Killing Dorn
# Jan 10 2002 at 5:00 PM Rating: Default
Today i fell off the boat to Firiona Vie in Timorous Deep. I swam from there to the island with shuttles to Oasis of Marr and took my swimming skill from 7 to 49. As I ran back to North Ro on my way to catch the boat again I saw the derv camp and thought I'd have a go at Dorn again. I'm now an un-twinked 22lvl Paladin. He'd killed me at lvl 20 previously. He conn'd light blue to me so i shot him with an arrow. I have all my skills maxed and had Holy Armour, Centre, Reckless strength and yaulp cast on me. My equipment is nothing special. He started hitting me hard but then i got in a few good hits. Anyway i was on one bubble of health and just about to LOH when he started running...ha! Then it was easy pickings and I grinned as he was my first named kill and I'd had my revenge. Now come on Kizdean Gix...hehe. Only got a beaded necklace though. So, in a previous post someone said that the spectres are easier...is this so? I'd like to try but not wanting to die out of curiosity.

Spectres easier?

They were yellow to a 36 Monk and 36 Druid?

I will tell you, as a pally you probably will have an easier time with Gix. However, many a caster has been fooled by what he cons and have almost been taken out. Since we don't melee well (understatement of the year) we are completely dependent on our spells and Gix has a strong magic resistance. He almost took me out at 30 (he was green) because I was only half mana when we started.

The Dragoon in WC isn't even as bad. (He conned dk blue when I was 36) His magic resistance isn't as strong as Gix, and I've heard the same complaint from other Druids.

I have to question the conning system sometimes.

As a LVL 30 NECRO I have a hard time with this guy. I find the specs in Oasis to be easier. I had my pet (dark blue) with 2 Finely Crafter Shan Tok in his hands, plus I am a bit of a twink (Blackened Crystalline, 2 Batskulls, Spirit Tome, Tome of the Eternal, Sarnak Cerimonial Dagger, plus more) And He resisted Engulfing Darkness, Dooming Darkness, Never even partially resisted a Shock of Poison, partial resists on Spihon Soul (or whatever the 29 lifetap is called) and Disease Cloud. Pet survived with 50 % HP's, Me at 20 % HP's (a good portion used from Allure of Death and Shadow Compact). Point is, NO LVL 14 to 19 CAN SOLO THIS GUY. DON'T CARE HOW TWINKED YOU ARE. DON'T CARE IF YOU HAD A LVL 60 CLERICS BUFFS ON YOU. Simple truth:

Your offensive skills are not nearly as high as his defensive skills.

Your defensive is not as high as his attack.

You don't have the HP's he does.

He is a rogue, they have a much higher damage output at this lvl than many Warriors, SK's.

His Magic Resist is stronger than you would think. If he is resisting lvl 29 spells, your lvl 12 spells are not going to do better.

At some point that lvl 60 Cleric will run oom from healing you doomed carcass and will need to med. You will soon see LOADING, PLEASE WAIT.....

Please, don't say you have soloed him at 14 or so. It didn't happen unless someone had him down to 20% hp and died and you got lucky to finsih him off quick. Wait, that wouldn't happen either cause once someone either FD or dies, the HP on the mob gets reset. Hmmm..... Looking hard for anyone in the teens to solo him, isn't it?

For those of you capable of killing him, here's the easiest way I found. Send in your pet (necros) and cast on his punk **** till he croaks. Shock of Poison and Lifetap and Disease cloud once, Heart Flutter if possible, but if he resists the first time, don't bother. It's that easy. Just have sow on cause he is fast.

At level 38 I still have a very tough time rooting and snaring Dorn (maybe 1 in 3 sticks) and nukes hit for an average of 50%. Seems to have in the ballpark of 500-600hp if I recall.

