Plate vs Chain error

Note the error: An Ancient Chestguard Mold is CHAIN, not plate, says it's for plate classes. Likewise An Ancient Chestplate Mold says it's for CHAIN classes, but it's not. Is this not obvious?

as of the week mentioned, spawn rate for TF dropped to about
once every FOUR HOURS. I heard a similar story for Son of Severan.
Guess too many people were getting well equipped too fast.
This is now like camping one of the four wings in BoT.
Tarnuk and Gaukr are now buddies. /rude.

I've also had Son of Severan spawn back to back 3 times. Spawned twice this morning in a couple of hours. So I think it is just the luck of the dice on how often you will get these named to spawn.

Tarnuk spawned twice in a row this morning on the Stromm server.
About 20 minutes apart.

My guild has killed him many times and once (when no tank was available) with a wizard kiting him. Snare, MB, and fast nukes. I cast Serpent Skin on the wizzy just before tag and the cleric and I laid on fast heals. We had a monk and another druid on DPS. We used the same technique on Chillbones too; I assume we could do that with the others that summon as well...

Out of 12 kills he dropped 4 plate, 4 leather, 2 chain, and 2 silk. I saw the necklace drop a few times and i believe the "Heart of Ice" ring as well (could be mistaken but I am almost positive).

Set up just above the hill from the adolecent cave bear pond.

My group set up on top of the hill and very hard right from where the path comes up.

After killing a bit clearing a save spot, sent the bard down to the lake to await Tarnuk Farwalker. When he turned to go up the hill, his cronies hang back a bit, bard tagged then and ran them around.

Once Tarnuk Farwalker was all alone on top of the glacier he was tagged by our tank, and torn up. This is rinse and repeatable, as it was done many times in the evening.

Remember when pulling Tarnuk Farwalker off to the side up top get far away from his normal path as his cronies have a large assist radius on him, wich is odd compared to his relatively small assist radius to them.

If bard/monk/sk drops agro too soon, his cronies will run back to his side and ruin the drill.

Once this guy is slowed he hits like trash mobs in the zone.

Pretty weak, hits for maybe 2.6k max. 2 guards follow him that can be split easily (even without a monk, bard, CC, etc...) if you know what you're doing. Has about 1.5 times the HP of Lowfire, though I'm not sure what that is, just basing it on the time it takes to kill.

Also, his PH can be a dire wolf, or an elder driftwolf that wanders along his same path. He and his PHs spawn in the orc fort and wander out of it to the SW tip of the raised glacier, just north of the adolescent cave bears.

He has two adds, which usually need to be kited, can be mezzed, and do not summon. He sometimes comes alone and his 2 adds become static for some reason. He, himself, summons, does not AE, ramp or flurry.

This mob is said to roam down from the orc camp b/t the bear cave and the igloos. He is an orc model.

Does anyone know if he can be kited, and how hard he hits, flurries, ramps, etc. Thanks

You have to get the task from the armor quest NPC then turn the mold + scrap metals in.

[Sarnath Creed]

Doing This (http://eqbeastiary.allakhazam.com/search.shtml?id=22709) May have been a little easier on the page length..

Tarknuk can hit for upwards of ~2200. The 2 adds he has can easily be kited around.

I have killed him several times with groups, and I usually kite the 2 adds around while the rest of the group kills Tarnuk. 70% of the time, I can kill the 2 adds before the group kills Tarnuk.

He isnt all *that* hard. If you get a good cleric and a good tank you can take him.

[GnekroeGnomicon]

I have killed him several times with groups, and I usually kite the 2 adds around while the rest of the group kills Tarnuk. 70% of the time, I can kill the 2 adds before the group kills Tarnuk.You can also split Tarnuk from his guards -- he will occassionally run ahead of his guards if you agro him at these moments he will come single.

[Nizerns]

I camped this guy for about 4 hours. It takes him 21 minutes. (I started looking for him at 20) from his death to where he is inrange of your camp at bear caves.

His PH is a wolf. We would kill him/ his ph, then kill bears for 18/19 mins. Med to full and wait for his ph.

It was okay xp, I got an aa, every 30 mins or so at 75, + there are several solo pull mobs, I wouldn't recommend a necro pulling the cave unless their uber as we had necro's die every time they tried. (often better to let tank pull and have necro kite any adds)

I would tend to disagree with the necro not pulling the caves. It does get dicey at times though. I am in no way uber, 5.8k hps/8.3k mana, but normally my groups have me pull the caves. The only times I have died is when I took a wrong turn trying to get out of the cave or one of the entrance mobs popped on my head.

It is tricky and I would say not for the faint of heart but a necro can pull the caves.

[Winmancer]

The caves are definitely not easy to pull, but a tank class pulling could be really bad. You can easily get 4 adds pulling out of the caves. Even a necro is going to have a hard time cleaning that mess up.
