Re: Veeshans Peek revamped on test?
What pieces do you lack Nocte?
I am having the biggest headache of a time with the Trakanon's Teeth zone piece. I've camped that fool (on one of my mains) for around 17 hours spread out now and no flipping sight of him yet.
Just curious if that piece has you bottlenecked as well - or if I'm just snakebit on that final drop. =)
Re: Veeshans Peek revamped on test?
I'm down to the Trak Tooth (Honestly haven't approached this one yet) and the Whatchamahoozits Remains in KC. I soloed it to this point, now I need other warm bodies to help which has kind of slowed my progress . A guild group should help me get the KC piece okay, after that it's just getting into a Trak raid.
Pained Soul just popped for me two or three weeks ago. A monk and I were kind of competing for the piece for awhile. He beat me to spawn point some nights, I beat him others. Not much of a bottleneck, but the spawn does suck on its frequency. I probably dedicated a good 7 nights on this bastage before I got him to pop.
Edit: And I'm only doing this for obsessive compulsive reasons. I hate not being able to get into older world zones. I'm a sicko that way.Edited by: Nocte at: 4/20/04 12:26 pm

Re: Veeshans Peek revamped on test?
Hmm, vpeak is no inner Acrylia, but I think I'll wait and see if they unlock the zone before finishing the key anyway. I've only needed the KC piece for like two years now.
Re: Veeshans Peek revamped on test?
My enchanter friend tells me VP quest is easy for chanters. Charm something, sit it at spawn, and go afk for a few hours.
Re: Veeshans Peek revamped on test?
The Pained Soul spawn in Trak's Teeth is essentially a 1 in 20 chance of spawning. I had to camp that spot for days (2 hours at a time) before he spawned. That was the longest I had to wait for any of the spawns for the VP key.
Related to that quest:
Can a rogue easily hide/sneak their way down to Niblek (the rat man in Chardok) for the turn-in to get his piece of the medallion? I've yet to try this but if someone has done it please let us know.
My other bottleneck is getting enough ppl together to go after Trakanon himself for his tooth.

yes that sounds like a new dragon ability for next expansion. oh wai...
I hope its a cooler upgrade than "SLOWER RESPAWNS AND VELIOUS QUALITY DROPPABLE LOOT AND GATE OUT FOR THE WIN". VP is my favorite zone aesthetically, and it has so much potential, but it needs a lot of work from current form.
PLEASE DO NOT REMOVE KEY QUEST, if VP goes the way of PoM I will cry baby jebus.

If you have SoS, then yes, easily.

Even if they just did that it would be a big improvement. They need to be able to gate out, or just have a clicky out at the damn entrance. But it looks like the mobs are getting revamped as well, so there will no doubt be a loot upgrade.
Looking forward to it.

Re: Veeshans Peek revamped on test?
You've been able gate/port out of VP for quite a while now...

Re: Veeshans Peek revamped on test?
My comment was based on the fact that that was what they did for the last revamp to VP ...

Hmm, how DID you get out then? From what has been said, it sounds like there was no click out, and you said gate/port was changed.. just curious.
Re: Veeshans Peek revamped on test?
There was an actual zone-out, but no-one ever used it. Everyone left a corpse before the raid, then did a multiple ress to get out of the zone.
Re: Veeshans Peek revamped on test?
Yeah, theres actually a couple of zoneouts, but they are all in dragon lairs.

Re: Veeshans Peek revamped on test?
Verix Kylox in KC can be a huge pain in the behind. I spent close to 40 rl hours on him (I was very unlucky). One wierd thing I have noticed after helping others camp their keys is he pretty regularly spawns back to back when he finally does spawn. It could just be a coincidence but 5 people I had regularly been camping him with all had him spawn back to back too.
Anyways, it would be great to see this zone even further revamped, it is an incredibly fun place to go play around. The room with the tapestries of Veeshan colliding with the planet is worth all of the effort for the key alone imo.
Re: Veeshans Peek revamped on test?
I just went in and camped Verix Kylox after reading this thread (he is one of 3 parts I still need). It took me about 4 hours to get him maybe alittle less, and I soloed him without any real trouble. I left right away though. Can't say if he back to back spawned.

One group of good level 65 chars can take him down pretty easy.
We tried once but the mage got aggro from an add as he was coth the tank bank.
We had him to 17%.

Re: Veeshans Peek revamped on test?
First.. VP takes you to PoSky...
Then NToV takes you to PoM..
10 zones takes you to VT.. which takes you to almost being a god in your own mind until the actual gods show up in a form that is less than the form of their former gimp god self.
Nowhere takes you to PoHate
Where did GD taking you to PoM and revamp of PoM fit into all of this?
