the king
# Mar 01 2002 at 6:42 AM Rating: Default
my friend (human cleric) and i (half-elf ranger) got respectively from levels 9 and 10 to 11 and 12 in two days at the chessboard, and we killed the King twice during that time. Effective gameplay time is around 8-10 hours. he conned red for both us, but we figured we could take him on.

the first time we got killed. the second time we got another guy with us, a lvl 12 shaman, and got him. That time he dropped a Words of Tyranny.
To kill him, best way is to just run up to him with the hardest hitter and start slashing away at him while casters heal you until the king runs out of mana and goes into melee, then its just to hack away until he dies.

We were both twinked, and stats around that time for me were 310-380 hp with and without buffs, ac 320-340. My axe of iron back hits up to 29.

hope this helps future campers!

me and me friend with twinked lvl 10 (got to 11 and 12 at the chessboard) ranger and cleric 9 (10 and 11 at chessboard) took him out twice in two days, and we played for about 10hours all-in-all. He is easy to take out if youre careful and dont chicken out; he will hit you HARD with a bunch of offensive spells at first, which will take you down in health, but start hacking away at him and have your friend heal you until the king goes into melee, then hack away until he dies.

my stats when i killed him the first time were approx:

hp: 310-380 (no-buff to various buffs)
ac: 330-340 ( - " - )

my axe hits for about 5-29p of damage and kick does 1-9.

health does go down pretty much, but if you have your cleric/whatever casting heals its ok.

the two times so far we killed him, i got: a carnelian (a gem), Words of Tyranny.

hope this helps future campers!

happy surprise

I had my lvl 25 bard in BB, back from the Lake and decided to checkout the Cheesboard for old times sake. I was surprised to see that the king cnned a light blue to me .. but was happy for the easy exp. He did not drop anything but some cash, though his body pulsed and glowed even after he was dead, a bug?
level solo

I've seen the king twice...first time a few days ago and he spawned in the middle of the board...he conned yellow to me at 14...I killed him last night...he spawned on the right side of the board (next to front pawn) and he conned blue to me at 14...WTF...I wonder if the yellow spawn was the one that drops the crown...

Saw this guy a lot when I was hunting at the chessboard level 8-11. Must've killed him 15 times and he never once dropped a flippin thing. Totally worthless.... unless somethin else happens.
Rare spawn?

Saw him twice yesterday on the Terris-Thule server within 3 hours. My lil group of a 9 lvl druid, 10 lvl ranger and 11 lvl warrior killed him with relatively no problem. Only thing he dropped either time though was bone chips.
Dropped a caster research item

Three of my guild - Kolani, my level 12 ranger; Ladyslipper, a level 12 cleric and Aleyla; a level 10 mage were bored today, so we decided to clean off the Chessboard. He popped up, and we took him out pretty fast. He dropped a gem that mages need for spell research, so I handed it right over to Aleyla. He conned yellow to me, but he was much less work than the rooks and the bishop.
About the King and Pawns...

My group tried to jump him today. Two level 10 rangers, a level nine ranger, two level eight mages, and a level 9 dwarf something or another. We got whipped twice because we couldn't seperate him from a pawn that was with him. We'd try to pull the pawn, and he'd go aggro on us. Last I knew, he was still there on the Firiona Vie server.
Crown

What is the crown for? Stats?
the deal

I'm a 13th level paladin. No twinking, no undead dd spells at my level, just some bronze and banded armor and a decent weapon and a shiny brass shield. At my level, he conned yellow most of the time, even rarely. I was soloing the chessboard and I took him alone with only courage and yaulp as buffs. By the time I killed him, I was down to one full bubble of life. Folks, this is not a hard mob. Right off the bat, he can hit you hard, for 100+ damage. At first he continues to cast a few other spells, but then he engages in melee. Once he does that, he's toast. I didn't even use lay on hands.
stupid

to the Anonymous guy that said he was tough. Your lvl 4 what the He** did you think he would be easy!
And to the gnome who says he's lvl 17. If he conned blue to you at lvl 16 why do you say he's lvl 17?!

I was here camping buy my self when I was lvl 11 druid. hunting blue Pawns. then he poped and casted an attack that did 102 damage to me. Luckally I had a SoW from a higher lvl druid. I ran and got away. I've came back a couple of time now and then but every time he's never there. He takes like 3 or more hours to respond. And I heard that he had a Caster only crown but it was a rare an almost never drop like 1\1000. Also people think he's a lvl 16 wizard. but I don't beacuse he hase rusty slash wepons. Now I came back when i was a lvl 16 druid hoping to find him. Waited 2 hrs and didn't pop. So I just killed the Rooks and Bishops who poped that were light blue to me. So my advice is that don't try and camp the king. He hardly ever pops.

Loot

He does not drop the bloodforge hammer. Only loot I have gotten is bone chips and rusty weapon sometimes. I have however heard of a once a month drop... it's a purecaster only crown. Good luck on getting it though.

He conned blue to my level 16 gnome warrior, but who knows, maybe it's a bug.
