Killed Lord,Battlemaster paluk, and moldmaster
# Jun 13 2001 at 12:29 PM Rating: Default
Yesterday i killed moldmaster on my necromancer, he was green to level 39, he casted druid spells and hit pretty hard, i first attempted to kill him using root,dot, and run outa casting range, he had too many hp, i then summoned a pet and rooted doted and killed him, he dropped nothing, several spore things spawned around his corpse and died easily to my pet.

I then went down and killed battlemaster paluk (sp?), my pet and DDs killed him quickly he dropped blackend alloy arms (9 ac) and a blackend alloy longsword (10/29 +3 sv poisen) he spawned in a room with carpet rugs, do not know what it was called

I then grouped with a 34 mage to kill the the Lord, he dropped a crown 8 ac +6 all saves and a BA girdle 7 ac and a alloy basterd sword +3 sv poisen 23/39

Battle Wizard Unak drops the new Blacken Iron Medaillion, AC 6 Wis/INt plus 5.

Pickclaw veteran drops the Blackened Alloy Longsword - 10/29 plus 3 to sv poison.

Both are randomized spawn points now, and can spawn once and hour anywhere there was a goblin, also only one or the other of the named seem to be up at once, so you can either get the Veteran, the BattleWizard or the Lord, altho not positive about the Vet, never saw two up at same time in a 3 hours period.

Had Lord Pickclaw, the Battlewizard and the Battlelord all up at the same time...also, I don't believe the Veteran is a named MOB -- swear I had a few of them in ajoining rooms last night, but I could be wrong.
RE: New Mobs
# Jun 30 2001 at 11:57 AM Rating: Decent
Actually the BA Medallion is dropped by multiple creatures and so are both the 1 hander and the 2 hander swords. All you gotta do is kill one holding a sword and it will be one of the two. And pretty much all pickclaw gobs will drop BA Armor at any point.
Veteran

There is also a Pickclaw Veteran that spawns on the 4th floor. Around lvl 26-28. Hits a bit harder than the other Pickclaws. Hasn't dropped anything yet.
BattleWizard Unak
# Jun 12 2001 at 2:30 PM Rating: Default
Found another unmentioned spawn, BattleWizard Unak, he spawned near the river on the way to the Bank, but is probably a random spawn like the rest. He conned yellow to my lv 28 Monk. Didn't have the opportunity to find out what he drops.

Which mobs drop BA? Do some drop it more frequently than others?

Also, supposedly the Sporali Defenders and the Moldmaster drop the Sporali Defender Blade worth 1kpp! these things can be soloed by a 23 and a small group of 17-20 can take them down! Get hunting before the price drops!
(Sword is 1hs dam 17 del 39 SK and Pally only,no other stats)

hehe, i have an untwinked 25 paly/w bronze, in a group with a 24 cleric and a 22 barb warrior, both untwinked and we were able to take stuff around the first ramp down, and was GOOD exp,
Soo, i would say the mobs are tougher, but the exp has improved nicely
Moldmaster
# Jun 10 2001 at 6:28 PM Rating: Default
There is also a Sporali Moldmaster that coned blue to me at lv 28, but hits hard, it is a caster.
RE: Moldmaster
# Jun 17 2001 at 7:39 PM Rating: Default
that's putting it lightly, i took on the moldmaster with my 38 paladin with full mana and health and couldnt put a dent into its hit points, i was hit for up to 80 in melee and after i used lay on hands i had to run with him at full health and me at 1 bubble of life(1300hp when buffed), its regen is extremely high and has a damage shield. oh yeah and for the spells it was alot of stinging swarm and burst of flame type spells.
A Slime Mold
# Jun 08 2001 at 6:47 PM Rating: Default
While medding in one of the rooms, I happened to forage, not wanting what I had foraged I went to drop it. When I went to drop it I clicked on A Slime Mold. And then traded my foraged berries with it.. Con'd Red, indifferent. No response to hails. I thought it was interesting, so I stayed a bit longer, till forage button poped up again and foraged another food, went to different section on the room and droped it.. No clicking on A Slime Mold that time. I ran around doing this, over and over.. I found that A Slime Mold is only in one spot. Between 2 chairs. And it isnt on track. Just a little info, thought it was interesting.

