Hiya folks, just some info for the Macintosh peeps: Was camping these last night, duoing with myself (54 pally) and a 65 beast. Most conned DB or white to me. these were stunnable and a lot easier than some of the others, which were yellow or red, and "immune to the stun componenet."

In the 1.5 hours we camped, we got two belts, a stone idol and a vah shir claw earring. not bad at all.

to cut down on their healing later in the fight, i took pre-emptive action. i repeatedly cast thunder of karana on them early in the battle to reduce their mana pool. by the time they were hurt badly enough to try to heal, they had little mana left, and the emote would only be "a %t feels much better," meaning only a Gheal or a Sup heal got off - NOT a complete. hope this helps, denizens of al'kabor and anyone else who happens along here. )

From what I can tell, the ones that are blue at 56 are all clerics, and aren't too hard to dispatch. The yellow conning ones at 56 are all Shadowknights, who open with a 951 HT and have lots of life. These are slightly more difficult to kill.

Was soloing in ME with my 61 Druid and took one of these on near AR zone. As long as resists are up they arent too tough. He got of one shot that hit me for 700+ but only hits for 50-75 in melee range and I resisted all Fear attempts. Can be snared, rooted and didn't resist any swarms. All that being said it was lousy exp and I used almost 4 bars of mana between DoTs and Wildfire.

I am a 64 druid and I can easily solo these, with a high magic resistant they just blast away and I resist most and by the time he is almost dead he has no mana left to heal. If its the SK even easier. My younger guildies sure were happy when I got a bunch of them belts. The corpses don't rot for 30 minutes so they have lots of time to get there. The SK ones HT for 911 or so if I remember correct, but if you don't let them get close enough to use it, it doesn't matter. Root, snare, dot...
They also have big agro range and their SK clonies(xi guys) come to help them from a fairly big range.

Easy solo at 57 as well ...

I was trying to run my 32 Druid friend to UP to get some rotting elysian gears and his cammo dropped before we got to the UP zone. 4-Arms was there and stunned him then nailed him for 925 HP or so ... died instantly.

About 30 minutes later my Cleric friend came back online and I got a rez for my friend. While waiting on his rez effects to wear off I decided to try my hand at 4-Arms.

I had KEI and that is all (only had FT1 at that time too). For buffs, throw a Skin on if you don't have Virtue or anything, as well as a Magic Resist, Fire Resist, and regen.

For fighting, the best thing to do is Harmony the adds (most often the Xi Xaus) on the sides of the archway to UP, then snare 4-Arms. Drop a DoT on him if you can, then back up until he is well past the archway and root him. Keep chain-DoTting him and rooting as you can & need. He has a lot of HP, so it will take a while, but he does not break too often at 57 and has only cast Boiling Blood and Dooming Darkness on me.

I resists Dooming every time with a 107 MR, but Boil Blood usually lands. This is why you want the regen buff. I normally do not drop below 90% health unless he breaks roots and hits be before I can re-root. He *will* HT for 900+ sometimes, so beware, but I have not had that happen the last 4 times I have dropped him.

If you get adds, zone and come back! The adds are far worse than he is, as they cast more often...though they are lower level (go figure).

Hope this helps!

Just wanted to note, also, that the spawn at the UP line in ME has been a level 57 for the last 4 kills... Also, I just dropped him with no KEI, and lost my NatureSkin about half-way through. I was lucky I had the regen that I said to do in last post too, he got too close and did an HT on me, lol

I have FT4 and a Mana Presevation 3 item as well as a Burning Affliction 3 item if this helps people out. I only used Winged Death and Breath or Ro as well as quite a bit of damage from my 10 or so roots (they seem to know when you have low mana or no KEI, hehehe).

I'm not sure you want to hear this but here goes. My guild hunts here regularly and these drop the belt (which is what most want) very rarely. After killing around 25 of these we finally got a belt. This was at the fort location not the Akheva zone, although the same mobs are there too and most likely drop belt also. Good hunting.

We camped the ruins in ME for about 3-4 hours, 2 belts dropped, one earring, 2 gauntlets (rotted unfortunately) and 4 spells. Was also pulling some things other than xin thall and picked up 2 medallions of life, shaded dagger, shaded shield, centi LS, a gorunga club that rotted and 4 spells (2 paladin, inc Healing Wave and one other, Falcon's Eye-Ranger, think name is correct, and SOE-druid).

Hope that helps. I was pulling steady nearly the entire time, had a few med breaks. We were pulling from that "horn of plenty" as well as the gorunga seer area and everything in between. Group was 58 BST, 58 shaman, 56 cleric (later a 54 cleric), and 3 monks (55, 55 and 51), (I was one of the 55. BST tanked, did a good job (any of us could after slow).

Been douing and grouping by zone to Akheva for the past few days. Saw belt drop twice and numerous medallions. This is the best spot in the zone for grouping or duoing, getting hella exp and some neat items. Plus these mobs are a soft if you have a decent chanter. My hubby, a 53 enchanter, can solo these by charming. Only hazard is HT from the SK and the occational complete heal from the clerks if your stun isn't effective. Have fun! :)

I was trained from DSP, and decided to check out the zone. After I was about to leave, this ***** comes up to the DSP zone and nukes me for 514. To top it off, it/her/his's little friend "Xi Xiau", hit me for 145, killing me instantly Smiley: banghead

. Not much to say, but does anyone know what "Tesar Tekara" means in Akhevan? It said it just as it nuked me.

I now, officially, hate ME.

These things give really good duo exp. Im a 60 shaman and i duo with a 58monk. Like 1/2 blue in aa depending on the level of the mob. UP zoneline works really nice to safely pull. Loots are really rare thouhg /sigh.

There are several static spots (3 Near zone to Akheva, 1 near zone to Umbral), however the best place to find these are in the alien "city." The "safe" way to get to this city is to zone in from dawnshroud and make an immidiate left along the wall. Without invis there's still a chance you'll pick up some Goranga agro's as you run. You'll find a large white wall. Follow the wall out a way and you'll find some holes that allow access into the city area.

Best place to camp in the city we've found is in the corner at the edge of a very large white stone circle.

Be aware that these guys can be packed pretty tight in places here, are hard to mez and most are clerics or SK's. Get three or 4 and you'll find multiple HT's and mobs C-healing each other.

They occasionally drop mid level Luclin spells (seem to get a LOT of ranger/sk spells from them).

Good post on location. Make sure you bring a Monk or better yet a necro for pulling this way you wont get the adds.

I am a 56 necro and fight here with my 55 druid freind. If there are any XI Xaui around charm them and let them start the battle make sure you get a dot in on your target and when your pet dies run and FD the adds will give chase. Just wait till they start movin away pop up and run away and FD again. Eventually the adds will get fsr enough away that they wont be givin chase when you pop up.

The best thing about using a charmed pet against them is that by the time they kill your charmed pet they are out of mana and have none for casting there nukes on you which are real bad.

Trust me these guys can nuke. I have read someone gettin hit for 920 I have never been hit for that much but get hit regularly for mid 700's.

Get a virtue before you go and put on your manaskin as well as any and all buffs you can get.
