran out of bandages and was resorting to using Lifetaps to keep health up. When my friend got to me he had to cast Counteract Disease twice on me.

I worked out the damage and it was 12 from the hit and 586 from the Disease DOT. OWWWIEEE. Can we say newbie killer.
West Freeport, secret entrances

Here's some advice, If your a NEWBIE starting off, and your wandering around West Freeport, I advise you NOT to follow the walls outside. There are 2 secret entrances.

1) Along the RIGHT side of the walls, lies the first secret entrance. You will see a Dark Elf named Toxidil, at the entrance of these "sewers", anyways, he wasn't KOS to me, but you should consider him before you approach him. Further down, lies a necromancer named Diana Proxbourne. Diana's about lvl 20 and she was KOS to me. Probably KOS to everyone. She's pretty strong... Killed me fast.

2) To the LEFT of the walls in West Freeport, lies a tunnel. BE CAREFUL, Don't go running in there with some friends because you will end up falling in a pool with Drowned Citizens, they are bout lvl 12-13 and they are numerous. They are also KOS to everyone (Depending on diety).

So keep this in mind and don't end up doing the mistakes I did with my lvl 4 monk.. I died in both of these situations.

Getting faction back
# Apr 10 2002 at 5:18 PM Rating: Default
I am a level 43 druid and was helping a guildmate with the Paladin quest. The one where you kill guard Jacsen. Well it got crazy and I cast a strength spell on guildie and didn't zone fast enough to not get bad faction. Now wherever I go in commons, Freeport etc, the guards give me that threatingly look. I need to get faction back and killing orcs will probably take too much time. The DF belts I don't think will work either. I cast wolf form on myself and after conning the guards, it still said that "Threatingly" con. What can I do?

Well, for one thing, i do with MY druid/brd/cleric/anything that has AE DD spells. (i really dont do this for faction, just fun) Go into Qeynos, Freeport, Crushbone, whatever, and train as many LOWLEVEL orcs, goblins, gnolls, anything that will give you good afction with Freeport as you can, and then, when you have enough, just cast an AE. Simple... oh, and i really wouldnt try this is Blackburrow, cause i did it with my druid, and had so many on me i got scared. (dunno why, either) i eventually got lost, and died.. but hy, he WAS only 25....

I found out about these guys the hard way - my rogue character fell in the cistern with these guys at level 6! Needless to say, she didn't last long. I was worried about corpse recovery until I guessed that "hide" and "sneak" might work underwater - ten minutes later I had everything back, because they sure do.

Those who worship "good" gods will be KOS to the dark elf Innoruuk-worshipper NPCs who are occasionally found in the sewers. If you're agnostic I don't think you're KOS to anybody down there, regardless of race.

Where'd they go? The pool they spawn in is empty (no water), at least on Bertoxx. Is this a time of game day thing? or is this busted?

My level 9 cleric was practicing divination with the sense undead spell at the West FP gate when he spun around to face the militia house. A YELLOW (level 10) citizen was sensed east-by-southeast from the gate. I hope this helps to generalize their location as well as verify that at least some of the citizens are level 10 MOBs. It also shows that they are characterized as Undead.

They should be Non Aggro, lower lvl, or Guards should attack
# Oct 19 2001 at 8:53 PM Rating: Default
Geez i think these things don't belong here. I mean a mob that Guards will not kill, is KOS, and is high enough to slaugher newbies..... that just isn't right! Make them Non KOS, have guards attack them, or at least lower their lvl. I am rather distressed to think that some players are pulling them all, then FD near guards so as to get every newbie killed, as i see some do from a prior post. Yes i know they loot something needed for a halfway decent Clr Dru foot item (which, btw i plan to GET for my lowbie druid hehe), but their newbie killing abilities are wayyyy wrong. If verant moniters these msg boards (do they??) plz see if u can't change these mobs.
Where they are...
# Oct 03 2001 at 1:26 PM Rating: Default
The only way to get to them that I know of is to use the secret tunnels underneath East Freeport. You run past the rogues and necros and Shadow Knight trainers and there is a zone into West Freeport. After a little ways there is a hole that takes you into the sewers. Be careful when the paths split to go right or you will jump off a cliff into a large pool with three of them. They were all green to my level 15 friend. I was 27 when hunting them for the Acolyte quest. There is a way into there from the West Freeport entrance to the sewers, but you have to jump off a cliff there too.

Check out the maps of Freeport at www.eqatlas.com They spawn in 2 different areas; the north tunnel pool, and the south tunnel pool. Just face toward the city, outside the gates, and follow the wall to the north or south (your choice). Eventually, you will fall through the wall into a tunnel. Follow that tunnel down until you reach the pool, and there you go.