I've heard that walking over or touching the Slime Mold will release a couple of Sporelings. Once the sporelings are released the mold will take some time to recharge, before releasing another cloud of sporelings when someone comes near.
Quite irritating little buggers they are.
Mimin
# Jun 08 2001 at 5:02 PM Rating: Decent
Does the Mimic ever drop anything? The mimic initially looks exactly like one of the chests behind the banker. It is not aggressive, as far as I know (gtm), but once you attack it fights back by leaping into the air baring its teeth hidden inside the chest. Once it dies, a message says that coins spill out onto the floor but I could not find anything, including its corpse!

A lot of the Sporali and Pickclaws mentioned above I think are higher than they are posted as. At lvl 28 most of them con high green to blue. The Spellslayer especially hits hard and took me to below half health in a matter of seconds.
Snakes?
# Jun 07 2001 at 10:56 AM Rating: Default
On the 4th Floor there are snake looking mobs, "Ooze" something or other, swimming in the river towards the hidden underwater cavern. It is not the Sludge Guppy. They con blue to my lv 28 Monk. Have yet to jump in and kill one because there are always mutiple ones swimming around.

I've seen it drop off Gob Destroyers, Foeslicers, Foeseekers. Good chance of a BA armor drop off anything on the 4th level, except the janitor (heheh).
#Anonymous, Posted: Jun 04 2001 at 4:18 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) actually... there isn't a level 60 enc haste. If you are going to flame somebody, don't make a dumbass out of yourself while doing it. =)
RE: LOL
# Jun 05 2001 at 4:44 PM Rating: Default
I think you need to check your own information instead of flaming others. There is a lvl 60 enchanter haste spell:

Name: Visions of Grandeur
Level: 60
Mana: 275
Class: Alteration
Vendor(s): Level 50+ Spell Drop

Approx Spell Cost: Unknown
Researchable: No
Type: Single Target Buff
Max Duration: 42 minutes
Casting Time: 6 seconds
Recast Time: 15 seconds
Actual Effects: Target: Increase Attack Speed (58%)
Target: Increase Agility (40)
Target: Increase Dexterity (25)
Target: Increase ATK (15)
Description: This is a melee uber buff spell.
This is one of only a small number of enchanter spells which increase dexterity, making it great for Procs.

This spell will not stack with some of the other classes ATK buffs.

Tracker's Dream Dungeon
# Jun 04 2001 at 2:24 PM Rating: Good
With the new random spawn point system in place for all of the good/interesting spawns here, RunnyEye is now a tracker's dream come true. You NEED a group member with tracking to reliably hunt down the Lord, Battlemaster, Battlewizard and others, since they can pop pretty much anywhere on their floor.
The first night the changes were implemented my group had a blast as I repeatedly led them from Lord to Lord, battlemaster to battlemaster while others sat around claiming "Lord is camped." While they sat waiting, we were killing him several rooms away.
Rangers and druids, hire yourselves out here! For once, having these classes in a dungeon is almost a MUST.
RE: Tracker's Dream Dungeon
# Jun 08 2001 at 3:05 PM Rating: Default
Since the spawn points are now random for these named mobs, does that mean there can be multiple spawns too? For example, go to Warsliks Woods and you can sometimes see 2 or 3 Grachnists up. Just curious.

I have never personally seen this, but I certainly wouldn't rule it out. For the exact example you mentioned ;-)

Another point - I would GUESS that the named MoBs eventually despawn if not killed. Once, a friend and I tracked the Lord to the locked room. At least, the door is either locked or bugged as we could not open it. If he never despawned, it would be a LONG time before someone got in there. You'd probably have needed a Rogue paired with a Ranger...

My impression
# Jun 03 2001 at 5:48 PM Rating: Default
Went there twice yesterday. Once on my own, once in a group of 3. This is a bad place for casters: difficult to med. Everything (including greens) would aggro on medding or sitting player. Even mobs that are so green that their hits don't even connect in melee. Reminded me of the pumas, pests! But if you can get into the bar at level 4, its pretty safe there.

