#REDACTED, Posted: Jul 08 2004 at 4:34 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Can a group of 59 Shadowknight (5.7k hp buffed), 58 ranger (epicced), 64 shm (me, epicced), 57 paladin, 63 monk (epicced), and a cleric (pickup cleric, or a friend, probably 60+) take Junkbeast?
Coincidence?

JunkBeast wanders from the 1st large scrapyard to the left of the zone-in (which is past the factory), and from there, left down the path towards Xanamech's room. I've seen him 5 times total, each time in differant places between the two points. He usually ends up pathing around a room, but I have seen him on the path once.

Curiously, the busted power carrier also roams that particular path, or one similar to it. Could they be related? I've killed the BPC a few dozen times trying to prove a link, but so far no success. Haven't been able to put a really good block of time into it, just stabbed at killing the BPC once or twice every few days.
How/where does JB spawn ??

I am close to completing this quest, but for 3 weeks now I haven't seen the Junk Beast spawn.

I have tried to sapwn him a couple of times and got 2 grps of 65's (yes complete overkill) left past the factory entrance to the xroad and entered the room to the right there. There we killed the degrading guardians and all the mobs outside the room and in the vicinity of that Junk Yard, but after 3 hours of killing all the mobs there, the Junk Beast still didn't show up.

Am I killing the mobs at the wrong spot? Is there a PH I need to kill to make the JB spawn?

Any information is greatly appreciated.

Does JB actually spawn in the enclosed room? or does he spawn at the intersection just outside...I'm hearing conflicting info.

Any help would be great!
He has PHers

Was in a group to try to get this guy one day... when you enter zone take left and go past entrance to Factory then go into first room on right from there.. Kill the Degrading Guardians over and over again and he should spawn... took us about an hour to spawn him... when he spawns he walks from that room the Guardians are in to the area Xanamech is located at...

I was in a raid last night after Xanamech Nezmirthafen and this guy wandered into us just at Xan's door.

The blind and shadowstep is a pain. I wasn't as directly involved in the fight though, because I was keeping the gnome mezzed so he didn't go wake the dragon. We lost a cleric during the fight, but otherwise, went fine.

He dropped the corroded steel plate.

Junk Beast uses the effects Tetanic Blades and Blinding Smog.

It appears the Stun portion of Tetanic blades isn't working (at least, not for 18 seconds), but it was the only spell I could find in Lucy that had the same "wears off" message I got and had the same debuff icon I had on me.

Edit: Proofreading is a good thing.

Killed Him
# Oct 02 2003 at 12:29 PM Rating: Default
Dropped him today with a 65 war, 65 enc, 64 cleric. DPS was a charmed prototype, who later dropped sheetmetal ulak. Max hit was 980 something, doubled, slowed very easily, blind wasnt really that big of a deal just use your function keys to target the tank and cast cheal when you're blind no matter what. No rotation is needed, once this guy is slowed he's gimp. he dropped broken drive belt, eth parch, and power source. happy hunting

Hey vrs, where did u kill the junk beast? random spawn or a specific place? seems nobody is sure about this.
RE: Killed Him Again
# Oct 15 2003 at 11:47 PM Rating: Default
killed him again with 65 war, 65 enc, 64 cleric, and a 65 druid. Dropped corroded steel plate, ethereal, and power source. Had problems with pops this time, you need to make sure you kill him fast. we had to ninja loot and evac, enchanter died at the end of the fight.

we killed him when doing the dragon the other day, he spawned right outside of the dragons area. warrior in my group sacrificed himself to save the gnome... and he went down pretty quick.

Spawning

I'm about 99% sure That the Junk Beast Is a random Spawn, that will spawn from the Corpse of ANY MOB in PoInnovation. As i've seen this guy Spawn First hand, TWICE, I can say it seemed pretty random and Both times he spawned the moment and right on top of a Mob that we had just killed. Both Times were also on way to Xana Raid, not sure if that has any connection, but just wanted to throw that in there.

yeah right after an easy x-mech kill he popped on us last night. no one knew he was even there till he did his AoE blind.
WTF?!?
# Aug 13 2003 at 10:33 PM Rating: Default
Ok well on our way to go kill Xana we ran into the junk beast We had no problems killin him and moved on to kill Xana. After a mostly secsussful raid in where only a few died including the MT(took 3 consectutive 1000+ hits) and a very good lookin 65 enchanter who got to much aggro off of tash died(hes ok now). So after i got my rez I finished zoning back in and then i see Junk Beast
AGIAN?!? So the cle were low on mana and other adds were commin. Needless to say we wiped on Junk Beast after the raid.

Need Specific Info about Junk Beast spawn
# Jul 13 2003 at 2:43 AM Rating: Default
Looking for current verifiable information about this spawn. No speculation or guessing please, only post if you've SEEN this spawn first hand. Need the location, roaming area / range, direction from zone in (left towards/past factory, or right towards xanamech dragon encounter). I've read many posts that are very contradicting about this spawn. Is it now a forced spawn or is it still a timed spawn based on it's own fixed location without a PH, or with a PH. Specifics only please. Thanks!
RE: Need Specific Info about Junk Beast spawn
# Jul 17 2003 at 8:14 AM Rating: Decent
I'm surprised you haven't just figured out where it spawns by now... I have the pleasure of the damn thing spawning behind my group and blinding us.. then just happend to FD, and was going to log cuz i thought my video just went out LOL.. but it came back just in time to watch this damn thing run right thought our group..

