Tower of Frozen Shadow

Since no Angry Librarin is in the bestiary, here is my experience with her.

I port to Iceclad for the first time to be with two guildies, 30 cleric and 36 warrior (31 chanter here att). We enter and go straight to the library. Down the left side, hang a left and camp at the mirror exit for evac. The cleric and warrior had been here about 3 hours previously.

So we camp students for about 30 minutes. During one 4 student mob, after the first kill, the angry librarian pops from a dead student. Oh, btw, did i mention it is hard to mez these guys cause they all stand in same spot? Anyway, we make it thru (woot for crowd control!) and the angry librarian drops the students homework.

Unfortunately, the warrior rolls a 100 on it :(. But I'll be back for my own HW thats for sure.

And i HIGHLY recommend for anyone doing library to dispel, i used Strip Enchantment. All mobs i saw had rune shields on. Once rune is down, they drop like flies (just like us pure casters ;P)

Most of the levels for the mobs listed here are indeed wrong. At level 52 some of the zombies on 4th floor wtill give exp. There are also mobs not listed here. Today we had a group in the tower 49-54 level and were wiped out by something called "a Statue" on the 6th floor. It was casting 500 and 250 point area effects thru the wall at us and killed us all before we ever saw it (wasn't that fun guys?). We were expecting nothing like this since most of the minor mobs had been green adn low blue. Have yet to find any info on this mob...anyone have anything? ps-the armored shadows are by no means in the 20's levels, not sure who gave that info but the are wrong for sure.

Anyone else think an undead wedding is exceedinly creepy? Cant wait till im high enough to come here lol.

Now that i think of it, its actually kinda sad. An enraged relative to come ruin the wedding, everyone is dead, and the saddest part, the people that are getting married dont seem to be there =\

What's the story on ToFS? Far as I can tell it's a school, a library, and a wedding, all at once. Mind you, an undead school, undead library, and undead wedding. So could someone explain this?

What levels are generally on each floor of the Tower. I'm a 31 pally and would like to try this place out... I need money for smithing

does anyone know the spawn time of the incoherent spirit?

I now have all keys to all floors including Tserrina's Key. So I use her key to port from 1 to 7 into a room with 7 mirrors and a locked door. The key to 7 unlocks the door, but what do I do with all these mirrors? If I am looking into the room of mirrors, the one farthest to the right tells me I am not wielding the key (and I tried all keys on it), and all the other mirrors port me outside. That just doesnt seem right. I would have thought that it would port me to a certain floor based on which mirror I click.
What am I doing wrong?

Ok, heres some well needed info. The keys that drop usually pop after a random PH is killed, Large Undead gnolls drops the frist key, it takes about15-30 min to get this key. Next key drops of THE angry librian, she is a rare spawn, it took me 3 or 4 hours to get this one of consistant camping, when my group killed her she only dropped the key.Next is the Enraged Shadow Beast, he is a uncommon to rare spawn which my group has not been able to locate yet,you should go to the bedroom where the zone out mirror is, which is safe if I pull to many,watch out for armored shadows, they have TONS of HP,Gnome skin drops often, seen 2 bracers, 1 glove, and 1 mask so far, gloves are good,ill post more about the 4th floor

This probably sounds like a dumb question but, where do you get the key to the first floor? I tried to enter the tower but wouldn't let me without a key? pls advise

Is this a bring-your-own-group kind of place or can i just walk in and /shout lvl 44 mage looking for group?

Here are my observations after spending the last couple of days hunting the Tower. I am a lv 45 Iksar Shaman on the TZ server.

General: Most of the mobs here have a ton of hit points, and hit for a bit more than their level, but hey, that's Velious :)

First Floor: The key to 2nd level drops off the Large Undead Gnoll. Like most of the keyholders, he pops immediately after you kill his placeholder, which can be any mob on this level. Invis vs undead works on this whole floor. Watch for the very slippery floor in the middle room.

Second Floor: The Angry Libarian (note spelling) spawns after killing any mob on the second floor. I have had him pop from various mobs here, so best bet is just to pull em all. Almost all the mobs here are casters; wizards and necros mostly. The Libarian, a necro, drops the Student's Homework and the Teachers Syllabus, both desired items. Invis vs undead works on this whole floor. Zorglim the Dead also sometimes spawns in any random spot. He dropped Crystallized legs. The exit back to Iceclad is behind a sliding bookcase in the far left corner as you zone in.

Third Floor: This floor has a mix of gnolls, skels, animated armors, and regular undead. The armors are not affected by invis undead, so before zoning into the 3rd have everyone put on regular invis, as there should be a roaming armor quite close to the zone in point. Best bet is to head the whole party to the undead maid's room, right by the zone out, and clear that area and pull into there. The Enraged Shadowbeast drops the next key, and I have had him pop out of every mob on the floor. Killed him 4 times and he dropped the Velium ring each time (as well as they key, of course). Another mob of note here was the Angry Chef, a really hideous looking hag caster (only caster on this level). She spawned in place of one of the armors, and dropped Crystallized legs. The gnolls on this level drop no plat, all other mobs are generous. The armors have more hit points than the other (already upped) mobs here.

Fourth Floor: This place is a maze with pits that drop you into a dungeon. Clicking on a firepot in the central dungeon room will teleport you to the zone-in point on this floor. In spite of the mummies and the shadows, regular invis works on all the mobs on this floor, and the aggro range is pretty high, so make sure all are invised before heading there. In order to exit this floor back to Iceclad, you must open a door with the same key that you used to get to this floor. This means that unless you or someone with you has the key, your only way out is gate. This is troublesome if your party gets wiped somewhat and the survivors have no keys. The key to the next floor is dropped by Cara Omica, a lv 42 wizard with really nice resistances (another real ugly hag, by the way). I couldn't land anything on her worth squat. She can be tanked down no problem as long as healing is available. She always spawns in the coffin room, the last big room before the zone to fifth floor. She is a triggered spawn; you must kill Amonphetra (a named mummy) and then Cara pops immediately. Amonphetra is a cleric, and can be made to spawn by killing any mummies on this level. Amonphetra can exist at the same time as Cara Omica; they are not exclusive. Someone told me they had a couple of Amonphetra's up at the same time. Each time Amonphetra dropped the Sparkling Soul Necklace. In order to reach Cara's room, follow the right wall from the moment you zone in, and walk past shadows through the illusory wall. Another mob of note is Nermak Berreka, a SK armor that pops in place of one of the shadows that hang out by the illusory wall. He drops a book and a nifty shield.

Hope this was useful somewhat. Going to 5th soon.

Named mummy, yellow to me at 44, hits hard, but like most undead not very fire resistant.

Spawns on the same floor as Cara, prolly triggered random spawn, as I have seen multiple Amons up when the floor is busy and trash MOBs are being cleared regularly.

I need more info on the angry Librarian. we have camped this floor a dozen or so times and can not get it. we have even cleared the entire library several time's in a row..... any info on how to make her spawn, or how u have done it it would be apprecieated.

There is a static spawn on level 5 that spawns the enraged relative every time. It is an UNDEAD USHER and spawns at random with the golem ushers. Now be careful as you can have more than one enraged relative at a time, our group was just barely lucky enuff to kill the first and loot it as a second spawned and we evaced. It has a powerful attack and is definitely the most dangerous on that level.

That would also explain how invis would not work sometimes when running by the golems, as if it is undead you need invis vs undead to get by, which in turn is negated by ones you need regular invis for.
