Akbaq Salid is in the Erudin Wizard guild.

You say, 'Hail, Akbaq Salid'

Akbaq Salid says 'Greetings Umarth! I have recently returned to Erudin since hearing word of the titan spirits that inhabit the Stonebrunt Mountains. Should you be heading in that direction there are some [samples] that I am interested in acquiring.

You say, 'What samples?'

Akbaq Salid says 'The titan spirits of the Stonebrunt Mountains appear in several various animal forms seemingly with different areas of influence in the spirit world. I am interested in conducting some experiments on the hides of the giant leopard titan and the giant sabretooth titan. Once I have acquired those hides I will seek to conduct experiments on the [others].

You say, 'What others?'

Akbaq Salid says 'Once I have finished my studies of the feline titans pelts I am interested in experimenting with the hides of the strongest of the stonebrunt titans, the gigantic gorilla and the gargantuan panda! The [ancient snake] that inhabits those mountains is another matter that you may be interested in as well.

You say, 'What ancient snake?'

Akbaq Salid says 'I believe I have uncovered a process with which to harness the mystical properties of the scales of the snake titan so that they can be fashioned into a powerful robe. If you bring me the ancient snake skin and some platinum thread I am sure there will be enough material to craft multiple robes and I shall reward you with one for your assistance.

There seem to be three rewards here:

1) The hides of the Sabertooth (Snowbeast) and Leopard (Prowler of the Jungle) Titans get you the Astral Cloak of the Titans.
2) The hides of the Gigantic Gorilla (Old Ghostback) and Gargantuan Panda (Giang Yin) get you the Astral Leggings of the Titans.
3) The Skin of the Ancient Snake (off Slyder the Ancient) and a piece of Platinum Thread get you the Scaled Robe of the Elder Serpent. The Skin by itself supposedly gets you the cloak.

Twice when I ran thru Stoneburnt while checking my tracking I've come across Slyder and killed him. Both times I've gotten a newbie shoulder item instead of his skin. I would think with the rarity of his spawns that his skin would always drop. SO does this mean that this quest is no longer in existance?

No, it just means your having difficulty completing it due to the rarity of the drop. Just cuz your having a hard time doesn't mean the quest has been removed.

had a patch this morning and i came in a few hours later, all the tittans were up (but didn't see slyder though). they can't be snared or rooted but can be feared(fear, fear animal). came back tonight and was clearing north east part of zone and had Giang Yin pop, was killing everything but more tigers and monkeys than pandas, so not sure if there is a relationship, now if i can get that hide from the monkey!!!!

Can do quest in any order, it is essentially 3 different quests.

As far as the titans spawning, I hunted there as a ranger from 30-40 almost permanently, and only saw them a very few times, even though I was killing pandas and gorillas...of course at that level I couldn't massacre them, so that might help.

What I do know is that at least one titan usually is in the zone after a patch. So get down there asap on a patch day, because someone usually has the same idea and takes the things down pretty quick.

Locations that I have seen them in:

Giang Yin - roams anywhere north of the kitty village.

Old Ghostback - roams anywhere north of the kitty village, and occasionally a little south of it, but still in the grey slate mountain area.

Slyder - roams everywhere north of the jungle.

Prowler of the Jungle - roams in the jungle, strangely enough.

Snowbeast - seen him all over the place, and he tends to get stuck on the zone edges a lot it seems.

Okay first day on the quest. I spent about 3 hours all around the valley at appprox p3000 n200. Nothing was happening then a ranger gets in trouble, I help him out and he runs far away while im chasing him in his mob.. I take an odd route back and then up on the hill next to the kobold camp is Old Ghostback. I set pet on him and immeadiately he DoTs me(a particulary nasty one called scourge) I didn't have any ofmy shields up so I had low hp. I set my pet on him andI started summoning band-aids and binding myself, pet soloed him easily (51 earth pet with plate armor, burnout, 56 damage shield, and muzzle) and I survived with 16% hp. He dropped the hide and also some Rock Climber's gloves which i gave the loc of to everyone. Tomorrow I'll head back and see if I can get that Panda.

