The Captain is found at pos 700, neg 5730, in a group of several green NPC's. I went around to single him out. He is green to a lvl 43 and was killed with four blasts of Winter's Roar. But watch out for the giant-looking NPC's. The ones I conned were dark blue to me. They can distract you from talking to the spirit! So you might bring along a friendly tank to let you finish your exchange with the spirit.

Go ahead. Drink it. it is safe. I concocted it myself!

I was wondering if the lesser spirits that spawn in Feild of Bone when you kill the Iksar Marauders can start the shammy epic as well? cause that is easeier for an iksar to get to then OoT and Butcherblock.
Thank you

They also spawn from one of the bandit camps in bbm; it's pretty secluded, so an ikky could get the lesser spirit to spawn there as well.

Yes, the lesser spirits that can spawn from Iksar Manslayers work, there are a number of mobs set across the game to help make it easier to start.

About to start my epic with my shaman, where exactly on the isle does surestout spawn. On EQatlas there is no position of his camp given or any information about the other inhabitants of this isle. Can anyway enlighten me as to where I should look and where I should avoid?

Hop the boat in Freeport, get off at the first dock.

Hop in the water keep the dock (and the island) on your right.
Keep your eyes open to your left for Broken Druid Rings. Get back on land there.

Keeping Druids rings on your right, head along the shore once again. After a row boat will be Gornit. Be careful with him, but he should be camped. Right after Gornit is a camp of pirates, that is where I believe you need to be.

All that I can tell you is that it's easier to start the epic with Peg Leg in Butcherblock. Go there and /shout or /ooc to see if anyone's camping Peg Leg - frequently there's an xp group there. Although you're probably too high level to join the group (usually 8-12 or so are the group levels) they'll usually let you hang out and hail the lesser spirit in return for some buffs, SoWs and heals. Just make sure that nobody kills it. ;-) Peg Leg's camp is #10 on the EQAtlas map of Butcherblock, BTW.

Could a group of a 17 pally, an 18 ranger, and maybe a 16 pally take down the capt. without much trouble. Also, if i lull this guy will the magician still come with him, and could we take down both at the same time?

The Spirits these people have been seeing are ancestral spirits that are part of the Shaman Epic. Shamans have to discuss issues with dozens of them and answer their riddles and questions to earn the Epic. It's no wonder they hit so hard or cast such powerful spells, they are from a different plane, and have the power of our ancestors to back them up, but they are easily banished from Norrath (they dont have a lot of hp). Before ye go around killin these things, make sure there isnt a Shaman lookin to talk to him. I apologize that this post doesnt hold any relevant information on the Cap'n, but I thought I would clear up the Spirit issue.

Lesser Spirits are a very low lvl, and only have around 40 HP. Their spells do 200 + dmg, very qucikly. My lvl 17 ranger saw one at the BB docks, and I dual wielded, and took it down in 1 round of attack, before it could cast.

If you took it down before it could cast, how do you know it can cast and what the spell does?

never seen a lesser spirit cast a spell other than a low level buff and minor healing on itself.

Their Shammy's of maybe level 2 or 3, I killed one in Field of bone with my monk at level 4, took about 5 mins, if it could cast offensive spells I think it would have tried to.

Level does vary

Capt Surestout varies from as low as 18th level to has high as 21st or 22nd. My partner and I must've killed him a dozen times or more over the weekend. Dixl Drool on the other hand was always 20th level though.

LOL....i was a lvl 10 ranger long ago when the spirits first started showing up....coned green to me in FP...snared it and got hit for 200+ a pop :) The GM came and checked it out and she said she would report it. I went and fought another with my 34monk and it never hit me and died in 1 kick. So they fight at their con now.

Was green to me at 35, but still aggroed me as soon as he spawned. Drops a pirate earring every time, I was there with a friend and it took us 7 kills to get 2 bracers. His spawn time is around 10 mins. The magician in his camp is very annoying as well, as he casts a fairly powerful damage shield on him. Fight him out of his range if you can.

I've been hunting this guy off and on since I hit 22. He was high blue to me then but continues to be blue to me at 25. I can harmony the rest of the camp (including Gornit who's mid 30s) and the Buccaneer. I can usually finish him off by porcupining him and then take Dixl out.

He hits for between 34 and 46 points most of the time. He's coin is pretty good and he sometimes drops runes. Note: he does NOT always drop the Bracer of Erollisi (which is lore) but he does drop it frequently.

Take care because there are Seafury Cyclops nearby. Gornit will also occasionally walk up the shore from his spawn point in the bay and then walk back.

If you don't have harmony or a similar spell then you *might* be able to pull the enchanter and his pet without pulling Dixl or the Captain but I'd say be careful. If I pull more than one of these guys I usually die (other people nearby don't usually help you out I've noticed).

Went there to see if I could smack ol' Surestout down, but the little bugger conned red to me and resisted every spell of mine at 19. Please post if you know his level, I want to X this guy.

Well, I went back to the seafury island at 20 an Surestout conned blue to me. I Harmonied the camp and tried to pull him, but something went wrong and i lost a level. Now he's conning yellow at 19.
I dont know his level range but he dosent stay 20.
After i kill him a lesser spirti pops. It conned green and dubiously to me twice at 19th level and didnt aggro, but that may be because I am a druid and it looks like a wolf. I hear its part of the shaman epic weapon quest.

One more thing, Surestout can backstab. He hit me for 142 dmg and laid my elven **** out cold tonight

Does he have a place holder? What does this guy hit for? For those of us who can't nuke, and aren't high enough to take on the whole camp, can his minions be lulled so he can be pulled out of agro-range? I see Gornit is a Pirate as well--and he wanders--where's a good spot to pull the Capt. to so as to avoid multiple targets? Does the Capt. cast? If so, what? Does he run? What about all those Cyclops tottering about? Will they help him? I'd rather not have to retrieve from Freeport to find this out. Those who can't bind themselves are a little bit handicapped so we tend to ask a lot of questions and be on the cautious side. I could put the Bracer to good use now @ lvl 20.--Thanks, Eworthing, Pal, Lanys

Ok, strange new thing. I was in OOT today and decided to kill the captain. After he died, a wolf called the lesser spirit popped up. He glowers at me so I couldn't get any info out of him... but he responds when hailed. Possible part of new quests? He was green to a lvl 50 though
