In Beholder's Maze, the Gorge of King Xorbb: King Xorbb does indeed exist, albeit rarely and only briefly. He is rumoured to be found at the Altar where his lords Sviir and Syrkl can be found --though many believe this rumor to be false in that sightings of him being a roaming NPC are more typically reported in the last 10 years. His Slime Crystal Staff is possibly used as part of a quest which exists in Najena (is used to make the Blued Two-handed hammer). The Orb, Sphere, and Circle fitting names for things as round as eyes...

  • This mob spawns at 685 -216 This is between where brewall marks Spinflint and Yymp.

In the Valley of King Xorbb: King Xorbb is the main encounter in the event "The Return of King Xorbb" (see this quest entry for the group version and this quest entry for the raid version).

I've played for over 10 years now and still make random trips to this zone in hopes of one day killing...hell seeing Xorbb.

This guy is right up there with favorites like Gynok Moltor, Rahotep, and other rares of this ilk. Just thought I'd give Xorbb some love since its fabled time again...still no dice here.

/agree with IksarMonkman

The loc mentioned in this thread is not exactly correct. it may be one of the spawn points, but not the only spawn point.

I killed King Xorbb today for the first time. He spawned in front of the Runneyeye zone in. I tracked him the moment he spawned.

To anyone hunting him...run around killing everything in the zone with a toon that can track. He should pop... eventually
Just Killed Him

The article from RPG expert is gone, but basically it tells you to camp at LOC +940, -65*. My pet killed him before I could even Alt-Tab back to EQ and see what I killed. I think I put about 20+ hours into it over three days.

I believe this is one of his spawn points because he did not have a pet with him (in other words, I aggroed him before he had time to summon a pet, his first OOC action).

He spawned shortly after an emergency patch (2 1/2 hours), but I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it.



*Basically, +940, -65 is a spawn point for mobs. After you kill enough, a "special**" mob will cycle in. King Xorbb is a rare on on that list of rare mobs.

Just killed him again on 5-17-9. He spawn right after two other special mobs spawned in a row (Yymp the infernal & Qlei). It happened about 2 or 3 days after a new patch.

Just Killed him today Apri 16th 6:30PM, he was way across the other side of the zone from his alter, so if you are camping him dont always stay in one Place, though most of his Place Holders pop at throne.

after 2 years of login in & checking track list, King Xorbb was up. Server was up for only 4 hours, all the named eyes were up along with 2 evil eyes. King Xorbb was pathing on the west side of zone towards the Karana zoneline.

He dropped his Slime Crystal Staff and Ring of Xorbb.

Excellent link there. I may have to find Xorbb myself.

I like his point that it's not about the loot, it's about finding an EQ legend.
Anyone seen this mob recently please???

I have spent way too much time in the gorge. I have killed all the other named (except Qlei) multiple times. I can't seem to get a King Xorbb.

I came here wanting the Slime crystal staff... now I want a screenshot of me standing over a Xorbb corpse.

While not recently in respects to your post, I did enter the gorge today to find King Xorbb up. Since reading old threads on this mob will lead you into many theories I will state what I saw:

-server and zone had only been up for 2 days.
-King Xorbb was near the top of the track list (for recent spawning), both named Evil eyes that spawn near the "thrones" were up and deeper in the track list (note, track list looked like it was untouched from server down as the evil eye pets were all clustered near the top of the list)
-King Xorbb was wandering down the middle path right behind a regular evil eye spawn.

Everytime I have found him in the last 6 months or so, I have found him on the first right turn headed to the throne, wandering towards the exit.

I found him wandering the same way today. Killed him, dropped the Ring but no staff (grrrrr).
Fabled King Xorbb

I head to the maze sometimes when I'm bored. I see King Xorbb every now and again when I go there. Saw him there yesterday and woot! It was the fabled King Xorbb! Will be sending picture of the loots to allakhazam soon. Didn't see it listed with the rest of the fabled.

I've personally seen him one time on May 25, 2003.

