Wacked him twice.
# Mar 15 2002 at 8:08 PM Rating: Default
Joined up with a guild that was raiding the Reavers. Main assist was 52 SK, also had 50+ ranger, 44 monk (me), and high 40's rogue for melee. Casters included 44 shaman, epic cleric, and chanter. (Wasn't my guild, don't know all the numbers, sorry).

Anyway, Ghiosk popped after the 3rd reaver both times. Has lots of hitpoints, but we didn't lose any members in either fight.

Curious note: During first fight, we knocked him into the water. He would attack the main assist when she was in range, but would stop attacking completely if she left melee range. My 44 monk ended up doing the last 300+ points of damage to him alone, and never pulled aggro. Anyone else have this happen?

Grishok, Hard?? I think not

I was in CoM tonight with my Guild just hunting for some XP. As I was pulling the back corner, I noticed that Lord Grishok happened top be stationary, so I decided to leave him alone, since he con'ed Yellow to me. My group say's to pull him, we can take him. Group consisted of a 40 Druid, 40 Ranger, 44 Paladin, 45 Paladin, 51 Bard, and 51 Monk(myself). I tell them if I'm gonna pull this guy, I'm logging in my Cleric too(Second account). Log in Cleric, rebuff, and pull him. Catch a Phantom as an add, so Bard Charm's Phantom, and we use Pet to help kill. Druid is keeping the Bard alive when Charm break's, and I use Cleric to keep Monk alive. As a group, we managed to kill Grishok in a total of 8 minutes. With Bard going LD right near end of fight, Monk went LD at same time. Remaining 4 members killed Grishok as I camped out Cleric for Rezzes as the Phantom was now aggro also. Cleric was OOM by the time Monk went LD, so total wipe by Phantom and NOT Grishok. Drop was 3 Book's and Shadowed Mace. Decent fight and good job for a group that was that low lvl. Just my 2 cp worth

can anyone confirm that this guy drops the robe of decay ?
RE: robe of decay

I am not sure of the name of the robe however he does drop a necro robe that is +12int plus some other stats. So, that is probably the same robe you mention.
Location?

Where does Lord Ghiosk spawn?
RE: Location?
# Jan 17 2002 at 7:23 PM Rating: Decent
The Lord spawns where ever you kill the Black Reavers at. He is apart of the chain spawn with the Black Reavers. Also, from what I can tell, he is 100% resist to all magic, fire, and cold based spells. Bring lots of melee types and clerics.
#REDACTED, Posted: Oct 23 2001 at 7:47 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) ok to the moron that posted Vindication is better than the Throneblade. you are a complete moron....the proc on the Vindication takes all yer buffs off...you have to put junk buffs on just to keep it from dispelling your good buffs.....using this thing makes you fell like yer on a Naggy raid 24 hours a day. Vindication is a piece of TRASH unless you dont like keeping yer buffs!

I too am tired of sitting through stupid messages, and I am sorry, but that includes flames (even if the first one). If you really choose not to see the extra stuff, increase your filter beyond default. That way you only see messages that someone found usefull enough to rate highly. I choose not to do this because even the stupid posts often say SOMETHING that may save me in a fight.

And if you're going to flame, at least have the courage to do it NOT anon!

And really, the Ogre/Troll alternative spellings have GOT to go.

Bah
# Apr 25 2001 at 12:00 AM Rating: Decent
Twice in a row we had to go though 10 or so reavers before this guy spawned. I had never seen more than 3 before that.

He died none the less. So far his loots were (3 kills)

3 sets of shammy epic books
2 Thornblades
1 MoSS

Not too shabby...
#Anonymous, Posted: Dec 26 2000 at 4:16 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) If you traded this and 3kpp for a skyfire, lol. Throneblades are worth around 20kp and skyfires are worth 7-8k

Ghiosk hunt

You guys should realize that different black reavers spawn different lords.

Ghiosk only spawns when reaver in center of castle dies, neh'ashiir only spawns when reaver in sky dies, and rak'ashiir only spawns when you kill the 5 reavers in the attic of the castle.

