a spectre
Undead
Uploaded July 24th, 2007
In Low Level Zones:
Warrior.
Spectres hit for a maximum of 96, and tend to attack rather quickly. They move somewhat slowly, and can be outrun even without speed-enhancing spells.
They have relatively few hp for their level, which is offset by their high damage output. Their two special attacks of a stun spell and a lifetap spell also help their damage output.

I lead a group as a 45 pally, 39 chanter, 40 sk, a 31 druid, 34 wiz, and a 40+ shammy. I got levi ran up and pulled whole island...stopped rooted all but 1 of them...ran back to group. Fear kited him with snare and fear undead and did this to each one as they broke root. I would run up a little and root ones that broke early or chanter would mez. Nobody ever went below 50% health or 30m except for buffing, but that doesn't count. Great xps, but loot suxxed...oh well. We pulled by inn, so we could sell those darn heavy bronze scythes...LOL It was funny watching all the low lvl peeps running nearby the croc area just stare at us and take pics. No one even came near us for fear of dying...rofl

these guys seem to be local favs to train to the docks in Oasis....real funny. sitting meding and have someone shout Train to Docks. you got time to stand up scream and try to run as 2 to 3 Specs roll over the area. A little more warning time would be nice.

You should see what people do when a mage summons one as a pet and starts walking around.
At least no one dies then but it was amusing.

I can confirm that (at least the spectres in OOT) do NOT see through regular invisibility, not sure with Camouflage. And if it worked in OOT it should work in the Catacombs, Feerrott and Oasis as well.

I have a very good friend IRL who's a chanter on povar with meh. He actually managed to solo the entire spec island in oasis from levels 32 to 35. Any idea how?
You guessed it:charm. He pulled with a tash, brought em back, counted his pull (3,4 was common), then charmed the tashed one, and sicced it on the nearest chasing spec. Immediately, all the spectres jump on it. After all, its your pet, heh. Anywho, if you've seen specs fight you know they hit hard, double for 90's commonly and have a weak lifetap to boot (shivers). So the spec would tear up one, and then before the second killed his pet spec he would hide, run back a bit, nuke once to kill his DM'd pet, and then charm the last one. Then he had the pet sit down and pulled from the island back to it. Rinse, repeat. Very very funny indeed. Also, phat xp =). He got from 32 to 35 in a few days playing very casually.
Btw, don't quote me on his exact method or flame if its wrong in some way please....i'm not an enchanter and I'm not altogether familiar with all their spells, but I do know that the basic idea is charm, fight, kill, charm.
Have fun.

He also gets a lot of people mad at him but hey hes a nec and he 60.

How are you supposed to single pull specs from the isle? I (a level 39 shaman) was in oasis, pulled a spec with Scourge, and when I turn to look the entire island is behind me! I kited them around (quite easy, seeing how slow they are) for 15 minutes, had them down to a sliver of health, when my SOW wore off and I got scared (sorta in the middle of nowhere). I had to cast Spirit of Cheetah and haul my sorry Barbarian **** to the zone.. They're tough, aye.. And the lifetap has a very long range; I believe the people that said it was a proc is wrong, because I never once in this ordeal got slashed, but was down to 2 bubs of health from full 790 hp just from their lifetaps.

ok im here to report a correction ok specs spell that they cast is lifedrain not lifetap lifetap is alvl 1necro spell and alvl 9 sk spell
The spell is listed as a "lifetap" just to describe what kind of spell it is. Surely no one would think that a level 37 spectre would only have a level 1 necro spell in it's ******** :)
Ok, there are multiple zones with Spectres in them. The only ones who see through Invis to Undead are in Ferrott. None of the others do. They are very susceptable to fear spells (I'm level 30 on the char I tried this with, and level does make a difference) They do move slow, but hit very hard. Best bet, group with a necro or SK. Snare/Dooming Darkness, Fear. Hack and slash. Easy Exp. Just don't expect this to work in Feerrott, as they seem to be much tougher (being that close to fear must make them more viscious).

will someone please respond to question about globe of fear(what quest it's used in).and dont say 'some necro quest',i want to know which one.thank you.
I picked up a Globe of Fear off a Spectre corpse in Oasis of Marr. I was curious what it was and have done the following research.
Thanks to an anonymous poster in the same message board about Spectres, I found the following link:
http://eqdb.allakhazam.com/qsearch.html?qitem=2870
From that link, there are 3 other links to items that are "words of research." In order for Necromancers to obtain their higher level pet spells, they must research certain words. Don't bother reading about the quests unless you're a high lvl Necro interested in learning about the quests or have a globe of fear and wish to sell it for perhaps 10-20 pp.
I've also read that some lvl 16 enchanter placed the item in his secondary slot and it proc. fear onto a monster. Although I have yet to see that happen for me and I'm a lvl 16 Mage.
Hope the info helped. If you wana chat about it or other stuff, plz send tell. My main char. is Zacory on server Fennin Ro.

The post I am responding to, and the three directly below, were all apparently written by the same dimwitted, non-period-using babbling chowderhead. They provide nothing useful. Please, if you are able, rate them "Awful" so they get nuked from view.
There's enough crap to wade through without stuff like this making it worse.

I was in a Spec group yesterday. we had 39 mage, 43 Chanter, 38 Druid, and 42 War. We owned the Specs with the Chanter Mez, and Charm, took out whole isle, 4-5 at a time. Then I got bold and Nuked for too much and had 3 aggro on me, dead wthin 10 secs... be careful when pulling Specs. And never pull to Dock's. The Noob's and lowbies will hate you. Heh.

i think they are talking about mele range not spell range
Spectres have a lifetap proc that they'll occasionally cast, and while the damage is minimal, and at best annoying, it's a good indicator to find out their level!
Spectrelifetap, as the spell is, does the mob or PC's level + 1 in lifetap. Thus a spectre that lifetaps you for 35 is a 34th level spectre.
If you don't believe, find a spectre that cons white and let it lifetap you, you'll see it does your level + 1, just a bit of FYI on finding out the level of a given spec you're fighting. =)

Not sure if you are just joking or not...but if NPC kills NPC, the body goes POOF, and there is no loot. So you probably looted some PC's kill. Please try to be a bit more considerate of another's hard work next time. This type of stuff makes for hard feelings in games, and we have enough people doing this now, causing others to get upset and ruining the spirit of the game.
If you plan to do this on a regular basis, don't be surprised when later in the game you can't find a group and get reported on a frequent basis.

pulled them for 10pp onto the mainland and then dragged a minimum of 4 of them to the zone with NRo.On the way back they went right past the docks where I was healing up. I was at half hp!Three of them attacked me. Thank god they're slow because somehow I was able to make it to the zone line with my life. Anyhoo thats my complaint of the day.
