Its a pity some thinks you can have the cake and eat it. Grow up icel, you dont have any headstart by not sharing. If someone wants to find out what kind of dmg it does they simply run down there in notime. Get killed and another grp rezzes you up again.

Not one piece of information on this tread actually does say how the dragon has to be killed or what it does. Unfortunately its all wrong. I am not going to say what it does cast, but its definatly not a mez. I think its best if the guilds attempting this have something of a mystery on this.

I will say this you don't want to focus on killing its friends if you get a bad pull. Also, research from other guilds on how to kill this is probably necessary or you will be sitting for a whole day trying 10 different unsucessful attempts. Study the clues and you may figure it out.

Last comment never believe people that tell you like 6 or even a dozen level 60's can takle a mob like this. Takes a lot more than that.

Come to think of it, there really shouldn't be a good reason why this dragon is so rarely killed. If you really think about it, the type of person who plays this game is pretty smart. Some of us play other strategy games, be it D&D, M:TG, or such. So it's all a matter of putting our collective minds together. After viewing many of the thousands of posts on this sight, I see countless numbers ofthem being meaningless bickering. Perhaps if we started putting idea's and in-game experiences together we could topple this b*tch.

I suppose I'll start first. I liked the earlier mentioned idead of dotting to break mez. If there was one necro in each group, they would contribute one pet, prefferably that spectre pet. AND DISEASE CLOUD !!! it lasts for 6 minutes and does 1 damage a tick, big f*ck*ng deal right. The other players in the group would have to make a button saying when the cloud wears off. But this will only work on pvp cuz it requers harming other PC's.

IF I SAID ANYTHING STUPID IN THIS POST, PLZ PLZ DON'T FLAME ME FOR IT. I UNDERSTAND THAT I HAVE VERY LIMITED EXPERIENCE DUE TO MY NEWBIE STATUS BUT I WAS JUST DISEARTEND BY THE LACK OF UNITY ON SUCH A LARGE SCALE !!!

#Anonymous, Posted: May 18 2001 at 10:14 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Then why did you say something stupid? Let's face it, you said "this"... don't deny it. And what exactly is sense sarcasm, is that like sense heading? Lol, who are you talking to? Responding correctly does help. Or you can get really really angry ("grrrr", go on, get real PO'ed! I hope you do, it's funny!) and post seething, yet insipid replies to... well, I don't really know. I guess your angry at the world or something. Way to go. Keep the stupid circle going strong! Man, this site is odd. 3/4 of the posts are gibberish and whiny complaining and the other 1/4 are either lies or the wrong info. What happened to discussing things maturely? This site should be used for information and a place where questions can be answered honestly. "Getting the holy @#%^ beat out of you..."? Such anger! This above post and the long winded, useless, idiotic blathering of the Twin Somethings (that was a "really cool" post, lol... if you guys are bored, go get a job or another hobby) are just 2 examples of why it is becoming more and more useless to post anything on any internet site. Just post what you honestly know about the subject at hand. If people don't like what you are saying about your post, then ignore it. Pretty simple. I doubt that anyone will even get this post at all, and someone will say "I a bad lie! Post can't you suck, cuz you are prolly stupid!" Just because they are so angry or naive, the gibberish will flow. This game really needs an IQ/age rating sometimes. Well, whatever, none of this crap matters anyway. Enjoy. See that, now I just posted something angry and silly too! Wow, that was really... pathetic... thank you angry, idiotic posters for making me post this... gee, what an intriguing game. I think I'll take my own advice and ignore all of these posts and try to weed out useful information. Thanks... have a real nice day!

Thanks Yonder. Made my lvl 1 necro too1337forj00 a week ago and finally got his RoS faction up to fondly. In addition to the whole laugh till it dies outcome, when I initially went up to Phara Dar, the cuddly reptile gave me a big box of Fippy Snax... Don't know how it got Fippy Snax though, and I wonder what Fippy thinks about this.

So after I got all the ph@t l3wt and gave it to all my lvl 1 alternates, I went to Qeynos and asked Fippy how come Phara Dar has Fippy Snax and I never had them before. Fippy said, 'If a great big scary dragon asks you for some tasty, yummy Fippy Snax (tm), are YOU gonna refuse? Woof.' And then I said, 'Fippy, you're not as dumb as I thought you were.' Then he proceeded to run towards the gates of the city and get slaughtered. Then I thought, 'well, maybe he IS that dumb.'

