pained soul  

Monster
Screenshot

Uploaded July 24th, 2007

The pained soul carries one of three parts of the Medallion of the Obulus, a component in the old Veeshan's Peak key quest.

It spawns at -1835, -4370, -355 in Trakanon's Teeth. Any of the varieties of spectral Iksar wandering the surrounding area can be the placeholder. The pained soul itself is a very rare spawn.

  • Respawn Timer: 5 minutes 20 seconds for the PH

On test server during anniversary event.

Spawn time was just over 5 minutes as mentioned. Got him on my 7th spawn.

Others were correct in that fabled pain soul did not aggro, but others did. Dropped fabled medallion and regular one.

I am not sure why the admin updated his spawn time 8 hours when I said 8 hours to spawn...what I am saying is it took 8 hours to pop for ME. His PH is 5 min 20 sec like I said.

A shade over 5 minutes on spawn is correct. Took me under 1 hour to get him. Possible increased frequency on TLP or I got lucky.

PH is "spectral Keeper" or "spectral partisan" or "spectral champion"
Static mob (doesn't wander)
Spawns at Loc: -1830, -4370

Tough camp, up to 12 hours. If he is not there, might have been trained away and didn't path back.

Mob doesn't attack on sight but his ph's do so if you park a pet class that can take a few hits, you can be semi-afk.

Also a lot easier to camp during the EQ aniversary as the "fabled" version spawns more often and also drops the piece, although, he is a lot tougher.

Impossible Spawn

All I can add or not add, is that I have been camping this spot now for over 16 straight hours, and besides wanderers, all that pop are Spectral Keeper and Spectral Champion. I kill ANYTHING that comes around, and run around doing that, and the timer of 7 minutes is right, but no Pained Soul... Anyone have any helpful insights?

Edited, Feb 24th 2007 6:10pm by Fandyiniel

Took 36 straight hours, with help from a couple friends to get this stupid monster to finally show. Didn't leave the spot at all. It IS non-aggro monster until you attack it. OMG what a waste of 2 days! But thanks to the help from my friends, I have the piece - but on a side note, I thought this was everQUEST not everCAMP!!

Did the spawn type change from place holder to timed?

I am at the reported location of pained soul, or his place holder (My /loc is -1839, -4370). There is no place holder spawning. I have been here for about two or three hours now. There are only wanderers. I have determined there are no place holders poppinng by four methods. First, while I was invisible to undead, I stood looking at the spot where the place holder was supposed to spawn, and nothing popped in that spot. Second, while still invisible to undead I went for a walk, and nothing was nearby that was stationary. Third, I leved to the top of the broken wall on the top of the second floor of this building where the place holder was supposed to be and afk'd, and checked track. Since no one else was in the zone, and no killing was happening, nothing popped including at the ph spot. Fourth, I manuvered so I could clearly see the spot where pained soul was supposed to pop, and no pop was visible. Further, I checked track sorted by distance, and pained soul was not on track near by (just in case he was by some means invisible to me, even though I have a see invisible focus effect and Spirit of Eagle on at all times.). So, no place holders, no invisible pained soul, which leads me to wonder if he is now on a timer?
Answer: NO the spawn is as it always was.

After the above post, I was thinking, and wondered if the place holder for pained soul was a stationary mob, did it wander off for some reason and get stuck? (Feared, fleeing, chasing a player, etc.) And then the reason to be mobile went away becasue the player lost aggro, or the player zoned, etc. In which case the mob may have remained stationary at its new location. So, i decided to freshen up the spectral xyz's in the area. Being a ranger, I tracked things by spawn time and killed them from oldest to most recent in the ruined city area of the south eastern part of the zone. After a while all of the spectral mobs were new in the city area, but still no ph popping. I then went on a zone wide killing spree. I killed all of the rest of the spectral mobs that were probably in their proper spawn spots near the numerous ruined buildings, and all the wandering ones near the Emperor. I made sure that all the mobs were new spawns by aged tracking (normal according to the tracking sort list). This took a long time. (? four hours?) While doing this, I found a spectral mob which was out in the middle of no where, all by himself, not near the Emperor, or any of the ruins which I killed. When I got back to the ph spot specifed above, the ph was there, and has spawned every approximately 6.5 minutes as others have said. I suspect I found the lost ph out in the middle of now where. I have seen this kind of thing happen before with a vendor Centaur in South Karana once, and several times in Kael Drakkal with mobs disturbed by during hits on Tormax or Avatar of War.

I got the pained soul to spawn on 3rd or 4th spawn. I guess I am lucky good luck to the rest of you camping him later on. Also the location listed in a previous post is correct. "Loc: -1840, -4370

spawn timer: ~6 min 30 secs."

This loc is right on (from above), camped it last night, killed every keeper and champion that spawned right there (plus several roamers) after 2.5 hours the Pained Soul popped.

Use a Pet Class to Camp it.....
# Jan 05 2006 at 5:43 AM Rating: Decent
Confirmed: Pained Soul is NOT KOS.

There are a ton of roamers at this camp. However I believe you could do the AFK Pet class trick. (That worked for the one in Dreadlands).

Camp a pet class there. Pull up the pet. Buff. etc. Get them pet toys. Sit afk at the loc. KOS mobs spawn attack - this camp debuffs you. Anyway they keep beating on your main toon. Pet will kill the PHer. (This camp has some roamers so you may want to stay semi-at-keyboard until you see if pet will handle the adds too).

Anyway eventually the PHer's will attack you and pet kills them off automatically. Eventually the named does pop and does not aggro. Log on the toon you want to loot with. Kill it and loot up.

SoE can blow me

I did not see this anywhere in the posts, but the Pained Soul is smaller in appearance than all of his PHs.

Frer doesn't know what he's talking about. I killed 4 PH's and the pained soul popped. He's just a bad droid. Smiley: grin

Wow. Sitting in the same exact spot for 5+ hours is getting really annoying. Almost beginning to wonder if he even pops any more.

EDIT

9 hours into camp, still nothing. If I didn't have South Parks to watch, I probably would have fallen asleep 4 hours ago.

I can confirm this location to be accurate!

You have to zig zag your way in through all the buildings, but once there, you will deal with one static spawn at that exact location mentioned by Scholar.

I was doing it for my 3-box and had Pained Soul spawn 3 times in about 2 hours. Easy!

Thanks for the tip, Scholar. Happy to see some useful information here on Alla instead of all the usual nonsense :)
