Hobgoblin Anguish Lord  

Was able to kill entire cycle including Anguish Lord on TLP in GoD with Bard + Druid. Bard was geared out in Qvic+ gear in all slots, druid was significantly less geared.

Max hit (with Mitigation of the Mighty) was over 1500. I was able to tank just the Anguish Lord while out of range of the bat and mephit adds; all 3 are permarooted. He frequently cast an AE that was interrupting Druid CHeal (Karana renewal or whatever) so she was casting faster heals. He did not have a significant HP pool, fight lasted about 4 minutes with just Bard melee DPS and Damage Shields.

The bat conned yellow (didn't check his level)
Mephit was level 65
Anguish Lord was level 70

This mob cons yellow to my 73 bst, so it has to be higher than 71.

I just soloed him.....lvl 75 SK with 625 AAs, 2.0 12.5k hp 3k AC unbuffed for fight. 10k+ mana. I killed the annoying mefrit first, then pounded the hell out of the Anguish Lord...fight took 3 mins or so. Dropped Greatsword and boots. Easy fight for me, was bored so figured I would give it a try.

Is this the mob that the wiz epic 2.0 npc speaks of? if so plz post here.

Here is the strategy how we did it:

First, you don't have to fight all 3 of them at once. You can kill them one by one, just bring some time and patience and you will be fine.

The one you have to kill first is that blue one, the Mephit. Its 1500 dmg AE is very annoying and will kill your whole raid faster than you are willing to believe.
So, take all your people to the left side of the cave and pull clean right in front of your raid, so you don't get any adds. Remember the ones behind the big rocks close to the Lord.
When you cleaned the place, make everyone ready to rush the Mephit and ONLY the Mephit. Fight at maximum melee range, stay out of the melee range of the Lord and the Bat. Everyone who can nuke, nuke the ******* for all mana you`ve got. The Mephit HAS to die very fast or you will end up with a lot of dead people. Don't bother healing too much, rather nuke, it doesn't have so much HP.

Now, pull the corpses, rez, rebuff and walk over to the other side of the cave, you will use the same strategy for the Bat. When you got to the other side of the cave, pull the area clean, get ready to rush the bat, using the same tactic. Nuke the hell out of the Bat, use offensive disciplines if they are up, just kill it fast. The Bat has about the same amount of HP as the Mephit so it will go down pretty fast.

After that, pull corpses, rez, rebuff, get ready for Lord.
First, check for possible respawns. Respawn in this cave is pretty fast, so make sure your people don't go afk too often or are distracted by TV or other things.
To fight the Lord, get behind him, your back against the Wall. Use fast heals instead of CH-chain cause the Knockback will rip your CH-chain anyway. Let all the healers (clerics, druids and shaman when they are done debuffing) heal your Main Tank with the fastest heals they have. Some can even use CH, let them decide who will cast what.
Rampage Tank will help a lot, cause sometimes the Lord Rampages, but not too often.

Oh, forgot to say that Levi will help a lot for all three fights cause you won't get so much damage when you take a flight through the cave. ;)


Further questions? Tell Drozzee on Solusek Ro

Using a precise strategy, my guild kills him regularly with 18 or less (average level 62ish, no VT loot) and the entire sequence is a 3 hour effort. He also drops Clamitous Hilted Fang and Blackened Greatsword. The Greatsword and Sullied Mithril Blade seem to be rarer. He seems to have around 80k HP, is immune to slow, a level 70 Shadowknight, and has a powerful knockback AE with a small DD component (Unresistable) that he uses every 30 seconds (effectively making the use of Complete Heal impossible), though his resists are fairly low. He does not Rampage or Flurry, but does hit for 1200x2, leads off with a nice 1500ish harmtouch, and loves to eat healers.

First off: I agree with Willowhaven completely.
Second:There may be a rare drop that is uber and just not reported (or even discovered) yet. If not now, there could be after next patch. You never know.
Uber loot or not, this whole encounter looks like A LOT of FUN and very challenging.

Willowhaven could not have said it better. Im getting tired of reading endless posts and flames about how its not worth the time to kill anything for the loot. What would you do if sony got rid of loot? Or revamped it to no longer fit your class? You are missing the point of this mob and most others that are difficult to spawn and or kill. Its the difficulty, the challenge and the ability to say yup.....we did that! The planes are meant for a challenge not a horde zone. ToV is a great zone but its a loot horde zone. Thats what it was designed for.
