- Spawned 1 minion earth elemental and 3 little earth elementals (not at the same time) - Small elementals have 11k hp - Big elemental has 55k hp - Done with 1 group of 70's, GoD geared. No struggle
Just did w/ my 76 mage and T1 App cleric merc. Had merc set to Reactive, and pet didnt get below 40%. Once you start, spam nuke the Minion... he has a good amount of HP (I did 25k in DD, + w/e 76 air pet + DS did, im guessing 40K or so). The hosts have approx 10-15k hp each, dont hit very hard at all. Fight lasted about 1.5 min. Not too hard. Only used 30%mana.
Just to clarify for those going in rather blindly like I did. Once you say Bantil sent me to Akksstaff, a minion of akksstaff spawns.. this one was a dark blue con to a 75 mage and was rather high on hp. When this gets to 80% the other adds called a Host of akksstaff start spawning. Focus all your energy on dropping the first one, the MINION. Once that one is down the rest are green cons (to a 75) and have very few hp. I did this boxing a 78 cleric, 73 shaman and 75 mage. Being that I was a bit clueless as to what exactly was going to happen, things were a little hectic at first, but just focus on that first mob and drop him and everything is fine.
As stated before run for the water and head up the hallway to the left, then make a right. he should be all the way in the back corner. Hope this helps those who need him in the future.
If you are working on your 1.5 just a little info for those who don't raid and don't have a bottomless pit of friends to help on demand.
Solo'd this part at level 76 with just over 1000 AA's. The main spawn is not a problem until you get into about the 5th add. Then health starts dropping faster than you can keep up on unless you get a good chain of exceptional heals. If you have primal remedy (which I highly recommend) use it as well. Went through Frenzied Burnout and Replenish Companion AA's. I was playing cleric too much to use much else. Once the main spawn goes down (my pet was at 12%) its smooth sailing.
Not uber geared (by comparison to even solid groupers). Have mostly bazaar purchasable or intricate with exalted symbols. Artisan Charm, tradeskilled jewelry, some teir 1 katta, Elemental Essence Robe, mediocre focus on items.
If you have it better than that it will be a piece of cake for ya.

P 73.0000, -372.0000, 0.0000, 0, 0, 0, 2, Akksstaff

This Guy isn't hard to find. You run to where you find water then run up some hill like things >< Not sure what their called and you'll find him in a coner. =P Good luck for those that are having trouble finding him.
Was working on my necromancer epic. had to get najena, so was running around killing everything. NOTHING landed on this mob, pet did nothing but taunt. I hail'd him, and got a leave me alone message, something about him sicing his pet on me. nothing happen'd so I left him be and went in serch of mobs to drop my keys.
I came here, having gotten only the fire page earlier. The fire page dropped quite often from the magicians and once each from Rathyl Reincarnate and a goblin magician (only page that dropped). I was here for SIX AND A HALF HOURS... AT LEAST!
What I did was first to kill the magician that you'll likely encounter second (with the first one being right past the gate). On the eqatlas map, it's the square room east of 1. Next, I went towards 1 and killed the magician there.
I went down into the area labled A, and killed the magician there, as well as another magician that could spawn or Trazdon (fun fact: the lava here doesn't hurt!).
Next, I went into the area that I like to call the basement. It's a cave type area. Be aware that goblin warriors and minotaurs can respawn as goblin magicians, so kill those, too, including the one in the strange shaped room s of the 2. There are three areas with goblins. The first being the room I just mentioned. Then there's the one where you head south after reaching a ramp (the ramp is the passage to the far east of 2), and then you head north on the ramp to reach the third spawn area. There is one goblin spawn in the first area, with two ogre guards and a wandering guard nearby, three in the second, and six in the third (might be seven, not completely sure). The last one in the area wanders slightly, but not terribly. There's a giant black widow you have to kill between the second and third spot. I then went to the end of the chamber, west, then south to the passage just slightly east of 2.
I then jumped into the water, sic'd my pet on a froglok ghoul (as he is aggro to all levels), and went into the area with Najena. Note that you have to have a key from Drelzna to get here. There are two magicians that spawn here, and Najena or an elemental will spawn in the third place. Afterwards, I headed back out and went to what is labled as 4 on the eqatlas map. This has two magician spawns. Pretty standard stuff here.
Next, I went south of that and when I came to a crossroads, which is labled 6 on eqatlas (after I had gotten the guard's keyring), I went west to fall into the pit with the HIE and the halfling. I opened the door and headed directly towards 11. The room next to 11 was where I got every single one of my new page drops as well as most of my focus item pieces. You need a shiny metal key to get here, and a dull bone key to get to room 11, which drops off of Bonecracker.
After this, I went back, and did it all over again! Note that you need Rathyl's key to get to Drelzna's room, who drops the key you need to get to Najena's room. To get to Rathyl, you need a shiny metal key that drops off of the Ogre Captain, and the dull bone key that drops off of Bonecracker. There's an ogre spawn after Trazdon's room that will aggro you even at level 50, and he dropped the guard's keyring for me. Rathyl's and Drelzna's keys are both no rent, so you'll have to get them again if you need to come here a second time and want to get to Najena's room.