After every campin session I will post here so you can hopefully see what it takes me (a 56 mage) to get the leggings and the cloak. So check back!
RE: Sen's Journey
# Aug 02 2003 at 8:19 PM Rating: Decent
Okay, just spent 2 and a half hours camping that norther valley and a little to the south. I tried to kill pandas mostly, but I would say I killed an equal amount of gorillas and pandas.. I simply just kill Pandas first, if there aren't any other o=Pandas around I killed whatever. In additon I have decided not to pursue the cloak (only the leggings) because the cloak of the wise gives more mana and stats. If the cloak falls into my lap, I'll take it ;)

More to come...
RE: Sen's Journey
# Aug 02 2003 at 1:46 AM Rating: Decent
Please ask for any information you think might help youin your own quest.

The majority of mobs I killed were gorillas, but the majority of mobs around were gorillas.

The last mob I killed before seeing Old Ghostback WAS a gorilla.

Again, please ask questions you think will help yourself
they can be rooted
# Jul 12 2003 at 12:13 PM Rating: Decent
everyone is allways claiming the titans can not be rooted or snared they are half wrong. so far i have killed snowbeast and the big panda bastard and they can be rooted by pet does it no problem

It's easy to raise palace faction, kill the necro by the docks in Toxx and Noclin in Paineel. do that back and forth a few times and your good to most erudin factions. Not to the pali's though so stay invis til you get to the palace, and don't go up to the GM's either, I seem to remember a the Enc GM trying to charm me.

This is as of april 12 2003 on the Tribunal server.

I have been soloing in this zone with my halfling druid for the last week each night from about 6-7pm until about 10pm each night. During this time i am working on my tracking and forging. I did not see any of the titans at all until Friday night but i was hunting the southern part of the zone for the most part of this time. I seen the panda on track. At the time i was killing the panda cubs and young pandas a lot. He was on the northern side of the zone near the tunnel by the water falls. I got a 54 necro guildie to come down to the zone and she kill the panda easy. The pelt and tooth i think droped that time. She got the drops. The next day about 5pm ish i seen Old Ghostback on track. I got my 51 shammie on line and killed him with some help from 2 others in the zone. I got the pelt only nothing else droped. At that time i was killing the Gorillas and cats for exp. Then about 30 min later i seen Old Ghostback back up again. I solo'd him this time and had my halfling druid loot the pelt and tooth off him.

So from what i have gathered here if you want the snake to spawn kill every snake you can find and have a tracker there to track for the titan snake. If you want the Titan Gorilla kill Gorillas and Titan Panda kill Pandas. I can only say this goes for Ghostback and the Panda. I have not seen the Titan snake or the Titan cat as of yet and i am looking to camp the zone for about another 5 levels or so. I am currently level 30 and hope to go to about another 5 plus levels here.*still lots of reds here* If i can prove this i will repost with what i have found out. I will have to do that when i get a little higher in levels and as it stands i have been making a level a night here.

I decided to camp these MOBS our for the night... needed a good pair of leggings and an upgrade from kunzar cloak =D. In 20 minutes i got Ghostback to pop (was camped at p3000 n100), he didnt drop anything. Next (30 minutes later), snowbeast popped, he dropped the hide and pads. 1 Hour later, ghostback spawned again and dropped his hide this time.. Going back tonight to finish up, but i do have to say.... 2 hours and 1/2 quest done, and i picked up pads... NOT BAD !!!

Was on the hunt for the Footpads, brought a druid bot and my monk (both lev 46) and went wandering around 3000, - 200 checking tracking as I went. Found Snowbeast at 3316, 476 then at 1065, 1127 and a 3rd time at 2312, 410. The beast spawns were about 20 min apart. When the 4th one was due Giang Yin Spawn close to 1000, 1100 (forgot to take a loc but was close to 2nd spawn of snowbeast ... the new maping thing helps alot). Footpads dropped twice for me.

