I know they are insanely hard, but could we get some info about raids, or links to info about them? It would be of definite use to the EQ community if someone could post what the "trick" is to them, or if there simply is no trick and "here's how to do it the hard way" or something. The loot from them, I know, is great, but too few can complete them successfully. They're so... fricking... hard.

OUCHIES!!!!!
he bent over our entire group and we didnt enjoy it...
55-60 grouping, would love to have parses and screensots but our pally paci-pulled him, and we died. Real fast. i saw the monk and pally drop from full to half in about 3 seconds, and the next thing i see is my dead body and the dreaded 'loading' message.

I love the new LDON, even on the rare occasions we wipe out!

I'd say about 60% of the mobs are still missing, Including most of the Stewards Bloodguards etc.

...was the target of my first assassination dungeon. Group consisted of 59 druid (me), 61 chanter, 55 war, 55 cleric, 57 necro, 60 mage. Was darkblue to me at 59, didn't think to ask what he conned to anyone of a lower level. Was fairly easy to get down to him in the alotted time. Almost didn't make it though because someone popped a trap that hit all but the mage and necro with Haunting Curse (nasty curse based 150 to all stats debuff...lasts an hour too :( ) two pulls before we got to Stonetalon. We got him with one add that was mezzed and proceeded to give the gargoyle a beat down (looks like the stormwatcher model) killed the war at 30% health and summoned me. He didn't hit very hard, mid 160's or so, not nearly as bad as a PoN tree or raven. Didn't seem to be very FR as I landed for full on all 4 casts. Estimate somewhere around 18-20k hp.

That was our mission : dispatch her quickly ! We were a group of late 50's and she conned red to me (wiz 58). She stands in the back of the circle room with her pet. She's 61 from the looks of it and a druid from the dots our druid (how ironic) could feel.

Most of the trouble was to get to her. Once we did, main tank agroed and never let go (except for our badlucked druid). I launched 25 draughts (721 dmg) but was unable to log other's hits. Pretty easy take down, fight lasted more or less 3 minutes.

Unfortunately we did not manage to get the mission done in the first 90 minutes but we easily cleared the partial bonus timer.

A Steward Coudrel , con Dark Blue for a 54, caster, about 4/5.5 Khp

These mob lists are going to be huge, assuming there is a different set of mobs for every 5 level gap.

For fun I dusted off my 24 enchanter alt, decked him out in a bit of twinkage, and pulled together a group for MMC. We had an assassination mission to kill Syltavian the Cursed (I think that was his name). Anyway, mobs were the exact same models as when I went through with my 56 mage, only they hit much less. All the mobs were dark blue to 24 (22 was lowest in group) and the boss was yellow.

Loot was crap except for a shawl that was +2 to almost every stat, some AC, and ALL/ALL. I lost the random on it, so I don't remember the name.

When I went in with the mage, we managed a +5 AGI all item augment and some funky gloves with +5INT +30 Mana that was RNG/ROG/SHM only, and a recommended level of 50. I still have em and will send the image to Allakhazam. Still wondering what they were thinking on those gloves.

Do the dungeons actually have different named mobs for each level, or do they just spawn the same mobs just with HUGE level differences based on group level? Cause i just thought te mobs levels where determined by the level average set in when you started the adventure

I believe all of the scions and trueborns are under lvl 60.

Last night I was there in a group of all 65s except me, 60 bard. And I am almost sure that every mob we fought conned dark blue to me. I'd say the mobs are lvl 55-59 in the internal sanctuary. The were mostly hitting in the 300s max and there weren't too many casters. (if you don't like fighting casters DON'T go to deepest guk, ugh)

Was there yesterday, our mission was to seek out and destroy a beast named the "oneblooded one" or something.

Group was:

Pally 65 with almost max AA in defensive abilities
Ranger 65
Cleric 65
Wizard 65
Bard 65
Necro 65 - Me, i was slower as we thought all in Catacombs was undead - which it turned out, they where not 8)

For successfull completion its almost impossible to take down all mobs, instead one must only make sure that "boss mob" spawns, which he does after your group killed about 50-60% of the inhibitants.

The bossmob is also quite easy to locate as messages appear when he spawns that also gives you a direction from where the sounds emit from.

As stated, some where not undead, Bossmob was never slowed and summoned Wizard after crit. nuke and slayed him instantly - which made my day brighter as i cast wake the dead on him 8)

Overall, a very good time, nothing noteworthy dropped and chest yielded only a nasty trap.