The goblin neophyte will run its route and cast fire shield on every mob it sees so even the little ones will damage you a bit when you melee.

Ran into Lord Pickclaw while I was in the group, blood red. Resisted everything except my Cancel Magic. Double hit in the 80s. The group didn't even make a dent in his HP. Needless to say, we ran.

All I can say is, this place is way under con. Everything should con at least a tier higher. So be careful and don't get big headed.

I agree. The Goblin Neophyte needs to be whacked every time he is spotted, just as a public service. And yes, Lord Pickclaw is just as tough as a mid-high giant.

My question is, why were you casting cancel magic on him? Did he have a damageshield up?

I have personally looted the chest piece of Dark Muslin off of a Zekspeaker, in the bank area. That's the only piece I have ever seen. Much rarer than BA, IMHO.

The Sporali Moldmaster
# Jun 03 2001 at 9:22 AM Rating: Decent
Well, Moldy spawns in his room EXACTLY every 2 hours, if it's him, cause there's a PH now. Weird thing is, he spawned somewhere else, near the ramp downstairs, 10 minutes before he was due in his spot. So either there is still trouble in RE, or he may not be guaranteed to be in his room. And a 33 monk cant solo him. His regen is pretty discouraging, and his dmg shield doesnt help much either.

Careful running from some of these mobs. My wife was backstabbed for 156! Ouch.

The Lord can spawn in at least 9 different locations. Currently, if you have no tracker it will be difficult to get to him first.
Gee thanks!

Mm....right...someone care to explain how this is supposed to be a mid-level(17-21) zone? These new mob's have 2 truckloads of HP, hit for 2X the damage you're doing to them, and I could barely take down a blue after being buffed with 1500 hp, dmg sheild, and a druid standing behind me casting heal, and still ended up having to zone to keep the runt that agro'd from finishing me off with it's 30+ dmg attacks. I'm game for a challange but come on by the time I'm able to take that kind of a beating I won't be getting exp from the zone anymore what's the point of going there then except to come back around 40 or so to rape it for lewt which is all that's been going on now since they patched it. If indeed this was meant to be a zone for the mid-level's in mind, they need to tone the mobs down a bit so that mid-level's can handle them without having to be supertwinked or buffed to take them out. Until they do it's just a place higher lvls are going to camp. (no offense higher levels)... I hope they don't "revamp" the karana's or we'll all be stuck at 20 forever.

Dude, mid lvl in this game is 20-30s.... I dunno what game you play, but the one I play when this continent had lvl cap at 50... now its 60.... making mid lvls 20s-40....

teens are NOT mid lvl. 17-21 is by no means a mid lvl character.

It is still a mid-level zone, but a mid-level zone for a well balanced group. Try it sometime... :-)
RE: Gee thanks!
# Jun 20 2001 at 9:02 AM Rating: Default
aye, mid level. im 39, i get no exp from this place cept for the Lord. but im there getting stuff for the guild, and twinking other chars, some decent stuff in there. i think a full well balanced group of 25's should do well in this place. only thing you got to watch out for is you cant have sow, which means you can't run away, cuz these guys have backstabbed me for near 150, they hit hard, have a good amount of hp's, but these guys got nothing compared to what i have fought. i agree that tracking is neccessary if you want to get any good items out of it.

Verant accidentally removed the HQ ore, but it should be back the next time they bring the servers down.

Looted a small block of HQ ore yesterday off Goblin Crusader. Also droped bronze mace and BIBS. Spawned near water on second floor by fireplace next to the bridge.

Hope it helps . . .

Regen and Con
# Jun 02 2001 at 12:14 AM Rating: Default
I went into Runnyeye before and after the change, before the change the greens were easy to kill and didn't put up much of a fight. After the change the greens are much more tougher and this regen rate is a killer. I am a lvl 14 cleric, my melee skills are in the mid 40s for 1 and 2 hand blunt. If i am luck enough to hit for 15 points of damage it is healed up before i get my next hit. I have tried the Root and Smite combination and if i am luck i can get it to 25%. If I get it that low i then run out of mana and have to zone. In my opinion, it seems that they are one level higher then what they con.
