Strategy Edit

Note: Mercs are not allowed in this zone. You cannot spawn them in-zone, and any mercs in the group will be inactive (but still listed).

Quarry , Cobble , and Rock

• This fight begins with 3 nameds, Quarry, Cobble, and Rock, spread throughout the room in a linked encounter. As you kill each of them, they begin to merge until they finally combine into one massive creature, Quarry Cobble Rock .

Waterlogged Elemental Lord

• After clearing the water of all adds, make sure that everyone in the group has some sort of water breathing ability. The Elemental Lord will periodically teleport players to different places in the water, and will cast a debuff on everyone that makes them walk on the bottom of the water and causes everyone to be slowed.

Slam Crushingfoot

• One of the funniest mobs in EQ2. Slam Crushingfoot is only a teenage elemental and as such doesn't take well to being hit by a group of mature adventurers. He will throw tantrums at regular intervals, trampling heavily away around the lift platform, immune to all damage. Focus instead on the couple of unlinked adds that will join the fight at these times. The tank should aggro the adds (and Slam when he comes back) and switch back to the named when they are dead. Around 15% health, Slam will get into such a state of fury that he smashes the platform, causing your group and himself to crash at the bottom of the shaft, unless you have some way of breaking the fall. Once dead, you can loot the chest at the top of the elevator, and free the dirge pet at the bottom.

The Sentinel of Stone and The Sentinel of Earth

• Clear the room first of the worshipping adds by pet pulling. Do not enter the room yet.
• The Sentinels will both become aggro and attack you as soon as you enter the room.

Crag

• Have a group member with high damage and high health/mitigation cast the Guardian pet. The Guard's aggro stacks with the caster. Pull the adds away from the namer, or some massive aoes (both damage and power drain) happen. The adds don't hit hard, either a second healer or the group member with the templar pet can heal whoever tanks the adds.

Corrupted Guardian of the Seal

• This is an epic x2 named, so prepare for a long fight. If you don't want to spend 30 minutes killing this mob, be sure to bring along the NPC pets from each of the various cages around the zone. Any pets that aren't acquired will buff the epic. Flurry, summoning abilities, healing abilities, and so on are available to the epic, be sure to get all pets in the zone. (if running without a full group, I recommend at least taking the dirge (gives the epic the ability to rez), and the templar (gives epic healing), the guardian gives the epic a 75% damage protection so that is a good choice too if you have the people))
