the Hidden Jester  

There are 14 jester spawns in the Black & White area (the only 14 in the zone). Two of them are in the water in the room and are easy to miss. They are each on a 24-minute respawn timer, and the masks have a 5% drop rate. Assuming my math is correct, this means you have a 51% chance of getting ONE mask (of either type) per clear, or a 30% chance of getting a specific mask per clear.

The mad jesters have about 85k in health and hit for 800+ (probably higher depending on mitigation).
The insane jesters have about 150k in health and hit for 950+
The Hidden Jester has about 174k in health, hits 1050+, and AE rampages.

The Hidden Jester drops two items from its loot table.

Also drops Marvelous Black Feather Cloak. Just did event and he dropped two of them. 19 in the raid, no problems, besides a cleric death.

My guild <Anguish> of Sullon Zek was the first to take him down on the server. At first you have to clear the room of mobs, then turn in the quest items to the halfling. Room then spawns with 6 mobs, all roughly level 60 I think. As soon as you kill the last mob there another wave of 4 mobs spawns, levels 62-63. Then the last wave spawns, 2 mobs, both either level 64 or 65, cant quite remember. Upon killing them, the jester spawns, is level 70, doubles for around 1k. Mitigates slow, and has (im only guessing) but somwhere around 110k-150k hitpoints. The problem isn't about doing the damage to him, it's doing the damage to him before the raid is wiped. He does rampage and the melee's will go down extremely fast if not careful. Can be a very hard mob to take out.
