The Avatar of War  

Raid Encounter
Screenshot

Uploaded July 24th, 2007

In Kael Drakkel: The Avatar of War spawns in the arena after the death of The Idol of Rallos Zek. It hits for a max 1,154; flurries; has ~900,000 hitpoints; and is a humanoid mob. It's highly resistant to fire, but weak to ice and magic. It has a 7-day respawn timer.

In Kael Drakkel, the King's Madness: Spawns after The Idol of Rallos Zek dies. It AE rampages; its "Devastation of Rallos" hits everyone on its hate list. Reportedly, The Avatar of War despawns after having been up for 20 minutes regardless of whether it is aggro (The Avatar of War is the final mob in a three-named ring that starts with The Statue of Rallos Zek.)

I'm not one to waste time on mobs I can't get exp killing, but I still love beating the crap out of this guy. Hit him for 389K+ twice w/ disc, 283k and a few other melee hits in between..blam dead..took about 21 secs from first hit to death (partially do to lag) tonight..dropped BoC, Bow, Flayed Barb Legs, and Helm for me. nice lil bonus to end the night b4 RoF drops on us..Hey maybe with the new expansion coming out in a few hrs I'll get to kill him twice in 2 days, that is if Statue pops with server reset. Gonna guess his hps were around 900k or so...I was still hitting him with arrows after he was dead from the 3rd HS lol.

AoW can be assassinated if rogue's anatomy aa is high enough. Made for a real quick kill combined with frenzied stabbing.

For my 82 monk the fight lasted about 25 minutes. You'll probably need a healer merc, as I very much did. It was above 90% mana for most of the fight, but chain casting Promised Restoration Rk. II.

Be careful not to push him up out of the arena. I got about 10 adds that i decided to dispatch to avoid them healing him.

Gotcha. Thanks for the info. And believe me, I had NO intention of trying the fabled version lol! He'd probably bend me over and, well...you know how that goes. Im only Defiant geared with a few random decent pieces so im really nothing special yet, but I was just looking for some places/mobs to try to find some good newb gear for a baby wizzy i started.

Would say that would depend on what other peep you were duoing with. If just you and a merc, at lvl 76 and 300 AA's, I would say that you are using a lower tier merc (just a guess, no insult intended) and that merc would likely run out of mana before you could kill him. He doesn't hit hard at all anymore, but still has a nice lil chunk of HP for his lvl versus yours. I can say one thing for d*mn sure, dont try the fabled version solo. I am a tower+ geared warrior (43k hp, 5.9k ac unbuffed) with 3k+ AA's and my wife plays a ranger similarly geared. Ran across fabled spawn cycle of AoW the other day and it took us FOREVER to kill fabled AoW, hehe. I don't run a parser, so no dps info, but it took a long while to kill the entire fabled spawn cycle (SoRZ, IoRZ, AoW) with 2 toons and 2 mercs.

I have dropped this NPC 3x now in the last 6 months out of being bored on my 78 BST / 76 Warrior pet / 78 Journeyman Cleric Merc. It never drops the good stuff, cept them silly monk legs x2 I am lucky to get 5k out of on my trader. Each time get easier now that I know that its immune to my spell dots (aa bite of the asp takes), my nukes take, my slow has taken maybe 1x.
I havent timed it but know it takes under 10 mins (am guessing around 5-7mins) because I use Attack of the Warders and its on a 10 minute timer along with dropping all my meele disc 1 right after the other as soon as they fade.
Fun NPC to kill as long as you get to it right away as soon as patch is over or someone else will kill it. GL peeps..

well thats the last time i solo this guy rofl.

most boring hour ever just standing there whittling away lol.

if you were wondering, since i didnt look hard enough to see...

the statue spawns all the way in the back of the temple (im unsure of the respawn timer) after hes dead, follow the hidden path from his room. you cant go the arena way, thats blocked. thats where youll find the idol. kill him and the move forward down the hall into the arena.

there is mr. A.O. War.

enjoy!

Dropped today on FV Server after we killed our way through the phases for fun by.. 78 Monk (MT) 750 AA's / 70 Paladin *me* 725 AA's (attacked from behind) / 74 Shaman *monk's box* w/Pet / 71 Shaman *my box* w/Pet. Poison based dot took as well as malo but that was all. We had Shaman's join in meeleing as we were strapped for time. Basically it was a meele fight and took us 14.5 minutes. We did a measure to check its hp's and it was around 1M, but prolly less taking into consideration it's regen.

Not that bad a fight, just long. The trick was to minimize damage between epic 2.0 clicks. Every 5 minutes when that popped I had a minute to heal up free.

