Easy pulling

Pulled this **** in a full-pop fear on Aradune tonight (currently in Luclin). We had one group with 2 enc, 2 monk, cler, and box shaman. It was overkill for this single mob, but was definitely helpful to have a full group just to handle all the adds you get in fear.

Pulling was actually super simple. Used a daybreak run speed potion and lev potion so they couldnt be dispelled and ran to the north wall of the temple. Got aggro on everything right away and almost instantly the Wraith popped out and started chasing me also. I ran to the NW corner and FD. Wraith just stood there like an idiot while all the rest of the mobs pathed back and reset. I dont know how long she would sit there before pathing back (if ever at all) but I was FD there with her for around 20 minutes or so and she didn't move.

Once the rest of the group cleared out most of the roamers around the SW corner I popped up and just trained everything to the middle south of the zone. Looked like Wraith was a bit slower than everything else, or it was just kind of buggy because it seemed to stop chasing me a couple times randomly (it wasn't casting anything). Got to the south wall and FD, had a tagger watching from afar and once all the regular mobs pathed away he tagged her and we killed easily. NOT.. actually he got too close to a roamer and got aggro, which chain aggro'd 3 other mobs plus Wraith. No biggie though- enchanters locked down the adds and we killed the Wraith, looted, and all gated out.

I noticed most of these posts are littered with guesses and not a whole lot of useful information about spawn times.

A friend and myself decided to get the Wraith of a Shissar for our two enchanters back to back. When we zoned into Fear she was up. Killed her and then we stayed in the zone and camped her until she spawned again. We pulled shifts during the COVID-19 out of work experience (during a weekend) where one of us would sleep with a plan to call the other if she spawned. That part isn't important, but I wanted to explain how we achieved this, other than being purely insane.

Anyway, her spawn time on Mangler during Lost Dungeons of Norrath expansion was exactly 69.5 hours to the minute from the last time she was killed. She has no place holders and she spawns in the center room at the top of the temple.

The various trash in the zone was on a 5-6 hour respawn time depending on location.

I hope this helps someone in the future.

For what it's worth; I came back 68 hours after Wraith died on TLP Mangler (early morning so I expect no one would have killed her overnight in the previous 6 hours if she spawned early). Camped the spot until 70hours 45min after her death with no repop. So, it doesn't appear that the 69.5 hour respawn is a set timer. My thought is that perhaps its a 72 hour respawn with a +/- 3 hour possible variation. Will check back later to see.

66 enchanter, max aa and merc. Went into fear, almost everything was dead except the 2 phoboplasms at the top. killed them and wondered around zone for a while then camped the top of temple and turned up the sound and played diablo 3. within an hour to an hour and a half tops, i heard a flapping sound and windowed over to find the prize.... so much for the bottle neck! the rest of the temple started popping as the shissar was going down.

Anyone know what the spawn timer is now? And is there a window or exact timing?

Call of Hero Pull

This is my story:

On my second trip to the Plane of Fear the Wraith was indeed up. Before I could target her I was aggroed by four amygdalons. I ran with these to my group, which consisted of a 68 mage, 68 cleric, 61 enchanter, and myself a 70 Beastlord. The enchanter mezzed the little group and we took them out one at a time. I went back to the temple and the wraith aggroed and brought the rest of the temple with her. I ran straight north to the zone wall and took a left. I ran toward the west wall and then cut the corner (group was there) when the mage saw me run buy with my freight train she began to count to five. At the count of five she started casting Call of the Hero. By the time the spell went of I was by the fiend house. I poofed back to the group and immediately headed south again so I could see the temple occupants one by one heading back into the temple. As stated in previous posts, the wraith will stay put for quite a while. Told the group to run back down to the fiend house and finished her off with out any interruptions. This is not a short fight, but it was comfortable.

Of course for this to work you really need to have cleared a 'safety corridor' along the west wall so you don't get any surprised while you are running through or fighting the wraith.

It's a Wraith OF a Shissar, not a Shissar itself.

It was also designed before the shissar design came around for Luclin, 3 expansions later.

