At any given time there appears to be approximately 10 of these guys up all around Ak'Anon. Not sure if it would be worth posting the LOCs of them all as they don't respond to hails and as far as I can tell only serve as flavor mobs.

Head to 1691, -230. I am a Dark Elf Necromancer, so I went in invis. When you get there, just cast something to pull the mechanic standing by the vendor, since the vendor is dubious it will not aggro you. For necros, its pretty much cast darkness, send pet, shock of poison, lifetap, lifetap, lifetap, When they start to run (about 20%) shock of poison them agian. You have to watch, don't let them run across the water to the guards, because THEY will aggro you and kill you. I'm sure other classes have their way of taking care of them. Only advice is don't let them run to guards. On a higher note they drop great loot for me, Fine Steel weapons once and a while, Iron armor, loot about 3g to 3p from them, sprockets and gizmos. I'm lvl 26, most con blue, very few con white and the rest of the time they con yellow. The loc I gave you is across from 1 mechanic static spawn, which spawns ever 6 min or so, which is a great amount of time to med/heal up! Easy kills for me, good xp, good loot. Great kill. Period.
Oh and I forgot, they also drop gems, emeralds and such, and even on very rare drops black pearls!!!

I had a look around akanon for these guys yesterday and couldnt find any singles, they all seemed to be surrounded by high level ( red to me) npcs. Could anyone give me the loc of some of these guys who do not have reds around them? would lull work on these? im sure some of them could be lvl 40ish.
Is there still mechanics around that are alone or did they change that?
BTW im a 25 pally and a high elf ( which makes it even more difficult, i keep getting stuck,lol) but loot for these guys sounds great and im seriously broke atm....
thanks ;)

I'm a level 24 druid, but as everyone knows a druids talents are usually best outside of places.
Well if I am not mistaken Ak'kanon is all inside. What could I use to solo these guys. I am not twinked at all and really don't want to be. I have 134 wisdom. But I also have a few + mana object that boost it some more. But if I cannot use my careless lightning spell, should I try to DOT him to death and melee a bit? My other spells aren't very mana
efficient. Any help from a crafty druid around my level would be helpful.

The machenic is easy for druids, careless ligthing does work. I just root, snared, flame lick and magic based dot and medd. repeat until dead or you can root nuke with careless lighting.

Pull the mechanic, cast some kind of slow spell on them, then nuke them to death, and as always, make sure you have enough mana.

These thing are soooooooo weak, my good frind killed these by buffing himself, pulling with snare, dotting, then he meleed them while nuking them until they died, very very easy.

I've been doing the single spawn by the mechanic as a Dark Elf since 24. I'm at 27 now and it's still good experience. The vendor is still dubious as he has been since I arrived. No worries there.

Could a lvl 26 erudite mage solo these?.....

Use earth pet, damage shield pet, burnout pet, pull with malice. Send in pet. Nuke a few times, maybe even throw in a pet heal. instant experience.

I am lvl 26 and i was told they were good exp but im not sure if they are just good hunting for casters or not. If it is possible for me to get into Akanon would it be hard to kill these guys? Someone please post a reply.
You'd be fine in terms of being able to hold your own in a battle with these guys, but if they run, and they do, you're pretty much dead unless you have a Silken Whip of Ensnaring or something else that roots/snares. The guides and other Clockworks will attack you. Grouping in Mistmoore is okay for you, or Highhold Keep, or Frontier Mounains, or Lake of Ill Omen, or even some Firiona Vie, and there's always Southern Karana with Aviaks and gnolls to hold you over til about ~34... Anyway, hope this helps... I just wouldn't try these guys alone as a warrior. Good luck.

