Shissar Assassin  

I was nostalgically running through the temple, and killed the entire room. Imagine my surprise when I looted a mask off the shissar assassin! Lucky day, pure and simple. Doubt it would ever drop for me again.

You can illusion clicky through the door leading up to his room.

Ive Been PLing a few toons in this area for the past week and a half and killed the PH over 30 times and have yet to see him spawn... Ive had some bad luck with the RNG before but this is silly. Im glad Im not actually there for the mask or else Id be pulling my hair out.

Update: Ok so the first 30 kills was an estimate.... very close based on xp earned but an estimate... the last 37 kills was an exact figure! It took me very nearly 67 kills before he showed his face, and then he dropped the gloves.

PS He cant be slowed.

On the way to the Assassin Room (Hallway behind the first locked door)

Shissar broodlings (A trap) cannot traget . Resist poisen with 400 resist only 9 points a tic. However also processes a short stun and near 3 light blue to level 70 necro

Loc - 100 , + 311 , - 2.7

Fell (Axiom)

From the ZI go ahead on the first intersection go on the left, when u find the wall go on your left you enter in a small room with 3 mobs, the door in the middle of the front wall it's what you search for. U have 2 options to pass it: 1) Rogue/Bard with 210 picklock. 2) Levitate on one of the 2 pilars on the both side of the door (shrink yourself, don't work if you aren't shrinked) climb one of them, then run toward the door, once above the door duck and look down. You are in. U find 2 mobs on your way. Where the first mob are there is a trap, i think it is unresistable, got it on my 80 cleric cured with Remove Course rank 9 (but i think can be cured with a lot less). Once passed the 2 mobs u find a wall turn on ur right, up the ramp and u find the room you are search for. The room have a ledge and a pit, on the ledge there are 4 mobs, in each corner (no need to clear them), in the pit there are 8 mobs, 2 in each corner. The Assasin spawns at the opposite side of the pit, to the left of the ramp. With the cleric used "Vow of Victory", "Ward of Requital" and hammer pet and he dropped easy. Have the mask for my bard on the 7th spawn in 3 days (16 hours of camping). Hope it helps someone =)

forgot to post this... the trap doesnt seem to that bad anymore... my rog (1.8k hp) got stunned and hit for 10 hp but no dot...

i spent 6 hrs camping this guy... 7 assassians no drop but other named in the area... Commander Zazuzh popped a few times and he drops a horse (i never got it) also just incase anyone is wondering... the floating over the door and sinking/crouching thing still does work... i got my lvl 76 mnk in (12.4k hp 2.3k ac) in there by doing that so i could get my mask for my rog (lvl 41)

I have cleared this area 8x in a row and have yet to even see this mob show his face. Is there some PH or spawning mechanism that nobody has mentioned? I can't believe that after 8x clearing the room that he still hasn't spawned.

Any info greatly appreciciated,
Yofhrh

whats the PH's name?

been trying to find it just cant... maybe because i have only been in the zone a couple times lol

Any one think a 67 bard solo can take him magelo is below

Got mask today after 4th assassin. got the lockpick gloves and the 3% does stack with the 2% from mechanized lockpicks.

Bro that secret worked awsome I now have a lvl 45 rogue with the mask. One problem is it requires lvl 46 to click it :) I'll just have to play him a bit more :).

ps he was up when I got there didn;t drop mask dropped the +3% lockpick gloves had 3 Ph's he spawned again and dropped mask.

Blue to my 55 bard, so he's probably about 50 - 55 or at least 54 =)


Got a mask on the second spawn...just needing another now (jynxing myself! >.<)

Been here two hours and ain't even seen this guy. Last time we were here 6 hours, popped 4 times, no mask. So frustrating! I really want my tail *grin* Haven't seen a Comm or the Disciple either, but have gotten plenty of elites, which I name as "mini-nameds" and 2 Comm's. No Zazuzh's key though, which bugs 'cause I already have Zherozsh's.

Getting through the door was pretty easy, using the summon through the wall trick. If you have more than just yourself though, it becomes kind of a pain to get everyone else summoned through. If it's more than just you, bring a rogue, at least for the door. =)

For the record, bards can sense and disarm any trap in Ssra, including the ones up by AL and HP. I've also had good luck with traps in LDoN's and MPG trials. Our skill is nowhere near as high as a rogue's, but it does the job. =)

EDIT: Finally got it, almost 3 hours later. First and only pop tonight. He's not slowable which made it a pain, and he also dropped the Testament.
