If I recall correctly, these things used to hit for a max for high 190's, but was there last night I believe, and max hit for a level 56 Moktor, on a 56 monk, was in the 250's. Exp was really crappy too. A solo kill by the monk, with a 58 shammy healing/slowing and assisting ungrouped, only gave him a hair more than 1% exp. Why even bother going to this zone anymore? It's now harder AND the exp blows.
my guild formed a group tonight and went out to UP to get Moktor items in 3 or so hours we got 1 leggings and alot of vendor trash. sure its not as long as other people have been out there but still killed almost 40 of them. other then that Xp was nice.
was there with 62 war, 57 war, 56 pally 57 ench, 57 druid and a 58 druid. 58 druid was main healer.. and it worked out nice :)
Was there for 5 hours last night (06-04-05) probably pulled about 60-100 of these things, got one bracer and one set of leggings. Was hoping the drops might be a bit quicker, but the exp wasn't too bad.
Me(54 Pally) and 56 shammy can solo these with ease ... just takes 8 - 10 mins per mob. Shammy has full mana at end of fight so we can get constant pulls.
Both of us have fairly uber kit but do this with our own buffs, athough a virtue helps if i can get it. No drops yet .. but only killed a few
me and my guild raided this place not to long ago went for the druid BP but nothing droped but befor that a Moktor BP droped the drop isnt nurfed just more rare we killed maby 4 of um and it droped and this was like a week ago its a realy nice BP GREAT for a pally its like ment for a pally litteraly 15str 15 sta 8wis or what ever lol but ya GL getting the suit i need to get my guilds lazzy *** back down there to get me some more btw the hole group got riped apart by those undead and of course me the pally was left to run around that nasty zone and rez everyones *** ugg that was not fun deffinitly when im running past everything that summons and Vex Thal thats a nasty zone but i made it not dieing once beacuse im a god :P GL everyone safe travels -49th Pally Dwarf Darst Theundefetable Xev Mystic Mayhem
The Moktor armor drops got Nerfed so dam bad it makes me sick ... we killed at least 50 of these in a 7-8 hour session. group we had was kick ***. 52Shaman, 54Cleric, 53Bard, 53Shadowknight, 55Paladin, 52Paladin "me" I was Pulling, and MT. I'd Catch 1 CH a fight, usually 2 to leave full hp's for next pull .... at 52 with 3500hp's and 1052ac. Which is why Shaman / Chanter are most important here. You don't need a full group for the Moktors. They can be done with 1Shaman, 1Cleric, and 1 Tank. Key is for shaman to slow mob before it get's to group. They do a turn around in the hall before engaging. The 1 or 2 Pally stuns takes agro from shaman and it's Cake. Exp here Sucks, and the drop rate has been Nerfed on Moktor ... but it is nice gettin in on the Rumble / Doom / Zelnithak / Tawro raid squads. I have lot's of tight screenshots heh
slowing and Crippleing these babies really makes a difference and makes the Cleric happier. Shaman Nukes suck anyway, so just use your debuff spells to assist the Tanks.
best to kill moktors is the hall when u zone in from maiden. park ur grp in the hall and let 1 sk or monk pull the moktors from the camp outside. moktors hits for arround 190 double and get enraged. but can be slowed and most of spells will land on them. u can make it with a lvl50+ grp but a tank is recommend depends on the grp u have. i have done this moktors several times. lowest was a lvl46 bard just to play mana regen song ) lvl58 tank me sk lvl55 shammy lvl60 and enchanter. no healer REAL healer. for the name u need a cleric ofcourse because of tons of hp he have. i think verant has chance also the drop rate since first time i was in umbral plains. hope this help abit. i dont have see that they summo u. this will happend if u agro a dark ***. ) hope this helps abit.

OK, I think what you are trying to say it the if it enrages, you should attack only from behind, as it will riposte all attacks from the front. Jesus people, read what you type before you post it please!
with the patch of 2/13 these hit for 190ish now. They fixed some of the pathing if you pull to maidens zone. You can also single pull these much easier. Dark Assassins are much easier than the apes now.
Took a group there post patch. One of the moktors conned red to our 54 warrior. They also flurry and summon. We killed 7 and had nothing to show for it at the end.
On the posetive side they can be single pulled now. Our group was a well balanced 51-55. You can survive in this zone with those levels, but the going is slow, and avoid the named.
The helm dropped last night with new stats on it. Was 21ac still, but had 5sta and 4 wis on it with resists. Nice for pallys and our lvl 55 cleric put in on the roll too... war wont it though... doh.
They spawn right outside the tunnel entrance, behind the Dark Assassin. So you have to kill him (lvl 55 rogue, unstannable, unmezzable but slowable). I would not recommend this place to anyone without a lvl 55 enchanter to mez the adds, aggro range is huge and you will almost always bring more than one mob.
We did this tonight, only group in the zone, with a 57 pally pulling for us and only got multiples three times during the night. Lost the puller when the dark assassin added but when he brought back 2 moktor our shammy slowed them both and we just tank mezzed without any real issues.
yes they still drop and yes they summon. average drop rate is about 1 to 15 moktar. gaunts and boots are rare. helm arms bracer are super rare. and greaves bp are ultra rare.
About 10 days ago, I got almost complete set in 3 evenings, about 5 hours each time. Greaves dropped first, then BP, then other things. after that we got no drops for 4 days and just yesterday, helm, boots, bracer dropped in 6 hours. First drop on helm in over a week. I still think they reduced the drops.
All of the Moktor that I fought summoned. One thing to watch out for in Umbral Plains is the Dark Assassins because their aggro range is believed to be their line of sight sort of like mobs in PoF.

If your gonna post crap. Well dont or ill come to your server and kill you aight. At least have some taste when your making up stuff like thgat. And if Verant did that the game would be so gay since well. You could solo gods. And thats not cool. Youd see GMS being Jumped until Verant had to create a new super weapon and hunt you down. But then that GM would probably become corrupt and have to be hunted down then it would be an endless cycle until EQ BREAKS DOWN INTO COMPLETE KOS MAAAANNNNNNN STOP FREAKING ME OUT!!!!!!!