Bad news for evil races
# Aug 24 2001 at 1:21 AM Rating: Default
I'm a DE necro, so I'm KOS. The only way to get around Freeport is through these tunnels.

Never having gone thru the tunnels, I merrily send my level 2 necro in. I see a pond with some dead guys in it... but I don't fall it. I continue the path, make a turn or so, and all of a sudden, out of nowhere, 4 drowned citizens attack me!!!
It took me about 20 minutes to get my corpse back, cuz they kept spawning out of nowhere and killing me (I ended up summoning my corpse from a corner where I could BARELY see the corpse, but they coudln't see me).

Any tips on how to get past these guys? I kinda wanna be able to navigate Freeport....
RE: Bad news for evil races
# Sep 02 2001 at 11:26 PM Rating: Default
I have a de necro (Innoruuk), unless you've done anything BIG to your faction, everyone in east and west fp cons dubiously. By the way, try the note quests in the rogue guild, I am indiff to the guards now and amiable with the merchants.
RE: Bad news for evil races
# Mar 15 2002 at 1:18 PM Rating: Default
You're not dubious to EVERYONE in East and West FP. That's a bit too general. You should be Dubious to the important stuff though. The guards, most importantly, are dubious to you as are the merchants. North Freeport is KoS to you, so is the Wizard's guild, and so are some other random people.

I'll give you a quick rundown on the Notes quest:

There are five real NPCs for the thief guild down in the tunnels of East Freeport. The one you'll be getting familiar with is the dark elf girl. Can't remember her name. I believe that they begin apprehensive to you. Talk to her about help, and mention that you "can" run to Janam and Rebby's. If you don't use "can" in your sentence, she won't.

The other person who can give you a note is the dwarf, Harkin, but don't bother. He won't give you the note until you are at least indifferent with him.

Take the note from the dark elf thief, and run to West Freeport from the zone entrance near the docks. It leads you right to Janam and Rebby. Be VERY careful. There's a "peasant woman" behind them and if you get too close, she will aggro you. The monks are across the river and not really that close, but still be careful. Give the note to Rebby, then take the whiskers back to the dark elf. Repeat.

After a while, your faction with the thieves should become indifferent. It doesn't take that long. Maybe like 10 notes. Then you can start doing both quests at once, and you'll notice your faction with the merchants improving almost as quickly, while the guards goes up a little slower.

Just make sure to always con NPCs in Freeport when you are passing them. Just cause the guards or others love you, doesn't mean everyone else will.

I have the same problem as you guys with the no-spawn citizen, I spent 2 hours sitting on the spawn spot last night but nothing comes up, I remember last time when I was there (2 months ago), I can see some drowned citizens wandering around. Just want to know what happens.
ps. I can find the greenblood zombie also, can anyone help me on that please?
RE: I think it is broken
# Jul 19 2001 at 5:40 PM Rating: Default
The Greenblood Zombie is a easy one. You need to go to Ferrott and head towards the river. Follow the river until you see a pilar laying across the water, not a bridge. He spawns in that area. Catch. If he doesn't spawn you have to kill some of his PH's which are swamp alligators, and Pirahnas. He will spawn. Did it two nights ago, however, didnt have to kill any Ph's he just came up on track and I killed him. Hope that helps you out
Spawn broken or is it triggered
# Jul 18 2001 at 10:14 AM Rating: Default
I just spent 9 hrs straight camping for these guys on the Mith Marr server. Also kept checking tracking in all that time. From the well in the sewers I could track the necro on the other side so I know I wouldn't have missed a spawn if it was on either sewer. Makes me think this is a triggered spawn or its broken. I petitioned and a GM did come check out all the freeport zones saying that this spawn/quest was 'fixed'. Heard that before when I did Grimrot for my cleric and spent two months waiting for a grimrot that would never show.

I have run into similar problems with this spawn lately as I have been camping it for several days. Before I knew about the Quest that requires the Waterlogged Flesh, I had past the drowned citizens many times, but now that I need them they are never there. Hmm ... someone in W FP suggested that they are a triggered spawn. If so soes anyone have any ideas or info on how to get them to spawn? Any help is greatly appreciated =)

# Jun 10 2001 at 2:20 AM Rating: Default
Never thought I'd be slaughtered by these guys at lvl 25, but I did. I was buffing and binding at the FP gate when somebody came up to me with the question if I could help him. Well, I'll try, what and where? He died in the sewers and needed me to drag his corpse. Oke, so I followed him into the wall, buffed him, stole his breath, invissed him after asking him if there were undead down there. No there weren't, he replied. Remember guys, this was the first time I've ever been in these sewers, so I believed him. The MINUTE I jumped in the pool I was jumped by 4 drowned citizens and AARGH!!! I had all my buffs memmed (hehe actually kind of funny come to think of it) so I tried to get them off me with my humble Runed Totem staff: I died.
Thank Tunare I'm in a very good guild where 4 of my guildmates (35+) came running to help me out, otherwise I'd still be lying down there...

