Sir Lucan D`Lere [ Warrior Guildmaster ]  

After studying the methods, taking advice from different friends, and practicing a few pulls, my guildmates and I successfully defeated Sir Lucan Dlere. Here's what we did:

As a non-KOS 51 paladin, I walked into the milita house and targeted Lucan but stayed in the adjacent room to avoid playing with another door.

With SoW on, I opened the door to the main hall, then cast a stun spell (resisted but no matter) through the CLOSED door to his room, and ran like lightning.

I ran out the west gate and to the south wall as far as I could before zoning, with Lucan and about 5 guards in tow.

One non-KOS person continually hailed Lucan to keep him in place, despite his desire to chase a few rats.

Slowly, the other guards returned to their posts.

I zoned back in and we proceded to beat the pudding out of Lucan.

Somewhere between his 40% and 20% health, we made the call for everyone to zone, while a 52 ranger and me (51 paladin) finished the kill and took the faction hit.

Lucan slowly fled towards the gate, closer and closer to the guards, and with his high magic resistance, he could not be snared.

During this fleeing, I kept waiting for Brother Jentry to appear, but he apparently was out of range from our pull spot, or we got lucky; Jentry did not show to do any complete healing. Also no other guards were in range to assist him, despite his fleeing frighteningly close to the gate.

Finally, Sir Lucan went down, spawning the undead Lucan in the spot of his corpse. True to form, this undead Lucan went down in a hurry.

I wish to give a special thanks to my guildmates in The Ring of the Light (Firiona Vie server) for helping - Invinoveritas, Ivvy, Kbdar, Leedor, Ozborne, Telorea - thank you all! I also wish to thank Bakanome for his advice and his suggestion to pull Lucan to the south wall. I want to wish all you paladins good luck in your fight, and if you seek to battle Sir Lucan on Firiona Vie server, give me a yell.

I play on the Firiona Vie server where if a MOB cons green, you don't get magic or lore items for killing it. After reading several posts here about Lucan's undead version, many seem to say the skeleton is an easy kill. This leads me to believe the skeleton might not be as high as the live version of Lucan. I'd hate to go kill Live Lucan only to find out that Undead Lucan is green and I get no Testimony.

Can anyone verifiably inform us of the level of the Undead Lucan?

60 pally and I (52 pally) took down Lucan last week, was a piece of cake. Crusader pulled the militia house one by one all the way to Lucan. Killed them all, then we pulled Lucan. He was no problem at all to us. Was a fun fight!

Good luck to all you pallies out there! 8)

I'm a 44 paladin on the bristlebane Server. I've decided to start working on my Soulfire quest (I know, a little late). Anyway. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions as to what group structure would be best and what method I should use to kill him. Help will be greatly appreciated.

BTW - Someone mentioned earlier that you can turn in your Soulfire on the plane of sky. Is this true and if so how do I do it when I reach 46?

Our guild (well group) killed him yesterday on Xev. The skeleton version spawned also and our Pally got the item he was looking for.

This might be dumb, but would it be possible just before Sir Lucan is dead to root and DOT him, and then everyone zone out....That way he dies from DOT while noone is in zone and noone gets the faction hit....Then a new group (or just someone with sow) keeps skelli busy until the original group can zone back in and repeat the process? That way maybe noone gets the KOS faction hit.....Or was this just a dumb idea? hehe

Ok, there seems to be a rumor on my server that wild dog here has not spawned in several days. I have been watching for him and routinely had whatever Bard or Druid with track is available to try and get him on track.. Any ideas.. Does he still pop in the same room as Jentry.. Any help would be appreciated. I have found nothing yet to give me any idea what is happening.. Did they change the spawn time on him??

The best way i've found to fix faction in East AND West Freeport is to hunt Gnolls and Orcs in Highhold Pass, and to Hunt Goblins in Highkeep. By turning in Orc Scalps, Gnoll Scalps, and Goblin Ears, you get faction with a whole bunch of the shadier groups in EQ, including the Freeport Militia and the Corrupt Queynos Guards.
It may take a while, but it's a good way to raise faction with several evil groups, and the Gobs, Orcs, and Gnolls are quite easy to dispatch if you're a high enough level to even consider doing this quest

Have killed him twice with this method. Used 2 level 51 Pali's (already kos in W. FP from helping others kill him) and a 51 Druid. First buffed up, then invised pali's. One pali go pull Lucan to zone and then zone when lucan is at the zone we had wolf form so had to wait for him (them) to catch up. We pulled to the North FP zone closest to bank(after we cleared the guards near zone a few light blues easy kills). Non-kos druid chain hails him to keep him at zone till pulling pali zones back and attacks, and both palis attack. Druid runs back towards spawn spot and finds Brother Jentry almost back to militia building. Druid Dots Brother and then brings him near the little pond area just around the corner from the militia ( the place where the vernder lady is at near a wagon [cart]), and roots him there. Reason; Brother Jentry wont heal Lucan if he is in an aggro situation such as that. Dot keeps Jentry mad at druid, Bro will nuke Druid constantly from root so stay in range suck it up and eat the damage. Its not that bad. Keep Jentry rooted away from other guards, there shouldnt be but if and adds train then to EC. Once Lucan is dead zone druid NOT where Palis are incase any training occurrs and go back, the palis may need help or heals to finishing undead Lucan. Pali's traded aggro and both used LoH's And were willing to die if needed ( it was not needed). Once undead Lucan is done. Loot skellie, zone to N. FP to med. I believe if we were any lower level and we would not have been successful without aditional help. But, we waited until level 51 to try this part because we worked on Exp. and leveling until we were high enough level to easily shoot through Ghoulsbane, and soulfire parts. Plus, since we were gonna be level 45-52 anyway until we got the books from Naggy and Vox we were in no rush. Remember Druid shouldnt hit Lucan or he gets the KoS faction hit (unless he has it or wants it that is). I would like to add if you have help use it, also many methods work. We were just messing around late one night and then it worked we did it again the next night. BTW killing lucan 2 times made me ally to marr and truth.

his spawn time is once every 12 hours.
anyway .... im a lvl 29 pally got some friends and we killed him last night, we had about 10 people .. we did it like this:
the monk pulled him to the EC zone line, then all the kos people zoned to EC and me, along with the other non kos people, waited and hailed him until the guards went back to the gate. once they were there, the rest of the group zoned in and attakked. we had a chanter who kept Brother Jentry mezmerized so he couldnt heal Lucan. As im only lvl 29 i wasnt able to hit him that often but i was ready with LoH .. but we didnt need it .. we had enuff ppl he went down relatively quickly. the first time you kill him he wont leave a corpse ... he'll spawn into an undead form that's weaker than he is, and THAT corpse has the Testimony of Truth, which is given to Valeron Durshire in the Hall of Truth for the Brilliant Sword of Faith. If you dont want the faction hit, zone to EC before Lucan goes down.
Yes, the faction hit sucks, but we are paladins for god's sake! we are at war with the FP militia!

anyone know the spawn time on this guy?

I was told that when you attack him all guards come in and attack you and you have to either run for the zone or kill thme all. Is any of this true? can you just kill him and brother jentry?

Anyone know the respawn time on this pitiful excuse for a human being? (Human being, aka, group of pixels in a MMORPG forming the representation of a character) ^-^

ok now...my guild was gonna help me get a soul fire at 14...I kinda think this is a rip off to get a soul fire...I could get this later or should i get it now?

Does Lucan summon once attacked?

Does anyone know how long it takes for Bro Jentry to spawn after he has been killed? My thinking is this: could you kill him before going after Lucan and thus not have to worry about him jumping in and healing.
