a killer shark  

Ok im sorry to have to do this, but the strength of a shammy is mostly in thier slows. Has ANYONE tried to use this?????? I as of yet to hear 1 case where the shark engaged the shammy, the pet took aggro, then the shammy SLOWED. I have a lvl 57 bard, lvl 52 monk, lvl 52 shammy, lvl 52 druid. My shammy and monk are on 2 different accounts so i can 2 box with them all the time. I have done 2 boxing for hours in ME, KC, Velks, Crystaline Shardwurms in GD, DL, etc, etc. I have taken up to 5 Adds before between my monk and shammy without dying. ( Not in ME though.) In every situation, I lived, unless a extremely unforgiving train came my way. I always give my pet procing velium weapons. The Key to a shammies survial is the slows. That should ALWAYS be the FIRST thing being cast by a shammy unless another class has that role. After all mobs are slowed Shammy with regrowth can take dmg slowly and still have time to cast heals, Dot's, EB's, Etc etc...

Givin i havent done this epic gig yet, im reserching it as I speak, and I havent seen 1 person say they slowed the sharks. I will not cast EB on any of my 2 char. I will buy EB items for both to wear so it cant be dispelled. I could be wrong here, maybe being underwater makes it impossible to do slows, but i highly doubt this is true. Ill try this soon, 2 boxing with my monk so I can take multible mobs at one time.

the sharks also drop fresh fish

I hit one of these for 500 pts damage and it took it down to four and a bit bars (eg. less than 1 bar). I don't think I can kill one even with full mana (being a cleric) w/o getting killed first.

Anyone know the Loc of the rod?

Ive tryed to go down in water and i cant seee A DANG THING!How far do i go???all the way to the bottom? and i will i know i hit the bottom,will i see the bottom?? HELP!<<<cant see anything but darkness?

Well speaking from experience of these sharks and this part of the Shaman epic quest I can tell you that 1) All the Killer Sharks I ran into could see me just fine with invis vs animals, and then just plain invis when I went to get my corpse on the bottom of the sea. 2) They do dispell your enduring breath and levitate and sow, and only once was I lucky and able to get a gate off. 3)I think they are over the stated level in the guide as they conned deep blue and yellow to me at lvl 45.

I was kind of mad as I had to repeat this part of the quest 4-5 times due to running from Killer Sharks, and the last time that I died I still managed to get the Broken Arrow from the Abe Knucklehead, but got spanked by JAWS as the Greater Spirit was spawning sigh....And the next thing I know I was floating along with the rest of them.. Take friends.. people who can mez, or kite them away..more the merrier.. this is hard alone..

Verymuch Satisfied

Ok. so will regular invis work or do I need invis vs animals?

I was on erudsxing waiting for a named kittycat to spawn (for the heros bracer quest) and this shark was beached, near by the docks. Conned him and he was red and INDIFFERENT to me. Looked in the zone and there was only myself and a lvl 8 mage in the zone.

Strange, as I thought that maybe this shark was charmed, but since there was noone in the zone that could do that, I really have no idea.

Anyways, I decided to see if I could nuke him and proceeded to waste all of my mana on him (193 int), had some ice and magic resist but basically no fire (hitting for full 250). I took him down to around half health (2200 dmg done by me, I counted). Was amazed at his huge HPs, casted harvest, medded for a minute and decided to have another go. I nuked him again for 250 and his health had regenned back upto 4/5ths health. *sigh*. A necro with a disease based dot would have been nice heh.

I camped after that.

32 druid here. I was wandering around with lev on and this guy came up on track. Seeing as he was red, I invised (inv to anim) and tracked him down. Needless to say, lev wore off before I reached him. I swam the rest of the way, only for him to aggro... and 450 damage later I decided this was bad... 300 damage after that, this druid was toast. =P

If you look at the doll under the Known loot, you might notice the average price is a bit high. Is that a joke? I'm pretty sure it was, but I'm asking just to be on the safe side.

was wanting to go here with a shaman friend of the same lvl (both 58) and just dot and run. Not sure if they get as high as 45 but if they do they still will give exp. Sounds like nobody hunts here.

For shaman working on their epic quest these sharks can be something of a concern. The Test of Patience has you sitting at the bottom of Erud's Crossing for about 40 minutes. During that time its very likely on or more of these will swim into aggro range of you. I would recommend that if you try this solo to be at least 49th level. You'd need envenomed bolt and the frenzied spirit. I would equate the Killer Sharks to underwater versions of hill giants. They've a lot of hit points and hit hard and fast. At level 45 I did this part of the quest with assistance from a 45 ranger and a 39 druid. Good luck..(the Shield of Falsehood looks cool by the way)

If your corpse is too far below you you can't /corpse it to you.. and corpses sink in the water. I dont think you can levitate over the water, anyway
