/loc: 3741, 822, 51

faction hits:

Darkpaws of Jaggedpine -20
Residents of Jaggedpine +20
Jaggedpine Treefolk +10
Protectors of the Pine +10

dropped: Head of Barducks Darkpaw, Whilom Treant Fossil

Dropped consigned bite of the shissar viii
Also hits a level 63 for 228 and yes a schitte load of HPs

a hard ob, soloed with my 65 ranja, snare pulled, got no adds, rooted and started to use bow, ran and attacked for a bit, when proc slow landed switched weapon and when got low backed off and healed, dropped the 15 save fire thing, and heal and a pearl necklace

i say he is the equivilant to a Teir one PoP mob, like in Plane of Innovation

I used to charm kite with this guy as my pet. Had to have a dru/rang with me to snare him when charm broke. But I'll tell ya something. He does so much damage that all other mobs took about 20-30 seconds each. We used to go around the whole room, and I mean the big area, not just his little cove in the back. I could use this guy to clean out the entire area before respawn. If you're looking for faction before you kill him, get a good charm kiting chanter to go in with you and have him kill everything in site. You can't get faction faster than that, IMHO. Did my badge of nobility on Venril Sethir. Trying to do it now on Quellious with a necro, gonna miss the charm kiting. Oh ya, as a pet, he NEVER dropped below 85% health, and that was only when I had 4 or 5 adds. His average after 10 mobs was 96%+ health. I figure he's got about 20k HP from when we finally killed him out of boredom and necessity. Got the sword so many times, common drop.

Have fun.

I soloed this guy with my 62 Beastie yesterday. He was tough. I was at 9% health when he finally went down.

He dropped the Sabertooth and his head.

He is an essential part of the 5th Qeynos Badge Quest (which is not listed here by Allakhazam at the time of this post).

He is "spawned" in that quest and I suspect that is the only time he drops his head.

tried to solo him as a 65 SK. got beat down hard. next time ill bring a healer or slower.

I soloed this guy with my lvl 65 Mage. He's a tough cookie, I can tell you.

I have my DPoC focused Air Pet equipped with mage pet-toys. The other Gnolls are green to me and are easily soloable by my pet. This guy does a lot of damage fast. I had to pop my Host of Elements, Servant of Ro and then alternate healing my pet and nuking the Gnoll. In the end, he went down with me at 30% mana and my pet near death.

I was hoping to get the sword for a SK alt I am working on, but alas he dropped only his head. I guess I'll be going back for another round.

The Gnolls that swarm the town after this guy goes down are not too difficult to kill, but too many to be soloed. I actually had my backstabbing waterpet chasing me as I aggroed a bunch of gnolls and ran wide circles around the town with about 20 of the Gnolls/Assassins chasing me. LOL. There were lots of dead Gnolls and I was barely scratched, but the Gnolls eventually killed the hamlet off.

He was a tough solo for me. I never expected a gnoll to put the beat down on one such as I so quickly.

Hitting for up to 220 and FAST.

Then I realized there was an oracle near him so I rooted him.

I then healed up some and started to Nullify Magic on him. Since my root did not get dispelled right away, obviously he was buffed.

Even after complete dispell he hits just as fast (which is on the fast side like LoY mobs) as the other gnolls.

He had taken me down to 30% in under a minute WITH Supernal Cleansing running.

I have 246 AA presently, all def aa, hp aa maxed.

I had to root and heal while my Narandi's Lance worked its magic while he was rooted.

I switched to my Lance of Thunder while it was active.

All I got was his head, some prim/sec/range +15 FR item (Whilom Treant Fossil) and a gnoll canine.

PFFF!!!

Droped Emerald Ring last time we killed him, probably drops other gems as well :)

is that a pic of him holding the sabertooth?

Can 55 BL with kei and virtue solo this guy or will my PET BE WASTED=)

took him out of his misery today solo with my 58ranger (had KEI+FOS+STA+Aego so around 4900HP).
I invised all the way to him (seems like noone but him see invis) and realised that there was enough space behind him to bow kite then finish off.

resisted roots a few times, i got him to 40% with Arrow+dots, then went for the easy kill, until i realised that he hits for about 220, slow him with swarmy when i was at around 60%, rooted again, healed a couple of times then finished him off.
he has real big hp and hits hard (felt like killing a dragon=))) maybe around 20k hp. he walks real slow and when slowed, is a piece of cake.
