Killed her last night
# Dec 19 2002 at 4:56 PM Rating: Decent
me (a 44 cleric), a 54th druid, a 39 warrior, and 39 shaman all heard shouts of the newbs leveling near the zone that something called the dark huntress was killing them all the time, so we decided to go check this mob out. Conned red to me, blue to the 54 druid so we buffed the warrior and he tanked her, his life bar was down to 40 within 30 seconds she was hitting well into the 100's. Druid nuked shaman dotted i healed the warrior and threw in a nuke or 2 seemed to have no resists, took her out quite easily with one near death expiernce. She was kos to us all, don't think this evil women likes anyone. Anyway if you see her and aren't with a strong group of 40+ or are alone pre 60, i'de run if i were you she can't outrun sow cause i ran from her earlier then this fight heh hope this helps.
Huntress sucks

she doesnt drop jack. we killed her about 10 times while looking for Black Dire, well waiting for him anyway, tons of hp, not too magic resistant I landed E-bolt and slow almost every time. She is definitely no one you wanna tackle alone before 60, mid fifties if you are equipped well and have a healer

No need to kill her for blackdire to spawn, all you need to kill is the advisor. (drops a nice robe as well) and blackdire will spawn. Tip. when walking back over the bridge clean mobs and you have a visual on him hust down. A druid can cast harmony of nature from there on the mobs around him. rest of the party can already clean way to him and blackdire can be singlepulled.

62 Mage here - I haven't been in MM very much in a long time but I was in today to do the Dire for a shammy and I saw this mob plowing through the natives over past the pond in the corner. I think she was trained to the zone in earlier and was making her way back. The shammy warned me about her as I was heading over and when I saw her, I was surprised to see something new in this zone.

I was invis and didn't hang around to see what she was up to (though I did con her as light blue... highest con in MM and it's running around the easiest part). I went over to the chasm in front of the Dire and began to clear a fighting area. A few minutes later little miss cant be wrong is walking up to where I am, a pile of bodies in her wake (not only do I feel sorry for the peeps trying to xp here now, I feel sorry for the poor mistmoore mobs which enjoyed much safer lives before her arrival).

She aggro'd and she and her pet went through 1 of my pets (62 water) by the time her health approached 40 - 50 percent. My second pet took care of the rest. She got one of the boiling line of dots off on me (it did no noticeable damage) but I resisted a bunch of others I didn't pay attention to.

I daresay she's much harder than simply chaining 2 pets makes her sound. If you are in MM for xp and she takes a liking to you, she will eat you and yours for lunch; if you're pre 60ish, beware: she's a nasty bit of business.


I hope that the human model used is not the true form this mob is supposed to take (as suggested by an earlier poster). I'd like to see what they had in mind and I also hope that it signals a MM upgrade.

Killed Me :(

I am a 51st bard and went in to see if the Catiff was up. I got to the bottom of the ramp at the entrance and took a single spell hit for about 500hp ... I was not impressed - ran back up the ramp and turned to see what had hit me (thinking must have been a left over from a train).

I saw this bold headed woman with just her rags on - what the hell - conned her Dark Blue. She was coming up the ramp now so thought I better zone - but it was just at that point I got hit by some necro root+dot ... I did not live but laughed!

I was on again last night with my level 24 cleric with a 27warrior friend - she came out of nowhere again and made us think about moving to another zone. I have reported it as a bug - this zone is not used enough any way and this will just spoil it if its not fixed :(
Faction?

Anyone have any clue what faction she's on? You get no faction hits for killing her, she wanders around killing the mobs in the zone, she cons indifferent to me (Erudite Enchanter), but she's KOS to the Dark Elf Mage I was grouped with. *shrugs*
Damn Wench!

Ran into her several time tonight while trying to get the Black Dire for a young shaman in our guild. Conned dark blue to my 60 warrior, she sticks around zone more now, and popped 3 time in 30 minutes that I saw, killed her once by zone, another group took her down by the zone, and she popped on my **** as i headed for zone after finding both Dire and PH weren't up. She's a lil ******.

Dark Huntress now hangs around the zone, and is much more common than before when she was random and depopped after a few seconds. She drops nothing, not even a copper. I'd imagine that she's just a random spawn to make the zone more interesting/challenging. Sorta like Sand Giants in Oasis.
She isn't very mr at all, never resisted a song. Parsed 2 fights, she has about 10k hp, and relatively decent ac, i had almost 10 less dps on her than I did on her pet (she uses the level 49 necro pet, and it does lifetap).
During both fights she used the same pattern, she meleed mostly at the beginning, occasionally casting a fear or screaming terror or a paralyzing earth, but once she hits the 30% hp mark, she lets loose with ignite blood, insidious retrogression, incinerate bones, blast of poison, and dooming darkness. Both fights looked relatively easy, until at the very end. both fights ended with me at about 20% hp, and I was full until she started casting the nasty spells. I'm a level 61 bard, and she was a fairly easy takedown, although I probably would have died the first time i fought her without an ss bp for heals and i even had to get out a BoH to regen enough to offset her dots, they're nasty.
I also get the impression that she's not supposed to appear as a naked human (which is the default when you dont have the texture for the mob). I first thouoght this when I noticed that when she cast, the particle effects came from the center of her body (which is what happens when the texture defaults), rather than her hands, as would be the case if she was supposed to be a human. So, I'm interested in seeing just what it is she really looks like, since it's bound to be something unique. She uses the iksar soundbank when she melees and gets hit, but I dont think that's what she is.
Any ideas? Gonna /bug it when I log back in.

