Karnor's Castle, home to the evil Iksar vampire Venril Sathir and his countless minions, sits modestly in the middle of the Dreadlands. Its heavy mob population and single exit can make for some pretty impressive trains, so keep a lookout while resting near the zone-out.

Well, time has passed, time for a few more fixes. Only a few omissions, because, well, I've never actually seen the damned Cursed Hand drop anything except stupid iksar hat. Also, I've spent a lot of time in the basement, so there are fewer errors and a new mob there. And added the pathing and spawn info on the rares =)

Karnor's Castle

Rare Item Mobs
Skeletal Scryer
Common: Jasarth Scale Gauntlets
Uncommon: Deepwater Gauntlets, Jasarth Trident
Rare: Locustlure
Spawn: He spawns in the basement, and then leaves it and heads into the moat, through the water tunnel on the right side. He will often go near the right moat, so they usually can claim him in that spawn spot. He also can spawn in the 2 spawns outside the second castle, or in the right courtyard.

Drolvarg Captain
Common: Drolvarg Mantle
Uncommon: Cobalt Gauntlets, Jade Mace
Rare: Lupine Dagger
Spawn: He spawns in the first castle, upstairs. Any of the drolvargs up there can be his placeholder. An interesting thing of note is that his damage per hit is affected by which item he carries. Its typically 142 or 147, I forget which ATM, when he's got the Drolvarg Mantle. If he doesn't hit for that at all during the fight, or hits for higher, he has something else. All his drops are very valuable, excluding the mantle.

Sentry of Sathir
Common: Jasarth Scale Helm
Uncommon: Jaundiced Bone Gauntlets, Bone Amulet of Blade Turning
Rare: Swarmcaller
Spawn: Can spawn anywhere Sentries of Sathir spawn. Typically spawns in the left courtyard and the well room just behind it. Never in the right courtyard or before the second castle however.

Caller of Sathir
Common: Kunzar Cloak
Uncommon: Cobalt Boots, Nature's Wrath
Rare: Sionachie's Partisan
Spawn: About the same as Sentry of Sathir. Spawns anywhere Callers of Sathir can spawn, and mostly they have the spawn spot same as Sentries. They seem more common in the well than sentries however.

Skeletal Warlord
Common: Jasarth Scale Bracer
Uncommon: Deepwater Boots, Dwarven Sap
Rare: Tranquil Staff
Spawn: Can spawn anywhere in the castle, then roam, but usually he doesn't. He most often spawns in the jail outside Drolvarg warlord... Not to be confused with jail in basement.

Skeletal Captain
Common: Sarnak Hide Mask
Uncommon: Tolan's Darkwood Gauntlets
Spawn: This guy is very rare. He spawns on the parapets, but since there are only 2 spawns up there.... well, that makes his appearance rare. And most of the time nobody kills those two spawns.

Skeletal Berserker
Common: Jasarth Scale Chestplate
Uncommon: Jaundiced Bone Boots
Rare: Deathbringers Rod
Spawn: Usually in one of the four spawns on either side of the well room, one in the left CY by the stairs and the other in the alcove in well.

Hangnail
Always: Elder Spiritist Gauntlets
Spawn: In the Cursed Hand Room. Nowhere else.

Knight of Sathir
Common: Wand of Souls
Uncommon: Ogguk Cleaver
Spawn: Usually is phed by the spectral knight knight that roams in orb room *also called Arena*, but he also spawns in the 3 rooms on the first level, excluding Venrils, and most frequently in the room on the second level *tier*.

Construct of Sathir
Common: Helm of Rile
Uncommon: Blood Ember Gauntlets???, Fang Amulet of Calling
Rare: Polished Obsidian Great Axe???
Spawn: Usually in Hand room, but he can also occasionally spawn in the left CY. Any hand is his ph, one can sometimes spawn by the door in the left CY.

Drolvarg Warlord
Common: Supple Scale Armband
Uncommon: Donal's Boots of Mourning
Rare: Noctivagent Blade
Spawn: In the Warlord room, just down the stairs from the jail. Jail is down the hall from hand room.

Drolvarg Pawduster
Always: Metal Pipes (For Robe of the Whistling Fist quest)
Spawn: In the hand room, he can either spawn in place of a bodyguard, or in the place of the Warlord. I am unsure which. Probably either.

Undead Jailer
Common: Jasarth Scale Leggings
Uncommon: Mrylokar's Boots
Rare: Baton of Faith
Spawn: He can spawn anywhere in the basement jail, or in the regular jail outside Warlord. Be warned, the basement jail is huge.

Undead Caretaker
Common: Jasarth Scale Sleeves
Uncommon: ??
Rare: ??
Spawn: This mob is easily the rarest mob in Karnors, more so than Venril Sathir in fact. He spawns inside the Verix Kylox's remains room, and just before that room, is 4 decayed. Then in verix room, there is verix ph, this guys ph, and 3 more decayed. Breaking this room usually is done with a full party of 60s after Verix's VP key part.

Spectral Turnkey
Common: Jasarth Scale Boots
Uncommon: Mrylokars Gauntlets, Book of the Obulus
Rare: ??
Spawn: He can spawn just about anywhere in the basement jail. Really, the uncommons off him is really common, just a bit less so than JS Boots.

