as if you didnt already know this Ape's one bad@$$ dude... unless you have a high level group of course with about 6, 55+ members. our friend here conned even to me at level 54. at level 55 and just for the hell of it, i thought I would pull him to the guards in FoB at the risk of being summoned. i was perfectly willing to die, just to see what would happen. so, first i SOWed and levitated myself, so i could run back across the water. WELL !!!! it turnes out ole Tangy can swim faster then my level 55 SoW and caught up with me before I even hit the other shore.(and i had quite a head-start on him) i died about 5 or 10 hits later, on the beach, before i could even get to my pet to taunt him off me....

When i first saw the tangrin was with my level 5 Iksar monk, I though i would go to the beach and then i saw the Island so i swimed out there and i walk on the island he is on without seening anything, but out of no where he spawned (Like he was hiding in the Tree :) I ran from that Island never to come back, He patrols the whole Island and will come into the water. He is also a Orange color, not Black )

That would never work with a bow. Ever heard of regen?

WE DECIDED TO TAKE A LITTLE SWIM TO THE ISLAND. (NOT THE TANGRINS). I HAVE A BAD GRAPHICA CARD SO WE DECIDED TO GET A CLOSER LOOK. I RAN UP TO THE HOLE IN THE WALL. DEAD IN 2 HITS. THE TANGRIN THEN AGGROED ON THE SK. DEAD IN 2 HITS. I DONT KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO THE WARRRIOR, BUT WE HAD A HARD TIME GETTING OUR STUFF BACK.

We were thus:
Melee group: 53 warrior 53 paladin 51 rogue 47 monk
Healer group: 52 cleric 52 cleric 45 cleric 53 shaman 40 bard
The bard played mana music for the healer group, all casters but one 52 cleric also had C2 on (we were getting the sand for my 54 enchanter, I was playing my alt cleric for the tangrin).
We only had one death, the rogue, fairly early, since she was out of HP update range and us healers (who were staying out of monkey stun range and within bard mana range) didn't know she was so beat. The three clerics used rolling CHs on the 53 warrior, all of us had no CHs left when the monkey dropped to 10% and made a walk for it.
We didn't waste any mana trying to cast DD or DoTs, and our heals were relatively efficient.
We pulled the ape to the small island, the melees all had GRM and used their disciplines. The warrior reported being stunned twice during the battle, which took on the order of 10 minutes.
The shaman did employ a pet. All melees and the pet had AQ.
He is a nasty monkey. I have a hard time believing it could be soloed by anyone, although I bet a single high level group could take him out. We did it with six 51-53 and three 40-47. We are going to use a similar group on Vessel Drozlin, if he's ever up.

Went there with guild, mostly above 50. 4 groups. First time he wiped us all out.
He is almost totally magic resistant, so save mana for heals. We went right back
and all the melees fully buffed we killed him surprisingly easy. He has a stun that
lasts a lifetime. Hope this helps.

I don't believe the Iksar Guards can summon...perhaps you can pull the Guards to the monkey, eh? Just a though...

So that gave me a bright idea... Kinda dumbass if you don't ask me! Since I am an ok fletcher, I can make a bonch of arrows, and a nice bow. Swim to the 1 island, shoot him, move, shoot him again, you get the idea. Could this work? It is possible providing I never miss, and I can keep away. Would it work? Highly unlikely. But wouldn't it be funny to watch?

lol. Not trying to insult you but it would be funny shooting ur puny arrows at him, then a few secs later hes ripped ur arms out of their sockets and bitten off ur head. Did u know he its people

No, won't work, once you hit him and do damage, he will summon you, and then rip you apart.

I was grouped with a few friends, and we were getting bored with killing charbones and Maurauders. So I said 'let's go to the beach'. Then one of my guys saw an island and swam to it. So the rest of us followed. I looked on my map and it said Tangrin, and thought that was the name of the island! My friend pointed and said 'that's Tangrin'. Ahhhh.... So for a goof, I swam to his shore while he was at the wall. Shot at him with my bow, and then swam back to the other island. I missed, but got his attention! He started at me and jumped into the water. That's when I gave the order to retreat, and we made it back to the mainland. Appearently he can't swim very well.