Both easy kills, Giang was more of a pain but still not a problem.

I just spent 5 and a half hours looking for these spawns but didnt see a single 1. It wasn't just me either there were 4 others and 2 of them were tracking. We were killing EVERYTHING in sight and had not seen a thing the only good thing we got was a level for one of our group members and an asortment of gems and hides. What are we doing wrong we were stationed at neg 3000 pos 280 and didnt see a thing

The snake and I killed each other when I was a L45 ranger - the slyders poison must be like 1000hp :( So I figured the rest would be super hard but they have all been easy at 52, except prowler who refuses to spawn. Pull them to an open area in the east away from the mountains and then turn levitate off - very hard to hit these guys unless you are at ground level.

Turned in the gorilla and panda skins twice for leggings. I am indiff to the wizard and had done the sejah guhlam bracer that makes all the Erud merchants hate me. So you don't need real high faction. No platinum thread for the leggings and I assume none for the cloak if I can get the prowler. So far the slyder has only dropped a rattle.

The only way to get these Titans to spawn is mass killing. They are Random, Rare Spawns. This means the more mobs that are down at once the better your chances of a spawn. This works good on Grachnist the Destoryer also in Warslik woods. Well Mass killing isnt the only way... unless you have a couple of days to wait on One of them to spawn... and then its a maybe..
Good luck!

PS. the more people in the zone the better they spawn to for some reason.. maybe cause they are killing as well?

I was in SBMnt yesterday and saw group there in certain area killing everything in site. I kept hitting track and kept seeing the Ghostback/Prowler etc popping and them killing them in like 20 secs. They popped like every 10-30 minutes. The area they sat at was a little tiny tiny valley like area around p3000 n100 with tons of elders and the higher lvl animal mobs. Dunno if this might help someone. A friend and I came in today did same trick killing everthing in sight got Ghostback within 7 minutes to pop but then we both had to log. Maybe this is a trick to force spawn. :) happy hunting.

Just did the robe quest. The stats are:

Scaled Robe of the Elder Serpent
AC 8
STR 4
CHA 9
INT 3
SV POISON 15
WT 3.5

NEC WIZ MAG ENC
HUM ERU HIE DEF GNM IKS

Good for chanters for CHA gear. Not good on the INT. Personally, I was hoping it was still broken and would give me a cloak or leggings. Just need to kill Slyder the Ancient and get the Ancient Snake skin. Then port to Thurgadin and buy a Platinum thread (Cost me 250pp).

#Anonymous, Posted: Jul 17 2002 at 10:45 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) is this just a turn in the pelts and your finished quest? or do you need to bring an extra component into the game? if so, how much does it cost and perhaps where can it be bought? if not sweet and thanx

i was looking for etched armor here with my lvl 52 pally, and saw old ghostback, i started killing him and he hits hard, with about 930ac, he was hitting in the low 100s max, he also casts (hes a shammy) tried to slow me but i resisted, i got him to 50% and had to use Lay Hands, finished him off with about 80% health left, all he dropped were the guantlets, not worth it at all since i got silver chitlin handwraps lol, hope this info helps!

I have the two pelts to turn in for the leggings, and I am dubious to the NPC to turn them in to. I can hail him and get the quest, but I was wondering if anyone can tell me the faction needed for this quest? I just don't want to turn in an item and lose it. Thanks.

if you can get the quest you can get the items. if you are really worried raise faction to just above dubious. This should alleviate all fears. If he takes the items after you do this and does not give you the lore items its a bug and should be reported.

I have seen Old Ghosty, Giang Yin, and snowBeast all up at once. All 3 of them spawn in the rocky crater located at pos 2950 neg 300. There are many wandering Mobs, Apes, Tigers and Pandas, all aggrod my Monk.