I just killed her 3x in about an hour today. Not even plat each time.

Definately looks like she can pop in place of any other mob, I saw her in Bath, as a wanderer, and in piano room.

Dark Blue at 61.

She doesn't just buff and depop anymore, she seems to stay up for quite some time.

Probably left over from some half implemented quest from release.

While we were camping Xiconiti, she appeared in the bedroom. We had a decent group with us, so we attacked. It killed 1 person in our party, but we ended up killing it. Upon it's death, it just vanished. Needless to say, we were upset that we couldn't loot it.
Very spooky

Well I was camping the Avenging Caitiff in the staircase right by the bridge and the tower. All the sudden I see the Dark Huntress cast a few buffs on top the staircase then a second later the Avenging Caitiff spawns...I dunno if its some sort of connection or not but thats my encounter with her ^_^

i saw her right up close and personal. was farming mistmoor and entered piano room and there she was buffing herself right in front of me. she conned dark blue to me (i'm 56 magician). she didn't attack me. i turned to deal with the other mobs in the room and when i turned around again she was gone. her title was just as it says, dark huntress. didnt know who she was until i came across this forum tonight. after reading the info here i guess i'm to believe that i am incredibly lucky that she did not attack me. i wasn't with a group, just my lonesome. mathus majere 56 magician on the rathe server.

ok guys here what i know about the Dark Huntress. alot of this info came from very good friends and long time player. ok she a random pop in the zone and she is only there for the time it take to cast one buff on herself. after that she will depop about 10 sec or so. She looks like a human female newbie ("naked"). When I saw her, she spawned in the passage that leads from the newbie pond to the graveyard. i have asked a GM friend about her and was told noone to date has ever killed her. when i asked about her loot i got no reply so i did not push it. if you can cast or melee her before she get her one buff casted she can be attacked without her depoping. she coned dark blue to me at lvl 51 and have been told she is very under coned. she seem to pop in alot i have seen casting text from her 3 or 4 time in one night of raiding the zone. if you ask me about it i say it would have to be a blue moon before anyone could kill her. having the group or groups to kill her and having the luck for her to pop in on top of your raid is the only way anyone could take her down. i hope this info help you guys and good luck to anyone going after her;o)
Spawn Pattern
# Jul 29 2002 at 6:41 AM Rating: Decent
She looks like a human female newbie ("naked"). When I saw her, she spawned in the passage that leads from the newbie pond to the graveyard.

I suspect that she can spawn anywhere. In fact, since she spawned right at the spawn point of a pledge initiate (or something similar) the very moment I killed it, I suspect that there is a miniscule chance for her to spawn any time a mob in mistmoore is killed.

I wasn't near enough to draw aggro from her, and as i conned her and started asking people what she was, she blinked out (was there for 2 seconds). I didn't know if she had despawned or hidden, but i walked past her spawn point and nothing happened, so my best guess is the former is the case (she was scowling at me when i conned her -- and dark blue).

Wish I knew more. Good luck with her.
well you know

First and only time I saw her was a few weeks after the Advisor was created. A small group us 50+ were camped in the library area and we kept seeing her cast. Finally right in mid-fight with room spawn and pulls, she pops right in where the Advisor spawned. She laughed exactly like the Maestro and she hit like a SOB. We weren't buffed for a real fight and only managed to get her to 25% or so before our cleric was oom. She resisted about 75% of my stuns (level 57ish at the time). I didn't have tash loaded since we were just fighting ash and trash, so I dont' know if it would have made a great difference. Needless to say, we CR'd and she was nowhere in sight.

Someone must have killed her at least once. Come on people post your stuff. If she's that highly magically resistant that probably means she's got some really really good loot !! A.k.a black reavers in CoM prolly i can think of from top of my head.

Dark Huntress?

Khmm was wondering about this mob. I was camping dhampyre for like 5 nights and giving out essences to some lower levels *waves to syraties* here on drinal. One night while camping my guy, i heard Dark Huntress casts a spell. Wow, I thought I remember seeing this mob, wasn't sure whether she was lvl 50 or not. However, I didn't dare to check her out lol, I can barely gate when a few green mobs pound on me lol but with huntress that would be flat out impossible. :) Can someone please post what does she drop? Gotta be something good or for really ultra rare quest.
Dark Huntress is TUFF!

We were wiped out by this mob about a year ago. She spawned in the music room as far as we could tell. Then she systamatically droped everyone of us. She had MASSES of HP, and was almost totally magic resistant (i didn't land anything druid 40). Luckily she dosnt seem to spawn that much..
