The reason these guys look like "werebats" is because they are wearing caps. You can find this with any of the Kobolds in the Warrens. If you kill one and loot it, you will find that they always drop a cap of some sort. When you take the cap, you will notice the "werebat" look disappear.
Please I tried to look everywhere but apparently no one except Erudites tried to do the quest. I'll explain : I am a lvl 30 Dark-Elf wizard on Tallon Zek, went to Odus to seek this nice belt to replace this damn raw silk sash, killed the bat lord under his 2 shapes, got the hat, and then went invis to Azzar Habbib in the lookout tower of the newbie zone, gave him the belt but...got attacked. I managed to zone, but now I want to know if there's any way to get the sash, except killing 2 dozen hundred Kobolds...Thanks by advance. Zvoltar Burninghand, follower of Solusek Ro AKA Mr BBQ
I was able to do this quest (high elf enchanter) at lvl 40 because Azzar was green and didn't aggro. I went through the Warrens and killed every dog in the place and Azzar was still scowling, ready to attack. Duriel Bloodpool who is right next to Azzar went from scowling to dubious however(very important as his lvl is listed as 55). So, even if you are of a lvl where you can deal with Azzar without him aggroing you need to get your heretics faction up for Duriel. Hope this helps.
My partner and I journeyed to the far continent of Odus simply to find and eliminate this beast. We went with the intention of getting the sash from the Azzar's Dreadful Hat quest.
We camped the Cave Bat Lord on three occasions, less than an hour each time. The first two times he spawned he appeared as a large werebat and did not drop the hat. The third occasion he appeared as a large kobold and did drop the hat. Interestly enough, when he appeared as a kobold there was an unusual looking Hunter patrolling nearby: it had a kobold body, werebat's head and werebat arm wings could be seen when it ran.
All three times we faced this beast he was 22nd level because he conned white to me. I suspect that his level does not fluctuate. He has a spawn time of more than twenty minutes, but I can't say how much more.

i dont think so, a human pally friend of mine has hunted warrens for around 10 lvls, hes spent hours just killing runts and guards for faction, hes now lvl 26 and still kos :(
This is a silly quest... One of the quest items you have to buy is listed as selling for 20pp from vendors... for 20pp you can go and buy yourself a Savant's Cap 2 AC 3 WIS 3 INT, about 20x better than this thing.
The cave bat lord spawns with two different looks to him. One is the Kobold pictured above, and the other is a large werebat looking guy (like the ones in Unrest)
He's blue to me at lvl 30, so I'm thinking he's a little higher than 20. I could be completely mistaken tho.
Conned Yellow to my level 20 warrior. 30 minute respawn rate. The nice thing about his is that he spawns alone (except the bats flying around in the room).
