Pathing WK Werewolves

Ennewi · #1 05-03-2018, 02:04 PM

Back in 2000 I distinctly remember having to be vigilant, always on the look out at night whenever entering/exiting West Karana via Qeynos Hills, because of werewolves. In fact, it wasn't uncommon for higher level players to camp the zoneline spawn, buffing the random low-level passerby. Buffs or no buffs, the area was deemed unsafe at night through word of mouth. Low level players who sat to med/heal up in the winding pathway ravine did so at their own risk.

Posted below are (probably too) many accounts of this occurrence. Also, according to some posts, the Qeynos Hills zoneline spawn point actually had placeholders. Additionally, werewolves aggro'd other NPCs, something I don't remember seeing on blue server (but it may be in effect), whether in Kithicor, WC, WK, or NK.

On blue server there is one werewolf that paths near the first guard tower nearest to the Qeynos Hills zoneline, indicated as #4 on the wiki map, but that's as far as it goes to my knowledge. If there is a werewolf that does spawn at the Qeynos Hills zoneline, I have yet to see it, at midnight or any other night hour in-game.

The accounts below are pretty thorough. One comment even mentions the exact pathing coordinates of a werewolf's end point near the Northern Karana zoneline.

This thing spawned directly in front of me at the entrance to WK from Qeynos Hills. It was blue, I was at zoneline. What the heck.
He hits hard and fast but I managed to kill him, though it was pretty much hit for hit. Just as I was about to LoH he started to flee. Only dropped like 9 sp though.
I did get a kick out of finally being able to kill something that I spent my formative newbie levels fleeing in terror from.

friend at lvl 11 and me at lvl 8 just finished hunting in WK and were near the zoning point when all of a sudden I turn on track and see "werewolf" Next thing I know as we twist around the corner so does the werewolf, he aggroed my friend and ripped him to shreds before my friend made it 3 inches to zone I was much luckier I zoned right as he aggroed onto me.

Werewolfs, i do believe, are a max level of 25 but a minimum level of lower, they hit hard though. The ones in WK are definatly the ones to go for, and are only spotted at night on full moon. Unfortunatly they are not considered undead, which make my search (paladin) alot harder, but on many occasions a bard or person with SoW will attract one w/o knowing it and these buggers are faster than a low lvl sow, they can keep just out of range, and end up being dumped at the zone area, so if you cant go out to find them, you can find them near the zone line of WK/QH.

PS. loot anything these things drop, its all good stuff. I destroyed 2 WW Pelts w/o knowing about the Cape, and now i gotta go find summore....

I was running through WK one day. Just passing through to NK but I saw the werewolf running in front of me killing a bandit on the path. I've tangled with werewolves before (at lower lvl) so I just followed him (with a SOW) and watched him kill some stuff , couple bears, few beetles, but he kept in straight line all the way to what I thought was close to NK zone. I am was lvl 24 rogue at the time. He conned yellow. I decided to take him and had him to probably 50 hp but he hit me hard a couple times towards the end. Point being though...is that he stopped at this loc at zone area Neg 2616, Neg 15757. I just hope that helps anyone looking for quest.

just last night i was helping my friend giuma (29 troll shaman on tribunal) get to everfrost for a part of her totemic guantlets quest, and as we raced towards the wk/qh zone i spotted said werewolf standing right next to the zone. my friend and i were kind of in a hurry, so we both just zoned right past (scale of wolf on of course). however, i didn't have time to con it, and since i tend to zone much faster than giuma...curiousity overwhelmed me (lvl 37 troll shaman) and i turned around and zoned right back in. i zoned back in and he was gone, so i ran back east into wk a little more and there he was headed east on the path. he conned blue to me, so i proceeded to sow myself and then root and slow him. got my scourge off, and then root broke. he hit hard (40s-50s if memory serves) but slow thanks to tagar's insects [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] since i had on quickness i was laying into him but he was starting to really ding me. i was about to re-root and back off when giuma zoned back in. i asked her for a heal and then quickly finished the werewolf off. excited, (having never killed a werewolf before) i looted, and got a lupine runed armband! nice rare item i can twink onto my lvl 6 woodelf ranger (dargath) [You must be logged in to view images.

I was witness to a rare occurance last night.