Common Mobs - Drops

Drolvarg Sentry - Elder Spiritist Vambraces
Drolvarg Guardian - Singing Steel Boots

Spectral Caller - Howling Harpoon
Spectral Curate - Springwood Club
Spectral Knight - Sword Breaker
Spectral Protector - Blackjack

Cursed Hand - Donal's Gauntlets of Mourning

Skeletal Guardian - Singing Steel Gauntlets

Venril Sathir - Big Boss
Drops all legs, a variety of useless 2hb caster staffs, a Gnarled Wooden Staff for the wizard epic.

Venril Sathir's remains - Ranger/Druid epic thing
He spawns about 12 hours after Venril Sathir dies. Ranger or druid uses the level 9 *RNG* / level 1 *DRU* spell to summon a lightstone like thing, and give it to the remains. He respawns immediately, aggro, and you kill him to get the stones. I believe its 2 per kill.

it is a great post. i notice that venril sathir is not mentioned. i have heard conflicting reports on him concerning his level, how difficult he is to kill, his loot, etc. he is a requirement for the ranger/druid epic, and i find very little information about him. do you have any?
A post worth reading for once!!

Drolvarg Pawduster?
# Sep 01 2000 at 4:27 PM Rating: Default
Where does this mob spawn? Or whatever mob that drops the metal pipe for the monk robe quest?
RE: Drolvarg Pawduster?
# Mar 06 2001 at 9:58 AM Rating: Default
#1.. it is the a Drolvarg Pawbuster, with a 'B'. It spawns in the Warlord room, a 4-spawn room below the Jail. The normal spawns are Drolvarg Bodyguards, uncommon is Drolvarg Warlord and very rarely the Pawbuster. The Pawbuster is easier than either of the more common spawns. If your group can take them down, he will not present a problem.

Doesn't seem to be noted yet, so here it is:
The Locustlure, an 8 / 17 magic dagger with effect: ...some kind of insect spell (Tagar's insects?) is a completely random drop off of every mob in Karnors Kastle. Kill something at the entrance and you'll have the same chance of getting it if you were killing Venril Sathir.

urmm not exactly...the locustlure is a very rare drop off the skeletal scryer and NOT a random drop off of any mob in Karnor's, its proc is the level 14 shaman spell: Walking sleep.
JarJar armor
# Aug 22 2000 at 2:39 PM Rating: Default
Yes, Jasarth is easy to get, my lvl 14 Shaman has a full set. just get to the zone and bind outside, then zone in and just /ooc who is camping jailor or the mobs that drop jasarth and ask to loot it. its no drop, so others dont usually care.

kinda the same way that rogues/bards get there Mask of Deception right at 17. ;P

Sickening
# Aug 08 2000 at 1:17 AM Rating: Decent
Sickening. Very sickening. Today I saw a level 12 Iksar Shaman in Jarscath Scale armor...he explained how he got it. Oh I just ran! Wtf? Can someoen confirm if this is true...I don't see how a level 12 can survive here. I haven't even got one piece of that stuff and it hurts me to see someone 30 levels below me with it. :(
RE: Sickening
# Jan 10 2001 at 5:37 AM Rating: Default
Almost every single rare mob there drops a piece of jarsath scale, it is quite common and if you hunt there for a couple days you can get a set easy. As for low levels surviving there, I usually see some lvl 20's sitting at zone waiting and sometimes auctioning they are looking for legs or gloves or something. It's not hard to survive just watch for trains :)
RE: Sickening
# Nov 01 2000 at 4:05 PM Rating: Default
ITs not all that rare, when people are hunting there it is not considered good so they let it rot.
Just like in Sol b there are always low level warriors waitin for the warrior only weapons that drop there that nobody wants.

Just Some Info
# Jul 22 2000 at 10:51 PM Rating: Decent
I spent about a week here, gained two lvls, and would just like to share some stuff i know. The zone it outdoor allowing SoW/Harmony,etc to be cast here. There are two main buildings. At the beginning there is a Drawbridge leading to the first castle. To the right or left you can follow the zone wall along the narrow strips of ground to either corner which are known as the "left moat" or "right moat". These are common places where groups camp and pull mobs. The first castle is the Drolvarg Outpost, it's like Venril's first line of defense. Inside there is a large room on the main floor. On the left wall there is a small nook where groups frequently pulls mobs. On the right is a staircase the leads to the second floor ( also top floor ). This is the Drolvarg Captain area. Drolvarg Sentry's and Drolvarg Guardians spawn around here. The first room you come into from the staircase is the most common pull spot. On either side of this floor are balconies. One has 4 spawns ( the balcony facing the zone ) and other balcony has 2 ( the one facing the main castle ). This area is a circle of rooms with one bridge connecting both sides. From the main floor if you go strait across from the first drawbridge you will come across a second drawbridge. This bridge leads to Venril Sathir's Keep ( the main castle ). Since I am not a pulling class I don't know much about it but the entrance of Venril's Keep forks left and right leading to the Left Courtyard ( Northern Courtyard ) and Right Courtyard ( Southern Courtyard ). These are possible areas to camp and pull but many ppl pull mobs from inside Venril's Keep and will most likely drop large trains on your group. Although much risk is involved in entering Venril's Keep the rewards are much greater for many special mobs spawn in here and drop great loot. Good Hunting!
