A dry area located in the northeastern area of Kunark, the Field of Bone gets its name from the former reservoir of Cabilis which is now home to bones and wandering undead, remnants of a battle in years past.

The area, while bone dry itself, is surrounded by plantlife and wetlands. The Swamp of No Hope lies to the south while thick forestry sits to the east and to the west. The cliff on the north end leads to the Kunark coastline of Timorous Deep.

Long before the elves discovered Kunark, a great war took place between the iksars and Ring of Scale.The final battle in this war occurred in the sky above what is now the Field of Bone: Jaled'Dar, leader of the Ring of Scale, and Emperor Ganak of the Iksars fought with one another until they were both destroyed. To this day, Jaled'Dar's bones remain in the barren field.

Saw one of these guys near dragon bones in the pit and killed him, dropped iksar dakoit head. NOT NO DROP, and NOT LORE. Conned blue to lvl 20, pretty hard fight, so i guess around lvl 19.

He did not drop a Dakoit Coin Purse? I've been hunting that for awhile. Any more info on what you were hunting at the time?

What direction was he walking (from/to) I've been hunting this guy for awhile.

Any help would be appreciated,

Friend and i saw him in the middle of the pit, to left of dragon skull. We were pulling to left of 2nd ramp, and my warior pulled him back. not sure con... we killed him pretty easily. Unfortunately, he fell under world just before he died and my DoT's finished him off, so never got to loot him ::grumble::

A lot of players give priority to pulling the spiders due to their silk. They are out there- in the pit, and near Kaesara- just kill other monsters until they spawn. I have seen them drop anywhere from 0 to 4 silks.

Regarding spiders, from what i know when i have hunted for silk, they seems to only spawn in day time.
In nightime they all seems to vanish.

Im a 34 druid and I couldnt kill him while kiting. He conned blue to me - quite formidable.
I ran into him in the marauder cave on the beach while I was messing around. He almost killed me before I could snare him. I went back later fully buffed and ready to take him out. I only got him down to 1/3 of his health before I had to zone into Kurns..screaming at the top of my lungs for everyone to stay away from the tower for a while. It seems he will kill anyone on sight. Including Iksar. If I had someone in my group we couldve taken him easily.
RE: new mob?
# Nov 22 2000 at 3:01 PM Rating: Default
Yes, this mob is one of the Iksar Warrior quest armor mobs. He drops a head, which when taken to the Archduke with 2 star rubies (~80pp each), will result in a scroll or page (actual name starts with an "R" but memory fails me now). Take that and a pair of banded gauntlets to one of the quest givers in OT (it DOES matter which one) and you'll receive Trooper Scale Gauntlets. Stats are: Lore, AC = 11, +5 str, +2 Dex, Wt. = 2.5 stones, WAR/IKS restr. Looks like Cabilis scale armor, but shaded a bit darker. Also drops an FS speapr pretty much all the time. He's a big baddie.

His PH is the rightmost iksar (sometimes is sitting) as you enter the first room on the right hand side.

Beware newbie lizzards of the marauder caves. This bad boy will kill you hard, if you are of a level to get xp from the manslayers. He also spawns fairly frequently. Perhaps one spawn in 4-5. Which is around an hour if you keep up with the spawns.

Kerosh Blackhand, i fought him this morning. He ios an Iksar located in the Iksar Outcast cave on the beach in FoB. He spawned in the first room on the opposite side of the throne. Very large aggro radius.Took me 2 tries, second time there was a 31 iksar Nec in the zone and i enlisted his aid. I could get him down to 1/4 life before i died as a 29 druid. Blackhand was red to me and Yellow to the Nec. So he is at least lvl 32. Hit me for a max of 78, and Backstabbed me for a max of 111. And he hits very often. I dont know if he can summon, but 3 times, he was snared and about 50 yards away, and when i would stop to nuke, he would appear right on top of me and beat the crap outta me.... could be warping, but the distances were so extreme and he was snared and i should have had at least 10 seconds to cast fore he got near. Very nasty. He dropped some interesting things... the Head of Blackhand: (Iksar Head graphic) Lore No Drop. A 1hs that looks like a half moon blade and you grip it in the middle. Like that one alien on Star Trek Carried. Cant remember the name, will post it later today with stats, it is also Magic Lore no drop, melee class. And a FS Spear, and about 3pp in change. The blade has a cool grapic, but i didnt even look at stats cus i was late for class killing it.

