Skyshrine: The Unscrewing

[Aeolwind]

OK! This train wreck of a zone is heading back to the path of righteousness. A few problems persist as their were no logs generated of this zone during Velious. SO! To get things more normal I need some help.

Keep in mind, Skyshrine is full of 'named' mobs. Each mob only spawned in 1 place with a scant few exceptions: a_gargoyle_guard, a_shambling_cube, etc. We've dwindled it from several hundred down to less than 150 where it should be. Luckily, they just copied the new mobs onto the same spawn points as the old mobs. So we just had to remove the new and the problem fixed itself. However, there are some bad holes.

DONE[*]I have 200 copies of Laoch Yilnor scattered all over the freaking zone. What is his home loc? Same goes for at least 2 Fe'Dhars. Era correct locs for anything is super useful.
DONE[*]Armor quest mobs! What was their order around the room? Anyone giving me locs in the library will be hanged.
DONE[*]Wurms! More photos would help. I've placed some off screenshots, few more to go.

• Spell merchants & merchants in general! All merchants inventory?
• Skyshrine drops. I never hunted here, I was ally COV for 90% of Velious, still am iirc even after a LONG haul hunting in north. From this loot table http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/npc.html?id=6190, how much is Classic Velious Era correct? Same goes for Guardian and Sentry armor.
• Any Era Correct combat parses or logs? I'm pretty sure the developers haven't touched HP in Skyshrine in a long, long time. But I'd rather be sure.
• Faction I remember.
• 'Old Yelinak' vs 'New Yelinak', I'd like some feedback from those of you that fought him early in Velious.
• Wizard Gate spells to Velious? Where were they?

Updated list with complete stuff. New questions added at end of thread.

YAY! Skyshrine! One of my fav zones from EQ [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] I'll see if I can hunt down any info when I get home today.

[Aeolwind]

Been using the map. But it is missing names. There are almost 30 Fe'Dhar's and 20ish Laoch's to find the correct homes for.

• Spell merchants & merchants in general! What were the 5 spell merchants in the 'spell room' and what were their inventories? Also, what was their order around the room or locs? All merchants inventory?
• Actually, ANY and ALL era accurate spawn information in this zone (even screenshots, I found several homes based on Alla screenshots) would help.
• Wurms! More photos would help. I've placed some off screenshots, few more to go.

Some of those old YouTube "nostalgia" videos might be helpful to spot mob locations in SS.

Using information from mqemulator.net Laoch Yilnor has a location of 1884, 1970.

Combine that with the anecdote from Dec. 2000 http://tunare.yuku.com/forum/viewtopic/id/2370 The picture links no longer work (not even on archive.org), but he describes the room before Yelinak with the Laoch Chief:

The middle one is Laoch Chief Seti. His guards are only mobs gave me reponse after hail. Like this: Laoch Yilnor ignore your greeting.

Using this map, Laoch Chief is the dark purple dot in the center on the west side of room 5, the above loc from eqemulator puts Laoch Yilnor just to the north of Chief or to his left which happens to coincide with that light pink marker nicely.