Finally decided to go to PoFear and see how fast I could die trying to get my Head of Shissar. Went there Sunday night with my 65 Shadow Knight, 64 Enchanter and 67 Druid and the place was cleared out execpt for the two photoplasm's at the top of the temple. I killed those and then sat and watch the wall for 4 hours with no sign of anything anywhere.
The one guy says he sat there and turned his volume up and went to sleep to be woke a couple of hour later getting hit by a "PH", killed it and went back to sleep only to be woke up a couple of hours later by Wraith of Shissar. I dont see how this could happen. I sat there in a cleaned out zone for 5+ hours and nothing at all.
So anywhere, I logged back in Monday morning ran my druid over to check for spawns. There were a lot of mobs up but not the Wraith of Shissar. Got home monday night logged in and ran the crew over most of the lower mobs were cleared, some ubers must have came and farmed the golems and taken much of the trash mobs with them. I finished clearing the wanderers, then cleared the temple and went up to the top and sat there again for about 3 hours with nothing.
Tuesday Afternoon I got home from work and logged the crew in and took them in. The southern half was pretty thin and no golems yet, either they were farmed again or hadent spawned yet (not familar with them). I cleared the wanderers and then again cleared the temple (with no Wraith). Sat there for about 2 hours before it was time to go to class. I FD'd the SK and logged out the chanter and druid. Went AFK, went to school. I got back 2.5 hours later to find everything just as I had left it and no Wraith. I checked my chat window to see if anything had happened and it was only guild chat. I went and heated up some dinner and sat down. Logged in the druid and chanter and rebuffed the SK and pet. Just started eating when low and behold Wraith of Shissar appears before my eyes. I couldnt believe it!
I promptly ran up and attacked, ran chanter up and tashed, slowed (resisted twice) and crippled (resisted once). Ran the druid up snared (landed first time). Tossed a couple of druid dots on it while me and the pets widdled her down. Fight took maybe 5 minutes, with a reslow/cripple about 50% and 2 rounds of druid dots and was actually a pretty easy fight.
I think the spawn time is somewhere between 48 and 60 hours. Unless someone did sneak in there and kill just her(not anything else in temple) when I was not there.
Hope this informative and entertaining :)

*wraith was killed on saryrn server today (2/20/06) at 1:15pm PST.
Popped at about 1:00pm PST.. patch tonight though useless to track from that time

*CT was killed about 10 hours or so before that (2:45am PST)..
*saryrn server was reset about 30 hours or so before that ...

so
saturday night - server reset
sunday - CT popped
late sunday night - CT killed
monday afternoon - Wraith popped

--------------------------------------

me (70 pal) and my enchanter duo'ed his whole epic. Server went down a couple days ago and I cleared plane of fear out except for CT whom had popped since then. He was killed by a group of lvl 70's.

just some notes:
*wraith flees at 20 life .. she is very magic resistant and hard to snare so beware
*she does have quite a bit of regen on her hp
*she was a pushover for a 70pal and 67rng, she is soloable but is more easily duoed

This was the 2nd last part in my pursuit of my epic, a long project on a casual-played account.

Flushed with success of nabbing the Ghost of Kindle in the Hole, my necro friend talked me into going into fear with him. I zoned in first. Spent a glorious short time running around while he zoned in and FD.

He dragged me to NW area of zone. While contemplating how he was going to go to the top of the temple to see if the Wraith was up... we noticed she was standing northwest of the temple among the trees. There were no others in Fear, nor any evidence of a raid/group wipe nor anyone for the 30 minutes we were in zone (travel-rez-med-buff and discuss strategy). The original epic quest posting says she can be found around the temple, pretty much all other posts say she is on top. I dunno.

I do know; we killed the wraith and I got my head. Necro was level 66, chanter level 67.

