Dagnor's Cauldron

Drops Fabled Barnacle covered paldron, nice stats for the level, but unlike the original version is not dru usable.

Also conned even to my 30th level druid.. so he was 30th level.

I'd have just posted this as reply, but my browser is being pissy.

I also spotted this mob in Dagnor's and tried to give it a go solo. He stunned me quickly, hit a few times for max of 300's and the cold nuked me for 1200.

Got a guildie to come summon my corpse from the water (he's a water dragon, looks like fayd in Timorius) and we got a group to try to take him out. While we were setting up to pull he despawned.

About 20 min later I gated back just to see if he was around, and he was back up. We put together a single group (War/SK/Cleric/BL/Wiz/Dru, all 65 and with EP gear) and went after him.

His ae stuns, and he either has a second AE that causes you to become drunk (I didn't even notice this with an alcohol tolerance of 173, but two of the group were smashed quickly). The stun lasts about 15 sec, however he didn't seem to hit much if at all while we were stunned. After it dropped we were able to engage for probably close to a min before he stunned again (I dont rememeber the name of the stun, but one of our group looked it up and said it was actually mez based, with a -1000 to the check; magic based. And yes, I said -1000).

The hardest part of the fight was that it was underwater (visuals suck) and that he runs at a couple points (he ran twice). cant remember the specific HP.

Worst thing is, we were joking before hand that he was probably just a Zerker epic mob.. and guess what?? All he dropped was a "tarnished axe," no drop, lore, no stats. So I'm guessing we were right.

Sure was fun to take out a new mob though =)

On my way to PL my necro in unrest I ran into a blue con at 65 snake named Jagged...something. Being a shaman, thought i could maybe solo it. Was indifferent and didn't respond to hails so i went for it. Well..immune to slow =) Got it to about 43% before i bailed. Has a decent amount of HP and seems to regen a bit fast. So then i logged on my 65 pal/cleric and ran them there quick like hoping he was still up. Found him, killed him. Dropped a poison scale or something like that. MAGIC NO DROP, no stats or anything. Most likely for a quest. If anyone has more on this, please post. Thanks

PS. also immune to snare and summons so i wouldn't recommend kiting it

also, he seems to path around the whole zone, i first saw him on the way to unrest with shm, when i got there with pal/cler and my 55 tp slave druid, i tracked him to the island in the middle with all the npcs. Was even con to druid at 55

Please read this story, I put a lot of time into it...
*******************************************
Ever since I started playing EverQuest, I've always wanted to discover something that nobody else has before, which isn't very likely. After a month or so of playing I pretty much gave any hope of finding any hidden or undiscovered part of the game. But one early morning, though I can't exactly explain why, a little spark ignited inside me. I hade a sudden urge to explore almost neglected areas of the game. I made several low level characters to do this for me, so I didn't risk losing my hard-earned equipment. I made a Dwarf Rogue and daringly explored Timourous Deep (found a secret island with some merchant on it, but was dissapointed to find people tell me it was for some monk quest or something when I shouted), Butcherblock Mountains(got lost and was forced to commit suicide), and then Dagnor's Cauldron. The only thing I knew about the place was that it was a passage to the once popular Unrest and Kedge Keep, which I don't know much about. This is where it gets interesting...