I spent 3 days there waiting and killing anything wandering by. It will take patientce and some time, but you dont really need a tracker to do this, just camp that loc. A tracker would be nice but not entirely neccesary as the pathing of those 3 Ancients takes them all through the above mentioned crater, hope this helps some

RE: druid doable?

Aye, this is druid doable, but you just need to remember they CANNOT be snared or rooted. Easiest way for me to kill is to open up with my highest DoT, then cast fear on it (remember, these are all animals, and druids have a nice line of animal fear songs).
On the tougher titans (Giang Yin and Old Ghostback), you may want to charm a highland tiger and have him assist you. I find that helps a ton!
I think this is the order of difficulty in the titans, easiest to hardest:
1)Slyder the Ancient (just watch his poison)
2)Prowler of the Jungle
3)Snowbeast
4)Old Ghostback
5)Giang Yin

Only reason I say this order is because old G and giang are blue to me at 57...others are light blue. Plus giang is a caster..

ive spent nearly 20 hours in zone now and this is what i think and have done. most of my time is spent sitting at kejak city tracking (189 skill)ive seen old ghostback, prowler, and snowbeast one time each. ive seen panda 5 times. all were to the north or kejak city and south of kobold camp although panda roams north to south going within druid tracking ranger to the kejak city. prowler was spawned and roaming to the SW of kejak city and not trackable from there only reason i picked him up on track is cause i wonder south to track for him cause i figure "prowler of the jungle" would be in or near the jungle, he also was roaming but i didnt wait to see his pattern cause i was kill happy that we was actually spawned. as far as snow beast and ghostback i only caught a fleeting glimpse of those 2 as both of them and panda was spawned yesterday morning when i logged on to check the pops 15 minutes before i had to be at work. talk about being pissed off. anyways both of them were located in the snowy area and closer to the kobold camp than to kejak city. i observed one and then ran to the other and neither one moved in about 20 minutes time (yes i was late to work) anyways ive killed panda 4 times now, pelt dropped everytime and cloak of the great panda has dropped once. he also dropped a claw item named after him self ( giang whatevers claws) prowler dropped skin and some other VT (words and a silver amulet or something)

in my opinion these spawns are on timers as ive killed and killed and i get no spawns but then i sit in kejak city alone in the zone for 3 hours and panda will pop. also tracking is a must have skill for this, i think someone below already stated this.

ill add more once i kill ghostback and snowbeast for skins and hopefully footpads of the tiger.

one last thing, im pretty sure each of these animals drops like an uncommon drop or maybe even rare item. for the panda it is cloak of the great panda and the claws he dropped today, for the snowbeast its the footpads, for prowler its a pair of leggins. anyone know what slyder and ghostback drop along the lines of what i am saying?

# May 02 2002 at 5:17 AM Rating: Decent
Just to set the record straight

Prowler of the Jungle is a Leapord!
Snowbeast is a Tiger!

Therefore if it does matter what you kill and that each titans PH is the creatures of its type then you need to kill Tigers for Snowbeast and Leapords for Prowler. This in my experience is the case too, I plvled my monk from 38 to 43 there so far with 2 comps my druid on the other for buffs and track. Seen only old ghostback x2 giang yin x1 snowbeast x2

Oh and they seem to drop two skins (NOT LORE!) when they drop them...

Hope that helps someone...

# Apr 26 2002 at 10:51 PM Rating: Decent
This is one of the best quests I have ever seen. I had gotten lucky and killed the big
panda guy a long while back and got his hide. And just now I got my ranger back in
stonebrunt at the kejek city hit on track and boom Panda and Ghostback gorrilla were
up. After I managed to rush my wizard butt over to stonebrunt finally two people
were there and had just killed the panda titan and gotten the hide as well. I asked if
they would help me find Old Ghostback on track and they agreed. Anyway, found it,
nuked it to hell with help of monk and druid and boom, it drops 2 gigantic gorrilla
hides. I took one, they took one and we each got a damn nice pair of leggings for all
our trouble.