I'm a 17th level Halfling Cleric and was scouting out Bandit Camp #3 to see how dangerous it would be for me to raise my faction with "Karana Residents." (Never hunted bandits before.) Using my racial Hide and Sneak abilities I was saved from the slaughter that was brought down upon the whole Bandit camp as a Werewolf rampaged through from the west, as if he had come froim the shops at location #2 or that general direction.

After killing everyone, he sat and howled for a moment or two and then ran off to the east. I was chatting through the TELL command with a buddy of mine telling him about the event when either a second Werewolf, or the same one, came back! I believe it was another one since it appeared from the same direction. This second one showed up just as a few of the bandit's were respawning and he made short work of them. Then, if it was a second WW, he ran off in the same direction as the first one I saw.

Not wanting to press my luck I sat down to rememorize GATE so I could make a hasty retreat. And it's a good thing that I did, for as soon as I was done rememorizing, I saw a third Werewolf (or the same one) once again coming from the original direction of west as if running from the shops at #2 charging straight at me!! I cast GATE and made it out of there just as his Snarling mug filled up my screen !!

Now, knowing that the Werewolf conned red to me and the bandits conned a mix of blue and green, figuring out that the poor bandits didn't stand a chance wasn't what shocked me. What did was the realization of when it happened. After the first werewolf left I was talking to my friend as I said, and decided to see what time of day it was as it was early morning. Typing in "/time" I learned that it was 8AM EQ time!!

I rememmber once I was strolling through kithicore, glancing around nervously becasuse i was lvl 9 at the time, when i saw a kodiac charging towards me. I turned and ran until i realized that he wan't chasing me. I turned around and saw something gray following bear, i clicked and it says werewolf. i wasn't thinking at the time, so i decided to con it, but was at bad angle, conned bear instead. i started to get closer, then wondered why that bear was hauling @ss. I click on him again, he's about 1/8 health left, by now walking, and thats when I realize that werewolf wasn't following the bear for some reason, it was CHASING it. As you know, if a kodiak can beat the snot out of a lvl 9 pally, what would something that could bring that down do? ---------------------------> Screaming and yelling all the way.

I've been taking the WK werewolf regularly.

His most common spawn time seems to be midnight, but he can spawn any time after darkness falls. I was told that sometimes another werewolf or even two will spawn when the first one is killed but I haven't seen it happen.

If he is not killed immediately he usually goes towards the bandit farm, then up to the bandit camp on the hill above it. He will kill bandits, bears lions and any players who don't run fast enough.

Both kills I got nothing more than money. 3pp+ then 1pp+. No loot otherwise. As a 24 Druid it con'd an easy blue to me.... I'm still waiting to see how the WK one cons. At least now I know the spawn area for him.. it's consistent with when I was killed at the QH zone previously... even being high up on the ridge looking down a bit out of the zone, hoping it'd keep on going, didn't matter. That hairball was right up the side and after me, so the aggro range is pretty big.

I was also doing the blessed oil quest (to raise faction to do the Aegis of Life quest) when I was medding by the tree by the path to Qeynos Hills by Brother Estle when I was jumped by a werewolf, it was around 4:00 am. I am a 35th level cleric, he was green, but still packed quite a punch. I received exp for the kill but did not drop anything. Just added my 2cp.

This may be a total coincidence but i was doing the blessed oil quest to raise my faction, im a high elf, and after i gave the oil to Brother Estle i turned to run back to Qeynos and im looking a Werewolf in the eyes, being a lvl 5 cleric i didnt last very long at all. So i got my stuff and did the quest a few more times and another time a lion was there. Like i said it might just be a coincidence but dieing a few times the same exact way has me believing it might just be a random spawn thing that happens when you do that quest......who knows??

I camp the WereWolf spawn in west Karnana in one place. At the zone entrance to Q hills the werewolf seems to spawn at either 10:00pm or 4:00am. In its place will either be a lion or one of te paladin runners.
The other place I have seen one spawn was in the west commonlands near the lake by Kithcoor. I am not sure exactly where this one spawned because we happened upon it while it was killing a Grizzly.
As for the levels. The West Karana spawn has been level 25 everytime I have killed it. The wolf is the commonlands conned white to me my bard at 19h. I was gouped with a 20th monk and we handled it with no problem.
Out of the 10 or so I have killed mostly in WK only one has dropped anything. I did get the lupine claw for the gloves which was nice. Finding Karg was a pain though [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]. Hope this helps some people.