After traveling a seemingly endless winding slope down to the Lake, it seemed I had a few choices.I was the only person in the zone at the time. I could swim down in the lake and see what was there, go to a little island in the center of the Lake, or try to find Kedge Keep. I decided to see what was on the island first. All I found was a Dwarf NPC. After that, a mid-level druid had entered the zone and was on his way to Unrest. I hurried over to intercept him. He gave me a few helpful spells (SoW,Levitate,Invis, and Enduring Breath, along with a spell along the line of Skin like X). I decided to use my enduring breath while it lasted, and to swim to the bottom of the Lake to see what was down there. I couldn't see where I was going, but I eventually found my way to an entrance. I had never seen the entrance to Kedge Keep, and assumed that was it. It looked like the tunnel that connects East Commons to Northern Ro, but smaller. I swam through it, adrenaline pumping. When I recieved the message
LOADING, PLEASE WAIT...
I waited patiently for the computer to load into the zone. When the screen "unfroze" I was suprised to see that there was a message on my screen that said...
You have entered the Northern Desert of Ro.
It was still early in the morning, so I rubbed my eyes and looked again.
The same message was on the screen.
At this point I was very excited and couldn't think straight. I swam forward through the tunnel until I came to the end of it. Now believe me or not, the choice is yours to make, but this is what I saw...
The zone of Northern Ro, but completely underwater. There were a few other people in the zone, but they were shouting normal things like "LVL 10 warrior looking for derv group"
I swam over to where the normal Cutthroat wall camp would be. But it was empty. I swam around aimlessly. The zone unmistakeably Northern Ro, a carbon copy but underwater. The fisherman huts were there, but where the beach would normally be there was a large stone wall like on the opposite side of the zone. There was an opening in the wall. I swam through a few tunnels when I came to a room with mermaids and sharks in it, yes thats right mermaids and sharks. Though they weren't exactly on good terms with each other. The sharks were attacking the mermaids, and they were outnumbered. I got the message...
a mermaid says "If you value your life stranger, get away from here."
The sharks were ripping these lovely women apart. I was feeling sensitive, so I started to attack the sharks. They were eviscerating me, but I hung in there. Suddenly I started nailing the things. They went down fairly fast. I had a sliver of life left, I would surely die and my exciting adventure would come to an end. The mermaids casted heal on me, and a cleric DD spell on the sharks, so I assume they were paladins. Hot paladins at that. Soon the tide of battle had changed. I gained a level from killing two sharks. Not too long after my arrival at level 2, the battle was over. I looted two piercing weapons with the stats...

The mermaids thanked me, and asked me...
"Want to see something that will [change your life]?"
I took the message the wrong way, and through trembling fingers I typed...
"I want to see something that will change my life."
When she replied...
"Follow me then"
Slightly dissapointed at the message I realized it was a only a game. But I had no reason to be dissapointed at what she took me to. She lead me to a room full of crystals, much like the crystals in the dwarven mines near the bank in Kaladim. But these glowed like the blue from a healing spell. The mermaid said...
"Go on, take one."
I clicked on one of the crystals. It made a colorful spell effect graphic that looked like a combination between a healing spell and a multicolored high level HP/AC buff like Skin like Nature or such. Then an item appeared on my cursor that looked like a glowing black stone. I put it in my inventory, and immediately looked at it's stats. Which read...

When I equip it it casts a blue light that looks exactly like the healing spells but doesn't have a sound.
The mermaid then said...
"I hope this aids you on your travels little one."
I was bound to be the best swimmer in all of Norrath. I bid them farewell, then swam out of the tunnels and back into the "main area" of Northern Ro. I swam to one of the buried-in-sand towers. I swam to the floor of it. There was another secret passage! What now, I thought. I swam through the tunnel. Again, I got the message.
LOADING, PLEASE WAIT...
and then...
You have entered Erud's Crossing.
I went through a winding tunnel which was, again, like the one in East Commonlands, but there were a few differences. Firstly, it was absolutely colossal, and huge granite pillars supported the cieling of the tunnel. The floor was cobblestone with some weeds growing out of it. Secondly, there were maps of each continent on the walls. These maps were in the form of huge murals painted on the walls. I proceeded down the eerie corridor, until I came to an even bigger room. This room had a few erudites in it called
"an erudite scholar"
There were several glass (I guess it was glass) tank type things holding sharks, a large turtle like Lodizal, and one enormous pirahna, among a few other interesting sea creatures like absolutely gigantic snakes. They paced back and forth muttering things like
"hmm.." and "thats interesting"
I hailed on of them and got no reply. I went down the hall a bit farther until I came to a large stairway. At the top of the stairway was an erudite caster type, named Loremaster Voraelis. He was in a white and blue robe, and had a staff that was on fire like the SoulFire. I hailed him and he said.
"Have you come here to learn of the [ancient lore] of Norrath?"
I replied...
"I wish to learn the ancient lore of Norrath."
He handed me a book that looked like the Testament of Vanear. I opened it up and was upset to find the text in gibberish, which only ment I didn't know the language in which it was written in. I said...
"I can't read this"
The erudite cast a spell that looked like a teleport spell. Then it said...
"Ancient knowledge fills your mind"
I opened up my skill thing under Persona and scrolled down the the language section. It had every language skill maxed out, and one that I never heard of before called Ancient. I opened up the book to check to see if I could read it, of course I could. I didn't have time to look through it now though. The erudite then said...
"This is and ancient family heirloom. I have no use for it, for I never go into battle. But for an aspiring little adventurer such as yourself could do great things with a relic such as this. Here, take this and use it to help you gain knowledge of the world. This is what it was...