Im a lvl 22 gnome necro with a int of 152.... was wonderin' if i could take these suckers down easily? Does the bug still work?
These lil guys are great in every way imaginable. Exp, loot, ez faction, ez kills, good spawns, and they're little!
I leveled from 28-33 on the mechanics. By level 31 I could easily solo the 3 spawn in the palace. Their faction is easy to regain by killing minotaurs 1 zone away(Steamfont). The Eldritch collective, however is not on the mino faction. As a wood elf ranger I didn't really need that faction anyway, though. As far as loot...
1-6pp
Ringmail Armor
Gems (Black Pearls too)
Fine Steel Weapons
Mechanic stuff
They have about 750-850hp depending on level (24-27), and max around ~42dam. When I was fighting in the palace there were some pathing bugs that could sometimes cause some problems if I wasn't paying attention. Always slow/snare in the palace. There are guards/clockworks/mechanics to help their brethren. There are a couple of single spawn spots in Ak'Anon as well. One past the first tunnel to the Mines of Malfunction, by the tinkering merchant; one other in the 'cabin' by the water-wheel, but that one's quite risky with all the clockworks around.
When you do get tired of mechanics, you can move on to some clockworks spiders, or even some of the weaker guides. The zookeeper's fun too. Anyway... Very out-of-character-ly, I love gnomes, but killing them has so many advantages!:)
btw - Made 2k from these guys in about 4 hours.
Anyway Hope this helps. Be safe, and remember to leave some time for RL=)
PS The whole time I killed them my faction at the warrior guild in Ak'Anon was amiable and I could sell all my loots there. I'm not sure if this was because I had done something earlier for them, or they have very little faction with the mechanics...

Does anyone know if a DE necro can be successful at either of the two camps of merchants?

You don't have to be small to do this it just makes it a lot easier. I'm a lvl 30 human mage and camp them all the time all you have to do is spend hours in EC trying to buy shrink potions! And its really annoying because it trivs. at like 70 and still people won't sell them to ME!

If you go deep within the building that Akanon is in, you will find several Mechanics. Each one is close to the other but dont they dont train. Its hard to explain but you can pull one by one into a room and stay in the fartherst corner from the door and they cant touch you. This bug only works for small races ex. Gnomes, halflings and dwarfs. I am lvl 22 necro w/o pet and I am getting awesome exp off these guys. And for you who say that bugs are bad, its my way of getting payback for when I ordered Kunark and never recieved it and still got billed. =P If bugs are illegal, why the hell dont they fix them.
Loot is fairly good, I have gotten ringmail already and stones the first day. They never resist spells really and are again excellent exp. I get almost 1/2 a bub at 22 for reds and 1/4 for yellows.
Come here if you are a pure caster and a small race and get lvl 24 asap! New spell animations, darkboned pet if your a necro =)
Happy Hunting

These guys are great, wish I would of killed them a lot sooner. The pathing error seems to be fixed or at least they came past the wheelbarral and attacked me. Maybe it was my pet? Anyway, I've seen 4pp and change, plus every piece of ringmail. Also runes, fs, jewlery, gems and your odd words <good words too> Happy hunting!

Yes it looks like a pathing error, he never attacks you, just paces back and forward. Don't let a GM see you kill him this way, or you'll be hung, drawn and quartered. Damn funny though sitting there blasting him without my trusty necro pet. Kill him then swim down to Sanfryd and blast him away, the xp just rolls in. I reckon a lvl 20 caster could take the red conning mechanic no probs, as long as they have enough mana.

Wait so oyur saying that a lvl 1 necro can just kill these guys and they wont fight back? wow
No.. because your spells would easily get resisted

These guys kick *** exp wise. I made the 1 a day gnome plan to freedom not to long ago. Thats where you lvl once a day till 29, thats what lvl i am almost at. These guys are definitely on it! theres one by the abby of deep musing where if you pull it and stand to the right of a wheelbarrow he wont attack you hell keep pacing. Anyways if you wanna know what my plan is just gimme a tell, im on quite a bit. Itll be famous!!!!

Where does this beast spawn at?

They drop anywhere from a few gold to a few plat.
Drop mostly gizmos and runes. Occasional FS or Ringmail
