Cake for single group in era

EASILY single groupable in era. Group was mix of GoD/OOW geared.
Pally, rogue, zerker, bard, shaman, cleric all 70
Pally sits buffed at 1270AC 14.7k HP everyone was sitting at 533 resists with bard song. Max hit was 1550 and the only heals thrown out were HoT's from the cleric. The shaman never got him slowed using both magic and disease based slows.
This is MUCH easier that it sounded from these posts.
Good luck to all the Pallys out there ?
Not Hard but his level can be an issue

Tried this with a 68 Druid, 66 Enchanter, 68 Pally and 68 Bard, on RLS server.

He wasn't particularly hard except for his level. Landed enchanter slow at first, but then reslow, after 33 attempts in a row, wouldn't land, even with full bard debuff, and eventually he got a few lucky rounds in. So with just a couple more levels on enchanter and he'd have been cake. Pally tank at 14k hp and 1007 AC, around 280 AAs.
easy kill at 65

MAX HIT: 1876

We did this with 5 x 65 (had a 71 bard just grp so we could get expedition)

the makeup was this

65 SK (me) 950 aa
65 ranger 950 aa
65 paladin 800 aa
65 bard 250 aa
65 beastlord 550 aa

we Had NO CLERIC

the fight was trivial, I used the following to tank

knights gleaming mace for riposte
fabled eye of the sandstorm
fabled wind worn chestplate
<some more fabled gear, and some defiant gear)

I immediately popped Harmtouch, used deflection aura, and soulguard aura.
AFter I burned them, I used unholy aura, and used drain life (60 tap, as opposed to 65 tap)

drain soul is a zero recast tap, and is more mana efficient than 65 tap, innoruuks touch, which has a 10 second recast, and is less mana efficient.

drain soul + unholy aura == total rape on this mob, once slow landed. even then it was still a total rape.


I burned him down while in discipline. paladin spot healed and so did beastlord. didnt even blow lay on hands.

for 2k / hit mob, I expected alittle more.

The end.

You had out of era gear and you popped the scalable instance 5 levels lower than design. But, just as a word of warning to someone who might miss it, .. if YOUR group is NOT 65.. don't expect him to roll over. ;)
Did with 3 & a joke

Did this with 85 pally, 80 monk, 71 clr. We DESTROYED this guy. It was also a 3 box fight. My only help was getting 6 in grp to get task. After you have the task you can add and drop raid w/o worry, have 30 sec for exped drop before auto kick. Also wanted to solo this but zone is merc-less. Could not pop merc with or w/o raid.

Side note with all 3 toons, AA total was less than 800.. so i was not uber by any means.
Piece of Cake

Did with 5.

YOU MUST HAVE A RAID ACTIVE TO GET THE INSTANCE... We invited another box just to make raid, then dropped the box.

67 Pally (13k HP/2k AC), 80 Mage (12k Mana), 80 Warrior (Bout 19k HP/3k AC), 79 Cleric (boxed by War, 9.5k Mana or so), 79 Shaman (Boxed by War, 9.7k Mana or so).

Warrior never went under 80%. I pulled the ghost mob to the RIGHT, which resulted in 2 ghost adds.. We pulled them back and killed. After killing them, I pulled Vuranish back, he came clean.

Hit me on ramp for 800ish just a couple of times.. Fight took under 2min.

Took him out today with a single group consisting of me (Pally), 2 Shaman, Cleric, Wizard and Bard all 75's with mostly POR, TSS Gear.

The fight lasted about 8 minutes and was pretty straightforward. We went up the middle without incident and only a few repops while our Bard cleared the adds around the named. He is a belly caster but the only real concern is his AE Stun. Assist with Group Heals and LoH and that that will make up for any lost heals during the stun. After looting the Soulstone Shard (his only drop) a chest popped which yeilded an earring (Shattered Bone Stud: https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=30719 ). All in all, a fun fight.

