I've been camping Lord Grimrot for so long I'm now max ally with Priests of Life
...without ever having done the faction quest. I do kill the putrid skeletons for faction sometimes (or I used to), but not always, and rarely more than once per PH spawn cycle.
I've killed Ghanex Drah so many times that I discovered many rare items he drops, including one that wasn't even in the wiki. (Crysknife, 4/21 piercer.) I've killed so many skeletons that I've filled multiple backpacks with bone chips. I didn't know it would be this bad when I started or I wouldn't have. I just saw the item on the Cleric wiki page and thought, neat, I'll do that. I was further fooled by a ridiculous guide on the wiki that said that if you killed the PH at certain times you had a 20% chance of the undead Grimrot popping. (Since I knew "certain times" was nonsense, I interpreted this to mean that he was probably a night spawn.) Nonetheless, the number 20% was promising, even for such a long spawn. Boy was I wrong. Here's what we know:
So if the PH is killed instantly every time he pops, that means we should see the undead Grimrot an average of 4.5 times per month. Per month. Given that it's not possible to kill the PH instantly every time, and it sometimes sits up for hours in the wee hours of the morning, I think we can realistically drop that estimate to 4 times at most. And that still assumes people are paying attention to the camp and killing the PH as much as they are able, not simply doing it when they pass by. I should stop. It's not worth it. If it had 100 hps/mana it wouldn't be worth it. It's more a matter of principle now. I've sank two and a half weeks into it, killing every spawn for 16+ hours a day. If I stop now that time's just wasted. And it will nag at me, probably for the rest of my EQ career. | ||

I GOT HIM
HE EXISTS OH MY GOD IT'S FINALLY OVER He spawned at 4am game time, so I unfortunately can't confirm that he's not a night spawn. If someone could confirm that that they saw him spawn in the daytime, with your own eyes, that would be great. This mob is bad enough that it would be nice to have a definitive information source for him. (And this is about the undead Grimrot, by the way, in case that wasn't clear. I saw the live Grimrot 8 times throughout the camp. I'd edit the post but you can't edit posts here.) | ||
