protector of Zek  

oddly named mob as part of the name has upper-case letters (most of EQ is one or the other... and once upon a time it was pretty much only special named that had upper case).

I ran into a bunch of these in the hallways around the arena (as in accessed by the doors in the arena itself when you try and work your way back up).

They were social for aggro.

faction hits:

Kromzek -30
Kromrif -7
King Tormax -7

Claws of Veeshan +15


drops: Giant Warrior Helmet, foreign power source, black sapphire, Storm Giant Meat

Anyone know the spawn time of the Protectors? The protectors spawn realtively quickly 20 mintues or so. The Protectors seem to take much longer.

seems there're only 3 poz in KD,so i do need the drop rate information of A Foreign Power Source ,could anyone can tell? thx

I soloed 2 of these guys at once was a very hard fight had to use all my abilities and aa's for A Foreign Power Source, which is the reason I went pet had a stun proc that happened to stick after I used a tash proc weapon. had to just deal with the other ******* hitting on me. You can get two on this it just really sucks for soloing. I was told it drops off the cleric types with good melee which are the ones that can gate. I have a bunch o aa's, but only problem is rampage and gate and rampage.

BTW I thought this was important friend got this in 10 kills. It took me believe or not after his 70 kills to get so this is totally random and totally FRIGIN BS. If your coming to this camp thinking it's an easy VP quest IT'S NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I noticed last nite these guys dont have as much cold resist as the other giants. JBB landed for full most of the time.

Hammer of Rage earlier today.

2HB 30/46 proc: yaulp

My cleric was the only one who wanted.

did these tonight all night long with~
59 cleric
59 warrior
58 mage
55 monk
55 paladin
54 enchanter

i (the monk) split them, the 59 warrior got on them .. and they died (very slowly, but they died). put the paladin on any adds and your set.

we pulled the ones by where derakor is, because the named guy who hangs in the middle was down.

its easiest if you have most of the arena already cleard, atleast if you wanna do it with one group.

u can use stun on giants. I am so sick of hearing ppl tell me when we r raiding "u cnat stun them" after i am yelling at them to stun. No they dont get "stunned" but it still interupts theer casting. so do stun wehn they go to cast gate or ur screwed when they bring back friends. and even if you do keep the other one vbusy he will CH the one whoes nearly dead.

Well my Guilds Method was Have them Tashed for easy casting on them but the Chanters just Mana Tap/Drain the Hell out of thwm which in turn reduces the chance they Gate and or CH, Had these guys drop a Defiance a Black Blade of Tormenting, and a Velium Swiftblade... Very nice Seeing we got these in like 2-3 Hrs

Last night our guild dropped him and he dropped 'a bloody protector of Zek head'. It is NO DROP. Anyone know what this is for?

you cant stun them.
and they also complete heal each other, so dont
rootpark them, keep em busy if yon cant pull them
single
(SKs can seperate them with engulf darknes)

took one of the 3 protectors from the arena , and a wandering giant by the ramp to the arena area both at the same time with 2 groups. fighting these guys is very fun. i personally dont consider them that hard. the fights are fun though, sure beats doing seb without a chanter/snarer just so i can stay awake cause the game has gotten so freaking dull.

Sorry got 2 messages for some reason.
