proud?
# Jun 21 2005 at 6:43 AM Rating: Default
This message is for all those "proud" rogues who think the world cant turn without them....FYI this is a bard mask and there is a way to get through without a "all powerful rogue" and u dont even have to go very far into the zone, i went in pulled off my lil trick (which i will be willing to share with any bard who sends me a tell ;t drinal.wolver) killed a couple PHers spawned assassin and bam got the mask all solo, all single pulls. So all u rogues who think u are needed in the camping of this mask ....u are wrong.

Thank you for the completely useless and undoubtedly bogus information. It would have been more helpful if you had posted your miracle solution instead of acting like you had one.

No acting.... just the crappy Mez summon trick through walls works great and was very easy, if u enter from the Grey and walk stright to the hall ahead of the entrence there is a secret lil opening on the left side of the hall with a fake door and there is a snake on the other side. stand up against it, aggro it, dps it, mez it, get summoned..... pretty easy any bard with a mez that makes the mob move when mez lands can camp this mask with ease. GL to all that's camping it atm.

are you ok ket? cause if im right, bards get pick lock to, maybe not as high but then again who cares, if you want to pick high lvl lovks then make a rogue or work up your AA's or something, dont think anyone here really cares about your "rogue bashing" so GL on any future attempts to dis rogues cause you think that you are better then them in some fashionable way, ohh and i hope you trip on your shoelaces!

you can use a eye to open the door also and run in after it.

we got to the room that has the door .. and our briliant mage said
"see if the door opens"

and as the eye passed .. it did.. so we all ran in ... woot ... open door

BUT .. traps still there .. ouch they hurt

Is the trap leading to the room where this fool spawns resistable? Magic/poison or other?

The trap text is
A Shissar Ghost begins to cast a spell.
You stagger as foreign thoughts enter your mind.

The effect is Serpentine Curse - single target DoT + mana drain, 30 min duration. 9 curse counters. It will kill you if you can't cure it, so try not to get any on you.

may be an older post, but no matter...
assuming you MUST have a rogue with you makes an @$$ out of you and m... well, just you really. i can get past almost any locked door in Ssra, and im a Mage. and before you assume you know anything, no not from /pet attack and sitting agro summon. alot of times my pet will stun and proc initially gaining taunt, so summon is not gonna happen. and no, im not going to share my trick, i like Ssra quiet tyvm. just wanted to dispell the myth that a rogue is needed to gain access to most areas in Ssra. also with some decent innate regen and HoT potions you can survive the HP portion of this dot np, only issue becomes mana, even with a c6 and SA and maxxed FT sitting was only netting 5 mana a tick, so after a time youre likely to run outta mana and youll just be sitting waiting for dot to time out and popping HoT potions every 2 mins ><

For anyone else out there wondering, I couldnt resist it with 500 to all saves. RGC cures it easily.

...Bards get sense/disarm trap too...
RE: Trap
# Nov 19 2004 at 12:28 PM Rating: Default
FYI,

Bards sense and disarm at half the skill of rogues (and even less for pick lock). I wouldn't run into a high level zone hoping that a bard senses and disarms for you. Bards are great just don't think that their rogue-type skills are going to help you with hard zones.

Key / Locked Door
# Jan 21 2004 at 5:29 PM Rating: Default
We took out Assassin this morning without a Rog present, got summoned thru the wall and I single pulled him using Pacify and a Bow. The mask dropped along with the book. The mask was going to rot but we were able to send tell to random Rogue a couple zones away and he made it in time. He also was kind enough to let us out of the room since the door was locked LOL.

I don't think he realizes how many people try to get their hands on this, he was very lucky this morning. I almost looted it just to /taunt any arrogant bards I may meet in the future, but as it is I am glad it went to someone who could use it for better purposes.

Question: Does anyone know if that door has a Key, and which mob drops it. I have Keys for some places in the temple but not that door, it's kinda been bothering me that I don't have total access. Any help would be appreciated greatly.

ok
first, go from grey zone, take door straight ahead, to the end, left, to the end. another left takes you to a little door, behind it are 3 (or at least 1) see invis snakes, kill them. in their room is another door, locked. get past it, into a hall way. at the opposite end of the hall way is a temple guard, behind him is the trap, disarm it. beyond him, very close by, are 2 other snakes, kill them. go through the hole in the wall, up the ramp, open door. you're there.

standing at the door looking in you'll see a ledge with a snake at each corner, and a pit with 8 snakes (2 per corner).

a shissar assassin spawns at the opposite side of the pit, to the left of the ramp, loc -275, +215...random. have had him pop 2 times in 5 hours.

on the other side of the opposite ramp, loc -275, +260, Disciple Zhorluhx spawns.

in the far right corner, on the outside ledge, Commander Zazuzh spawns, twice in 3 days.

personally, pacify is your friend. spawn time is 20 minutes on the nose, elites can randomly spawn anywhere (3 at once hurts, btw, non-mezzable by 65 bard). assassin is the only one non-slowable. none of the snakes walk when near dead, unless you kill them REALLLLLY slowly.

good luck on the mask hunting: 1 down, 1 to go =D

Testament of ?
# Jun 08 2003 at 3:05 PM Rating: Decent
Guild went searching for Bane Weapons and Shards for VT Key, and we took a little field trip over to the Assassin because I wanted to get the mask. No luck, he dropped the Gloves and a Testament of Night

It's a no drop book that I can't seem to find any info on. The book is only 2-3 pages long and talks about some experiment on a Vah Shir and trying to make a god, or something along those lines. Anyone have any info?

