Not always around ToFS

After spending a few days killing the shadow guardian around ToFS with no luck -- I decided to move to the other island where the snow dervishes are -- sure enough the pulsating icestorm was wandering around -1150, 5540 ... not sure if the named wanders this far from ToFS or if a snow dervish was the PH....

Doing hunter achievement, here is the best way to find him.

Pull/kill all of the Shadow Guardians around Tower of Frozen Shadow and AE them at once if possible. There are ~30 of them. Respawn / repop / spawn time for PH is ~6 mins 30 seconds.

Only took one cycle to get him to spawn. Don't bother with Snow Dervishes on the first island if you're going specifically for this guy.

I've killed this mob several times in Iceclad. It's blue to a Lvl 40 druid and magic/fire based spells seem to land with few resists. So far I've looted 2 Iceballs (sold one to someone needing it for brewing) , 1 Torque of Hoar Frost, and a Frosted Gem -5str +3 Int +30 mana secondary/range slot. It has more hps then the shadow guardians and has an, I believe, Cold based "proc" which normally lands around the 30's, but I believe I've been hit with it b4 while sitting and took a Max hit of 85ish. This Mob seems to be on the spawn table around ToFS, as well as the Isle with the Dire wolves which has the Bridge to EW. I've seen it more commoly on the ToFS Isle though. More then likely because this Isle is hunted more often on my server for the Cougars. Oh... Torque of Hoar frost is 1Ac 10 hp/mana and 10 vs cold I belive. That's all the info I have for now =).

This guy jumped my half-dead group outside ToFS a few days ago. Seemed to be a lot harder than the rest of the guardians that had been hanging around. He was nice enough to drop the chill dagger, although the dagger is kinda disappointing. Only notable for a +10 SVC.

Ice ball is used for Velious brewing. You need to make Tainted Avalanche Ale to complete 9th Coldain ring . Rumorered Trivial around 248. Ingredients : Bottle , An Iceball , an Ice Wyvren Stinger , Arctic Mussels , Seahoarse Scales , a Runed Seashell (cloud) and a vial of mind melt ... Good luck

just to let you all know, i too just killed him and i also recieved an iceball. i am thinkin it has to be a joke item or something,because it has rediculous dmg/dly and it goes in range slot.

Well personally I've never seen this guy on track even running through Iceclad numerous times, but what I can tell you is that the frozen mantle, iceball and chill dagger are all possible drops off of snow dervishes. So are the torque of hoar frost and ring of frost. The frosted gem as far as I know IS the rare drop off this guy, as I haven't heard of them dropping off dervishes. The druid who posted here obviously doesn't know much about the value of items in this game, a 3 INT 30 MANA range slot IS a great drop, superior to the dustscryer's ball, shardwurm eye and student's homework (unless you need the MR from the homework). I play a wizard and would love to have one in my range slot.

Got a frosted gem off a Blizzard Dervish in EW. Being a bard, I shouted out the loc of it. don't know if anyone got it or not (but I hope so)

Stats are: Magic/Lore/No Drop
Range and Secondary slots
Str -5 Int +3 Mana +30
Wt. 0.5 Size: Tiny
Class: Clr Dru Shm Nec Wiz Mag Enc
Race: All

If anyone knows about this item(what it is for and such), please post it here. Thanx, i will be keeping my eye open for this one again. Watch out he is a tough little bugger if u r not prepared.

For spawn Loc and such contact me on Prexus) good luck, Friends.

I just killed this guy again. I saw him on track near bridge in Iceclad. Easy kill this time at Lvl 38. He dropped a Chill Dagger. Decent stats but worth about but worth only 35pp or so. I figure this guy must drop something really nice as a rare loot. I am using the Frosted Gem i got last time im my range slot.) If I find anything of real value or interest I will post again.

Good luck to all and may your exp be at max.) Keebo Sabi (Sign of Unity) Look for me on Prexus =)

nice drops

this mob drops some nice magic + stat items. I can't name any off the top of my head but it is worth noting that it does drop some nice stuff.
It is a caster and is a even harder kill then the other floating killing machines so good luck