All in all, I got 207 plat, and a book that was an upgrade over my previous secondary (I put my hate candle in secondary and placed book in primary). In addition, I got a Shovel (dropped MANY times), a broom (twice or thrice), a stein (dropped six or seven times), a torch (dropped at least four times), a torn page of mastery: wind (dropped three or four times), water (twice), and earth (last drop, so once). I got fire at least ten times, and Rathyl Reincarnate dropped one of the winds, as well.
So I got the piece of the piece of a piece of my epic, and enough money to upgrade my cloak so that I have 1111 hp self buffed and a lot more mana.
i just did a loc in front of this guy 372 -69 and i could not engage him. after eading the mage epic though i don't think you can unless you give hime the key phrase "Bantil sent me" after which he spawns his minion who around 80% will spawn 9 Host of Akksstaff, one by one. so if you plan on engaging him plan on bringing friends.
Hell i used to tearass through najena, must have killed this guy about 7-8 times. dont recall him being a 4-5 day spawn, considering ive seen him twice in one day. but its jsut fun to go killing through there =P
#REDACTED,
Posted:Sep 10 2004 at 7:38 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) i pissed off some people by killin the guy....im was KOS for awhile with other mages....was hillarious
Ok for one thing.. this guy spawns every 15 mins and he doesn't spawn in the same place twice. You'll have to look around cause he'll spawn whever he feels like it. Another thing is Please don't kill him for fun!?! As I too am a mage I've been hunting for him to turn in mage epic pages but others keep killing him. Its not very nice. For a week now i've been in Najena and haven't seen him at all. Just give a shout and see if theres a Mage in the zone hunting for their epic pieces and Akksstaff.
I just solo'd him with my 36 pally lucky i checked this board before taking him on. Only drk blue in nothing but greens something was definitely wrong LOL. He does have a ton of hp was hitting him with 100dmg on several occasions and barely put a dent in him. Was down to 40% when he was still at 80%. Used lay of hands and he went down. Dropped the dark gold robe, i really didnt want either just the satisfaction of seeing him fall over. LOL be careful with this one
PLEASE!! Do not kill this npc!! He has a long respawn timer and there are mages out there, like myself, that get frustrated when they want to do their epic but cant find their turn-in guy.
i just soloed him for fun.... well he was rude to me... anyways he kicks ****** i have 3k hps and he got me down to 35%... he has a kick **** ds.. he droped the dark gold sr appresntice robe.. didnt expect quite such a hard fight.. hehe becarful of this guy he is way under conned
Was in Najena with my regular team last night. 25 Warrior,24 Ranger,26 Chanter, 26 Cleric, 24 Nec. With Tash we got enough DOT's to stick that he aggroed and killed our Nec before the warrior could get aggro back. He hits fairly hard, but his HP total is the issue. Guy had to have 2000HP+. Resisted Chanter slow many times, moves quickly. When he ran at 15% HP, couln't get Cleric Root to stick, had to chase him for 4 rooms to get him to fall! We had so much fun, we killed him a 2nd time on the way out! Dropped Apprentice Robe each time. The hardest single kill for a mid 20's team in this fine dungeon.
His spawn location (or wait location) is 510, 186 in Najena. If anyone cares between me and my pet we did 2281 damage and took 65 dmg (one punch) He also casts Shock of Spikes which both of us resisted.
lvl 49 necro pet (Invoke death) was used as well as two hits from Torba's Venom Blast (1 for 684 and 1 for 696)
Got the Dark Gold Sr Apprentice Robe* .
I killed him cause I didnt like the way he looked at me, sorry mages.
Also drops Dark Gold Sr. Apprentice Robe* Currently no lookup on allakhazam for it, wonder if it is a quest item? crappy robe, AC 4 mana +2 nec/wiz/meg/enc race: gnome only ...so why is a dark elf carrying a gnomish robe??
Can confirm that. Dot the good-for-nothing robe last night when wandering round Najena wondering what to do with myself. Thought to myself "Woot some good loot here after all!" Boy was I disappointed when I checked the stats! Don't thinbk I'll embarrass myself even giving it to a newbie. Not another soul in Najena the 1/2 - 3/4 hour I was there.
Please shout and see if a mage is hunting him down to turn in his epic first. I was there and a troll and DE was there and killed him.I asked them to let me know when he was up. They killed him again and laughed. So i trained both and laughed when i found out they where binded in DL. So please be nice and let us mage's known and we will get out of there and you can kill him after we turn it in.
Was camping najena for epic (am 46 necro) and this guy spawned in pool just outside her room.Was light blue but was by far the hardest kill i had in zone(pet soloed najena but didnt survive against this guy) dropped a robe and repopped about 15 min later in same place.
I killed him when i saw him, spawn time is about 10 - 15 minutes. kind of strange though, every time i kill him, he is wearing a gnome only robe, even though he is a DE...
