Rapticor
# Jul 18 2001 at 1:16 AM Rating: Decent
I just soloed him at 49 (ranger) using fear. He has a ton of hps, more than enything I've ever soloed by far. Took me five minutes of DOTS+Fear+melee to kill him. At the end I was at 10% mana and 50% health. He does not run faster than sow, though he runs a bit faster than normal raptors, even snared he's fast.

He dropped.... words and meat :(
Dropped Rapticor Hide

I kited him fairly easily (51 bard, chant kite) and he dropped a Rapticor Hide. No idea if the hide is for anything.

I've read he also drops the Strong Raptor Guts used for the Iceforged Shackles quest.

The guts (for the shackles quest) drop off of raptors and sauruses too. If you're in Wake looking for the Strong Raptor Guts, your best bet is to take on the smaller guys. This guys is a freight train.

Special Tailoring

That'd be my guess. Likely some nifty armor can be tailored from it, maybe a Vest or Boots... but since tailoring recipes are a pain to find (not anywhere NEAR as many folks do the high end tailoring game as do smithing... for obvious reasons) it might either A.) still be a closely guarded secret or B.) not been discovered yet.

All tigeraptors can drop tigeraptor pelts. It is used to make the ranger-only studded tigeraptor armour. Some of these pieces are fairly nice, but they are not trivial even at a skill of 250. If you are interested in the recipes, they can be bought from one of the tailoring vendors in Thurgadin.

He said Rapticor hide ... not Tiggeraptor hide. I have soloed him 3 times (rng 52) and he does have alot of hp but not bad for a ranger to kill and gives great exp when you do.

All I got for loot is meat though. =(
Lot of HP

Royal pain

I foolishly snared Rapticor while playing my lvl 45 druid. He conned blue to me and I didn't realize he was a"named" raptor. My mistake.

I thought it would be a piece of cake at first. Root stuck and so did Drifting Death. In fact things were great until he was close to half dead.

That's when this fella started resisting roots. And when a root would finally stick, he would break it in about 10-15 sec. I went OOM just trying to root him. Finally zoned into Skyshrine to break aggro.

The one I fought was lower than level 45, but was a tough guy. 4 drifting deaths and about 12 55-damage roots didn't quite drop him to half health.

Faster than sow.

Rapticor also seemed faster than sow.
As a lvl 51 sk, I was able to keep him darked and feared through most of the fight
I ran out of mana with him at about 1/4 health, so I hit him with Harmtouch and
that was enough to start him running away.
At one point he dropped Darkness while feared and even with Jboots, I could not catch up to him at all. He seemed like he was much faster than sow.
He dropped a crushed flame emerald. Which is for the Melee Bracer quest.

Good luck with this guy.

PS. Don't even think about it if you are less than lvl 50 as he hits fast and hard.

I managed.. (Through luck as much as skill) to solo this guy yesterday. He dropped the diamond for the velious armor quests. If only I needed that one.. Ah well

yes this guy hurts badly if your not 50+ he is a pain... and yes i do mean that literally he kicks asses lets just say that
#Anonymous, Posted: Jun 30 2001 at 10:52 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) You f u cking dumbass, go back to school. He literally kicks asses? Look up literally in the dictionary. He doesn't literally kick asses unless he fears you or you run away from him. And if he could actually kick you, logic and gravity would say that he would fall down rather quickly trying to pull that off. Dumbass.
#Anonymous, Posted: Jun 30 2001 at 10:47 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) You are a f ucking moron, Go back to school you dumb a ss. Literally? He Literally kicks asses? Unless this ***** fears you or you run away he won't literally kick your ***. And if he could kick your *** he would fall down because he is a raptor, Dumb Shi t.
