picked blade of insanity up off the mob today. model was human female. named mobs seem to have randomized (ish) models. even amongst different clients. was playing in griegs a few weeks ago boxing, and one of the named mobs looked like a kobold on one screen and a giant spider on another.

i'm just trying to finish out the old world eq1 stuff, and basically getting nowhere due to how broken things are these days.
We killed this guy last night, and he dropped the Blade of Insanity. However, during the fight (I was MT), he hit me with a spell effect that gave me an illusionary form of some kind of bizzare animal. I was bright orange, and looked like a cross between a tiger, giraffe, and horse. I'm not sure what model was used, and it didn't seem to impact my fighting too much, but it was very funny to watch. It removed my shrink effect once it wore off, of course, and I would bet it overwrites other illusion spells.
A couple things: 1) The illusion you had cast on you sounds like a Zelniak, a common Mob in DSP (which is just outside GE, on one side of the dungeon that is). and 2) Used to be that quite a few mobs in GE proccd similare illusion: other type effects, but all the illusory types were of mobs in GE. Was wicked cool and I have a bunch of SS from raids my guild did (MT turned into a Female Troll, nekkid, of course). FUN!
Ebon Tendrils killed this mob again on Thurs 18th Dec 2003. Would you like to join a friendly, well reputed guild that brings down mobs like this? If so visit our web-site at www.ebontendrils.com for more info on us and how to apply.
This mob is not always level 60. He poped near the DSP ent when we were a ways so we went and got him. He was dark blue to level 59. Dropped the gloves twice on two kills. We also killed Deoreo two times as she almost intantly popped.
