Looks like you guys have this covered. Just came to say that he was absolutely 1190 max in Velious. I remember odd shit like that really well for some reason.
Here's Delheru who was notoriously pedantic and accurate confirming in 2001.

NToV is quite entertaining... there aren't many actually _hard_ dragons (meaning significantly harder than say Tormax or Yelinak). Really once you learn them and are equipped well enough you can 30man Ikatiar, Eashen, Aaryonar, Feshlak, Mirinella, Koi'doken, Sevalak, Cekenar, Jorlleag, Zlexak, Nevederia... but that is sort of the idea and some of these dragons are far from trivial before you learn them (Aary and Zlexak especially, Neve to some degree). Kreizenn and Dagarn aren't difficult, but do need some melee power to take out (36-42 certainly, but I doubt 30). Vyemm is the most difficult one, though it needs some brains to figure out and I'm sure it'll be a lot less fun when it's well posted where are the best places to fight it etc. Still, quad 1190 is nothing to scoff at and your agro control better be good, since him turning around a lot is something you do NOT want to see

Still I would probably be gone for EQ had NToV not pulled me in for the final challenge. What worries me is that a lot of guilds are 'finishing' Velious too early. We've killed everything short of Ventani (might be capable, but not interested looking at what BotS got for their troubles) and Tunare and the farm rounds of ToV are getting trivial (one wipesized loss during the whole raid to a misplaced Vyemm who died within 30 minutes of the wipe). Sure the loot is godly, but such a great amount drops every clear and farming for what.. 3-4 months really isn't my idea of fun :/
Those who have yet to conquer NToV, go do it now. Exploring the place is more than rewarding and unless you get freshly chewed out tactics from those that have already cleared, it'll keep you busy for quite some time as well.

§ Lord Vyemm Dead 2001/10/22
Lord Vyemm - Temple Veeshan の Dragon の中で君主である Vulak'Aerr とNo.1、No.2の座を争うと言われているDragon。Max 1190 のダメージと、AE Knockback + Graviflux を合わせ持つ、まさに最強といわれてもおかしくないその力。勝つためには45人から60人必要と呼ばれるD ragon に Vane が6 Party、約 36人で挑みます。（人が足らないだけとも言えます（汗））