Anyway it may have just been the situation that makes me biast on this quest
still the stats on these leggings are such an insane upgrade even if you have
been on planar raids. Leggings for wizards at least in planes usually are filled with
crap stats that you don't need. A solid +10 int slapped on your leg slot like this is
definately godly to any int caster. In other words, if you can get ahold of a tracker
with some patience do this quest, you won't regret it.

ATTENTION: You can multi quest the leggings definately because I just saw it done.
Not sure about the cloak but I doubt it's any different and would work.

Been doing this for 3 days now..tried running around checking track every 10 seconds, now I have found that if you sit at loc p3017, p208
all the titans will pop at sometime or another.
Its best to be in wolf form when engaging in combat ( the gorillas are indifferent then ) look around with lev or SoE. cast resists(all), SLN & I do thorns just because :) as is mentioned cannot be snared/rooted..so as a druid I did the reverse kite thing..with no pet..started with Winged death..then repluse animal..calefaction right away ( due to quick cast time ) the hard part with this is adds..try to move your Titan of choice to the mid zone Grayish flat area. when he breaks fear I hit with a couple of scoriaes (688)one more winged death or so. seemed resistant to breathe of ro ( fire based dot ).

If ya know that they cant be snared..plan on this they run fast about jboot speed..so they are right behind you and they interrupt alot. and hit a soft druid for 100+ But the combined pluses on the 3 items just rocks for this amont of risk

BTW on test, I was the only person in zone for the 2 weeks I farmed there, I have a Enchanter & a Necro that needed the set & I gave the extra legging & robes to Happy newbies, However I only killed when I got argo & the Kolbolds for faction, the Titans seem to be a random pop with Prowler being the rarest, I tried the kill the Like animals thing, and I mean Killin, didnt get spawns any sooner to me..It could be on a Proddie server where there are 30 people in zone.

Still A great quest if ya got some time, but Im happy that I dont ever have to go back there again.

You list stats for the three items combined - does this mean you have an Astral Robe of the Titans? From other peoples' posts it seems like turning in the snake skin and thread doesn't result in the robe... Does it only work on the Test Server, or is it just random between robe or cloak result? How did you get it? :)

Ive done the snakeskin 3 times, got the robe all 3 times. Dont think it would matter about it being on TEST as it is an older quest and therfore already tested. always worked the same Panda & gorilla= Legging
Snowbeast & Prowler= Cloak
Snake & Plat thread=robe

If your gonna do this kill the heretics when ya see em, I wish I woulda, cause Ive seen a bunch and now my faction is too low to do quests for kitties and its a ez haste item, but ya gotta do it a few times---stupid headband

and the robe is called Robe of the Serpent or along those lines. Its green on green with trim of yellow.

Spotted prowler walking around the other day. I called for some of friends and they took him down really fast at the mention of his name about half of their guild was on the scene. Shame i was only 36 at the time or i would have tried myself.
panda kill
# Apr 13 2002 at 12:33 PM Rating: Default
yes, I killed the panda. Still never found the Prowler of the Jungle. I've reported a bug through the game that the spawn for this creature is broken. I obtained a total of 2 gorilla and 2 panda pelts. RL wife has a pair of the leggings. Still trying to sell the other pair. Nobody seems willing to pay the 8k that I'm asking for them. I tell them 8k obo and people freak. These are people that don't have a prayer of being able to do this quest and they turn their noses up to it. These leggs are great. Took me 3 days to get the pelts. And I mean 3 days, 72 hours of playing. One piece of advice about this, do not even attempt this without a tracker. And I'm sorry for all my druid friends, tracking of 125 just doesn't do the job. At lvl 50 I can track half the zone and it still is very hard to find them. Lev is also essential. Otherwise, running through this zone is going to be very hazardous to your pullers health. The more and more I fight in this zone, the more I'm convinced that it's not what you kill, but where you kill. All the titans so far have spawned in the north. Keep killing there and you are bound to come across them. The titans for the legs, which are better and worth more, are easier to get and that's good news. If everyone could report a bug that the prowler of the jungle spawn is broken that would greatly help getting it fixed since verant doesn't seem to have gotten the message. Thanks and good luck.

