Great Mage Solo
# Oct 30 2004 at 8:45 AM Rating: Decent
This was a great camp for me at around 36 lvl i think it was with my mage. Make earth pet for root. Main thing is when soloing to make sure u dont pull Shiznak and his girlfriend shammy. To kill Shiznak (he's an sk), send in fully buffed/equip earth pet after Shiznak FIRST to open attack.Shiz will Harm touchyour pet, Immediately after pet hits sk, send small nuke to instakill his pet. then slow down and fire off a couple of nukes to help your pet kill shiz....med up...Target the Troll Shaman's PET. The Shaman ALWAYS gave me more trouble than the SK. Send in pet on her pet and nuke the crap out of her pet and it will go down. then send in pet to kill off the old hag troll shaman. Only danger is u dont want your pet hitting her or her pet, and the other coming after u. So put some distance between u and the shaman. Med up....Then SK will pop again and just roll from there. Once u get the hang of it, it was one of the best solo spots in memory at lower lvls for me. They drop a few plat and ring mail. Great exp at that lvl and the pops time up well with the time it takes to recover from each fight.

Lol Necro's own this guy and his shammy pal.
Simply get to max range, stick your pet half way between yourself and him.
In this order- Fear his pet, send in your pet, snare him, fear him, stack dots, and a lifetap or two.
Its that easy lol. Just dont let him get close. His HT HURTS!!!!
Took my necro from level 36-39 on him easily then moved on to bouncers in oggok.

The only snag I've ever had with Shiznak is that if he fears your pet early on, you're a sitting duck. So it does really help if you have sow. Luckliy the fear spell don't last too long.

Pets despawning

I was in a three-player group last night, killing the trolls. I don't know if this has been changed recently - this was my first trip to the trolls - but their pets DO NOT despawn after you kill the guards. On each of perhaps a dozen kills for the evening, we would kill the guard, then kill the pet. Once, our paladin blinded the pet, and he ran over to the other guard, and we had to take on the second guard, then both pets.

I have went in to Nejena and killed the magi there with my shammie. If you can kill them with one spell the pet will despawn and not attack ya. i have done this with in the last month, todays date is 6-11-02.

Hey.

Insofar as I have noticed, NPC pets never despawn, upon their master's demise.

There are a couple of peculiarities about this:
[li]If you feign death once the master NPC has died, (assuming no-one else has aggro with the pet,) it will die. If the pet is aggro'd on anyone else, it will just attack them.
[li]If you feign death and your pet has aggro, (and you allow the NPC pet to slay your pet,) something strange happens. The NPC pet does not despawn even once it has no target, but becomes KoS to many other NPCs and their pets. (If you do this with a magician pet in Najena, the other magicians will attack and slay a pet that has no master.)
[li]If the NPC pet is a long way away from it's master, when the master dies, it will despawn. (I don't know how far away this actually has to be, but when fighting this guard, I use invoke fear on the pet and usually it doesn't come back.)

Hope this helps.

AlAaraaf.

It's real easy to figure out when pets will suicide. When a pets master is dead, and no one is in it's hate list, it suicides.

This is exactly right. I have found that one shot spell death to the master will take out the pet automatically. While camping the mages in Najena I could easily take out most of them with one Cinder Bolt spell and that would kill the pet on impact to the master.

One More Thing

Killed these about 30 or 40 times, have seen no troll meat drop. Drops are runes, FS weaps, ringmail, and some decent coin, usually a few plat.
Couple Things

Really fast spawn, six minutes i guess but didnt time it. Beauty part of this spawn is that he's right beside the other guard, but they are single pulls. Really low aggro range though.

They both have pets, but the pets are wusses and you can just fear them. They'll despawn once the masters die, and wont aggro/train anything on you.

Not sure the exact loc of the tower they're in front of, but the spot I med/pull from is 1690, 1800 (both pos).

Killing these guys gives you faction with the SK and Sham guilds in Ogguk, and lowers faction with Warrior and SK guilds in Grobb.

You may have maxed out your faction. I know that after camping these guards for a long time, I stopped getting faction, but people who had not camped them as long and were with me still got faction.
