Hi all, great walk-through, but thought i would update a couple of things. This fight was solo'd, with just auto-attack, at level 76, mgb buffed from pok, with full elegant defiant gear, no healer merc needed. he only got in 4 hits, and i resisted his spells. Also, he spawned at 8pm game time, by me targeting myself, running around the black obelisk thing at +3300, +2800, in the northwest corner of the zone, saying "I wish to prove myself to the order"-the stars were out, so it doesn't necessarily have to be daytime, as has been mentioned by others. Also, the item that both he and the disciple of the sun is considered a tradeskill item, and will go into your extraplanar tradeskill satchels if you have them-i say this to help others avoid the panic i had when i couldn't find them in my regular bags, lol. Hope this helps someone else who may be considering doing this quest-i myself wasn't sure if i would need a group or not, and so far, up to this point in the 1.5, i have not-most of it hasnt even required a healer merc. With autogrant aa's, and defiant gear, for better or worse, most of these mobs for the epic barely last long enough for a heal to be needed.

I found the Best thing to do was to make a Social with the trigger phrase in it. For those that may not know how, it is /say I wish to prove myself to the order. I only had to click it a few time running aroung in a cirlce at the Loc +3300,+2800.
concur. make a button and run in a circle around the spire thing there and just click it until the dragon pops. i had myself on target as well, like another post said.
I too was having problems spawning this guy, however the strategy of targeting yourself and running all over the place around the totem works perfectly. It was 5pm game time when I spawned him and he appears on top of you then throws a few hits.
Best bet is to make a hotkey and just click it like mad as you run around.
Taken down by a 70 monk Slitherspike and 70 druid Meddow on the Xegony server. Disciple of moon does have allot of HP. But was a pretty clean fight! The Druid Meddow had to heal me 4-5 times but other than that used two HOT potions and mend twice. Slitherspike was full buffed with Temerity and some shaman buffs. Roughly 11K HP on the monk.
Well, my guildies helped me with this step of 1.5. However when we got to the spire in NW corner, I got the emote and started spamming the message. Nothing happened. It was 10pm game time so I know he was supposed to spawn. Ran around in circles for 5 minutes spamming, still nothing. Finally, decided to target myself since I got the emote and hit the message button once, spawned right on top of me. Killed him, got my symbol, and polished it. So, there you go. Make sure it's after 9pm game time, find out who in your group got the emote, target that player (yourself if you got the emote) and /say the message "I seek to prove myself to the Order" and whack away. Hope this helps.
omg this was a pain, just spamm it target yoruself target group members just run around the statue spammming. and just beofr you petition a gm spam it 2 or 3 more times. and he wills pawn
fights not solo, if your under 80, so bring a sham friend (slows heals ect) and you will be fine almsot 10k bufless hp monk tank'ed him with no issues
this strat works....solo'ed with 76 monk.....mob does not regen if you FD in an emergency....not sure if he would de-pop if you FD too long...never hit a double...had aura on
I got the emote when we got to the area. Once he targeted me and said the phrase (capitalized O), boom, spawn. So rarrazz was right. See if anyone else in your group got the emote, target them, and hotbutton the phrase.
Order must be in caps... went to loc Pos 3300 Pos 2800 and ran around with a hotkey -- saying I seek to prove myself to the order -- ran around spamming it. The second I changed the "o" to captial O in order, hit the hotkey and bam it spawned after first click...
i didn't even get an emote. Pwnd with 74 warrior 73 druid 65 monk. CAPITALIZE THE O!
As it says elsewhere here, the phrase is "I wish to prove myself to the Order"
I tried "seek" for a while with no success, targetting myself and others in the group. I changed it to "wish" and got the spawn to happen. I did not have anyone targeted at the time. I will say that I had originally got the emote myself when I got to the area and about 5 mins elapsed before I actually got the spawn.
So, I was trying to pop him and was having trouble at first. Tried the whole targetting myself thing, and it wasn't working. Problem was, I never saw the message, or whisper in my ear or whatever from the guy, but the Shadowknight in the group did, so I took a last ditch effort and targetted the SK and said the message again.. boom, he spawned
At around +3400 +2971 i said I wish to prove myself to the Order, and he spawned after about 3 or 4 times pressing hotbutton. Easily owned him with 70 druid, 70 cleric, and me (70 monk) just tanked and they healed me, took about 10minutes, never had to FD, only got one add but druid kited it easily. most it hit me for was 843, but never doubled it, never got under 30%.
Got him to spawn around /loc 3323, 2819, Northwestish from there. Despawns after about 15 minutes. Can confirm no regen, but still doesn't make him soloable by a partially Time geared unbuffed monk. :(
I had done this about 2 weeks ago or so and wanted to let every1 know how to get him to spawn easly. You do not have to target urself that does nothing to help. Once you get to the location u will see a stone piller. Once you see the text on ur screen all you need to do is run around the piller spamming the **** out of area. It does not matter if it is a capital O or lower case o. I spawed him 3 times to test this. You should only have to say it about 15 times or so as you run around the piller and he will spawn trust me. Just remember he is a belly caster. Also this mob does not have any regin what so ever as the Sun does not. Easly done with a ranger and or healer. The ranger can kite or just use a pally or war. to tank. He goes down very very easy. I will send in a pic. I took for EQ to post as well.
just did this fight and the disciple of sun today. disciple of sun went down easily, duoed with me (67 monk) and a 67 ranger friend, but this mob was much tougher. we tried this mob, and found that it was one of the most resistant mobs ive ever fought. ranger couldnt land snare, and mage guildie who tagged along couldnt even land malo. so just a warning, unless i got strangely unlucky, dont expect this fight to be the same as the disciple of sun.
Time of Day doesnt matter, spawned mine at 2am. Belly Caster style dragon. spawning phrase is "I wish to prove myself to the Order" Order must be capitalized doesnt run, 70pally with max defensive tanked with druid healing. able to do fight before 65btw, and did it at 64. I foundi needed to have diarys turned in and pages done as well to get this mob to spawn
