The Avatar of War  

Raid Encounter
Screenshot

Uploaded July 24th, 2007

In Kael Drakkel: The Avatar of War spawns in the arena after the death of The Idol of Rallos Zek. It's highly resistant to fire, but weak to ice and magic.

In Kael Drakkel, the King's Madness: Spawns after The Idol of Rallos Zek dies. It AE rampages; its "Devastation of Rallos" hits everyone on its hate list. Reportedly, The Avatar of War despawns after having been up for 20 minutes regardless of whether it is aggro (The Avatar of War is the final mob in a three-named ring that starts with The Statue of Rallos Zek.) It sees through Invisibility. It has a large agro range and will assist other mobs nearby.

#REDACTED, Posted: Oct 10 2002 at 12:09 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) The other day I killed AoW with Valhall on Veeshan server and oh my god. That guy kicked my butt hit me for 866hp LOL lucky that was only one of the 4 hits that he hit me in like 1 second! Heck he even bashed me for over 200hp haha. By the way maybe I dont have alot of AC at the time I had 1256ac I mean for a melee doing that raid it may not have been enough...but anyway I just wanted to kill him for a faction hit hehe.
minimun hit

Are you positive of this? In my experience, AoW only spawns after Idol has been killed, and then is only up for 30 or 45 non-aggro minutes (timer is seemingly suspended as long as he is aggro). After that time, he despawns. Unless you ran into him while another guild was preparing to kill.

That would be correct, another guild was prepping for him, and they pulled him and he paid me a visit on the way...

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'll try that strategy except I'll solo him instead. The fight will be much shorter though than in the video. Funniest thing I've seen all month.

My guild Stasis just took this guy down for the first time, and let me tell you.. it is a hellova fight. We made many atempts and it took us those tries to figure out the right mix of people and do enough planning to finnaly drop him. It was worth it however, GC spam went on for the whole day with grats etc..oh and the loot was good too!

Yes, you see he's very easy. The object is to never actually fight him or even see him. Just come to Alla's, post that you're on a server in a guild, but don't list the name of guild. Also, don't list the names of the other guilds he's 'so easy' for, or your character name for that matter. Just talk like you're cool, tell people how easy he is to kill and pat yourself on the back for another poorly executed gloat.

I can't speak for the other servers, I know on Mithaniel Marr, we've got some great guilds, only 2 of which are AoW capable. Afterlife and Forsaken Realm. Everyone else either can't get the strategy together or doesn't have the numbers.

Me, I've seen the fight, never fought him personally. I'm not in AL or FR, I'm in Dark Bane, and while we're working towards the encounter, we're not ready yet. Most guilds aren't, some may never be. But no matter how you slice it, there is nothing 'easy' about the AoW. You miss one step on your CH rotation, one split second, and your 7300'ish HP MT just bit it and if you don't have aggro re-established on another high HP secondary tank, you just collectively bought the farm.

AoW, throws down some mad flurry action, if he double flurries, which can and will happen ever so often, your tank is down. The brain work in this encounter is ridiculous. The thought that's involved, not to mention the timing, makes this an encounter of adrenaline pumping proportions.

And so I don't make the hypocritical mistake as the prior poster; Me character name is Antiochus Thundermonkey, I'm a 60 monk on the MM server and a member of dark-bane. I even make julienned fries.

A perfectly accurate first paragraph; I think you have the demographic down perfect.

#REDACTED, Posted: Aug 15 2002 at 12:30 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) me gustan los monstruos que no pueden ser reducidos la marcha, me gustan las muchedumbres que son inmunes a mucha ortografía, porque estoy harto de gremios que matan muchedumbres como los carceleros sin muertes y pienso que deberían haber verdaderas muchedumbres resistentes solamente(justo) para gremios súper como foh (las muchedumbres inmunes a reducen la marcha, mutilan, etc.), aparently fastidia thal era un disspointment como cada muchedumbre fue matada dentro de una semana (.

Ganlaan is right

You guys are fools to say he is not tough, that is what you see, you don't see the tactics required to kill him, or the tank change techniques which cannot be mastered regardless of equipment.
#REDACTED, Posted: Aug 01 2002 at 2:17 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Bah he is so easy for xegony, like 5 guilds can take him down no prob and my guild just about there to do it now