All 70s - WAR/SHM/PAL/PAL/SHM/ENC/NEC/DRU/CLR

That's right, 9 people, 8 of them had a mix of Time/GoD gear WAR was about 16K with 3K AC, but with adds along the way, most were offtanked by the pallies (not sure on HPs maybe 12-13K) No one was ever really in danger of dying the whole time, but a missed heal between stuns from the named could have possibly spelled disaster. Most of the casters ranged from (Buffed) 7500-9000 HPs, 7500-9000 mana. FT on all was 18+, say average of 20. Toons had most spells through PoR. Would say AAs on average 400+, cleric was the low at 150, Tank was 725.

Hope this helps guage the force needed for some of you out there, but try and take some key folks if numbers are low. A strong tank with a couple of healers may/may not be overkill, but would be better off than "almost" winning. Resists may have also played a role, but the low-geared cleric didn't get affected much and had 150+ to all stats.

Got him tonight with the a total of 11 people. Very good group all level 70. Not a hard fight...he IS a belly caster and his AE's are NOT that scary.

Necro pulled the adds from around the front and sides of him and then we just pulled him outside of the gate. Fairly easy strat...a full 24 person raid is NOT required if people are decently geared. Dropped Soulstone shard just like he should....the chest dropped the Dirty Belt of something or other...CLR DRU SHM 90mana 90hp 13ac random stats. GL to pallies...if you have any questions send me an ingame tell on the Tribunal Server.

SPECIAL THANK YOU TO:

Hombre for setting up the Raid!!!!!
All peeps from Sol Invictus that helped out!!!!!
And to my family in Vallis Aspectus, you guys Rock!!!!!

Took this guy down about 2 hours ago for my 1.5. Brought 24 people. Total overkill, cleared right up the middle to him. Took a while to kill him, but that was about it. His AE is Quivering Nightmares, the same as TT. Lowers all your stats and about a 1200 DD with a long stun. Good luck pallies.

Although the level of the mobs in this instance are yellow-red to a 70, they are wimps for a 10 person raid of level 65-70's.
I, a level 70 paladin (Full defensive aa's, around 11.7k hp, 2k ac buffed) pulled and main tanked straight north to Vuranish on two occasions quite easily.
Most of the pulls will be single, with a few doubles and 2 with three. Our enchanter was very unsuccessful in mezzing, so we just offtanked, as all the trash mobs on the way hit for less than 1k.
When we got to his room, I pulled one of the closer ghosts, very close to Vuranish, and got a ghost add, Vuranish did not add.
When I pulled him from a decent distance, he smacked me with both AE's that traveled so far back as to hit the entire raid, no one resisted anything the first round, but when a bard came the second time, we resisted 3/4 of them with 400-500 resists. The fight with Vuranish wasn't long with an 11 person raid, biggest problem was keeping him still enough for the nukers/slowers/etc. to stand under him and nuke, we killed him and he spawned a chest upon looting the shard.
Now for the group mission and final WoS raid :D
Resists a lot

As a 65 Necro I couldn't get a single spell to land on this guy, even after the Mage and Shaman debuffed the mob (didn't have a Chanter to debuff it further).

Also, even with 500 in all resists, I only resisted his AEs about half the time... which was a bit annoying when I couldn't lifetap him to heal myself. Pet got hit more and went to skelly heaven in about thirty seconds.

Edit: Ah, someone told me that you have to be in melee range to cast on him, like dragons. That would make sense.

11.8k, 2k Pally MT easy

11.8k, 2k pally MT np
19 of us came and owned this event. Mostly elemental, with a few non-raiders to fill slots.

I was MT at 11.8k, 2k max buffed. We had 2 clerics for CHs, a druid, 2 shammies, and 3 of us pallies spotting and Group heals. All the rest were DPS cept for one chanty-bot.

Bard pulled 2 at a time and we cleared straight to the boss. There are 3 shade-Nihil thingies there with Vuranish, but he did not add when we pulled them, although they did asisst on each other.

Pulled boss to us, i popped defensive, and we went to town on his ***** Any 10.5k/2k pally should be able to tank this guy with PoP defensives easily with 2 cleric and some spotters.

As usual he popped a chest, which had (now post-DoN and DoD) semi-decent gear, which went straight to someone's Bazbot lol!

GL pallies :)
