3 clerics on reactive is win. Seriously. This is a mini raid mob. His damage to group is insane. . I tried 2 merc clerics twice and they couldn't keep up with his AOE/DD in a small space. I have no idea how a two boxer would kill this. Yeah, I do. Get some friends. Heh.

Second time I killed him, he spawned in the big room and I cleared a side room, after recovering from the deaths.... and then drug him into the side room, and his AOE hit everyone, and, man, geezus it's so much easier to smoke him with casters out of the AOE. I was watching life bars drop to 20 - 30 percent on someone, every tick. Add to it that the spaces you can kill him are so confining/must continuously be recleared, it's a PITA camp. I't's definitely not a "Whack the PH and go afk for 20 minutes, come back kind of camp." That's for sure. BTW, his mosquito bite spell turns you into a mosquito. Hilarious.

Some tips. He's off in one of two sides rooms from a larger room. Larger room gets a few wandering adds. I drop a campfire inside the big room once I clear it. First time I did him with 1 wiz merc, and 2 cleric mercs. His AOE/DD wiped wiz merc first, then chanter.. then necro .. and then it was one warrior.. 2 clerics ...and he was at like .. 82 percent. Wipe. That combo is MEAN. You may not take full damage from either of them, but put them together, and damn. The knockback is a nice touch too. Tip... put tank against the wall, heh. Try not to have your back towards the tunnel to the small room, so he doesn't fling you out into the big froom or into the tunnel.

So...anyways...I cleared the big room, for one thing he can knock you back in there.. if there are mobs up, you gonna have issues. Second thing.... tank him in his little room, and keep the casters back out of the AOE if you can.. and line of site dps him.. I dropped wiz merc and popped a 3rd cleric. And he died. Dropped stole and scum-covered crystal.

PH is a putrid swinetor @ +3205, -102, -319 and also at +3302, +38 -319, NW part of caverns under the temple.

edit

PH is also a putrid swinetor that roams into the big room and the little side room, where he spawns. I don't suggest going afk for very long if you are in any 3 of those rooms..... where he spawns.

I did and learned this the hard way... I feigned necro out for an AFk to wait for phr's or namer to pop....and left war and chanter with invis on in big room....and then I heard the screams. Thank god the feign worked after the AOE hit, heh. Cjerst does the same thing. You're chilling in your room..... All the little mobs are dead, and BOOM! there he is .. in your face!
