You can do him without DT's and make the encounter trivial with paladins who have Divine Stun aa.

You can kill him without any DT's going off if you have enough paladins for a divine stun (aa skill) chain.

Your Magelo says you have not even passed SoRo, yet your charm says its Time enabled. Your adventurs stone says its max LDoN yet you are not on the leaderboards... try making an honest Magelo next time and I'll believe your guild killed Shei in under 2 minutes.

Hahahahahaha. Good job Moritam, I love you. :P

It's just one of these retarded guild plugs you see so much. You know, the guilds full of power gaming retards who ruin a lot of the fun for so many others need to come onto Allakhazam and boast about what they did...

"LOL OUR GUILD "KEEPERS OF DEATH AND DESTRUCTION ROFL ZERG WITH 20 CLERICS AND 25 WARRIORS ONLINE AT ONCE" KILLED Y MONSTER IN 5 SECONDS WITH NO DEATHS AND HE DROPPED Z ITEM AND WE ARE THE BEST LOL YOU SHOULD WORSHIP US WE'RE ON Q SERVER DID I MENTION RECRUITMENT IS OPEN?"

I'm tired of everyone posting their inane accomplishments on the bestiary forums. It's as if they believe SOMEONE cares. Hey "Froggerx" or whatever you said your name was... NOBODY CARES. I don't care, Moritam doesn't care... nobody cares. If we wanted to read all about what your worthless guild did we'd go to the poorly designed guild webpage.

It's pretty easy to tell that nobody wants to read what the hell your crappy guild did. So, I'd like to know... why do so many fools like you keep making those posts?

Shei is a he, most if not all of the four arms, are male, but the robed things that run through Maiden's eye are female, there is a way you can tell the male shades from the female. The Male ones, have a crown, red flowing eyes, and and a skull belt, the female ones, are plain black robes, that sort of, just drift about. And now I have completed my complete useless piece of information, I take my bow /bow.
Tactics

Kill all trash.
Kill fake Shei.
Get casters on the stairs behind the carpet
Send in ritual <insert druid, ranger> sacrifice for deathtouch.
Warrior with enraging blow burns offensive disc on Shei to hold aggro, then switches to defensive.
Huge DPS from the steps. Lifeburn from the get go if you have necros with it. Flat out nukes from everyone except the clerics. Wake the dead, send your pets, burn your mana.
There is no second DT if you are fast enough :o)

I am curious - I am not sure if this would work, but...

What about a bard using Kazumi's Note of Preservation (Group DA)? Or any member of a bard's group? Would that do anything?

I am a 59 Cleric on The Nameless.Went on a Raid against this thing(first time). Well we went with 40+ people average level was 63. We killed the Merchant Shei with no prob. When we started on Shei he Death Touched main tank causing add to pop. Well the raid wasn't organized so at this point people where assisting the wrong people...FYI the adds will summon you. All the casters where on the Stairs behind Shei and we started to get summoned. Shei is a monster if raid isn't organized and planned.Mana taps you,summons,DTs,and pops add when someone dies.This all equals to a fun experience or a summon your corpse experience..we did the summon one.

Ok, I've heard that he DTs anywhere from 45 seconds to 2 minutes. I haven't seen a single post yet that agrees with any other one. Anyone know REALLY how often he DTs?

Shei Changed?
# Jan 12 2004 at 10:28 PM Rating: Decent
We tried Shei tonight with standard tactics. Pulled all trash out of the room. Aggroed Shei and the 4 named popped. We bring out the 4 named and tank each to 15 percent. We then bring the merchant Shei out and kill. Real Shei pops down below so we kill the 4 named. We send someone in to take the DT and all 4 named pop again. The 4 named had been dead about 45 seconds. So we pull out the 4 named again and kill them. Guess what: the named pop again almost instantly. This is either bugged or has been changed on purpose. Have done Shei many times and never seen this behaviour. Anyone else try Shei recently and seen this behaviour?

You gotta keep them mezzed or charmed or tank CC'ed the entire fight (different for each mob I think).
spawn time
# Oct 31 2003 at 1:02 PM Rating: Decent
7 day spawn is not up after server reset !
2 ways to kill ... it !
1: mass dps on shei and off tank adds (dangerous cause u need healers for the off tanks and if u dont kill shei fast enough u gonna have to many adds)
2: kill adds a fast as possible then every1 back on shei till next DT / adds. (safer imo but takes a while and u need the dps to kill adds before next adds spawn)
i know there are holes in this and that is intentional ... learn by trying !!!
Numbers?

Both versions are fully magic slowable (unmitigated).

Touch of Vinitras is the DT he uses, not that it makes much difference. Other than its 2mins recast rather then random of above.

I think the male/female returns on the %s and %o are sometimes goofy. The other 4-armers also seem to report as male, but they've got breasts and just look female. . . I tend to think it's not much more than a typo. Or these things are more kinky than I care to know. ;-)

Charm the adds?
# Mar 19 2003 at 2:42 PM Rating: Default
Ok he spawns a lvl 60 mob everytime he DTs someone or everytime someone dies period?

And the mob he spawns, can it be charmed via the new Command of Druzzil spell that enchanters get. Cause that would be a nice way to get higher DPS, every time one tank dies....swtich tanks and get another DPS pet.

A mob spawns anytime anything at all dies in that room during the event. That includes players, mobs, even pets (charmed or summoned). AFAIK, the robes that spawn are extremely MR, and, if not completely non-charmable, charms would be highly resisted. Basically, pets during this fight are a serious no-no. Get some pallies or SKs on the adds, with orders not to kill the robes until Shei is dead. Have everyone else on Shei. Sac someone for the initial DT, get your MT in, and kill him fast. Have at least one second tank ready to go. 2-3 extra tanks ready to MT is a good idea.

A new level 60 mob spawns ONLY when a Player Controlled entity dies (PC, pet, or charmed NPC). We typically clear the 4 adds that spawn with Shei before engaging it. Though we kill them up on the platform, it's been debated that killing NPCs on the carpet that Shei is on WILL result in an add, though we've never tested that. Once the first 4 are dead, we just off-tank the other 2 or three that spawn due to Death Touch.

Hmm I read that Shei's DT is "resetable" by our stuns (most likely our PoP lvl 62 or lvl 64 stun, even more so our AA Divine Stun).
Someone said just stun every 20 seconds to reset the DT timer.
Of course the stunners would get aggro, so perhaps a lvl 65 PoP AA'd paladin can be tank?

Shei's not that hard but you need a strat
# Nov 07 2002 at 5:32 AM Rating: Default
I'm not gonna post exactly how to kill Shei, because very few guilds on my server can kill him and I'd like to keep it that way. However I will give you some info about the fight.

~Shei initially cons dubious to all. When you aggro him he will come after you along with 4 or so robes that are kos.
~When you kill Shei a kos version of Shei will spawn in the middle of his room. He is rooted. He hits in the 700's. He can be slowed. He has a lot of hps. He death touches every 2 mins. Whenever someone dies a level 60 add will spawn.
~There's a mana drain trap in Shei's room.

As for the strat to beat Shei. It takes a while to figure it out, but once you figure it out he's a punk, and no I don't mean any sort of sploits. I will tell you this- figure out a way to split merchant Shei from his robed friends. It's possible. Also there is a way to avoid the mana drain trap if you patient and try some different things...