I haven't had the pleasure of actually "seeing" the WW yet, but was sitting at the zone in WK, took a break for about 3 mins, went back to the computer and the last thing i read was "YOU have been slain by a werewolf", lol, so i guess it does spawn at the zone [You must be logged in to view images.

To date i've killed 37 werewolves, 36 in wk and on just out of luck in wc. The one in wc dropped the claw which i have since turned into guantlets. Of the other 36 i've killed at the qeynos hills zone in wk, seems to be he spawns roughly 60percent of the time. always between midnight and five am game time. So far i have looted only two lupine armbands and have yet to see the collar. Not sure his lvl but very green to me at lvl 38. Since im camping the two corrupt guards i usually try to scoot over around midnight. Most of the time theses guys are a plain waste of time but hey you just have to hope for a talon one day.

I have camped the werewolf in WK almost exclusively lately, and have killed him 20 to 25 times. He dropped loot twice a lupine armband and a pelt. I camp at the QH zone and most nights he will spawn between 9pm and 7am, other nights he either doesnt spawn at all or spawns elsewhere in the zone.

I have killed the WW in Commons about oh, 3 times, I've seen him/her spawn at the Kith zone, but only once. In West Karana I've camped repeatedly the spawn at the zone. Never got the other people speak of. NOT ONE SINGLE SPAWN DROPPED A **** THING !!!!!!!! Really ****** me off. Haven't seen the named one in Karana's though, but when I get more info, I'll post it.

I know of at least 2 spawn locations in WK. One is near the bandit farm, and the other is in the valley where the bandits spawn. I think that the wolf alternates spawns every night. I am not certain about that though. I have camped in WK for several days, killed many WW's and never found my claws.

I have noticed a disturbing trend with the werewolf spawn in Western Karana. It appears right at the zone line between WK and the Qeynos hills, meaning the lower levels part of the zone. So be warned. It also kills a lot of NPCs and runs strait down the path to tower 2. So watch out as most are not high enough levels to take it.

My first Werewolf encounter was as a lvl 14 Mage in December 1999 at the Derv camp in West Commons, a Werewolf attacked me a 2 other newbies. Our lvl 16 Warrior helped us kill it. Man what a fight. I recall when they would "re-pop" a zone and announce it, when you were hunting in that zone i think the mobs spawn cycles would start over. From what i recall in March 2000 this happened in South Karana at the spires, after the re-pop announcement we got attacked by a werewolf. I had no idea at the time that werewolves lived in SK. My last encouncter with a Werewolf was when i just turned lvl 24 and I travelled around Norrath killing everything i could that night. I recall running into TWO yellow conned Werewolves in close proximity in West Karana. I had never heard of TWO of them travelling together. I singled kited both of them and I thought I was such a tough guy [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Level 5 - 8:
Lions, Wolves & Bears. Young Lions, Brown Bears and the like are all great experience at these levels. If soloing stay just out of the guards "help" radius. If in trouble simply run toward the guards. If you are coming from Qeynos Hills, don't stray too far out yet as roaming brigand or grizzly sometimes surprise you if too far out. Another danger is a Werewolf that spawns near the Qeynos Hills zone. Werewolves are too high level for you to even think about engaging at this level.

The safest way through the zone is to stay near the water. Stay near the QH zone border when coming to or from Qeynos Hills. In other words, keep to the south or west zone edges.

If you're under level 10, you take a big risk on the path traveling between the Qeynos area and North Karana. It's best to go this way until you reach your 20's. Even then, an occasional hill giant may make you wish you went the other way (I've never
seen a HG by the water).

The one thing to watch out for is the werewolf at night near the QH zone border. If you're too low to take him out, your best bet is to zone. If you run the other way, head for the first guard tower, but he's going to be hitting on you instead of the
guards. They'll still take a while to kill him.

The only creatures you typically see along the water are farmers, who seem to like to stare at the river.

I am a certified werewolf hunter, or at least I was while I still played. The werewolf spawns in WK, at the zone to QH. He shows up there at first at 8pm game time and then after he is killed shows up 2 hours later. Meaning if he spawns at 8pm and you kill him at 10pm, he will respawn the next night at 12am. When his new spawn is at or around 5am, he will NOT spawn the next night (guess he takes the day off). The following night he will start again at 8pm. He is constantly lvl 27 (conned white to my monk)and he does not change at all, no matter what anyone else says. He is a tough bastard and hits fast, but if you can make him run and he hits the zone wall, he will sit there and do nothing. Also there is a wandering werewolf that sometimes runs around the ogre encampment. He mostly dies to them, but if they are not there, he runs free and terrorises the populace.

