Venril Sathir Remains

[am0n]

I was looking at the walkthrough for the Ranger epic and noticed a greyed out section talking about VS remains. Sounds like they are not implemented on P99. I am curious if they will be?

From this post:

It looks like the patch around 4/2001 mentions the remains. According to:

http://everquest.allakhazam.com/history/patches.html

Velious came out Dec 6th, 2000 and Luclin Dec 4th, 2001. So, it seems like the remains either became or at least were part of Velious. However, I only ever played Classic EQ (pre-Kunark) in release, so can anyone more knowledgeable provide any insight?

They will be added onto p99. Revel!

Plan is to run through the patches up until the release of Luclin.

Epic revamps and VSR and increased spawn time on VS should be here in about ~3-4 months, if the timeline is followed.

Thanks both of you!

Was there a mechanic to keep epic farmers from just farming VSR for the pulsing green stone? Or could just any ranger/druid show up and pop it for free stones to sell?

Nope, just takes a druid or ranger to do the turn-in and he doesn't drop anything else. The VSR spawned version of VS is weaker than the normal VS, but still procs the 1500 lifetap, so it still takes some effort to kill.

How sure are you of this? I thought he didn't lifetap or if he did, he did it at a much lower frequency. I haven't done this part of the Druid epic in 2-3 years now probably, but I recall that part being a joke.

I was probably the last druid to do epic on eqmac, he definitely procs it way less.

Me and an ench were able to duo VS from VSR via the rune/wotw trick, but got slaughtered every time we tried real VS


also me and a BL duo'd faydedar, not sure if he's any easier than real faydedar because i've only ever done druid spawned faydedar

btw this is lvl 65 ~30 aa's with low end pop gear, not even full ornate.

We 1 grouped VSR on the Combines (2006 ?) with pick up 50+. So VS from VSR is definitly much much easier than VS.

Triggered Fay was the real deal though.

So like the undead bard, where you have to turn in a mostly completed epic first to spawn trak?