At level 14 me and a group of six mostly 15 and 16 took him down...We did lose two members..Later that day he spawned again and this time everyone ran and I stood ground..And I died ...FF to 20 I am hitting for nearly 60 points of damage with my 2 hander I have 676hp and 437ac..Time To kick some dorn ***...I find him and attack...I got his life to maybe an eight left when he killed me...He conned looks risky worth a try, to me..I assume he was 19...He is an undercon because everything else from the oasis to LOIO I have killed without anymore than a bubble and a half of life lost when conned hard and easier dark blue...

hello everyone i would like to ad my story or 2 cents i have a 15lvl druid and i coned dorn and he was dark blue i tried to use snare and root but he resisted i was hitting him with ignite and that was working some what i have 316ac and 399hp i was full mana and full hp when i started the fight with him when i use ignite it hits with 37 damage i had sow could have ran butt i stayed just to see how much damage i could inflic on dorn after he killed me he still had 60% of his health maybe if i tried kiteing him if snare and root would ever work i could probably take him down oh one more thing dorn when he hit me and it was often he was hitting no lower then 24 and no higher than 32 hits of damage if anyone can give me advice on how to kill dorn in a much better way or maybe i used the wrong spell i have stinging swarm maybe i should have used that i dont know any ideas would be welcome as for everyone who wrote there story in on dorn i think that it depends on the class and race and what that person has as far as buffs or spells if u r a caster and if u had others helping which makes a differance and what type of armor were u wearing and what was your hp and ac depend alot on if u going to beat dorn down or if dorn going to beat u down so i think some of the storys could be true and the others full of SH** any ways thats my story and my experiance with fighting dorn bottom line i got my a** handed to me and that sucks and **** me off i cant wait to get stronger cause eventually i will get my revenge on dorn

I killed Dorn pretty easy, being lvl 27, which is 8 lvls difference depending on if he was his highest lvl. I tore him up pretty well. In fact, i had him running in 10 seconds. However, he did bring my life down about a bar or so which no lvl 19 has done to me before, except for Retlon Brenclog (he is one mean bad-a**). I didnt get any loot except for 2 silver and about 5 copper. Well, at least i had fun. :)

# Dec 16 2001 at 11:33 AM Rating: Default
I dont think he is a undercon as everone is saying. My opinion is that he has a very high agility and a high magic resistence. Mainly I beleve this is becouse that I have a lvl 26 paly and i took him on. I beat him of course but barly becouse he defended alot of my attacks but when i did hit him i hit him for like 40 - 48 pts of damage. As far as magic goes i also have a 23 druid and he resisted my dizzing wind spell, but as far as my careless lightning spell and my snare and stinging swarm spells they worked. so none the less my lvl 23 druid did better than my lvl 26 paly. he may have a high agility but hes magic resistance is not as high as his agility. This is why i beleve that he is not nessesarly a undercon. But i could Also could be wrong.
I soloed him with a carrot and pajamas for armor.

Bottom line. All the Indego Brotherhood are undercon. Just like his fellow dark brother'n (Kizdean Gix) They are undercon. They usually fight bear fisted, fast as hell. They stun nearly every hit, and I know that kizdean has a Harmtouch. They are nasty undercons. Even at a level 19 (if thats the case) they hit very hard, and might even con ok to you... I think anyone sayign they soloed him at that low is either lying or needs to give details. Notice you never see details.

Maybe you had sow and kited him for a freaking hour? Or you had a level 60 buff you? Or maybe you were being power leveled? But saying you soloed him is HIGHLY unlikely.

I dont remember what kizdeans 'official' con is but he was a pain in my *** at 24. They resist a lot of magic. Especially ones you pray to hit like root and stun.

None of the ingego botherhood are pleasent. Not to mention Mr Dragoon Zytell... if you solo Dorn, go tell some of his brothers ill res' you in 10 or so levels.

I don't know where you are getting your information, but I went at lvl 13 to solo Dorn and didn't get my butt kicked at all. (course I was lucky to have a SoW that let my little rogue run like a coward.. but I did NOT et my butt kicked.)

