Ok 45 mins tops, stay near the tower where the explores are, LOC pos1489 -290 THEY WILL AGRO if you get to close. Killed every thing i saw :cats,skellys,goblins,sarnaks, Sarnak Crypt Raider did spawn between the Tower and the beach . Easy kill
While killing the explorers for the knives they drop i noticed this guy alot. People say he's sorta rare and what not, but i saw him walk through the explorers tower at P1730, P264 quite alot. The only thing i was really killing were the skeles that agroed me while i was standing around waiting on spawns. Although he could have other place holders i didn't find him all that rare while camping the explorer's, and just so happens i needed a brain from him for the iksar beastlord weapon quest's.
For anyone looking for him just kill everything around the LOC mentioned above and you should see him shortly, however the sarnak's and goblin's do fight so it's best to keep an eye out for him.
FYI - Sarnaks and goblins now fight each other... since this is a weaker member of the sarnak species, it is very likely to die within a minute or three of spawning (unless you keep the goblins clear).
Last night I had a druid friend help me kill everything in the area roughly between the ruins at +1700,+1700 (#6 on EQAtlas), the hut with outcast iksar at +3000,-1700 (#4 on EQAtlas), and the point where the lake meets the river.
Shortly after killing everything in the area (30-40 minutes max) we had *3* crypt raiders show up on track and he snared and dragged one over to me to kill. So they're not as uncommon as I expected, you just have to engage them first before the goblins do (and keep your fight away from the goblins).
just a quick question on the embalming fluid: is it infact a drop from lesser mummies...and can be imported via another character? (why have the chance of not being able to make it...if you don't have to)

The bone granite powder is made from 1 forging hammer, 2 bone chips, and 1 pile of granite pebbles and you get the pebbles from turning in 2 busted chains of escaped frogloks that spawn rarely from killing newbie mobs out in swamp of no hope when at least 1 froglok escort is alive in the zone...
While seeking more enlightenment from Fear himself, I sat near the edge of the lake, within the area directly out from Cabilis. A few sabretooth cats, a goblin or two, and a couple of undead had fallen to service in the underworld, when low and behold, around p1000 n90, I spied the crypt raider. He whom is sought after by the iksar necromancers of my brood. Slaying him was of little difficulty (looked like I would have the upper hand), and blammo! I received my brain. Now to find some embalming fluid...hrmmmm

Was walking to mill when I saw this tiny sarnak, went up to it, killed it and it dropped this sarnak brain, anyone know what it's for? ( oh and btw, the tiny iksar was the sarnak crypt raider) :P
Okay, I'm a 12 necro and I couldn't find this thing for the life of me. I knew from other posts that he was near the north side of the Lake of Ill Omen. Others had told me that he was 1) Close to the FV Zone entrance. 2) Close to the Water Tower. 3) Close to the abandoned house close to the Water Tower. I wasn't finding jack! Then I found out that druids and rangers could track stuff. I sent out a tell to one Shamsheer Scimitar of the Wrecking Crew Guild and he was very happy to help. After an hour and a half of tracking and searching and getting lost (he was following me) he picked up a trail close to a goblin outpost. The sarnak crypt raider was an easy kill at my level of 12 (he still conned blue though). Right when I was dishing up the finishing blow, a war bone came along and smote me to the earth. Crap! When I respawned I quickly did a locate corpse to get back to my Sarnak and see if I could help out Shamsheer (he was getting his butt kicked too, although much more slowly). I tried casting ward undead, but it was much too weak against the war bone so when he finished with Shamsheer, he came to kill me again. So, I went back on life number three to avoid the war bone, get the brain, loot my body, and wait for Shamsheer to thank and pay him. When he gets there, we see the crypt raider respawn! The loc is pos 1360, pos 1490 in the Lake of Ill Omen zone. There are some pillars and a ruined building with some goblins inside close by. Happy hunting!

this guy is right on the money. tried to find hime for days (real time days mind u) at the tower but got nuttin. went to 1360, pos 1490 saw the fallen pillars. there is one that u can walk up and sit on. i did that and not but 15 secs max, this guy attacked ME! not sure if he spawns on the pillar or what but go to this loc and maybe you'll get lucky.
p.s. didnt kill anything so i cant say if he has a place holder or not.
