He only spawns out of the mephit traps in the south of the zone. On the building area there in the south there are 5 traps. A good map showing these is at http://www.thesteelwarrior.org/forum/showthread.php?t=7110 Every 5th trap you spawn has a chance of being named or a PH. You will know it is a PH because if it is a standard trap it will be a drone, if it is the PH it is a warrior and obviously you will know if it is the named.
Got this item last night... pet hits for about 90 on the mobs in PoEB... kind of sucks, but looks neat. Doubt I will pull this out of my bags for anything other than farming stuff that isn't a challenge.
Graphic is different now, It looks like a yellow battlefist, and the trap spawns on the way to the crock at the set of stairs on the far right. Super rare only 2 or 3 on every server.
When it procs, a couple glowing fists with bubbles (read, epic fists graphic) appear for 10 seconds to beat on the enemy they proc'd on. They act kinda like cleric pet hammer "thumpy".
Yeah I'm ragging a weapon I'd love to obtain but the volley ball animation is totally void of imagination. How hard would it have been to use the Scrounging Rat animation from CoD? That little guy just oozes kung fu.
it is entirely possible to exp in poearth near the temple, I have, and many of my guildmates do it on a regular basis.
and if you knew anything about the traps, you know that the majority of the named mobs that drop items like this, are sprung from the traps.
I just recently got the ranger pet weapon, I have the only one on our server, and guilds have been in the elementals for 4 months or more now, and guess what, it dropped from a trap mob.
so instead of complaining about how rare something is, at least go try and exp in the zone before you say it is impossible, and if you cant exp there, then your group isnt very good.
You missed the point of my post. Why would groups come to the temple area to xp when they can go to PoFire and make equal xp for 1/4th the risk? Single groups are doable in every elemental plane, but some are better then others.
And yes I know this drops off the mephit that is spawned during a trap... otw to Croc like I said in my post. The entire zone has been bugged for the last few weeks and NOTHING will spawn (including the traps). Monks get the shaft once again.
Monks really get the shaft on our pet weapon! The mephit that drops this is on the way to the big croc with Hoshkar AE... NO ONE can or will xp there. It's way too many roamers and traps. Other classes easily pick up their pet weapons in an xp group meanwhile monks only have a chance to get their's on a full raid. The Earthen Fist is the mob's RARE drop btw, usually drops some ****** caster ring.
no doubt lol what monkie is gonna be soloing at this high end of agame ya know besides farming something for their alt =P just kidding but honestly, if you are fighting in PoT for stuff like this ou aren't soloing jack, your out being th head of DPS of yer guidl =)
Well first off, max stats is 305 for melee stats. And second, that mace requires you to kill all four elemental gods, Fennin Ro, Corinav, The Rathe Council, and Xegony. Plus, the pets don't proc as much as you want them to on the Earthen Fist. I've never gotten more than 2 in one battle myself, but you can if you're getting pretty lucky. This mace isn't as much for monks as others, considering the 20/19 from Xegony, which you can get if you can get the mace.
At 35 you can hit Sol A, then maybe Sol B, then HK nobles, then if you're really good and have some hp buffs you can do some PoJ stuffs, you can solo till 60 but after 55 it really isn't even worth it. Amost always take a group over soloing. (unless oyu have hella cool gear of hella cool weapons)
