pained soul
Monster
Uploaded July 24th, 2007
The pained soul carries one of three parts of the Medallion of the Obulus, a component in the old Veeshan's Peak key quest.
It spawns at -1835, -4370, -355 in Trakanon's Teeth. Any of the varieties of spectral Iksar wandering the surrounding area can be the placeholder. The pained soul itself is a very rare spawn.

PH is "spectral Keeper" or "spectral partisan" or "spectral champion"
Static mob (doesn't wander)
Spawns at Loc: -1830, -4370
Tough camp, up to 12 hours. If he is not there, might have been trained away and didn't path back.
Mob doesn't attack on sight but his ph's do so if you park a pet class that can take a few hits, you can be semi-afk.
Also a lot easier to camp during the EQ aniversary as the "fabled" version spawns more often and also drops the piece, although, he is a lot tougher.

All I can add or not add, is that I have been camping this spot now for over 16 straight hours, and besides wanderers, all that pop are Spectral Keeper and Spectral Champion. I kill ANYTHING that comes around, and run around doing that, and the timer of 7 minutes is right, but no Pained Soul... Anyone have any helpful insights?

Took 36 straight hours, with help from a couple friends to get this stupid monster to finally show. Didn't leave the spot at all. It IS non-aggro monster until you attack it. OMG what a waste of 2 days! But thanks to the help from my friends, I have the piece - but on a side note, I thought this was everQUEST not everCAMP!!

I am at the reported location of pained soul, or his place holder (My /loc is -1839, -4370). There is no place holder spawning. I have been here for about two or three hours now. There are only wanderers. I have determined there are no place holders poppinng by four methods. First, while I was invisible to undead, I stood looking at the spot where the place holder was supposed to spawn, and nothing popped in that spot. Second, while still invisible to undead I went for a walk, and nothing was nearby that was stationary. Third, I leved to the top of the broken wall on the top of the second floor of this building where the place holder was supposed to be and afk'd, and checked track. Since no one else was in the zone, and no killing was happening, nothing popped including at the ph spot. Fourth, I manuvered so I could clearly see the spot where pained soul was supposed to pop, and no pop was visible. Further, I checked track sorted by distance, and pained soul was not on track near by (just in case he was by some means invisible to me, even though I have a see invisible focus effect and Spirit of Eagle on at all times.). So, no place holders, no invisible pained soul, which leads me to wonder if he is now on a timer?
After the above post, I was thinking, and wondered if the place holder for pained soul was a stationary mob, did it wander off for some reason and get stuck? (Feared, fleeing, chasing a player, etc.) And then the reason to be mobile went away becasue the player lost aggro, or the player zoned, etc. In which case the mob may have remained stationary at its new location. So, i decided to freshen up the spectral xyz's in the area. Being a ranger, I tracked things by spawn time and killed them from oldest to most recent in the ruined city area of the south eastern part of the zone. After a while all of the spectral mobs were new in the city area, but still no ph popping. I then went on a zone wide killing spree. I killed all of the rest of the spectral mobs that were probably in their proper spawn spots near the numerous ruined buildings, and all the wandering ones near the Emperor. I made sure that all the mobs were new spawns by aged tracking (normal according to the tracking sort list). This took a long time. (? four hours?) While doing this, I found a spectral mob which was out in the middle of no where, all by himself, not near the Emperor, or any of the ruins which I killed. When I got back to the ph spot specifed above, the ph was there, and has spawned every approximately 6.5 minutes as others have said. I suspect I found the lost ph out in the middle of now where. I have seen this kind of thing happen before with a vendor Centaur in South Karana once, and several times in Kael Drakkal with mobs disturbed by during hits on Tormax or Avatar of War.

Confirmed: Pained Soul is NOT KOS.
There are a ton of roamers at this camp. However I believe you could do the AFK Pet class trick. (That worked for the one in Dreadlands).
Camp a pet class there. Pull up the pet. Buff. etc. Get them pet toys. Sit afk at the loc. KOS mobs spawn attack - this camp debuffs you. Anyway they keep beating on your main toon. Pet will kill the PHer. (This camp has some roamers so you may want to stay semi-at-keyboard until you see if pet will handle the adds too).
Anyway eventually the PHer's will attack you and pet kills them off automatically. Eventually the named does pop and does not aggro. Log on the toon you want to loot with. Kill it and loot up.

