Lcea Katta  

587,000 hit point

I was farming her for many months on Al`Kabor for her mask. I got AHR's mask (which is far better) before Katta's ever dropped.

Group was 65 RNG, 65 ENC, 65 CLR and 65 WAR.

65 RNG 500 AA - VT geared 5k HP unbuffed used 2 hander to avoid pulling aggro.
65 WAR max AA - EP geared 7k HP unbuffed, used pet proc weapon and 20/17 wep with 150DD proc.
65 ENC 120 AA - FT6 in mostly in Ornate PoP gear with some Velious stuff and I put on detrimental focus.
65 CLR 350AA - Max FT, Ornate PoP geared with Aid Grimel earrings, Halls of TEsting quest gear and some VT rot loot.

ENC would pacify Lcea's guards and pull her to ZI where RNG, CLR and WAR were waiting. WAR and RNG were fully debuffed.

During the pull, Katta takes some crazy pathing. I used this to my advantage to cast slow/cripple/tash on her so she'd arrive in camp fully debuffed.

ENC would then zone out, letting Katta stand in position for awhile and then slowly walk back to her castle. During this time the ENC would zoneback, call and buff pet.

WAR would then tag Katta (she was usually near the entrance to her castle at this time) and run back to the corner by the ZI. I popped evasive just before she hit, attacked with RNG and sent in the chanter pet. Do not use charmed pets here. Nearly all the guards respawn every 30 min or so and you will lose your pet.

To deal with the unresistable charm, I followed the same strat that "manaburn" posted below, with one exception: I let the RNG take the hit while my WAR was charmed instead of the pet. I found out that if the chanter pet got charmed, I usually could not regain control of it and invis wouldn't kill it. I used the pet as DPS and as a very last line of defense against cleric summon if both tanks got charmed.

This strat worked really well. I used pillage enchantment and recant magic so I always had a dispell gem hot. With casting haste focus, they cast in 1.6 sec and 2.1 sec.

I also had a Nullify Magic loaded on the Cleric. When the ENC was reslowing and crippling, I would use the cleric to spam the MT with dispell, just in case he got hit while the ENC (my primary dispeller) was casting debuffs.

The biggest killer on this is when Lcea procs multiple charms in a row. If you aren't quick on dispelling the tanks, she can get both tanks and the pet in 4 or 5 seconds on lucky procs. Once she has all tanks, she will summon the cleric and it's game over.

Keep the tanks constantly dispelled and it's a sure win, but a long fight. About 45 minutes each time using elemental DPS weapons on the tanks.

Mana was never an issue but did dip down a bit on the CLR when the RNG had to tank for longer periods due to back to back charms.

Drop Infoz:

Kills: 16
Amulet of the Pure Heart: 14
Katta Staff of Peace: 11
Girdle of Magnificence: 7
Orb of Luclinite: 16
She also dropped a ruby crown, earring or higher value gem each time.

Edit: Repop timer seemed to be 5 days 6 hours +/- 6 hours

After a few attempts in the past when we were just 60 we decided to revisit this mob with 7 people 65+.

69 bard (me)
68 dru
68 clr
66 pal
66 shm
67 nec
65 ench

Was a flawless fight until she crossed 30%. Me and the ench charmed each of her guards and dru DC'd a wolf ...tank was only charmed a few times and even then it only lasted a few seconds. I would tank while she let it get dispelled. She hit in the 800's btw. FYI.

When she crossed 30% it all changed...she started charming like madness...charming half of us in a matter of seconds. Cleric was charmed...started CH'n lcea..pally was mowing the rest of us down lol. Was crazy. Anyways we managed to hold our ground til she hit 7% and the zone died....for about 1 min we all lagged completly out and thought we were LDing. Came back and it had went to ****...she regened some health and raped us. Goin in for attempt 2.


Ok rezzed up and tried again...this time with a boxed 70 wiz and the knowledge that keeping her walled helps to slow the amount of procs shegets off for some odd reason. So if ya want to do this mob get a high aggro set of tanks to keep her in the wall and you will do fine.

Dropped the necklace belt and orb.

does the visor still drop? havnt seen one of these linked in some time

Went in with 17 person raid. Most the tanks were totally unbuffed. Had one person on debuffing charm on tanks. SA was 65 Pal who chain casted stun the whole fight. I was playing my 64 necro and twiched him thru almost the whole fight. Around 10pct she got a few charms off and I switched to nukes until tanks got debuffed. Fight took about 15 min. If she has only 500k hps then she regens like crazy I would guess more like 100k hps. Dropped Amulet, Orb, and Peace Staff which I won by default.

Ok guys, this girl can be stuned right? So im thinking a BL could solo this with the right buffs(C3/Po9/Fo7/Kazaad) and the warder with mucho dex buffs for extra stun. Ima try this soon and get back to you, cuz if its soloable i would love to camp a twink right on her, kill her and get that mask on a lvl 1 war /drool
