Hesmire Farflight  

I camped this guy for about 8 hours total. Spawned after the first kill of the PH at -508, 1020. Never spawned again. Then I started killing mobs a bit more north, and there he was. So keep in mind, he also spawns near -260, 850. There may be other locations as well. I suppose if I could track, i wouldnt have had this problem - but i read the post from Uuggerr and was just killing the PH in the vicinty of the -508, 1020 location.

Later, he also spawned at -375, 941. - this time he was roaming a little - didn't wait to see how far he roamed.

And he dropped the plate boot mold, so i am done with this camp!!!

Ok... Here is the deal with Farflight.

Kill all Gaurdian of the groves you see... He will spawn @ -508 , +1020 EVERYTIME.

To solve the running, summoning, blinding issue. Get get in his face and beat him down while constantly hailing. He will not run. He will still blind you but its only for a few seconds, and just make sure you are lined up to keep hitting him while blinded.

He does not hit that hard.. low is 200, average is 400, high is 850. Thats to my leather wearing beasty with only 1800ac

Hope that helps.

Peace

You got the strat down, extactly. Earth pet, all the way.

I slow him, send in earth pet, it gets slowed but still casts. I do not cast any type of DD nor does the pet do enough melee to break root. I load it with dots, it tries to run and can't. The dots get me summoned but he forgets and goes back to killing the pet. Easy easy kill. Earth pet is the way to go. Pull him down between the goblins and the grove on that small land and you are good to go.

Killed him 10 times and got 5 boot patterns. 3 plate and 2 silk. Snare is the key. I used a necro to snare. Almost impossible to kill without it cause he runs away and summons, runs-summons- and he runs fast and sometimes along way off even out of sight. also memblurs himself so keeps switching targets. So keep him snared and slowed and he dies pretty fast. The necro only snared did not dot cause of the summoning stuff. Dont want the snaring toon to die.

can anyone confirm that the "a guardian of the grove" centaurs around Hemmet are actually the PH's for this guy? have been clearing these things, along with all the wolves and bears and a few grovewalkers for 6 hours now and have yet to see hide nor hair of Hesmire Farfflight.... have not seen him spawn once yet, this camp blows =/ i'd rather risk life n limb on mammoths, especially if his mold drop rate is anything like his spawn rate /bleh

dropped silk boot pattern for us on first try (ya my mage but my main druid is what i wanted lol)

Sounds nasty. Devs confirmed he is at least the second mob that will drop SSpine boots, doesnt sound worth it to try tho.

I found him roaming inside the grove, after I had killed a number of centaurs. He cons indiff. He seems to move at > SoW speed, and I don't think that annul magic changed his run speed. When agroed, he runs to a distance, snares you with Longsight Leg Shot, blinds you with Longsight Blinding Shot, then runs randomly around the grove, either shooting you with Longsight Arrowflight or summoning you as he goes. You can end up with the whole Grove aggroed on you in this fashion.
