We were at ruins 2 pulling mobs as usual when she showed up. 2 wars, a monk, cler, dru, and me the ench took her out easily. All of us were in our mid to high 40's. Pretty nice drop for the effort, she conned yellow at 45. I got to loot it since I was the only int caster there.

Yep, she had a pet tonite (not sure on lvl). Me and my group we're pulling from Ruin 1, when all of the sudden I notice the name of this mob, not a normal mob, so I con her and she's even to me at 47. This fight would have been VERY easy if we didn't have the 3 additional adds. I have no idea how the 3 adds came to be, but we adapted and overcame. Throughout all this our Cleric went LD, our mid 40's Bard died (and what a great job of charming teh adds and turning em against her), and another member ran =\, so Me, a mid 40's Pally and a mid 40's Necro dealt with her and 2 additional mobs. I did my best to Fear the adds away, so we could deal with the Dread Widow. Good thing, we got done with her and dealt with the other 2, after all I had 1 bub of health left. Since the Necro was the only pure caster in the group it defaulted to her. Very cool for a night of "normal" leveling.

The Harmtouch hit me for 585 dmg. A bit of a shock for a necro with only 975 hit points.

She is not to hard at 51. She popped right on my hubbys group so I had to get a port to help my the group out.. She slaughtered all but the necro in the group .. all in lower 40's range. So I joined then we fond her.. dotted her up .. darkness and fear also.. Pet whiped out hers very quicky while they beat on her... she resist all the lower 40's spells .. at 51 mine stuck easily and she went down fast. She dropped the Drachnid Thyxl. And the only Caster in the group was so happy to get her item , Very nice looks like a GBS

Am a 51 mage. Came out of the FV tunnel, took a left turn and wandered over by the first drachnid webs and saw the Dread Widow. Sent vocerate earth pet in, got adds, gated back to FV tunnel. Repeated 3 more times, adds every time dang it. Sixth try Widow was still down to half hps and killed it oom after using a mod rod and pet down to the barest sliver of hps. Neither I nor pet was ever feared, luckily..don't try using a monster summoning 2 pet though, it ignored the pet and constantly beat on me :)
Item well worth the hour or so I spent trying to get it...

Last night I was grouping at north wall with a party of 5 (we were all under 45). Our druid realized that there is a Dread Widow on track. We didn't care about it since we were fighting other mobs. After a few more fights, we told the druid to go pull the widow since we were all itch about this named mob... About ten mins later, he pulled back the widow with only 1 bub of HP left. Our Cleric healed him immediately while our pallys jumped on the widwo. We realized that the widow had only 1/3 HP left and our druid said he waited there for a least 5 mins before pulling. So we assumed the widow had wiped out a party already (or zoned). The widow hit vert hard and almost made our cleric go oom. As a 43 wizzy, I first nuked it with lightning shock but got a total resiste. Then I switched to ice shock because I had my SoTF =) The widow went down after 5 full land nukes and I got thyxl since I was the only caster in the group...

Once again, we were just lucky....

If this was on Erollisi Marr, I was the Druid to pull. Just a warning to others, she feared me twice, debuffed my wolfform (yes, I was a wolf because the dragon was dead), and set a nasty poison on me. She definitely didn't like being snared and ignored the group whacking on her to keep casting on me until I went out of range (running from the fear spell...hehe). I was able to heal myself a bit at one point and I am so glad she was low on health because I don't know if we could have taken her otherwise.

As stated before...we were very lucky.

The Dread Widow Spawned at the enterance tunnel to DL (from FV). Got a group w/ 55 shaman, 51 Paly, 44 warrior, and myself 41 warrior. It took five minutes but we took her down with little difficulty. The shaman slowed her down, while we stomped on her. No one was harm touched, but then again she took out at least one group before we got to her. She dropped her item, but unfortunately no one could use it. We got someone to come and get it, but the corpse rotted to quick. Seemed like it was an awefully fast corpse rot.