Took him down with a level 80 warrior,80 cleric and 75 or so bard. Was a fun fight! Warrior stated that he hit about same speed as Idol, but higher base dmg. The fight didnt take but maybe 20-25 minutes at most. We did all the names there excepts vindi,which I killed before anyone got there,and king,whom I originally wanted to find,but was not up. He resisted blood spells, as I figured he would anyways. Dropped 2 legs,ring and helm. Lots of fun!!!

Edit: Took him down again with just Sk and Cleric(myself) Fight took 35 minutes.
Ended the fight with 57% mana, mostly CHing and patch when needed. Max hit was around 1k,with shielding.

Took him down today with 4, 76 mag/nec/shm boxed by me, and wife's 76 cleric. Was about a 20 min fight seeing as how he resisted EVERY spell we casted on him. Finally just sat back and let the pets kill him. Shm used swarm pets twice , kept HoT and lassitude on Mage pet (tank) totally forgot about Panther so not sure if that would have worked on him. Necro Lifetaps were NOT resisted but due to high mana cost was more efficient just to twitch the Cleric. Mage used swarm pets twice, Servent of Ro twice, Rampaging servent a few times and other then that just kept the big 4 hit DS on pet. Also had the new lvl 76 DS on pet. Pet had 105 points of DS, 630 with the 4 hit one. The fight never turned in his favor, Mage got down to like 60 mana, Necro never got below 90% once he started just twitching. Shammy stuck around 80%. Cleric finished around 70% mana just casting CH, didn't even have to chain them, had time to sit a tick or so in between. Overall was a long fight, been waiting years to take this guy down. We check him often but the Statue is never upped. He dropped 1 Blade of Carnage, and 2 of the rings. Good luck to everyone wanting to try their hand on this guy, just gotta beat the perma-campers to him :)

I doubt he'll be solo'able for a long while. Killed him with 5 last night, war/cleric/mag/enc/monk, all lvl 75, took a good 10-15 mins of DPS before he went down. He has very good AC...I dont think any class could solo him due to his high alot of Hitpoints. I didnt keep any log, but guessing, im assuming around 1 million HPs at the least..but maybe im wrong.

I can feel the angst!

If a cleric does this, does the cleric class need nerfing? No
Does the person who did it legit without hax0r, or rigging it, need nerfing? Possibly :)

If any cleric is closest to doing this the proper way, its probably myself, but getting a spawn on AB is a pain- too many farm him. Statue/Idol are doable, though.

Where exactly on the map does he spawn? Close to the arena? I am thinking of taking my cleric there and solo him, if all he is is a war mob and no pets I should have no prob. I have been soloing lvl 72 named in WoS lately so hopefully this guy shoulden't be too tough. Let me know if he has any procs or spell effects of some sort if anyone knows.

You know where Vindi spawns?
Keep going past that, through the doors his guards spawn at.
Way in back, is a drop-down, with a little altar that the statue,spawns. Then idol pops in the tunnel which entrance seems to be on the right hand side in temple and then avatar spawns in arena.

The only critters in the *game* that have a "max level to engage" limit are Naggy and Vox.

Personally I think they need to remove these limits as Naggy and Vox really don't drop anything all that spectacular by today's standards (if it's that big of a deal put some level restrictions on the gear) and *do* drop epic 1.0 bits people need.

No level cap like Naggy and Vox

Depending on gear and the ac of the tank, nowadays, can probably be single grouped.

Hi everyone!
Do you think this encounter would be doable with a family style guild? Our guild could most likely muster up about 12 people ranging from high 50's to a few 70's. We have some people that are well geared, but not sure that we have the cleric power to get thru this fight. Also does this guy spawn in the arena itself? if so, can he be coaxed out of there so that a mage's AoE nukes don't squash my friends?

He does pretty intense continuous dps. I have a group of friends who kill him with 7-12 people regularly but we are all qvic+ geared. I've heard of people one grouping him but you'd have to be right on the money and your tanks and clerics would have to be hella geared.

well three things that could be different about having a 15k tank and 4 clerics. A the clerics might not be very good, b is that even though the tank has 15k hp that doesnt mean all his defensive aa's are maxed. Three is if the rotation goes off like a cleric hits a lag spike its a wipe. Finally theres no way if it was just the 5 people that it would succeed, because of the lack of dps. It would be much easier if u had a bard for songs and a rogue for dps.even with a single group of dps its still a long fight, a fight with 1 warrior and 4 clerics would take well over an hour wearing all of the clerics mana out.