Me (lvl 46 at the time), was camping Evil Eyes for money, when i hit track and saw an evil eye on track not by tha altar. So i huntedh im down, he was in the northwest part of the zone, killed him easily. Then hit track again, another evil eye was up, away from altar, tracked him down near to the northernmost passage at an intersection. Killed him with ease too. I'm on my way back to the altar when i run right into an evil eye. I target him and notice it says King Xorbb. So i kill him, hes not too much harder than the other evil eyes, did try to charm me several times, however. He went down without me losing much hp. Dropped the slime crystal staff, a flame agate, and a few pp.

I can confirm he pops back to that date, but i have not seen him since. I hope this helps some..

Alright, I've spent DAYS in this place hunting for this guy, to no avail. I walk in with my 53 wiz and AE the whole place hoping to see him pop, but he never does. Is there somewhere specific I should be looking? A certain mob that needs to be killed, or one that needs to remain spawned for him to pop? All the posts here hint that he could pop around EK zone, RE zone, or the alter.....
Any help?
I'll just keep cooking the gorge till he pops regardless, but if you got another clue then fill me in.

With my level 30 ranger? I have been slaughtering everything else in the zone and all except one NPC are green to me. I have been collecting all the nice gemstones Sviir and Syrkl drop when they die and making a killing and they aren't much trouble at all, even when they manage to fear or mez me, they can't hurt me much, so id Xorbb a lot stronger than they are, or is he just as easy to kill?

When you kill the goblins in ButcherBlock and I would imagine the ones in Runnyeye, you get faction with King Xorbb. Can you get your faction high enough this way that you can walk through the gorge without fear of being ambushed by an eye?

After killing hundreds of Pickclaw goblins in Runnyeye my faction with King Xorbb "can not possibly get better". As a result the muddites in the Gorge of King Xorbb are now allied to me. The minotaurs and evil eyes, however, are still ready to attack. So... the answer to your question is no, you will still have enemies in the gorge.

This guy must be closer to 35 - 38. While running through the maze I always check the throne and see if he pop. This was the first time I ever saw him. I thought he was a cow but turns out he was a giant eye. Con Dark Blue to my 39 warrior un-twink and with half HP I didn't want to bother him so I ran back to grab some help and a bind in RiverVale since I was bound in GD and just ported to EK and all my other cha were not anywhere close. Bummer.. that suck. So after getting a bind and rushing back with a lvl 19th druid we found the throne empty!!! Ahhh... someone must have killed everything while I was gone. Gonna camp him with a higher cha and see what happen.



Don't play a twink char, it's not fun He-he-

Ikky-monkey: at Level 5
Prim: club found off skel in nek

If you see a 60th warlord running around weilding (2) cracked staff it's prolly me.

Xorbb
# May 05 2002 at 4:13 PM Rating: Default
I'm tryin to do the Blued 2H Hammer quest, but I have been unsucessful in finding Xorbb and his staff. I have gotten the other 3, and I could solo all of the mobs they dropped off of. I started looking for the staves at 30, got the 3 by 31, but after like 15-20 hours off and on of looking for Xorbb, no luck. If anyone on Torvonnilous has a Slime Crystal Staff, or sees Xorbb on track, I am willing to pay 100pp for the staff (prolly not even worth 20pp). If not, I'll come back here whenver I need some pp, as I can make a killing, around 500pp in about 2 hours.

I've been in the Gorge for a long time, hehe, I've probably made 2kpp here total, selling the gems and jewelry dropped by the eyes for about 170pp each trip to town, plus any PBBs i snag. Anyways...I WANT THIS SPAWN! Just cause he's rare.
If he dropped the ring, I'd log, get my druid, and haul *** to get it before it rots(ring is nodrop). If you're on Ayonae Ro, send me a tell if you wanna buy some PBBs, ac2 wis3 int3, I always have plenty.) Oh yeah..umm...don't tell anyone about this marvelous moneymaking camp, ok?
Be safe all...peace
