Guys pretty gimp Took him down on sleepers hit for 1600 max,
Was camping fabled battlemaster and just killing all the other named phs to see if there where any other fabled in zone not listed !!!
Man this place sucks for exp. this must be one of those "loot" zones where SoE decides to cut the exp in 1/2.But the problem is that the loot sucks here these days in 2005.
Dual boxing a 55 Ranger and a 55 shaman I barely got the exp bar to move when I killed like 10+ mobs here. No wonder this place is a ghost town.
Viianixis is not a mob, he's the SoE GM for game hacks and exploits, he's been logging in alot lately due to the recent flood of people blatently doing crap. Also saw him pop in RSS as a prylian flamechick
In the building with the zone to AR. Is a Green KOS to a 61 agnostic monk. Did not aggro me at all. I'm guessing he's something to do with a new Epic but who knows really.
I was whacking toilers today for charcoal, and a new named popped on track. I used to come into this zone all the time, but hadn't been here in a while and never saw this name before. Viianixis. Red at 59, and popped in the walled compound. Might want to investigate this. :)
I tracked a mob, Frantic Ravenous Beast in ME today. Tracking it took me to the fire pot over by UP. The tracking acted like the mob was stuck somewhere in the structure. AE song didnt bring it out and f8 didnt target it.
Exp here is very nice and recently i discovered something i thought i would share, the boathouse ( House in the pond NE corner ) is full of Xin Thall Centiens and other Hooded Varients, the area surrounding is full of Toilers ( Toilers Drop Centi and Transient Sleeves ), With a good smart group this makes for GREAT exp and Excellent loot, there are also many nice spell Drops here ive sold a few in Bazaar for +500pp Happy Hunting =)
I get asked a lot in game about what and where are the mobs that drop shards in ME since i lived here pre PoP.
This is for my fellow guildies and anyone else wanted the VT shards.
A Goranga Seer: loc aprrox pos 850, pos 1000 PH middle Scout. Shards 2 in 3 A Goranga Battlemaster: loc approx neg 1300, pos 400 PH right side scout. Shards 1 in 2 a Goranga Savant: loc approx neg 200, pos 800 PH is SW most scout of the 3. Shard 1 in 2 A Goranga Forager: loc approx neg 200, pos 800 PH is NW most scout of the 3. Shards 2 in 3 A Goranga Prophet: loc neg 1550, neg 500 PH scout furthest into the zone. Shards 2 in 3
Scouts are always PHers, and the shards not that rare if you know what to kill to spawn the nameds. Only the battlemaster seems to have good loot, or the seer if you want a 20ac mask with no hps. The drop rate of shards is a guess from all the times i've killed these.
I can confirm that the shard does indeed drop off the Savant and the Forager, which are listed at the said positions above.
After a server reset, I went to check wether any of the named gorangas were up, and to my surprise, both of these were. Killed them quickly for two of my friends and they both dropped the shard. Not sure if these are static spawns at every server reset, more testing needs to be done.
Looks like a Monster not on beast list here for a Goranga Lookout level ~48-52. This one cons dblue to yellow to my 50 lvl shaman. Drops Words of Bondage but mostly only Plat. And seems to be like Warrior type class.
I am not sure about other classes, but I know that this is a great place for druids to solo. I would recommend 50+ and i would say by 55 you could head to WW. In my experience this is the best method to killing things. If it is possible (your level is high enough) charm a ravenous beast and have it attack the umbrous toiler. This is a good way for exp. Also it helps to dot them while the pet is attacking to speed up this process. If you can not charm a ravenous beast snare/root then dot away!! make sure u stay away from the Xi's near the lake. Good luck
killed him today 5/3/03 caster about the same as the Prophet. drop a nodrop item... goranga War Staff primary skill:1hb 20/9 wtg 3.0 class war clr pal rng shd dru mnk brd rog shm bst race:all
Not Listed, A Goranga Battlemaster. Level 57 - 58. PH Is Static Scouts. Took him down with a group of Mid 50's. Dropped some VERY nice Shoulders. Gratz me!

I also got the Slighted Pauldrons from a Goranga Battlemaster. These are a very nice shoulder item with the good AC and low weight. Stats are exactly as listed above. Seems to be his common drop if not his only drop. Will keep on hunting here and see what else drops!
Infos on this mob are outdated. I'm 61 Shaman and i pulled one yesterday, dark blue to me... i must say it's been quite a surprise, just read.
Pulled it with 75% slow, no prob, rooted and send pet (lvl 61 pet, fully buffed with Celerity, Focus, STA, AGI, Regen, Primal Essence + the pet only buff). The fight started, i casted epic DoT on mob, seems usual no prob solo. Epic dot landed. But then, even slowed and my pet at its max, the mob started to outdamage my pet badly ! Had to cast a couple of Torpor on my pet to avoid it to be slained *hmm!*
To help pet, i decided to DoT : ALL my DoTs were resisted. ALL. Hmmm, i casted Malo -> landed with no prob then recasted my DoTs : Here again, ALL were resisted. Had to kill it in pure melee with pet assist, took me like 10 mns real time (and i'm quite a battle shaman but they seems to have TONS of HP!).
All this for... 4 copper. Can you believe it ? So either the infos here are really, really outdated, either i engaged a specific mob with ultra high resist or i don't know but this was a badass... for your info, i solo'd a few Gorangas after this one with much more ease (all my DoTs landed, as usual).
I love this zone. Been trying to get my monk a Goranga Spiked Club, so I got a small greoup together. Group was: 55 druid, 49 druid, 52 warrior, and 47 chanter (me). We were doing great, this is a very cool zone, aside from the massive trains. We pulled a lot of Gorangas, most blue, some yellow, a few red to me at 47. And even got trained by 2 while fighting one, everyone panicked and aside from the War going LD we coulda won. Hust some advice for soeone thinking of going here with a small group like me, stay away from the mins burrowers. Got trained by a lvl 52 one, these guys have a TON of hp, but once I landed a slow, druid heals caught up. Fight lasted about 5 min. All in all I think this is a great xpin zone, but I'm gonna stay in Velks a few more lvls...
Just came back today and have some nice info ready, one, the Gorangas have very low resists, I was able to land mezzes/slows on reds without many problems. The Vampire Bats, dont see invis, but they are VERY magic resistant, I was getting constant resists on blues. As are Coteries, who are always rsistant, no matter where. Whe killing in the Coterie house, camped by the zone wall, I suddenly saw a blackish arm in front of me.POW! Xi Xaui hits YOU for 128 points of damage! As usual, I got aggro off onto tanks and mezzed him, thank god, we finished the bat off we were fighting, bard charmed one and proceeded to pound the Xi. Went down easy, must have been a weak one as I didnt even tash to land mez. I love this zone and it's pretty safe for chanters, lvl 47+ as long as you have a cleric to give ya a few buffs and a good channeling skill ^_^
A note about the bats: some see invis, some don't. The same is true of the robed guys also. So if you are invis in this zone, /con things before you run by...