He then said...
"Go through this hallway if you wish to continue your journey, and return to me when you have learned the true history of Norrath."
That't exactly what I did. There was an endless flight of stairs...then a cliff. At the bottom of the cliff was the water. The cliff was the size of the cliff in Paineel that goes to The Hole, only this had a huge, majestic waterfall that rolled off the edge of the cliff into the sea. "This is gonna be fun." I thought. I switched to Third Person view, and laughed as I watched my pitiful dwarf flail his arms helplessly as he fell into the blue abyss of the sea. He fell for roughly 10 seconds then plunged into the water. There was a small bag at the bottom of the sea floor. I clicked on it and I found that it was actually an item of value...

I went through a brick passage and found myself staring at yet another...
LOADING, PLEASE WAIT...
as I stared at the message I thought where the next section of my adventure would take place. Then I got my answer.
You have entered Southern Felwithe
I found myself in a river being swept swiftly downstream. Then I plunged down a large waterfall into one of the pools. Though this wasn't the fluffy love bunny city of Felwithe that I was used to. The water was black, the buildings were in ruin, the sky was red, and instead of ivy creeping up the stone walls, giant veins took their place. Certainly this had been turned into a kind of worship site for Cazic Thule. Undead high elves roamed around the city. I made a mad dash for the paladin's guild, skillfully avoiding the disturbing elves. I successfully made my way into the Paladin's guild. There was a small resistance group in there. I hailed them and they said something like...
"Cazic Thule has corrupted Felwithe, and will soon do the same to the rest of the world if we do no act quickly. You must help us defeat the minions of Cazic Thule while some of the leaders attempt to kill Cazic Thule himself. I have gathered some leaders from Kelethin, our Cleric friends, and some highly skilled spellcasters from North Felwithe. We will be the party to destroy Cazic. You will not be alone in your battle. Some young paladins, clerics, and spellcasters, as well as some of our wood elf friends from Kelethin, will join with you to destroy some of the lesser minions of Cazic and our fallen High Elf friends. I have armed them with some armor that was made for the more skilled members of the resistance, but I give you a suit of armor for your battle against the powerful minions of Cazic Thule."
The armor was called Defender's Ringmail _______
Since there was a full set of it, it would take me to long to post all of it here. But it had good ac and a few skill mods. Some had effects too. I was assigned to be the leader of the lower end npcs. Not long after we had all gotten our armor, a horde of High Elf zombies came pouring in through the paladin guild entrance. We were all forced to fight. One zombie would have sliced my head clean off if one of the wood elf archers hadn't dug an arrow into it's skull. We defended the guild from the invading undead for quite some time. After the little invasion was over, a small squad of 5, me a npc cleric, wizard, and a wood elf ranger,and a wood elf warrior were assigned to clear the shops and inns of undead. The higher level npcs would go to the north part of town, near the entrance to Greater Faydark and kill Cazic Thule. Then they would rendevouz at the paladins' guild. The warrior died, and shortly after the wizard died. They were both killed by a group of ogres. I gained several levels in the first 10 minutes. We cleared out 3 more shops and I got to level 10. I couldn't backstab yet, but I happened to find a halfling rogue NPC hiding in one of the rooms in an inn that would teach me to backstab. After we cleared out the shops, we gathered hiding people and took them to the paladins' guild where we guarded them, and gave them food and drink. The cleric cast heal spells on them. I was level 13 when we were back at the paladins' guild. My halfling rogue friend tought me to dual wield and I can attack with both of my shark teeth now. This will make me much more effective. More undead and ogres poured in through the paladin guild door. I got tired fighting them, and I also got rich. Many of them were wealthy undead people from the palace and had lots of money with them, along with fine jewelry. After we were finished defending the Guild, there was a yell from the paladin guild leader. They needed help