Enuf of this random nonsense i've been on 5 reaver hunts and its always the same thing, kill reavers for lord to spawn, then kill reaver in sky for neh to spawn, then back and forth another time after 2 hours from when first reaver died.

Guilds get tons of the mace of shad soul because they often take so long getting through the castle before all the respawn that the reaver pops on them. Either that or they die a lot and need resses because they dont kill stuff fast enough.

You have to murder the hell out of everything near the castle and in the sky if you want to move fast enough to kill reavers people. The only times I see people really successful is when they either have 15+ tanks or 4-5 ae casters and extra enchanters to chain stun.

If you think you can get to neh'ashiir with a mostly caster group you might be right but I can promise you that if most of them are not close to lvl 60 a lot of you will die. Casters just cant dish out the non-downtime damage like tanks can. Do a bunch of ae, then mez and let tanks pick them off one by one when the ae people go oom. If you can't kill about 20 lvl 45 mobs in about 20 minutes you are doomed to fail on a reaver hunt.

the hard part of a reaver hunt is the mobs around the reavers, not neccessarily the reavers. Although reavers are indeed very tough, they are still not as tough as like 4-5 adds. You need to probably charm adds and send them against reaver, let them get their butt kicked instead of wasting mana killing them. This of course only works when reaver has very short hate list so get a few enchanters to charm the mobs that come with reaver then send them immediately so they can die fast before you get to work on the reavers. If you are sitting very close to the lvl 45ish spawns while killing a reaver, count on at least 5 adds before you kill a lord or neh.

Throneblade is about a 1 in 6 drop and in my opinion is not as good as MoSS unless for a different type of tank. It's a good blade but it isn't any lamentation. Go for MoSS, neh shield (bout 50% drop) and quest stuff or you will be disappointed

Aye, had a reaver hunt yesterday night in City of Mist. I agree with all of Mandicus points. We didn't have enough time to go on a full rampage, but we manage to get Ghiosk 2 times and were getting to Rak'ashiir but we had to call it a night. We were a lot (around 30, ranging from 39 to 56 with about 15 from 40 to 50 and 15 higher than 50) and we had no real trouble killing the reavers (2 deaths overall, once we were prepared). Ghiosk dropped the 3 books 2 times and one mace. Both times Ghiosk popped after the first reaver died.

The castle area is not as bad as Mandicus makes it sound and we had no trouble dealing with the spawns. The only time we were stressed was when we had 2 reavers on us, but they repopped as phantoms.

Grats to Knights of Eternity and Crusaders of the Realm making it a fun evening.

He also drops 3 books for a shaman quest, not sure which one, but I was there when he was killed and they were referred to as the 3 books of ghiosk.

AE procs suck
# Jul 31 2000 at 7:52 PM Rating: Default
yeah i agree, AE procs are the worst thing to have on a weapon i think. It feks up the enchanter in the group hardcore. Warriors, if you are going to group with an ench, take off your stoopid ae proc weapons =P

An AoE effect has saved my life on MORE than one occasion with Fleshripper. Don't like it? DON'T USE IT! I, for one, will be quite happy with it and a pair of Crystallized Swords until I can get to Skyshrine...

These last 2 postings must be from people who have never set up a group or raid party with the intent of taking advantage of AoE spells, songs, and weapons. Our guild camped the hand room in Karnors, and also pulled Jail, Warlord, and then had to start our own trains back to us from the battlements and basements as we kept running out of mobs. Some of the Casters died a lot, chain nuking is always a great taunt, but even when the person who died 4 times, (most for the few hours we where there), was ressed for the last time, he was still 1.5 bbls ahead. For a Ranger who died twice in lvl 57, and still came out 1 full bbl ahead in 6 hours, I'm sold on AoE being a viable tactic, if you are prepared for it...

Stats on Throneblade
# Jul 22 2000 at 6:04 PM Rating: Decent
33 damage 51 delay +6 strength and intelligence and a proc of ykesha. this weapon is not very good for the mob that drops it. a random rare spawn that is very hard and this is his rare drop, with a one handed 19/29 +10 int as a common? the throneblade should be like 33/45 or something like that. oh well, just thought i would say something, because someone gave me this weapon, and i traded it and 3kpp for a sword of skyfire, which i like much more.
