Here's how the sequence with triggered Faydedar goes:

If you've killed Ulump Pujluk in SoNH and looted Froglok Essence, then take that essence to Dolgin Codslayer in Timorous Deep. Dolgin Codslayer is a semi-rare spawn on a one-day respawn timer. In what most call "piece of paradise", the southernmost island in Timorous has an underwater tunnel on it's east side. When you go through that one, you swim around to the underwater tunnel on the west side of the middle island. When you go through that west tunnel, you run up on a beach and into "piece of paradise". Dolgin Codslayer will be on your RIGHT, fishing at the edge of the water. Hail him and he says something to the effect of 'You scared me! There's a nasty beast in this pond!' Hand him the Froglok Essence, then Dolgin despawns and hands the essence back to you. The triggered Faydedar will spawn in the water in front of you immediately. He has an AoE fear and debuff which also nukes for 500 dmg. Our group of five wiped him out quick and easily. We had a paladin, beastlord, magician, wizard, and a druid that got feared over and over again while the other four whacked him(that druid was me ><) - he dropped a Pod of Seawater, and nothing else.

I'm not sure how hard he hit for, but the paladin tanking him only went down to about 60%.

Woot, another piece of my epic done today! (Got all turn-ins done for ancient pattern, powder, clay, which produced my Runecrested Bowl. And then of course, our wittle fishy Faydedar.)

As tough as you may fear Faydedar is, he's not so tough at all

Does the Frost Covered Part of a Book drops off the triggered Faydedar or just the spawned one? Any info on this? Thank you.

ok so 1 day this 50 druid and 74 mage decide to go duo a dragon.....

anyway, long story short with Fay ay 5% druid drops and dragon runs...mage loses mob in water and tracker <dru> is trying to get back.

After a standard grid pattern search...found Fay in the extreme northern part of the zone swimming east. As the druid followed and the mage ran to catch up Fay just continued to slowly circle east and back down zone line. Dropped the seawater. Hope it helps =P

One point that isn't mentioned here is that every single melee attack of this mob will interrupt your casting. (I would just love it if Sony, once in a while, would introduce a mob that is "melee-proof" instead of Magic Proof all the time. It seems they are obsessed with making their raid encounters proofed against magic, making casters as useless as possible, as often as possible.) Unless you have instant cast nukes/dots, you will be wasting your time attempting to solo this thing.

Your reading comprehension skills are somewhat poor, but I expect that will come as you grow up. Judging by the maturity reflected in your post, I would guess you're about...seven years old??

I was saying that a lot of raid encounters are proofed against magic, making me, as an Enchanter, pretty much useless. I haste the melees and let them have all the fun. And I was also suggesting that it might be interesting to make a raid encounter that is non-meleeable, letting the casters have all the fun once in a while.

Sorry you're against letting all types of classes feel the occassional obsolence in raid encounters, and would rather just see the casters have to endure that.

Dropped Frost Covered Book

Faydedar was up at 0100 hrs EDT on 19 July 07. Very soloable dragon; I had AC=2413 HP=11K had to use 2 HoT potions and 2 self heals. My tracker had the Dragon up and I was located at the Spires. Dragon attacked me and caught me off guard. He aggros very easy over a large range. He dropped the Frost Covered Book and Pod of Seawater. I've killed it twice and each time it dropped the Pod of Seawater.

He de-buffed several of my spells and none of my spells would land (even though I was right under him). I used Fearless discipline, but after wore off I was feared for a few seconds.

Once he begins to flee, it will be hard to keep up with him in the water, so have a SoW potion ready to use to catch him (if you have SoW on when the fight starts, the Dragon will likely have de-buff it before it flees, as happened to me).

Good Hunting,

Ya know, i have to say. I have read so many threads on mobs that were either raid mobs or other high end mobs. Most are like lev 55 or 60 mobs. When people lev 73-80 post" This mob was eeeesy"..or "what a weak mob" what do you expect? It was created when epics came out w/ Kunark. It took a raid to kill him. I wouldnt doubt that any lev 70+ melee class could take him out. MAybe a bit tougher for a caster class..but w/ a melee w/ them..c'mon. I bet these people who post would be the type of people that would say..." my son is having a hard time w/ the 5th grade kid bothering him. So i followed my son home from school and when the 5th grader tried to fight him i took him out. He was an easy fight. BTW im a 35 year old male weighing 250 lbs. and an ex Army ranger" HEH.

Sony wrecked the game in making such high lev people able to take out such raid mobs. Too bad they dont do like they did w/ naggy and only allow people under lev 59 to do the raid. MAke people earn the drop..instead of having their" big brothers and sisters" do the work..and they reap the rewards.

Killed Faydedar on Stromm at exactly 22:44:48 MTN, Wed Jan 10, 2007. He was hanging around the southwest corner. From the OT translocator, it was a loooong run...

Had about 31,000 HPs; DPS of 40. Easily soloable by a level 65... but don't forget your enduring breath like I did the first time.

Still, the death was more than worth it, as I officially received BOTH book halves on the same day (the first was looted from Tal this morning).

W00T!

on your map, it' a little speck to the left of the hidden inn.
When you get near, you will see spires coming out of the water.
Swim down the middle and you will see a square hole in the floor that leads to the fire port room.

I've seen him up every day since Friday. He may despawn and come back, I can't say for sure, but he killed me friday. Was gone saturday morning. Back early in the afternoon, back around 10pm (Central) on sunday and he was there around 12am Monday Night/Tuesday Morning.

Until this weekend, I'd never seen him...most of the time I still don't see him...he attacks and I either manage to click fast or I die.

There is no "nay saying" to be done. He did NOT exist for a long time. I had been in TD for hour upon hour at firepots, camping the oowomp, quadding raptors, getting my monk's quest done and I saw nothing of him since I created my first character in 2001. Yet I've seen serv/gore/talen on multiple occasions without spending hardly any time in their zones. He was obviously patched back in sometime within the last year, but that is all there is to it. He was gone or set on a pathing to be instantly killed the moment he spawned until something changed fairly recently with a patch...

Always been there.
Been charmed by him when the firepots were first discovered near Kunark's release, and have seen him spawn and die, even after the triggered epic was put in.

He pops. If he isn't agrod for like an hour? The Iksar Master , starts to swim out to him. Then lays the smackdown on Fay, and heads back to his watch point.

Dropped him without having to heal my pet once, Raging Servant made its mark as well on him. Still dropped the sea dragon meat though patch message said it shouldn't and spotted him on my way to the firepots. Nothing has ever changed with this mob except for the myth that he doesn't spawn, which is false.