Wow. Sitting in the same exact spot for 5+ hours is getting really annoying. Almost beginning to wonder if he even pops any more.

9 hours into camp, still nothing. If I didn't have South Parks to watch, I probably would have fallen asleep 4 hours ago.

I can confirm this location to be accurate!
You have to zig zag your way in through all the buildings, but once there, you will deal with one static spawn at that exact location mentioned by Scholar.
I was doing it for my 3-box and had Pained Soul spawn 3 times in about 2 hours. Easy!
Thanks for the tip, Scholar. Happy to see some useful information here on Alla instead of all the usual nonsense :)

wow.. talk about a rare spawn.. i was going to my sisters wedding and realised the only way to stop the "one more time to check" trap was to not kill the placeholder. so i went to check and who is there but "the fabled pained soul!"

So VP gets revamped - no biggie - it never peaked my interest that much. Then guildies want to start killing the dragon for the book in Skyfire . I attend, and recieve my piece. Thinking, well, this might not be such a bad quest . Off to Seb we go to find the Echo. We found him, and Trakanon. Well, its not too often there is a dragon in the same zone as I , and both live to tell the tale. So , we gather a little force and kill Trak. Now i have a tooth for the first VP quest . Me thinks , mebbe this will be better to take up on . After all, better stats if the original quest is completed. So , i start looking into it.
I think it was the post down below that says **This is like camping VT shards , only i would rather be in ME again than doing this**
Something tells me this will go in my bank , right next to two out of four consillium reports needed for the earring of veracity quest. For anyone who has had fun working on this quest , i highly recommend doubling your frustration and stress and take up on the earring quest ....there is NO ZONE in the game thats more fun than Sanctus Seru with its zonewide Lag delays. I can't even get a group to step in that place let alone help me camp for reports for several hours , killing mobs with as much HP as the golems in Earth.
This ones for you , SOE (pops a prozac)

I decided I would give the key a run after I looted the book of dragon for new key. Instead of doing the new quest, I cracked on the old one. Two days after I started key was done. The only hangup was BGM in Loio. This guy here...was up when I was on way to seb. I could not believe it, no server reset, no zone crash, just him waiting.
Factioning for VP quests was hard...but worth it. The faction took 16 hours, the key took 8 hours.
Good luck folks, it is worth your time unless you are already too uber to care.

I decided a long time ago that I would not waste time getting a VP key. I swore to myself that I would not do it.
Blast you, Sony, for making that the Ancient Jarsath in FV pop right in front of me... so easy... sucked me right into your web. Then the servers go down for an emergency pacth and, lo and behold, Verix Kylox in KC is right there upon server reset... and a friend pulls him to the zone for me, no less. So now I have two pieces with less than an hour's worth of trouble. The Bloodgill Maurader was right there, too, upon another server reset. Three peices, in under 60 minutes... "HA", I think, "maybe this key wont be so hard".
Curse to every sadistic developer in your ranks, Sony.
I'm currently sitting on 7 days of camping both the Rotting Skeleton in DL, and the Pained Soul in TT. I have two toons parked right at their spawn point. I log one, kill the PH, log off, log the other one, kill the other PH, log off, rinse and repeat... for 7 days straight so far. No less than 3 hours each time. I guess my EQ Karma ran out with the first 3 spawns.
So thank you, Sony, for luring me into yet another pointless and agravating time sink.

Spawn timer of 'pained soul' varies from 6:30 to 6:32, so relatively consistant spawn of PH's. 104 PH's so far, 3-4 of them have been 'spectral partisan', but mainly 'spectral keeper'.

On my 15th hour of camping atm and not a damn thing. Glad Sony thinks sitting in the same spot for hours is "fun" and worth paying 12.95 a month.

Just to verify:
The PH is a Spectral Keeper at Loc -1830'ish, -4370'ish. The spawn time is 6 mins and 50 secs.