Uh huh, suuuure you did. This prick could swim circles around you... even if you had 200 swimming skill! Besides, if you hit him with ANYTHING he summons you to him, and proceeds to destroy you by death oh 600dmg a pop. He will rip your flesh from your bones and wear your head like a hat kinda like that dude from Con-Air!

When I was a newbie I liked to explore, Well I swam to the Islands, and went to the Big opening in the wall. He seen me and came running and could not get through, so I shouted to the Zone how funny he looked then he broke through and hit my level 3 Necro for 300+ : (, Bad Times
I've heard tell that somewhere along the way, Verant enabled a very short distance teleport a la shadow step on mobs, to prevent folks using pathing bugs to kill them. His "breaking through" could very likely have been this...
Just a thought.

Was swimming around in the lake. Came across this islad where Tangrin lives. Didn't know about him, never thought a lvl 55 NPC would be in a zone. Killed me about 3 secs. Took awhile to get corpse back too.

If you had Speed of the Cheetah, of whatever, and levitated, you may not outrun this guy (what I heard) but... what if you had your pet PO him and THEN tear across the ocean and into the FoB? Man, Tangrin plus newbies = SWANK!

hehe that wouldnt work buddy
pet does any damage to him(even 1) and he isnt full health
mobs over 50 summon....BUT they will only summon if they arent full health
i had a bunch of 51+ giants trained on me the other day, my pet bravely attacked them and somehow managed to hurt all 4 while i was running to zone, right as pet died the summoning started, about once every 1-3 sec(varried). the giants at least double hit(with 4 it was hard to tell which was actually hitting) for 141, i dont think i need to say what happened to my 1096hp =(

He drops "Sands of the Mystics", a piece needed for the fourth subquest in the enchanter epic. No wonder a lvl 50 can't solo him. That would completely take out the purpose of having him for an epic, now wouldn't it?

All this kicking his *** stuff is well and good, but how long do ya have to wait to take him down for maultiple chanters? Thats the real question! =)

I made a #$%% Character and had a lvl 50+ necro guildie cast levitate on me. We were trying to see if I could pull him into the Pit in FOB...that would have been funny, but I casted on him from hovering over water far from island and he took off after me. I had SOW on and he outran that very quickly. Hit me once for 300+ and BOOM! I was dead. It would have been a fun site to see though.

Doesn't it weird anyone out that even though this thing is classified as a level 54, no level 54 has even a 10% chance of soloing him? From what i've heard, even 58-60's can't take him w/o at least a partner or two.
I wanna play an NPC. They're just buff.

This monkey isn't that tough. Took him down with 2 groups. Highest tanks was a lvl 55 rng. Yes a lvl 55 rng tanked it. Now i ask you, how hard can he be? hehe... Had 4 tanks in all... Had 1 cleric, 2 druid and a shm as healers. And a few casters. Killed him with no death.
This is how it's done. Swim on to the smaller island and buff up, give tank a levi and have him pull to the smaller island. Then spank the monkey. The End.

he can be done with one group of 60s. 2 warrior, 1 cleric, 1 shaman, 1 ench, 1 wizard.
shaman wasn't able to slow him until Tash set. i wasn't able to snare him. ice magic hits for full. i was able to chain-cast 'ice spear of solist' for 13,200 dmg on him (11 casts) before going oom. recast time on this spell made it much easier for tanks to hold aggro. if i used draughts i would have caught aggro and died.
he is not a wimp. most 50-60 non-AE warrior class mobs drop pretty easily if you swarm them with low-50s.

Ok, lets get this straight. It took two groups to drop him. Hummmmm. Well if he is such a wimp, why don't you solo him. This one thinks you will get spanked by the monkey!!