The head is used for an uber armor quest supposedly, but I forget for which class. Maybe shaman.

This guy kicked the asses of a group of low to mid 20's until a 40th or so necro went in, and the NPC conned blue to even him. It's a nasty and somewhat unfair surprise for people looking for XP by killing the bandits in the cave, whch are challenging enough on their own.

There is a newbie zone just outside the city with scaled wolf pups, emerald scarabs, decaying skeletons, scorpions and other easy enemies a lvl 1 should be able to handle. There is one guard that walks in the newbie area sometimes, and if there´s trouble you either run to him or run back to the city guards, it´s not a long run back. When you´re level 7 you could go to the pit which has more difficult enemies, then after you raise some levels you could go to the eastern part of the pit which has even more difficult enemies, after that stops giving you nice xp, it´s time to go in Kurn´s.

A lesser spirit spawned when I killed an Iksar Manslayer. It was not aggressive, conned dubiously. I hailed it, but got the standard dubious message ("Did something die or is that your breath?") I killed it, but it dropped nothing... I am guessing that it is for a quest of some sort, but whatever it is, I don't have the faction for it.

Yes they spawn over in the FOB, i know where they spawn and in my earlier lvls would camp them since they drop bronze weapons sometimes. Also, generally 1-2 bandits spawn, can be just about any class from monk to wizzie. But sometimes a brigand will spawn, they can be a bit of trouble, but not too bad if u are around lvl 15.
RE: A Bandit
# Oct 16 2000 at 5:49 PM Rating: Default
Ran into first a single human male bandit who conned green (I was a lev 16 Iksar monk). Dispatched with great ease but still gave exp, dropped a loaf of bread (normal food). Came back later and two new human male bandits were there. Both were green, but hit much harder. Made it out with 1.5 bub of life. They dropped two no-drop red sashes (no stats), and a bronze dagger. Gave faction for Qeunos, Residents of Karana and a couple others. What are the sashes for?
FOB Pinkie Bandits
# Oct 16 2000 at 12:44 PM Rating: Default
There are standard pinkie (human/elf) bandits in FOB that con blue/green at about 17/19 level, and I still get exp at 19th (and they're still a hard fight, though I solo all of them at once). I suspect that Verant put these here for REALLY bored Iskar to raise their factions in the West, but it could have just been sloppy mob placement (but then they didn't mess up any other Kunark mobs, did they?) ;-P
Anywhoo, if you're looking for them, you'll find them standing in the small pass from the barrow-fields above the cliffs to the "valley" that leads to Warslik's Woods. <i.e. follow the cliffs west until the "corner" then follow the mountian wall south till you see them, or coming from WW, basically go straight then look for the pass on your left-hand side as you travel out of the valley>
Should be 2-3 of them there unless I've trained them around the zone. Enjoy!
RE: A Bandit
# Oct 01 2000 at 5:24 AM Rating: Default
Yes, I encountered her a couple of times. Then I started encountering two male bandits who work together -- blue to me at 12. I slayed them a couple of times.

Then a couple of days ago I encountered two male bandits who were blue to me at 14. I figured these were the same two guys as before, and took them on. WRONG! These guys, theoretically blue to me at 14, immediately cast a TON of spells and I was dead within, quite literally, 10 seconds, with no hope of doing anything. Fire, electricity, all kinds of stuff. DEFINITELY not blue to a 14.

I haven't messed with bandits there since. :)

i know for a fact that the iksar shaman spawns by the kurns tower as he was running towards the tower from the beach twice. I have killed him 3 or 4 times so i guess that was the rare that was spawning on saryrn tho all i want is a cloak (not in right place at all i spose).

Actually, it was simply that the incorrect spell effect was put in place of the intended poison spell. Instead of poisoning you, it summoned you a high level mage pet. Was pretty funny, at least for a while...I saw a level 9 shadowknight wiping out the higher level region of the Pit with a level ~39 (according to others of higher level who conned it) mage pet.