at the bridge. I ordered some people to stay in the guild and defend the helpless people, and got a group of my own to help kill Cazic Thule. The halfling rogue Tobik came with a few others. When we got to the bridge, Cazic was shredding the high level npc's to pieces. I climbed up on top of the castle while Tobik tied a rope around Cazic's feet. I jumped on top of Cazic's head and viciously stabbed him in the head. Then I buried my shark teeth into his ears. Then I tied a rope around Cazic's neck and descended from the top of his head down his frontside, since his back was full of spikes. I sunk my ancient shark tooth into his frontside as I let go of the rope and fell down the front side of his body holding onto the shark tooth buried inside his frontside. Some fastened a boulder to the end of the rope around his neck, and around his legs, while the wood elfs riddled Cazic's body with arrows. I helped push the boulder off of the bridge into the water, and the group that had the boulder attached to the rope tieng his feet together pushed the boulder off the other side of the bridge. Cazic was being streched like plastic wrap. His head dangled over the water. I climbed on his neck, and thrusted my weapon into his neck until his head plunged into the river. The instant Cazic died, the skies returned to blue, the water to a clear-light blue color, and the giant viens turned back to ivy. The city had to be restored but they had released it from Cazic's grip. The High Elves showered me with gems and gold and jewelry, and most of all cheering. That was when there was a loud screeching noise in the air. There was a large blue object moving fast in the direction of Felwithe. It was a dragon. But somehow it didn't look like it wanted to charbroil the high elves and himself. It looked somewhat friendly. It got bigger and bigger as it approached, then came to a screeching halt at the bridge. There was a piece of paper that said
"a gift to the dwarven hero".-Voraelis
The dwarf hopped on the dragon, and signaled for Tobik to come along. Tobik crept out from a nearby corner, then got on the blue dragon. The high elves waved goodbye to their two rogue friends as the dragon took off into the sky. The dragon flew them over Felwithe, flying low in the Butcherblock Mountains, Steamfont Mountains, and Lesser Faydark. I also got a glimpse of Dagnor's Cauldron, where the adventure started. I fastened 2 ropes to the dragon's harness and then made 4 little loops in each rope, for my hands and feet.
I stood on the foot loops and hung onto the hand loops, and Tobik cautiously did the same. Then we jumped off the dragon. We were hang glidin' over Norrath! We could see the Feerrot, the Desert of Ro, which looked like it normally did, a desert, they could see the Commonlands, the Plains of Karana, HighKeep, the snowy land around Halas, Freeport, Qeynos, and then they flew low over Rivervale. Tobik was terrified, and wanted to go home. The dragon flew low, then Tobik wriggled out of the loops and plopped onto the ground. Then I got out of the loops and stepped onto the ground of the Misty Thicket. I decided I liked it here and decided to stay for a while. In one of the packs on the dragon there was an item called...

That is the end of my little dwarf rogue's adventure.
****************************************
I hope you enjoyed my story because it took me a while. My hope of doing something unique in EQ actually came true. The best part of the adventure was finding something new and having fun, not the loot. Thats what I hope you learned that there is more to do than level level level and get good items and everything. Theres a secret passage that connects every city by water, all you have to do is look for it.

The "New Mob" you're talking about is for a paladin quest. It starts in ButcherBlock, by the docks, with a dwarf who's fishing. It's a LONG quest, called the Chalice of Conquest, I think. Anyway, you can look it up under quests. Good hunting to all (except for the dark elves)

Anyone know the location of Barnacle bones?

is this a well place for level 14 and up

Rumors have it that either close or at the edge of the island that is off the shore of Dragnor's Cauldron an underwater city used to be there, no one really discovered t and I know for a fact that it's not Veksar's City, cause they say it's in Lake of Ill Omen. If any High Level's eye catches this post, please put a good score on it and then check out what this whole thing is about and then reply thank you...