I saw the Prowler spawn today on Prexus.. i was killing hordes of roaming mobs in the west grey area, southwest of the Kejen town... mostly killing tigers, leopards, and gorillas.

I saw Prowler on my druid's track to the east and slightly south, kind of in the middle of the zone, south and slightly east of the Kejen town. Was light blue to 54 and an easy kill with enc slow and my enc pet beating on it while my chanter tanked (heehee)

Old Ghostback spawned immediately after Prowler went down

spawns
# Apr 08 2002 at 11:08 AM Rating: Default
Ok, here's what happened in my experience. All the spawns were either north or northeast of the town. Giang Yin spawned right by the kobold camp. Old Ghostback spawned north as well as Snowbeast. Haven't seen Prowler yet. To get them to spawn, I just killed the animals of their race. Gorillas for Ghostback, leopards for Snowbeast and pandas for Giang Yin. There are 2 types of tigers in the zone. Not sure which will spawn Prowler. Still working on that. I have been killing lots of highland tigers to no avail so I'm going to switch to the Ejeks and see if that helps. Maybe I'm a little low on the AC, but I'm a 50 ranger and I needed help with heals from a druid friend for this. This is not a quest that you just do in 1 day. It has taken me 3 days so far. I have the leggins, just need to get the Prowler so I can get the cloak. Also, the snake was on the east side of the zone near the water when I spotted him. This does not mean he spawns there however since he was allready up when I came into the zone. But it only makes sense that a snake would be near water or at least in grassy area rather than in the snow. Look for him south of the town, all others are north. Good luck.

picking at tid bit of info....
# Apr 05 2002 at 9:05 PM Rating: Default
Through crude use of algebra i have found through the scrambled jumble of info...

the two titans sabertooth , and giant lepard titan can be sent to a very low health with 2 ice comets, that about 2200-2600 hp arround abouts, and so maybe at the lvls of 45-50 (guess work)

and that the they have a ph. the platiunum thread can be bought in thurgadin and anyone lvl 43 and lower does not have a chance at this quest without help, and that 0-60 lvl range is bull, just because you can turn it in at lvl 1 does NOT mean you can do it at lvl 1. your are simply benefiting from someone elses work.

i am sure somewhere it'l say where you can find the 2 titans (tigers), and possible exact spawn info, but im too tired to try to make sense of some of your posts
Quest available in Paneel as well
# Apr 03 2002 at 2:58 PM Rating: Decent
Last night as I was wandering Paneel I ran into another NPC doing the similar "experiments" who wanted drops from the same creatures. Found him when I went upstairs from the skeletal music band and into a room. NPC standing there that asks you to follow him downstairs where he then gave me the quest...

"fangs of the leopard, sabretooth, and gorilla titans, and the rattle of the snake titan."

Turn in Snowbeasts pelt and Prowler of the Jungle's pelt and you get cloak, turn in Giang Yin's pelt (or whatever the no drop item he drops is) and Old Ghostback's pelts (or whatever the no drop item he drops is) and you get leggings, turn in the scales of Slyder the Ancient and a Platinum Thread (purchased) and you get cloak

You mean you get a "robe" when you hand in Slyder's scales, not a cloak, which you listed twice.

There is no robe as far as I can see. Just 2 ways to get the cloak.

I already went to SBM 3 times looking for these mobs, and couldint find any of them any of the times. Where did u find them when u guys killed? Where were u camping?

THANKS
how do you get em to spawn?!
# Mar 12 2002 at 5:00 PM Rating: Default
i have been wondering around this zone for bout 3hrs+ with my 55 druid and have had no sign of any of the quest mobs...
1)Is this just bad luck?
2)Am I too impatient?
3)Are there any placeholders for the titans?
4)Do they spawn in any particular part of zone or just roam around aimlessly?