I don't know what the deal is with HT, or how it's calculated dependant upon level, but she can HT me for 701dmg. I only have 670HPs total =0(. Got my revenge though, and won roll on the Thyxl =0)

I was just in DL the other night fighting with some guys near FM zone. We were at the time killing just pulled things at the time, we were a 54 Pally, 45 pally, and a 47 mage (me). Some guy comes running by followed by a few drachs and the dread widow. I'm medding and one of the extra drachs aggroes on me, we kill her pretty easy but then the dread aggroes on my group. Tanks immediately get up there and start wacking at it along with my pet while I do that dd thing I do. the 595 damage does minimal damage on her so we know she's got a lot of hp. At one point in the battle the 54 pally gets feared and goes LD so it's just me and the 45 pally. Pet gets killed next and the pally gets to use his LOH. when she's like a 3/4 of the way dead we ask the 49 mage next to us for help and his pet starts attacking and he's blasting. We finally take her down only to discover that the thyxl on her is a crappy version with only 1ac and 1int. felt ripped off and petitioned but were told it has multiple types that it drops. At least I got to help on the dread widow.

I was hunting in a good group at the middle ruins here, midday the other day, and no one was at the ruins where she spawns. We had a 45 cleric, 47 chanter, 47 war(me), a 45 pally, and a 40 warrior, and possibly a 46 druid at that point, I can't remember. Anyway, this thing pops over at the SE ruins and wanders over to aggro on us. Well, the pally had gone LD about 30 seconds before, and as soon as she attacks, the other war goes LD. So theres just me and the chanter and healers. Chanter mezzes pet, and I am on the dread widow, but the healers are below half mana, and she's wackin' away at me pretty good. Now, I've never met her, but I've listened from other parts of the zone while she wiped out groups, so I know shes bad, but I'm not sure what to expect. So I'm not taking any chances, so I yell out that we are being attacked by Dread Widow at middle ruins, can anyone help us. Two more cleric show up in short order, along with a druid, and then the pally pops back in about halfway through the fight. Well, the healers kept me in health till she died, and she never managed to get off a Harm Touch or anything else the whole time, so I guess we were lucky. I'll tell ya one thing, this girl has a TON of hp. It took us about 3-4 minutes to kill her. She just has like a gizillion HP, although she doesn't seem to hit that hard. I think we were lucky, too, because she was blue to me at 47, so her level must go down to 46. She was an even con to our 46 druid. She drops the Thyxl thing, and our chanter loved it, it has nice stats for secondary and a cool graphic like that glowing ball that monks get. looks like a little glowing shield around the hand. Anyway, if you see her, my advice would be to yell for help and just try to tank her out. If you run, she will Harm touch your casters and fear your melees and you're dead, you couldn't make it to KC. Just keep the tanks on her, and hopefully she will be too busy to HT your casters. btw, she is REALLY rare, so don't bother trying to camp her or anything, I've heard of her popping 3 times in all of my 8 levels in DL. Good Luck.

As you said she was cleaning groups around before jumping on your group, her harm touch probably used when she jumped the other groups and she was in the down time

guess it was its spawn spot

This mob killed me (a lvl 44 mage ) at the entrance of fv zone tunnel, it did a harm touch of 511 and i die. It has a spider pet at that moment. I find a lvl 60 mage and killed her afterwards. Her pet turns to a brown skele. Although the fight is a bit long, she was killed and it dropped the item listed above.

Yeah she's about lvl 49 or so my group got trained by her and we were lucky enough to take her down. But she does cast fear like crazy which almost single handidly killed my group. She was a mean one i must admit even though are group was a 42ish we still did ok. But it was funny because some high monk had to help finish her off because we had all been feared all over DL it was hilarious!

Well of caz necro can solo it, here's my story. When Kunark was just released I was browsing at DL with my 51 nec. I camped at the webs caz I was working on my tailoring (need bulk of silks) and it gave me steady exp. The spider lady spawned after some hrs. Though I noticed that she's a named but I thought she's just another druid so I just send in the pet w 4b hp and doh she HT me, with another melee I died in seconds(That was almost 700+ HT). And then I decided to take my revenge on her. This time I was fully prepared with skin fh fm pet and she went back to the spawn sequence crying very shortly what can I say fear+darkness+pet=necro rules_when_sit&chat. But to a 51 wiz I think you'd better get 1 more companion with you.