To my knowledge, he has no set spawn time or pattern of movement. You NEED a tracker to find him, or you must be extremely lucky (he seems to find low lvl chars faster tho). The one in WC spawns when you kill the skeletons around the water, and I have gotten that to work a lot of the time, and that werewolf is a lot lower in lvl too. I soloed him at lvl 22. He spawns at the zone to Kithicor woods and runs around to romp and play with the dervs I have seen there. As far as loot is concerned, you get some plat from either one and rarely do you get the lupine armband, werewolf cloak, or werewolf claws. Read about those items if you want to know what they do. I do not have any info on the ones in MM since everytime I went there, they undead beat me to death rather quickly. I hope this post helps fellow werewolf hunters.

BarackObooma · #4 02-27-2019, 06:18 PM

I remember them being vastly more rare than they are now which would lead me to believe they had placeholders. A WW pelt was prized and never vendored. You kept it until you could find Karg Icebear to get the werewolf cloak.

I also remember being attacked by them zoning into WK from NK so they probably had multiple spawn locations or much larger pathing.

In NK, currently there is one spawn location and you can just camp that spot during the night and get 4-5 werewolf kills before it turns to day and they despawn. Grimtooth does spawn in his place from time to time but I believe that is the only PH.

Heres another lucky story. Ive hunted this werewolf in west karana while hunting the ghoul messenger in the past. Only once coming across the werewolf within range near the ogres. Ive know that this was a drop from the werewolf but with no luck for it. Just tonight I zoned into WK form qeyhills and it jumped me. I quickly snared it, cast damage shield on myself, dot it and killed it with melee. Lo and behold theres the armband. It looks like a serp bracer. NO ac Dex3 and Agil3. I took a 7ac hit but the ivy armor, barearm, serp bracer look is kind of cool. Ill see how it works out without no arm armor.

Sorry I meant to say along the north zone wall shortly before you zone into north karana. You will find a massive oak looking tree. There was/is 2 lycanthropes that spawn there.

Posted by Verity on Jun-16-99 at 08:19 AM (EST)
That is to say some time back while running a level 1 from qeynos I came accross these 2 werewolfs I was running zone wall left in west karanas a little further on I ran into 3 npcs a dwarf a barbarian and another race which I do not remember. They were along the zone wall and a little past the huge tree where the lycans were. When talking to the barbarian he gives you some story about they are hunting werewolves ect ect... and basically gives you a quest of some type. Not much help to a necro as you would be KoS if you approached them. This memory is from over a month ago and that is all I recall.

I'm looking for Werewolf in W Karana for 3 items now, but I can't find
it.
Isn't the POP location etc. decided in particular?

There are two werewolf pop locations in WK.

One is in a narrow valley road from WK to Q Hills.
You'll be in the valley for a while.
I think the time he often goes out in the middle of the night of EQ time.

The other is much better than NK. I don't know the exact pop location here , but after a short walk
from NK to WK,
I think he's INN, somehow with a hut.

At least Q Hills people can meet in the valley at night, so
I don't think they need tracking. ^^)

Comment on article number 4406 Well, instead of a fixed pop, I will run along the road
after popping at the Zone of Q.Hill, so if you sit around the first corner of the canyon, you will attack without permission. .. So it seems that there is no PH. It seems that the time will be off by a large amount, so you should be able to meet once from around 20:00 to the morning . # It's also the path of LowLVPlayer, so if you defeat it, it's called Cool # It feels a little good (w)

just got one off a werewolf in W Karana that conned blue to me at 23... All the other werewolves i have fought conned red to me..

DMN · #6 03-15-2022, 03:53 AM

There was at least one werewolf that spawned just little ways east of that camp thats farily near the zone entrance to Qhills. it has a merchant at it if i recall right. maybe a 30-40 second run from that little camp with SoW due east a little north.

most peoples "werewolf encounters" in that zone were the result of people aggroing the werewolf and then quickly running back to the qhill zone exit... now the werewolf would take a very slow an awkward/meandering pathing trip to return to his spawn point/area that involvedlslowly lumbering down the main path. becuse of how much foot traffic was in/near that area the werewolf would end up being ping ponged in pathing loop-- either by killing low level players or being trained back to qhills to start the cycle anew.

the whole situation reminded me of the bouncers being trained to the cazic thule temple entrance and then hanging around that area, often stuck in a sort of meandering pathing loop and/or lizard killing loops. that was not their actual normal pathing behavior to be hanging around out there though many though it so.