# Dec 02 2001 at 4:48 PM Rating: Default
Hi I just want to say that this guy is completely right. 14-20 can't take this guy down worth crap unless they are PLed. Only then can they kick his butt like everyone is talking about how they did at lvl 14-20.
ok here is my question
# Nov 25 2001 at 11:05 PM Rating: Default
you all keep talking bout killing him at 15 -what ever well this 27 druid now tried at 19 and had EVERY snare spell resisted and well the swarm ended up using all my manna anyways after i gave up trying snare or root. my question is am i doing something wrong noone seems too ssay anything bout resists here. also i will say i have NO prob killing him now with wolf and crud and all. one more thing i was for fun pulling him at 14 right after i got sow and he couldnt keep up so i dunno what that guy is talking about with the low lvl sow bit. and one more thing just a point. about this undercon thing well i KNOW some of you if not all of you have played with twinks before and built up stats on one side of the board well this is the games version of that i mean if you could kill everything you attacked then there would be no challenge, and none of us would still be playing. its not an undercon its buffs weve all died by him or someone like him so get over it

You are lucky you got that snare to stick. I'm a 45 Ranger and mine only sticks on him about 40 percent of the time or so. I have talked to 50 and 60's who have told me of similar resists w/ Dorn.

Not to say that he does not go down like 30 year old scotch, just that its hard to snare him

Well, I am currently a lvl 24 paladin on the Cazic-Thule server and i tried taking dorn down at 24 last time i was at NRo. Bad idea. He conned light blue to me, and yet he would hit me for 30-40 damage, NON-STOP. That was how he hit me when he conned yellow to me, too. No change in damage. So, i did the senseable thing and ran (this guy is slow when your not overweight, outrun him easily). Yes, i could have used my Lay Hands and died like a man, but i didnt want to waste it on an undercon. So, all you lvl 24 and belows, BEWARE THE DORN, unless you are confident in your skills in taking him down for good.

I'm a 21 warrior and he brought me down fast, I only got half his health down, AND I have the new warrior sword, but he still hit me in the low thirties every shot, and he has double-attack.

This dork killed my lvl 15 paladin everytime i got close. Wasnt even a contest. Only time i killed him was with another paladin, a shaman, and a cleric. I dont care what anybody says about him underconning, even with my twinked paladin, he still kicked the crap out of everybody (but we won). i killed him 4 times that night and he didnt drop anything but some silver.

I hunt this guy every chance I get. I'm a level 24 Enchanter and have killed him only once before (at level 21 mind you!). I am going to smack him around some when I pass through - so if anyone wishes to watch this guy hit like a girlie (debuffed) and get smacked around by some charmed beetles pay attension to the shouts!
My tactic? Mezz, tashani, Freckless might, Disempower, root, choke <medd> DD, root <medd> Charm <medd> DD = Dead. (mind you - my DD's hit for 150 hp damage. This guy is a serious UNDERCON. My warrior alt loves to just go solo Crush in CB because he can smack him around - no experience but just for revenge!

My lvl 13 ranger has been jumped and killed by this **** about 10 times, he is one of the most anoying things I've ever encountered, he hits me for about 40 damage, I have 350Ac, he also is able to outrun you if you have a low-level sow, he did it to me, I say avoid him, he cons low lvl, but fights like a lvl 20something, he is one nasty DE. PS:my lvl 30 ranger friend smears him every chance he gets. calls him Dorn B'dyin.

This guy is really weak, i dont understand why you all think he is so hard. I started killing him at 16. As a magician all i did was /pet guard here near docks, then i ran over and pulled dorn, ran back and let pet beat on him. 4 nukes and it was over with and pet was about 50 percent.
Bard Kiting
# Sep 20 2001 at 8:06 AM Rating: Decent
Hello fellow friends of norrath, my name is Dinian, a bard of the 24 song and i am here to shed some information on this shady character of a dark elf. For one, any bard around 24 can kite him effectively using bellow and chain (although he does resist chain quite a bit) just make sure you have sow before you start.
He drops a dragoon dagger about 10% of the time (figured out on my own experiences) I myself just kill him and give the dirk to anyone who can use it (since it is a lore item and I already have one in my range slot, plus, it will make some newbies day). Sometimes i get exp, sometimes i dont. He is a major undercon (cons green to me, hits like a high blue) so dont try to take him unless your above 22.
Anyways, hes fun to kill, amd once you get a hang of it can be rather profitable (selling the dirks fer about 40pp a pop). He has one negative faction hit (indigo brotherhood) and two positive, cant remember what they are.
So go kill him, and make me proud!
Can i take him?
