81 ranger, 32.3k hps 3932 ac (all visible armor is abstruse) self buffed only. No merc, i was wondering around HSing and ran into this guy. I should have /con the guy before i engaged I guess. He got me to 20m before i used weapon shield and did origin to get outta there. I was only able to get him to 60% health. I used ranger slow via the epic on him and it did slow him down quite a bit but not enough apparently.
Just took him down with my 78 Warrior 287 AA's and 70 Paladin 5 AA's 1 gold member healer merc, 1 silver member wizard merc. tier 1 healer merc went OOM a bunch of times, I have a rune weapon and fabled pet weapon on warrior, with pally heals killed him easily took about 12 min. dropped ornate greatblade and 2 phosperus (SP) powders.
Just did him with a dru, sham, sham, rogue, rogue and warrior. Most are OOW or GOD geared (except druid is an alt). Druid ran short of mana, but shammies pitched in. Took about 8 mins to down him. Was fun. Warrior (me) buffed to 14.2kHP/2700AC
just took him down tonight w/ one group. war, cler, sham, dru, dru, beserker, war was about 15k/2.9k buffed. was fairly easy, a bit lengthy, maybe 10minute fight. all and all, not that hard and loot isn't that good for that matter
I found that he was pretty easy. My guild has just become elemental flagged and we skipped VT so our gear isn't all that great, our first day in Fire we had about 40 people we killed the 2 charm birds and this dude, charm bards were a little challenging at first, but this guy was a pushover.