...now I head to Hate to try my luck
Wrath of Shissar

Wrath was killed on Saturday Sept. 17th around 12pm CST in Maelin Starpyre.
what i know as of right now
# Sep 11 2005 at 2:47 PM Rating: Decent
she is in fact at the top of temp encased in fire, spawns between two photoplasm's. hit me (61 sk around 1400 ac) for low 200's, also hit me with some kind of stun seemed to last upwards of 6 seconds. can be single pulled from temp tried 3 runs to see which one was most effective. run 1 zoned in fd'd at fire ring on outside of temp, cleared argo got up crossed ring steped on stairs going up and argo'd temp. run 2 zoned in ran stright up to stairs tried to fd but to many adds. run 3 zoned in ran to temp crossed fire ring and fd'd cleared argo ran to top she argo'd right as i saw her rand down stairs (about 7 add's 2 photo 2 arg war's and a few sk type mobs) fd'd all backed off but her. dunno if it was a bug but she never returned to spawn point. healed up a little (about 10 mins went by) she still stood there hit hide got up(dint see through it) ran back out through fire ring and fd'd and once again she followed and waited. Did no dmg at all to her during this. Imho can be duo'd but would advise one pet class, would also suggest a 60+ sk to pull her as the aa horse is a hotkey/instant cast/can be used while running.buffs did nothing here, was dispelled except for mount by the time i got to fire ring on all 3 runs. the fire ring also kills mount.
The Shissar
# Aug 29 2005 at 8:19 AM Rating: Decent
Hi just wanted to let you know that me (68 chanter)and a 70 bard killed her yesterday. Was very fast and vaery easy. This is what we did.
The bard zoned in ran to safe area and kited all the adds that followed him. Then I zoned in and ran over to same spot he then kited what aggroed me. After this he targeted the Shissar pulled her and alot of other stuff out. Then he fade memories waited for other to walk back and taged her. We had one add with her but it died fast. I tashed and then slowed her no problem. After that i just chained nuked and she was dead within a min. Hope this helps. Ohh this was done yesterday morning on the Karana( Rathe ) if anyone needs the info for spawn.
here is what i know
# Aug 27 2005 at 7:12 PM Rating: Decent
So I killed this chick last night. This is what we used and all the information I can give you.
66 enchanter just leveled with all spells. Mostly elemental gear.
56 cleric mostly ornate gear.
60 necromancer mostly ornate gear.
52 war. Junk gear boc was only good item he had.
This mob is on a 5 to 7 day spawn timer. She will not spawn when the zone pops after a patch.
She has between 10k-15k hit points.
She has an area effect stun it might snare also.
And here is how I did it.
The raith (Karana) server. She died at 2am 08-25-05
I zoned in to fear went north (I was invisible) then east to front area of the amy. temple I used cast site after targeting a protoplasum in the room she spawns in top floor in side fire ring.
Ok so necromancer your up sent in the necromancer to pull the temple. He used his devine ability that makes him immune to damage the hole temple chased him down and he died. (this was the plan).
Now here is where we thank sony for one good thing she is the last mob to go back to the temple (it seems always) you have a few minutes here don’t jump the gun. At this point the enchanter tashes here she comes with some normal zone adds. I mesmerize the adds with area effect mez.
I mez. Her with glamour low mana cost good mez.
Then I wait about 20 sec and mez. The adds in this place her high magic resistance is good she resist it and she comes free. So now you have just her pull her to the north west safe spot (north west corner of the zone on wall). Remez tash slow slow slow. War taunted her wile mezed 7 or 8 times. Then she broke cleric sent in his hammer pet (at this point we just want the regen to stop.
So enc pet in enc chain nooks took gather mana and about 25 nooks to drop here. Her ae. Was resisted buy me (the enc) every time 200+mr. Her dps sucks when slower cleric maybe used 5 ch on tank fight took about 6-10 minutes and I have the head. O and your mezed friends will not come to the safe camp if you get there before the mez drops. (that’s why I call it the safe spot). I wish you all good luck and hope this helps you all out. And to all of you who slay this pain in the but gratz job well done. Ps at 10% she will run she is slow but never the less it will make your hair stand up on back of your neck. From safe spot she runs due east. Try not to kill her in a tree.

Um if it's the EXACT same post then it's probably an accident (or glitch)...