She popped today and was yellow to my lvl 47 Magician. She had a lot of hps and a 600+ harm touch. My pet soloed and killed her pet and the rest of the group took her down in a few minutes. I was the only pure caster and got the loot :) It looks like the essence of dole in your hand. Glowing red light. We were at the SE ruins in DL

Ok, last night a couple of rangers say they have her on track but can't see her. So I wander over to where they are at and it's on the SE corner of KC. I'm figuring she is either on top of KC or the pillars right there. So I mem up gravity flux and cast it on my self to see if I can get high enough to target her. So I'm already and cast it on myself....hehehe here is where it goes bad. My damage from the spell was about 380, then she starts hiting me for 80's, thenI am gripped in agony for 581. It seems that she had spawned under the platform so when I cast my AoE spell it hit her and that's how she killed me. Totally freaked out the rangers to see me die in mid-air. The GM thought it was pretty funny and rezzed me and then gave me and the two rangers stacks of Gnome sandwichs and beer. Moral of the story: Don't always look up for the MOB you may be standing on it.

hehe our group in DL at se ruins accidently pulled this. we had 2 clerics in group and the rogue's 56 cleric sittin with us logged on other computer. other than the 2 clerics the group was me (44 ranger at the time) 41 rogue (and his 56 cleric)those r the only ppl i really remember cuz group disbanded (mostly) and me and the rogue stayed together for a bit. we might have had one other tank though. anyway the dread widow was beatin us down so the rogue kept auto attack on and went to his other computer to get the widow to agro his 56 cleric. amazingly the dread widow stayed agroed on the cleric the whole fight even though he was only hittin in late teens early 20s. and the dread widow rarely hit the cleric cuz he had huge ac. with 3 early to mid 40 tanks hitting it and gettin a nice bs every now and then from the rogue we took her down in a few mins hehe

Have seen her twice while grouped or solo'ed at the ne ruins...dropped the ball twice. The first was a great group I was in, and we handled her nicely (I got the stone). The second time, I was soloing next to a guildie group of lower 40's, and they pulled her.

Right away I knew they were in trouble, so I snared her, and started kiting her, while the group beat on her. Didn't know it, but they were telling me in guildchat to help, lol. Anyways, with a snare, a couple of nukes, and getting beat on but healed by the cleric, they finally killed the thing. The nice thing is, since no one in their group could use the ball, they shouted, and the mage that lost the roll to me a few days before was able to get the stone.

Heh, met her at level 27 with about 650 hp, I think she hit me once for 20 damage and then her harm touch finished me off. If i remenber correctly it did about 641 damage to me, so no way that formula for harm touch damage can be correct. I'm just waiting until I'm high enough level to take her down, 35 now..... just waiting and waiting until I hit 50....

Took her down twice this weekend while at a lan party. The first time we found her there was a 45 rng, 41 enc, 47 clr, 38 dru, and myself (48 sk). That fight was rather quick. The second time it was just the cleric, the enchanter and myself. We made the fight last about 20 mins so that my Enchanter friend could move his Wizard over from Guk to loot it =) just kinda funny. Each time we fought here she appeared near the tunnel to FM.

Ok myself (44necro), a 52 necro and a 51 mag just killed her. Here's how.

First we keeled all the drachnids in both camps. Earth pet and one 49 and one 44 necro pet killed all the spiders easy. We just had to watch and fool around *grin* Don't ask.

She spawned and we pulled her. She HT'd the mag for about 680 hps (yes that's right he was almost dead) and she conned blood red to me as a 44. Took alot of beating and we aggroed a few others too, 5 drachnids and a giant I belive, and both necros died (can you belive that?). So did widow and magician looted, ran to zone.

Her pet was easy, no problems there. HIGH mr though. I do think she was about 49, maybe we just had bad luck about that.

All in all, easy to do with a couple or three lvl 50ies and just make sure you don't aggro the whole camp while you kite her...

You probably conned a Drachnid Widow, not a Dread Widow.