It spawns close to the left scrap yard.. just take the left path from the GY, then when you come to the big open area, take another left to the next open area..

I believe its on a spawn timer.. just hope that if your group goes over to that area that it doesn't spawn around you.. LARGE freaking agro range.. I got hit for over 900hp, when i ran up to it to take a pic after my group died..

Have fun.. oh and yes its lvl 60..

# Aug 26 2003 at 5:39 AM Rating: Decent
Can you give a LOC on this exact spot please?

kinda have an idea where you are talking, but the more specific the better if possible.

Any info on the PH / no PH angle?
RE: Need Specific Info about Junk Beast spawn
# Jul 15 2003 at 12:56 AM Rating: Decent
Did not actually see it pop, but ran into it quite a ways down the left side from the zone in, well past factory ramp. He was in an open area that I'm told was called the junkyard. We were not in the yard, but back down the alley slightly, yet it still agro'd us from a much farther distance that un-named mobs do. I don't think it will wander too far up the alley, if at all though. Never seen it up there, and been well down left side several times

Edit: We did kill A busted power carrier one mob before seeing him inc, but I couldn't say there was a connection between the two with any certainty since we had no tracker with us. Wiped our exp group very quickly...came back with 10 people, got it down to 40 before I went down (57 Warrior) due to the beasts big agro range and the fight starting at entrance to Junkyard instead of up the alley a bit, so we had adds. Rest of force went quickly after that

Any clue wellcome
# Jun 13 2003 at 9:44 AM Rating: Decent
Any of u have seen it recently.

I track it intensively for over a month with no chance at all.
It seems not to pop at all.

Pop seems to have been replace by PH pop ?
Can Aargile post be confirmed by any other info ?
Do we have to wait to see it up before going for it or must we go and stand camp killing PH to make it pops ?

Any clue of any type is wellcome.

I am on MT servor and only need this part to complete my 3d book.

Where has the JB been moved to? We just wasted a ton of time going to the place described in previous posts and he's not there.

We were gonna try the factory, since he seemed to track in that direction, but an xp group ******* us out when we set foot inside it, saying they had the whole Factory...
Seen him lately?

Anyone seen this guy lately? Been looking for him for weeks and not a peep. VtS and Rallius have been easy, but this guy has become a bottleneck.

I can answer one question for you. As a druid, I could track him from Zone in.
Question...
# Oct 26 2002 at 4:30 PM Rating: Default
How do you get him to spawn? Is he just a random spawn, or is he triggered?

When PoP first came out, and people started going into PoI, the Junk Beast would spawn not to far from the zone in, and it seemed every 30 minutes or so after it was killed. But, sadly, after the first patch they moved him further in (go left from the zone in, through about 30 mobs) and you will come to an opening from the narrow path. There you will see a large door on the right side (filled with Weathered clockworks, Degrading Guardians, and Corrupted Systems), and you will notice the path picks up again straight ahead and another branches to the left.
If you have a tracker with you and JB is up, don't go into the large open area, because this joker friggen' roams now, and he will quickly send a group or two back to the graveyard if not ready for him. Instead, once you reach this point (you can still see him from the path you came up roaming in that open glade) clear all the mobs there and pull him back to the path your on. There are several others that need to be picked off before you pull him, or you will get adds, which are not fun when fighting something that AE blinds and knockbacks.

Hope that answers your question...

Oh, and I almost forgot, it seems like 8 hours or more on his spawn. Could be more or less, but it's nothing like it was before.
Can be turned in when dubious
# Oct 26 2002 at 4:30 PM Rating: Default
Turned em in UNSTACKED. Didn't try stacking em. Stacking em at all seems to be a problem in Katta.

Kroldar is at p143, n2082, and on the second floor of the building he's in.

No need to chat with him before turning the stuff in either.

Hullo! What in god's name does this have to do with the Junk Beast? You're talking about Katta? I want rebate. Junk Beast spawn in Katta? It do??? Tree got bones??? No. Pull it together woman.

Doable with one solid group... 60+ warrior tanking with defensive brings his max hit down to about 551... get him slowed ASAP and watch for adds. His aggro radius is ENORMOUS so keep your distance when prepping for him.

I seems that during one of the upgrades of the website, several posts got scattered to the wind, landing where ever the saw fit. The post likely came from some other thread and was an unsuspecting victim of the tornado.
RE: Can be turned in when dubious
# Mar 27 2003 at 4:55 AM Rating: Decent
if hes only 60 then that means that Paladin Force of Akilae and Quellious Words of Tranquility stuns will land on him... about 15seconds of stuns, long enough for shaman to cast malo and slow. So no you dont need a warrior at all... assuming that the spells do land on him... ive gotten them to land on level 65 in Plane of storms minis, and level 62 mobs in Plane of nightmares named spiders and level 62horse mob at the hedge, and even on the named in Bastion of Thunder level 65 giants. You can even go as far as having chanter rune tank to bring down damage, but stuns usually is overkill not to mention its instant agro so slowers dont get any agro at all