If phara has no sword+shield pet, prepare to have a hell of a fight! Here's how to get around mez and charm:

Cast Levitate and Pack Spirit- those are CANCELABLE. Do that before your buffing. Cancel those after the buffs are on everyone. Have everyone on the raid mem dispell magic if they've got it. Everyone needs to make an "I AM MEZZED" key and a "I AM CHARMED" key. This dragon can mezz your party in area effect for about 2 minutes.

You need to have all sorts of MR buffs on there and to keep the aggro on the tanks at ALL COSTS! You do not, really do not, how am I to stress this? Don't let your friggin cleric get mezzed! You'll die in a heartbeat!

Otherwise you need to start like this:

tanks get in melee, wait 10 seconds. Rogues start backstabing and a level 60 magician needs to malo. Enchanters need to drop the highest level tash they have. Start nuking(ha ha kidding right? it helps...). If a mezz goes down it needs to be dispelled quickly, I reccomend rogues take priority on this, though.

The dragon will also blind, and fear. Ever been feared in veeshan's peak? It's the worst nightmare.

-Good luck raiding

Um, yeah, please get a clue, thanks.

As of Saturday, November 11, 2000 The Afterlife Guild of Mithaniel Marr cleared VP. See www.afterlifeguild.org for pics as well as other uber happenings. They werne't even the first, I think Fires of Heaven was, but I can't find a good link.

Also on the list I know of are Legacy of Steel www.legacyofsteel.com on the Nameless, who claim 4 casualties to Phara, and Triton www.tritonguild.com on Povar.

See for yourself, all those links have screenshots on them.

Next time do some research before whining.

Tunare, yet to be killed. Go to PoG and you will find out why. Need to clear all non yard trash, she summons all to her side. Similar to treah who summons sylvans when attacked and gayl who summons all spawned entollings. Her 4 guards dispell the crap out of you. So after spending the time to clear the entire plane, you are stripped then raped by tunare and her guards. Fun fun. I bet she is worth it
Request For Comments- Possible idea
# Jan 16 2001 at 1:50 AM Rating: Decent
Not sure if this would work, please post critique of idea.

Have each tank/cleric duel one of the dot casters that is staying out of melee range preferably in thier group. Dot casters (shaman /druid /ench/ necro) keep a low level dot on him/her self and thier designated tank/cleric to make sure they stay awake. Non Dot casters eithor duel one of the dot casters, if enough are left over after the tanks/clerics have one) or just hope for the best (and have high MR).


Problem being that it will distract casters from thier jobs a bit... not sure if its fast enough wake and worth the effort. Also not sure where in buff order this should be placed, for effect on dispells.

What do you guys think?

Here is MY idea -- Will this work?
# Jan 27 2001 at 6:05 PM Rating: Default
Looked through here. Interested strategies and the sort, but I have one...


What if the tanks were drunk?

Would the swaying back and forth interrupt Mes? Or does Mes cancel drunken movements?


An idea.

Phara Strategy
# Dec 12 2000 at 8:26 PM Rating: Decent
My question... how would you go about doing Phar. From my experiance i would attempt a Vox like group. If Phar AE mez's then would he AE dispell too? I wouldnt think so. Mez a player and it stuns for 20 seconds or so. Wether that can be dispelled is another thing. Also, Phar is mentioned to be the hardest dragon. Well, i wouldnt thing so from a perspective. The key to this raid would be to get as many warriors as possible. Warriors natural magic resistance is higher than any class and thus resulting in less MR items and buffs needed to to resist Phar's most deadly spells. Also i would assume Phar would be insainly buffed with chanter buffs. An initial dispell in the second phase should do the trick. Phar's pet might also be able to be an asset to the raid. While already buffed it could be charmed in hopes to take it to its grave by the time charm wore off. Could be designated by one member to do this. You think about a pet being weak and something as a secondary but i believe Phar's pet is something to recon with and could change the speed of the raid if not taken care of off the bat. Other than that i would assume this to go the same speed as a Vox raid. Phar would have to be drained mana wise. I just cant see fighting him while hes constantly AE mezzing. So get dragon groups together, buff everyone (regular dragon buff order), then log to chat (if you need this step then maybe you shouldnt be raiding Phar. Logging to chat is a sign of lack of team work and leadership. Good raiding parties know how the buffing system works and just do it without having to be told order and what not), then begin the attack. Tank groups go in and gather the attention of phar. Right after do a dispell with all casters to make sure to get it all in one hit then begin the enchanter mana drain (fit the designated person on the pet in there somewhere). Pet groups apply dots and send in pets then get out of AE range then chain cast pets to send in for fodder. Nuke group blast till thier fingers smoke basically. Clerics use modulation rods to keep mana-a-plenty. I dont know the area of VP but if its relitivly safe for nukers to bind close out of aggro range they can do the "nuke, die, get some dropped coin, mem nuke, nuke, die ... etc." routine. Hell, this might be a bad way to go at it but if i were to lead a raid thats how id look to go at it. Anyways im looking for actual info about the raiding of Phar. Got anything to add please note it.