15k tank and 4 clerics is retarded because of A) No DPS, B) Its just not necessary to have that many healers.

Do him weekly with 16k Paladin, 11k Mana Cleric, Ranger Rogue Bard Shaman.

I really think Allas needs to update the AoW here, since GoD, OoW, DoN, all the old world mobs have become like a joke anymore. MPG or RS is more of a challenge than this guy is.

.... It depends on the gear. Just because you have 15k HP and die... That doesn't mean the tank sucks, it means the Clerics failed to do their jobs. And your group WASN'T just a tank and 4 Clerics. Sure, you had a tank and a Cleric.... but you had other classes as well. Nukes. Clerics don't nuke that well compared to Wizards. Bards play a big factor in it too, when/if their songs land. Try doing what they did and see if you die before you automatically flaming someone.

hmm I think you are are full of it, due to the fact you could not fight to him by yourself at 31, cant invisi past mobs at a certain point, if you grouped it there would have been witnesses, and I was on the veeshan server, now luclin and if this happened there would have been talk. So please dont post bull anymore

Possable?

Would it be possable for a guild with a Three cleric CHC going, and a tank with 8.2k HP max?

What classes would be needed to take a mob down like this?

|Raid Attendance|
Chanters x2
Mages x2
Warrior x5 (All Defensive AAs)
Cleric x3-4
Pally: x2
Shadow Knight x1
Monk x1
Bards x2 (With Fading Memories)
Shammys x2

The Max amout we ever get is about 25 people. Would it be possable!?!

Yes if your clerics can chchain well then you should have no problem if you have the damage points.

I'm sure it's possible you probably just need to work on the strat that will work best for your raid group.

No its not. I dont care how much DPS or how many healers you have an 8.2 max HP tank isnt going to cut it on AOW.

Keep in mind too, this was velious era. 8k was near max of what the tanks had back then.
It should still be possible, especially with enough ac. But really, someone with only 8.2, probably isnt going to have enough ac to matter. Plus level makes a difference as well. 70 is a big difference from when people were killing him at 60. Level vs mob is calculated into everything.
You only need enough hp to survive being one-rounded. a 1 sec ch chain is sure to keep anyone up. More ac will make the hits lower.


Looking theoretically (ie; speculating, and too lazy to really test it)
Assuming you aren't running a 1 second ch chain, but just using lots of heals.
Max hit is quad 1150.
So thats 4600 total.
2 rounds he max hits for 9200.
Min hit is 299
so thats 1196 quad
2 rounds 2392
So you have the tank taking between 2392 and 9200 before a heal usually lands.
Now raise his ac, that lowers the spikiness of the hits.
Say the 8.2k tank has 3k ac, suddenly aow is only max hitting 900.
Now thats quad total of 3600
2 rounds, 7200.
Tank is now taking 2392 to 7200. Plenty for heals to land and keep him up.

Just killed him tonight with a rather large force of about 25 peeps. Not slowable, doesnt ramp, but flurries. Get a CH order of about 4 healers and a tank with 10k hps or more and u should be fine. Dropped 2 helms and 2 masks.

Killed him today with a 70 war, cleric, shaman, and 68 druid and 66 monk, 5 in total. (We had a Chanter with us, but he fell asleep before he was even pulled)

Had no problems really, i was boxing enc shaman and monk, cleric boxing druid and war was on him self only.

Took us a good 30 mins to kill him, it was not really a problem but got hairy at one place, crit heals took care of that..

There was no use of WTD or charmed mobs.

15k war tho, that helps alot, and good qvic geared cleric and shaman.


GL all :)

ps. damn 2x bow and 1 x pants..

could this be done with a small raid force of about 24 people, avg level 63? main tank buffs up to 9.2k, secondary tank has 8.5 raid buffed. we do vindi/statue with no problems, but never tried AoW.

thanks

Yes, he can be 1-grouped now(before OoW as well) by well-geared players, he's trivial with 10 raid-geared people if you have a warrior as tank and at least two clerics. It will probably take you over 20 minutes however. If you want a skeleton crew, it's tank, healers and mana regen/DPS - nukes of lesser value since they don't land entirely well without real debuffs.

The smallest crew I've ever done him with was a 12k HP warrior, 3 clerics and 5 other chars, but the setup wasn't optimal.
#Eueadder, Posted: Sep 18 2004 at 11:56 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) ok imagine 120 ppl rape'n this dude.lol avg lvl of 40.WE OWNED THIS GUY!!! we had 30 healers 40 tanks and the rest were DPS and casters.not a problem but have casters away from him. he will aggro if u nuke right by him