Full Text on Testament of Night:

For the ear of the Emperor I write in my own blood, accepting my death as the seal for this testment. The ceremony performed on the Vah Shir captive has failed. Our attempt to leash the divine, to merge mortal flesh with the power of the gods has gone awry. All that is widely known is that both is that the captives and his masters perished in a mistaken spell. The truth is that the captive transcended somehow, consuming many of your loyal servants with his newfound powers. Our agents seek him, but there is little hope that he will be found. He has escaped and we have failed. We bow before you to accept your judgement. We cannot carry out your command, dread Emperor. A god cannot be made.
RE: Testament of ?
# Oct 18 2003 at 3:30 AM Rating: Decent
I think it has to do with the Ssraezhians trying to turn a Vah Shir adventurer named Khati Shah into a God. The experiment went horribly wrong as you can see from the text above...Khati Shah escaped to Acrylia Caverns i guess, since he's the Boss their now, and harder than the Emp to kill. Check out http://eqbeastiary.allakhazam.com/search.shtml?id=12554 for more in depth description.

Results in a very nice earring/ring. Gotta kill this guy, Shissar Magister, one of 2 easy mobs in AC, and then Khati Sha... He's the last mob in the new Acrylia Ring. Protect 2 Cats in jail, and eventually 18skeletons (500+, mezzable) spawn. Kill all those, then Ward of Life spawns, then Ward of Death spawns, then Khati Sha. Tough for any guild not really at the Elemental level (not only in terms of equipment, but encounters).

This guy is badass, camped him with my friends for awhile for the kitty mask. Killed him around 7 times I believe, dropped the mask finally. He also dropped some gloves, almost every time, I think they were 3%+ for picklocks, and the scales. he hits for 200-450 around there. nasty little guy but worth it for the kitty mask :) meow! =^_^=

<quote>Go threw the door strait from enterance of zone, go all the way to end then make a left head all the way down the hall and make another left which leads you to a room with a locked door (youll need a rogue with 210 skill lock picking) once threw the locked door have rogue sence trap cause there a nasty curse trap that drains all your mana and then all your life. The trap resets very fast so sence disarm move quick. then from there youll come to a ramp goes up to the right in that room ontop the ramp is assassin. Be warned tho he is immune to slow so hope you got 60 tank and ching ability. Well hope this helped ya )<quote>

Missed a couple drops from post below
# Mar 05 2002 at 1:53 PM Rating: Default
I appologize for having to make a double post on this, but was late last night and I missed a couple things.

The named mob that popped (blue at 54) was Commander Zazuzh who dropped Idol of Zauuzh's which i understand to be for use in a key quset for this zone. This item is nodrop. Also a few random mobs dropped 1 star ruby, and 2 rubys. 2 mobs randomly dropped a pure caster only range item with stats of 5 AC 50 HPs, again an item that was droppable probly good for a lvl 5 twink, most casters capable of getting to this room and holding the camp should already have better range items.

Heh, you should never assume that. I'm 65 and I just got rid of my Goranga Idol the other day. I'm not a caster, but I would have very happy for a 50hp range item.

# Mar 05 2002 at 4:21 AM Rating: Excellent
Conned blue to me today at lvl 54. so lvl is wrong. Was not really any more difficult than the standard room mobs. Easier that the Elites. Elites are lvl 55. Assasin dropped kitty mask frist kill, though he only popped once in the 3 hours we were there and we were holding the entire room clear.

On a side note this has go to be the most fun that I have had in EQ since my first plane raid. 12 mobs in this room, 8 on the base floor, and 4 up on a ledge that circles the room. the mobs on the floor stand in pairs and will add unless you got a monk to pull. The mobs on the ledge are easy to single pull. We had 3 groups for this which was probly overkill (all 54+) and had no problem the couple times we got adds.

The 12 spawn points here randomly spawn Assasin, Spirit binder, Priest, Archanist, Elite, or random named mob. In about 3 hours we saw 1 Assasin, about 3 Elite, 1 named mob, and others were very common. Spawn time is about 15 minutes I think, so the killin needs to go fast. Having a few 60 wizards in your party is not a bad idea at all. For the most part mobs here have very very low magic resistance, though I was resisted on a few of my fire spells, even on the lower lvl mobs.

Shissar scales dropped commonly, about 4 Undead Shissar scales, lots of Shissar fangs, 3 50+ spells; these were off random mobs. Like i said Assasin popped once and dropped mask. Elites seemed to drop rather worthless weapons. They were dropable, so maybe something nice for a lvl 5 twink; 1HB +5 wis 7/22 priest usable, for a lvl 55 mob this makes no sence. A similar 1HS dropped once off Elite.

I highly recomend going to this place, even just for fun, the loot is good if you want spells, or kitty masks, but it is just very fun when you got mobs popping as fast as you can kill them and they all hit for 230-400.

Thought it would be nice to know some info about this area as there is not much here :)