Do you really think a guild high enough to actually raid Veeshans Peak is going to log on here and go 'Hmm, We have never done a Vox raid before lets read how to do it from this guy' or are you trying to impress the sub lvl 10's out there.
RE: Phara Strategy
# Dec 15 2000 at 12:21 AM Rating: Default
It might be useful to cast low level long duration DoT spells on group before the battle. Mez is broken the second you take damage, so if your constantly taking damage from a DoT then you can't be mezzed. Of course you well be taking damage from the DoT but it should be neglagable to that from the Dragon.

Also about the binding. Its a good Idea, but I think VP is unbindable.

RE: Phara Strategy
# Dec 16 2000 at 11:46 PM Rating: Default
ok i just wanted to mention that enchanters can possable lower the dragons magic resistance so that it is possable for about 4 enchanters to chainstun her to keep her from mezzing or charming people, also clerics have a decent damage stun and melees have their ykesha 76damage stun if they have a ssoy or dragonhorn ykesha or anything else like that, the warriors should just beef up their dex so that their weapons proc alot more, after all of that the dragon should be stunned every half a sec with stuns that last about 3sec which will let all pet casters have their procing pets and bigtime nukes and dots going off at the dragon which should hopefully down the dragon after no more than a few minuits of intence battle. Doing this a few times for practice on other dragons may be a good idea but the enchanter spell that lowers their magic resist is a must cause the stuns spells are resisted alot and since its a 65dragon they will be resisted more than normal.... I am only assuming that a decent dragon killing group would have thought of the lower magic resist spell so this is the end of my rambeling on
RE: Phara Strategy
# Jan 10 2001 at 7:03 AM Rating: Default
Problem with this is that you can't stun a dragon. You can (sometimes) interrupt casting with a stun of some sort, but the actual seconds of being stunned don't happen. So while chain stunning is critical to keep some of the more long casting, powerful, spells from being cast, you still have to deal with the spells cast too fast to be interrupted, things like the breath weapon/dispel/fear (can't be interrupted, any of them) and the devestating physical attacks. Plus, given the magic resistance of ubermobs, and the high resist rate on stun spells, I'd be surprised if many of them actually landed even after the Tash. You're talking about things that can even resist lifetaps, which are normally almost unresistable.

Killed?

Phara Dar has not yet fallen on any server. This is half due to the fact that he is ungodly hard to kill, and half to the fact that to even get to him there are a couple 5 or six OTHER level 65ish dragons to kill first. ALL of which are tougher than Trak.

FoH was the first to kill him and clear Veeshans Peak entirely. Did it almost 2 months ago.

And to the guy who thinks everyone is fools and states that just throwing people at a dragon until it dies is the way to do it, well you a f*cking ******** You are probably a gimp parasite who thinks killing asps in EC is tough stuff. You've obviously never been on a dragon raid or an uber mob raid for that matter. I've seen 50-60 people go after Vox and get wiped COMPLETELY. I've seen 12 people do Vox in under 60 seconds. Now, tell me, strategy means nothing, MORON.

Legacy of Steel killed him (along with the rest of VP) last week or the week
before on The Nameless.

I think FoH killed him a while back as well.