Had this happen to me once when I was around level 7 or 8. I'm a Half-Elf Ranger from Surefall, and I didn't know the dead bodies I saw at the bottom weren't dead. I, like so many other newbies, fell victim to the horde. Luckily, when I went back I was able to summon my corpse from the very shallow part of the pool without all the drowned citizens noticing me. If you fall down in the pool and are too low level too kill these guys, try to swim towards the most shallow part of the pool. You may be able to summon your corpse out of the water and safely loot it.

# Apr 21 2001 at 11:24 AM Rating: Default
I also hate them now. I was playing a new character of mine, an ogre sk. I decided to train up in the FP SK guild. I headed thru the tunnels, No problem, trained...

OMW out I fell in the pool, they jumped me

so, I pretty much just layed down and died, being only lvl 5

no problem, except that I was bound in feerott. a guildmate agreed to help out, but as he got there, and tryed to clear them out, he realized that they were hiting him too fast to get a spell off. so he ended up gating about 5 seconds after I arrived to loot up, I only looted about half my gear before I got jumped and died again.

Then while zoning from feerott to innothule to go back the second time, I went LD. Grrr...

After re-logging in, I continued on my journey, the shammy who was helping me before decided to log, so I asked a lvl 40 monk to help out. he headed that way, and went in to look for my corpses, didn't see anything... and as I passed through North Ro, I got jumped by a Puma and a madman. Died again.

So. No experience loss, no problem, however, a RL friend of mine had lent me his gear off his warrior to get me started out. The 30 minute corpse timer really sucks. I lost over 10kpp worth of stuff. A Yak, a sludged girdle, almost a full suit of Ry'gorr Armor, not to mention about 2k in $$... Talk about a bad day. I quit EQ.

#Anonymous, Posted: Jun 24 2001 at 9:28 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Who ARE you talking to Milander? Besides yourself I guess. Maybe you're talking to that invisible friend of yours. Who called who a name? Mil, you OK bud? Maybe it's time you lay off the NyQuil a little eh? Don't know what bug died up your arse, but relax a little. It's a drowned citizen conversation, not a political debate. Please correctly direct your remarks appropriately... a.k.a.: make some sense!
#Anonymous, Posted: Jun 18 2001 at 9:33 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) look whos calling who a "tard". its kinda hard to train to a guard when they dont attack these beasties, they just wreak havoc on the newbie area till some high lv finaly steps in to clear them out
#Anonymous, Posted: May 23 2001 at 8:37 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) yeah.... you called him a "tard" isn't that callling names? and he didn't call anyone else a name, are you talking about where he says newbie killers?
#Anonymous, Posted: May 10 2001 at 2:26 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) I really dont see where he called anyone a name. He used the term newbie to decribe the bodies in the zone, but imho that is not offensive in most cases. Unless you thought he was talking about hating the ppl that train them to the guards...but if you read his post, he is talking about how he hates the mob :P. The only person I have seen calling anyone names is you Milander, not very pally like if you ask me
new pest!!!

These four undead are like skeletons and attack everything, like my 32 necromancer.
I found zombie skin, the above mentioned waterlogged flesh, rawhide armor and bronze weapons on them.
Their disease spell lasts very long.
They are really a bad surprise for example for a low level troll shadowknight, who goes to the guild to train and then falls into water.

They are aggresive to the point of stupidity like attacking a friends 54 wizzie. It was pretty funny to watch them get slaughtered.

I discovered these poor souls a couple of weeks ago. Since then, I've found their pattern. They spawn in fours at the bottom of the aforementioned pool. They drop rusty weapons, and about 50% of the time they carry a piece of Rawhide armor.

