While testing out my new Hole Key, I killed one of these warriors ... he dropped

Banerian

Earthen Blade, 26/50 2HS, war/ber, haste at 25th level. It's on the site, I'm sure. I was pretty surprised to see one drop off a regular elemental warrior at the entrance; first one I've seen after dozens & dozens of kills there.

:)

The first hallway with six of these guys is a good solo camp for a 49th necro to (so far)52nd.

(warning: long-ish post on the methods I've used to successfully solo-camp and take advantage of that Hole xp bonus - mostly necro stuff, but also the technique to single pull them and prevent adds)

This camp is easily single pulled, if you're careful (there's a trick to it, see below) and a single add can be handled by you and your lvl 49 pet (Invoke Death).

Memmed spells: Bond of Death, Ignite Blood, Insidious Retrogression, Root (just in case), Diamondskin (or Manaskin), Pact of Shadow, Augment Death, Gate

Buff pet with Augment Death, and set to guard midway along the first walkway around the corner from the hall, step back and stand on the low wall as far away from the mob as possible, and pull the first visible elemental warrior with Bond of Death - have pet attack as the mob gets to it, then jolt pet with Pact of Shadow - assist your pet and hit the mob with Ignite Blood (or some other nice-ish, fast-casting DOT) - when the elemental warrior gets down below 50% HP, hit it with Insidious Retrogression (you have to use either that or Dooming Darkness or Cascading Darkness to get a snare on it - it'll run when it's HP gets to about 10-15%, usually, and if it makes it back to where it's line-of-sight with the other warriors, you'll get adds - two are just handle-able, three and it's time to swim for the exit or gate - I use insidious retrogression because at lvl 51 they resisted Dooming Darkness fairly often). Once it's snared, it'll just stand there for the last 10-15% and look stupid while your pet and DOTs wear it down - if you root it, it'll fight to the bitter end.

You'll always be pulling the mobs out of the hall and onto that first broken walkway where you initially set your pet.

For the second one, use F9 to target it while you're still around the corner, then step just into the entrance of the hall and wait for it to jump you - when it jumps, run back to your pet and repeat the process - Bond of Death on mob, Pact of Shadow on Pet, Ignite Blood on mob, Insidious Retrogression on mob, loot. The remaining four I pull with Bond of Death, like the first one - for those four, it's safe to stand in the entrance of the hall to pull - but be ready to move quickly once your spell lands.

The trick to the single pulls is that it takes a bout a tick for these guys to aggro - and adds will only jump in if they see one of their comrades being attacked AND the attacker is in line-of-sight. So you have a couple seconds after your pulling spell lands to get out of the hallway entrance and out of their line of sight - your prey will obligingly come to you and pet and not bring any friends.

If you Lich yourself up, and only use Pact of Shadow on your pet on every other pull, or so, you can actually pull all six in order and break the camp in - but it's a lot of work to keep pulling all six. You pretty much have to pull the next one as soon as possible - but the xp is fantastic. If you're really good and motivated, you might end up with a couple minutes to rest before the first mob respawns.

These guys take 20 minutes to respawn, so just set a kitchen timer when you pull your first one, and you'll know exactly when they'll start re-popping.

I didn't start camping here until lvl 51, but I'm using all level 49 or lower spells so I think it's in the realm of possibility at 49 - but you might just have to try it and see - your mileage may vary.

What do these hit for Max?
How many HP's do they have?
How are their resists?

Can a Sk of the lvl 49 Solo this guy? If not, what lvl can he solo this guy? And the Imbued Granite Spaulders , how rare is that loot from this guy? Looking to come here and lvl up/ for some loot. Ty for all help =)

Dropped a Fiery Jewel of the Underfoot today (on Test Server). Don't know what it's for, though.

These elementals(dunno about the halfpipe casters) drop alot of "Loam Encrusted" armor. The group found 4 pieces in 7 yellows of xp for me. Some is very nice, don't have stats atm but will submit. Basically it is enc equip, boots were 8cha/dex/agi with saves, shoulders being 3int/cha/agi and +2 all saves. On the new server, there's not an economy going good so it's good for my enc.

I had one of these drop 'A living heart of a Brell minion'. Does anyone know what it is used for?

The crown is very common, usually rots on the server I am on (Quellious). And you can easily solo here at 54. (entrance that is)

Dropped Loam Encrusted Amice, the one that spawns in the room before the bridge/pit area.
