Wrong mob

This is a mob that sits in the hut of the North West coldain camp in EW, not Tanik, who is part of the 4th Coldain Shawl quest. Tanik spawns near the ramp to Kael, when his trigger is walked on. This is a permanant mob.
A little Help

I can't get that damn injured Snow Dorf to spawn at the Kael Ramp. I put the velium vial on my curser and wandered around the entire perimeter of the ramp clicking away. I did this for 6 straight hours. I even petetioned a Guide, but Guides are worthless. Every now and then I get a message saying "You are too far away to trade You the item". It is only on certain points on the ground. I am assuming that that is a trigger. I continue to click on it... but eventually it spawns the Death Squad. I am a 48th Cleric, when the Death Squad spawns, unless I am very fortunate, I am dead meat without SoW.

If someone has a trick to it... I'd sure like to hear it. If not, I will be 47th level in no time. I am so frustrated with it, I am actually considering scraping EQ all together and try another game. I need alittle help.

Read the notes under the shawl quest. It explains how to use a pet to locate his trigger. Did this last night with a friend who has a pet. Triggered the Death squads a few times, but found him for the turn in.

Get a ranger to track him for you

rangers can't track tanik, foo. you get a shaman to track for you.. man, just go to www.eqtraders.com, quests, coldain shawl quests, shawl 4. it explains the "pet trick" which will allow you to find tanik or the Squad much faster. about 1 in 10 triggers is tanik. and besides, this mob is in the hut next to garadain's - it's not the shawl quest npc.

but this isn't that mob

This description is for the injured warrior near the Ry`Gorr camp that's in the hut next to Garadain.

Triggered spawns, all of them.

Tanik is a triggered spawn near the Kael Drakkal ramp.
But, of all the possible triggered spawns, there is a 1/10 (roughly) chance that the trigger will spawn the Kromrif Death Squad.

There is a trick, however, to locating Tanik, and determining whether it will be Tanik or the Death Squad.

Get an item on your cursor, click as if you were going to drop it, when the confirmation box pops up, leave it alone... Now start clicking around. The trigger can be treated as an invisible NPC. Doing this trick I have actually opened a trade window with something called "You stumble".

You are too far away from You have to trade.
"You have been ambushed by Giants!"
(Death Squad)

You are too far away from You stumble to trade.
"You stumble across an injured warrior in the snow!"
(Tanik)
#Anonymous, Posted: Jun 18 2001 at 2:09 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Tanik Greslik is a hidden spawn near the Kael Drakkel ramp. He is linked with the 4'th coldain shawl quest. You must create for him, a potion to return to Thurgadin, as he is Injured, to do so, you need two small pieces of velium, a small brick of velium, 3 crystallized silks, and alot of pottery skill. After giving him the potion, he immediatly poofs and you have a letter to return to Loremaster Borinian (or something like that) Along with your 3'rd coldain shawl, to recieve the 4'th. I infact, know how to find his location (as it is hidden) and would be happy to share it with anyone who is interested. This can be a tough camp otherwise. If your interested in learning how to make Tanik (Who has no relation to Tain, who spawns randomly throughout the zone and spawns some nasty giants) Contact me at DrakeSinZ@aol.com.
yup

I was here aswell. A little dwarf said he needed help with some elixir. I said "help?". A few seconds later i saw about 5 giants spawn a bit away, so i ran the other way. They came down towards the dying dwarf and i just watched them stand there. I turned around and look back and they were gone. All red for a lvl39...
Rumors

I have heard rumors that if u go after the injured warrior that about 6 ice giants spawn and come after you...anyone know if this is true?
Named now?
# May 27 2001 at 10:44 PM Rating: Default
I believe this fellow's name is Tain <something-or-other> now. I got suckered into the same thing today. He was close to the bone bridge, though, so I made it out with no problems.
#Anonymous, Posted: Mar 30 2001 at 2:14 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Yes if you talk to him
RE: Rumors
# Mar 09 2001 at 2:28 AM Rating: Default
That is very true.. I talked to him and he asked for my help.. Then I when I said yes a 45 named giant and about 5 others came after me
close by is enough

Actually being close by the injured warrior seems to be enough to trigger the Kromrif Death Squad ( actual name !). Happened to me twice when I passed by the Kael Drakkal gate ( slightly south of the ramp ) and had "a injured warrior" on my track list. Both times the Death Squad popped and went after me, without me even sighting the warrior, ebenm less talking to him.... Nasty buggers, the hit for around 130 with doubles and bash for up to 63. Second time i was lucky to be in Greater wolfform and made a very bnnarrow escape to GD zone... Was 35th level druid back then

Its not being close to the warrior that spawns the KDS(Kromif Death Squad) its a sety trap by Kael Drakkel. I believe if you trip it either the squad or some named guy(not a giant) spawns.