Ennewi · #7 04-01-2022, 12:18 AM

There are also comments dated well beyond the classic trilogy era which suggest that the spawn locations weren't changed, so it's possible even the pathing still remains the same on live.

I've seen the werewolf many times in WK. I've hunted a good bit there--mostly scarecrow hunting from lvl 16-20, and of course the occasional bandit farm. In that time, I saw the werewolf twice at guard tower 2, once at one of the shops where Innkeep Danin took him out. As a high elf mage, child of Tunare, I thought it was only appropriate to show Mr. Danin my gratitude--oh wait, forget I said that. Back to the wolf--I've seen him near the bandit farmhouse once, where he took me out at 16 in a few whacks. I was with a wiz who did a lesser evac. He made it out, I didn't, stuck with the wolf. Oh well, one more name on the revenge list. Then, we were hunting the bandit hill near the farm. Message: Werewolf hits YOU for 76 points of damage. I run, wolfie takes out the bandits--damn, less sashes for me, but oh, I can gate now. You have entered North Qeynos. Whew!

Now, I'm level 30. Come to WK from NK, and I meet with my wiz friend at the zone line. He lesser evacs us to the QH zone line. Werewolf pops right behind me, but no pet! Wiz blasts him, wolf runs to wiz. I blast wolf, he comes to me. Not the most organized operation, but hey, it worked! Werewolf down, and a whole 9 silver to split. Bazaar, here I come!

By the way, my faction with werewolf got worse. How do I fix that?

It actually seemed to be a conscious decision made by the developers, going out of their way to see that at least one mob pathed to and/or spawned at a certain zoneline in order to prevent players from congregating there and going AFK/LFG. Gynok Moltor and its PHs were added in beta and testers immediately picked up on the reasoning behind that. Fippy Darkpaw and company did much of the same, preventing newbies from feeling entirely safe while sitting near the city gates. In Runnyeye Citadel, Borxx would also path directly up to the Gorge of King Xxorb zoneline, indicating a connection between her and Xxorb besides the similarity of their names.

Borxx is a level 30 to 35 Evil Eye in Runnyeye. She wanders the zone, usually making a beeline for the entrance to Beholders Maze shortly after spawning. Like the other Evil Eyes in Runnyeye, she is an enchanter with a pet.

Agreed, and there had to be occasions where that happened in WK. But too many comments exist where high level players mention actively camping it or witnessing it/its placeholder spawn.

The werewolf in WK spawns anytime between 9pm and 12am game time, He only spawns once a day (game time not real time)!! He spawns right near the zoneline to Qeynos hills, he is mid 20's. He is not 40 because he's green to me at 36. Don't know about the rest of the zones. I have killed him 5 times so far and gotten nothing but money each time. I will continue to hunt him till I get that god forsaken pelt/skin whatever.

For what it's worth, I just spent a few hours on live sitting near the QH zoneline, trying to verify the paladin runner drops (which drops beads and which drops the necklace). I had the lion and werewolf spawn a few times and they were spawning pretty close to the zoneline. One comment says the werewolf spawns at midnight, I think that's probably right. The lion seems like the PH during the day. Anyways here's my kill log for the few hours I sat there, I don't believe the lion/werewolf share a spawn with the paladins. Also a bandit spawned there too, no idea if he's involved :

That being said, I remember that werewolf being a problem back when I was a newb in qeynos in 1999/2000. I always thought someone trained the QH zoneline right before I zoned in, but now that I see how it behaves on live, I'm certain it just spawned there.

Elroz · #9 04-08-2022, 05:54 PM

Couple more hours of WK farming, I sat at the spawn point (it actually spawns right at the QH zoneline) this time with the intent of figuring out the spawns as well as filling out the paladin drops better. It looks like there's 3 cycles : Paladins (13 minutes exact), Bandit (No idea), werewolf/lion (31 minutes 20 seconds'ish). I'm assuming it'll spawn as a werewolf between 8:00pm and 7:59am game time, and a plains lion between 8:00am and 7:59pm game time.