They also drop Waterlogged Flesh. This is a quest item. I'll not yet divulge the full details, but I will say it starts in a less-frequented area of Rivervale. Good luck.

at West FP gates, make a left (facing the gate with your back to EC) go into the fake wall in the corner and start walking, you'll come to a watery area, don't go in the water unless you want to fight them, they tend to gang up as soon as you fall in

they are not hard, just that there's a few of them (I had 3), they proc a disease based dot, they range slightly lower than 12-13, because I had a blue one at 11 (only con'd one)

oh, and they look like your standard poor human npc, messy hair, tattered clothes, etc. but they seemed to be in the dead postion when I saw them before they agro'd (didn't take a long look, could be wrong)

Yep. It's a four-pack spawn,and they spawn "dead" position then pop up as you get near. I then gleefully shredded the lot of em,being 30th. Evil races can get to em via the tunnel system-just take the zone-exit tunnel from EFP and then take the first sharp turn when the tunnel splits after you hit WFP underground.

They drop loot a lot like shrivelled mummies-I found rawhide boots on one,plus one had the waterlogged flesh. If you've seen desert madmen,you know the NPC model. Nothing different from that.
#Anonymous, Posted: Jan 17 2001 at 7:56 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) some retard trained about 10 of these to the gate in freeport, and since the guards don't touch them, they were running around killing all the newbies in one hit. it was downright hilarious. until one of them hit me. and then they all had to die.
#Anonymous, Posted: Jan 18 2001 at 4:45 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Um, I didn't find it so funny! I had just turned in a deathfast belt at the milita house which lvl'd me to 12! Right after I hear my DING I get hit. There were 3 of them on me, and I was so shocked and stunned I kept going through the wrong door to get out. I finally got killed outside, and lost my lvl. Hmmmm, now that I'm reading this, I guess it is pretty funny ;P

no there are not rare they dwell in the underground part of West Freeport if you pass the little ledge you can see then lying in the water.
when you go down the hall go strait don't turn when you do they are there and in massive numbers
and they can RIP the head off anyone lvl 5 and below
Sorry

If this occured on torvonillus, it was me. Really sorry. I took them to gaurds and kept running, didn't realize they wouldn't be killed by the guards. I had just found them as well, must be relatively new. They spawn in the resevoir down the tunnel to the right of the gate (facing the gate.) They conned blue to my lvl 12 wizard so they must be 11 or lower. Four of them spawn and they all aggro at once. I paid the price for my crime, the disease they give "just called Disease" is pretty bad, seems worse than normal. I lost two bubbles to it while i was sitting down, my last two bubbles. Again, really sorry, i hate losing levels.

I had some indication that the tunnels under Freeport might no longer be safe, after having been surprised by a necromancer, spectre, and necro's pet in the aqueducts under Qeynos. You see, I was in Qeynos to slay a certain dwarf. We fought at the docks, he called Bruno the bouncer on me. I dived into the water and zoned to the aqueducts. Ok, no worries here. I just zoned back and what do you know, that dwarf hadn't forgotten about our recent argument. Here came Bruno again, and again I zoned. I decided to cross to N. qeynos to avoid this problem.
I am pretty familiar with this route. I saw a necro's pet before I hit its aggro zone- i turned around and saw a spectre headed my way. Back into the water and around a corner, you guessed it, the necro himself.

So, did I mention that I was still bound in E Freeport? (I am a lazy shaman at times, I figured I would gate and hop a boat after harvesting Trumpy's head.) Hey, I was still scratching my head, wondering were those necros and spectres came from. I headed to the catacombs before i realized, wrong city, (I have a 60 INT). Ok, I am here, I can get to W. Freeport and make my run from there. No Problem. Came upon the pool near the W. Freeport exit near the gate, when i heard a splash, "some null wit has fallen into the pool" I think to myself. They are thrashing about alot, "newbie."Must have a low swim score. Then a drowned citizen lands a hefty strike to my back. With my SoW and Sob buffs, I barely made it back to the E Freeport zone. I decided it was shorter to go through N. Ro to get back to Qeynos.

I managed to cross Kith and Highpass with most of my skin intact. I thought I was home free running down the gorge with my nice SoW et al. "Hey, who was that guy casting a spell in that tower i just passed? I don't remember seeing him before." A bandit caster started zapping me and gave chase. I made it tho the Plains by running down into the gorge and up the other side and down again. Ok, the bandit is still after me, but i think i am going to make it... just need to swerve around those lions... smack into a couple of dark stalkers.

Don't worry. You aren't the first person to panic when it comes to things like that. At least now I know where to go to get my revenge on those "drowned citizens" . Revenge is one of the greatest things about EQ. I'll always remember the first time I killed Dorn, my first madman, mummy......etc. Dying is part of the game I'm used to it.. I was just shocked there were other MOBs in West Freeport besides fire beatles and bats! I'll have fun going down to the sewers with some friends, seeking them out and killing them!
