ran into a new mob today, back near shar vinitras. named Akuel`tekar. didnt think anything of it, ran in and attacked, hit for 2500 or so, died real fast so no real info on it. just a warning for other exporers out there.
If you're a mage after your 1.5 book off Danvis' Corpse best way is shrowd to rogue, a lot of mobs see invis but not sneak. Traps will still spring and spawn those annoying mind worms which do aggro on you though so use detect traps non stop. No mobs near the corpse so you just sneak on up /open and spirit sending on outa there.
If your a Mage after your 1.5 book, bring another mage or someone with whom you can duo well with. If you insist on doing it solo, follow one of the guides on training all mobs and tripping all the traps along the way and gate back to zone in and use invis. This is not 100% worthy either because as hard as it may seem, you will not trip every trap on that 1 pass & you will find out just which ones you missed very quickly.
Shrouding DOES NOT WORK. You end up with what amounts to 2 rusty daggers to defend yourself with vs. your pet. Hmmm let's see ...Mage pet or Rusty Daggers...I will take Mage pet for 500 Alex. The rogues sense trap DOES NOT WORK on the traps in here. I found this out the hard way. That's how I know I will take Mage pet over the rusty daggers.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE if your going to post a method to do something make sure you have done it. Perhaps you just got lucky shrouded as goblin and missed all the traps on your way back. The only reason nothing showed while using sense traps was because it doesn't work and you just lucked up and chose the right path to to the back.
Some of the mobs DO see invis, alot don't though. The biggest problem is the traps in the floors that spawn mind worms and shades. IF, you are lucky enough to get all the traps tripped by using the run & train method, the see invis mobs would be your only obstacle, & very likely could make it putting pet onto the mobs who DO see invis & invising past the rest.
Just in case you make it all the way to Danvi and it won't let you loot the body because it says you have aggro and you know that you don't. Camp out next to the corpse and come right back. For some strange reason a friend got a message he had aggro and we had none at all.
heard a rumor that you could learn akheva from some of the mobs here as the 26th language for maxing out your tainted heartstone charm... can anyone confirm this? i'd love to know if its true, i've got 7 casters with 25 languages, all with that charm and i'd love to see it go higher than 9/11/72
The 10th uncommon language is Thieves Cant I believe. A rogue may be able to teach the language... I have never tried to learn it on other toons, so not 100% sure
You only need 13 languages to max out the charm, not all of them. Just the uncommon ones. Erudite, Gnomish, Dwarven etc will not count towards charm stats. Dragon, Elder Dragon, Gnoll etc will count towards it though
My mage has max stats 10/75/12. she speaks common and 24 other languages, none of them akheva. if you have all 24 languages at 100 you should have the same stats.
new mob , Renthias´Dator , found in the room with the standing pilar (between shei-room and slave quarters far north from teh entrance) . mob is blue to lvl 64 and has a smal skelie pet (probably sk) . model is that black robed figure , same hight as the normal rygan anisher .
Found it in the room north of Shei's spot. Dark elf female. No response to hail. Cannot hand it coin or items. Level 65 [UNKNOWN CLASS] but cons green with the message "Danvi's Corpse regards you indifferently. This creature could pose problems, you would probably defeat it." When I tried to attack I got an "out of range" message
This is for mage epic 1.5. Drops (or spawns rather) Journal of Magus Tvish .. to loot this book simply target corpse and type /open, and it will let you loot her corpse. Spawns every 1.5 hours =)
Never seen this mob before, was pulled while clearing **** around Shei, just a normal named 4 arm mob, nothing special, dropped Akheva blood and nothing else. Name was Warlord, not an Akhevan Warlord, just plain Warlord.
Found this mob in a side room all alone........looks like a shade, conned blue to 65 but i didn't have the guts to take him alone. Fairly deep into the zone
All of those mobs are in the small series of rooms in the left-most wing as you head to Shei. They seem tightly packed in these rooms, so crowd control (or good pulling) is important if you're going to fight them.
To get to them, zone in, run straight through the first intersection (fallen pillar), take a right (Va'Dyn hall), then hang left (Itraer Vius to the right), run down this short hall and take a right (straight goes to Sacrificial Altar room for Vex Thal key frames) into the GREAT HALL of AR. Once in the great hall, take the stairs on the left, run down this hall, and take a left to the small rooms area.
********************** New Mob! NAMED Mob: Apprentice Keeper. Akhevan (four armed robed figure). Dark Blue to 65, Scowls (KoS), Shadowknight (Harmtouched me for 881).
He's alone in a small room with a black-runed wall (similar to the ones IV's room) - instead of taking the final left to get to the Small Rooms Wing, look for a small niche in the wall and go straight. It's not incredibly obvious but it's not exactly hard to find, either.
Also I'd just like to add that I died in Shei's room while exploring and ran all the way back to drag it out, naked! How many people do you know who have done that? =)
To anyone who's doing the Cloak of Truth, the room with Itraer Vius, all of those Xi Vius very commonly drop them. Also Rygan Anisher commonly drops the stone.

I'm lookin to lead a raid here I believe we will be sucsessfull. . .I'm not planing on taking out any of the 63+ guys. I'm askin if anyone has any sujestion for me. . .like where can I find a mab good pull spots etc. . .keep in mind I'm on vallon zek with a pure team darky guild. . .to all you blubies I know this is a disadvantage but I believe we will do great. . .so plz any HELPfull sujestions plz\
took out the va`dyn with 4 people 7 toons total...took about 10 minutes to kill him cuz he has so many hps but he is slowable and really not too hard at all to take...tried taking out IV with the same amount..bad news, not enough dps etc kept getting repops so i suggest you take a larger raid...decent loot here though =) va`dyn isnt worth killing imo, only drops a decent caster robe, def not worth it.
Well not sure at how much of a disadvantage you would be at but here it goes...
With two well equipped (ToV+ gear) groups of 60+ you can clear just about all but the highest level mobs. With three groups that are well balanced you can do the Va'Dyn. I would just suggest move a couple of hundred feet and clear the couple hundred in front of you. You will need to watch out for the traps though. I really suggest a monk or SK puller.
Other than that the zone is fun the loot is not bad and the exp is decent.
I really want that nice 2hsword that drops in this zone that looks like a centi ls when worn. Every time I've been here I have not seen it or seen the mob that uses it. Rumor has it that Transient xi that spawns at the ledge carries it? Yet someone here said a mob named warlord drops it. Use to be called kel Xundrau xi Xauninae, now it's called "Ans Xundrau xi xauninae", has 42dmg 45dly. Plus 3 all stats and saves. Perfect for raids or grouping when your not the MT. If anyone has some accurate information on this weapon and the mob that drops it please post here. By the way this zone is great for 55+ for exp. And as with most highlevel zones, not to great for pick up groups.
This sword drops rare off the three Four-Arm Akhevians who are standing over the sacrificed remains which are for the Vex Thal key Quest. If you run towards Itrae Vitus spawn you just run north from his chamber. There is a wall consisting of several windows. Pull the right wailing/chanting shade (2 adds). Kill them and move in hugging the right wall. Kill the shades in the center and then move fast up the stairs to the Four-arm guys. They are easier than the wailing/chanting shade and if you stay on the ledge only the three spawns there will aggro everytime. Respawn is about six minues. Hope that helps.
Btw: They drop beside the 2hs you mentioned a 13/25 and a 11/22 dagger with 3 to all stats/resists both, and a dropable Dagger 'Akhevian Sacrifical Dagger' 10/20 5int 20mana Enc,Mag,Wiz,Nec Primary,Secondary,Range.
