Nov 18- dirtyoldad I noticed that the Crocodile's Tooth Dagger artifact requires you to kill crocodiles to level it. Well, doing so might be made significanly easier if you complete the "Riverland Menace" quest, and wear the bracer reward. It gives 5% bonuses to melee and styled damage against reptiles. Even better, find people who did this quest for XP and buy two from them Nov 20 - Gilnar Strategy (scroll down to see how to solo):Location: Stygian Delta, Itet is on north shore of river, between setian portal and midpoint of sobekite shore camp. (around SD 38k, 32k) Nov 14- east_villager Itet is an aligator that goes in and out of the water and around the shoreline at about 20ft north of 32k,38k in Styg. Jan 1 - Promatus This has been done with 2 people: Minstrel(me) + Cleric Bot. Apr 9 2004 - Logan (I am guessing this was a minstrel with a charmed salamander). We killed Itet today with 7 people. Didn't use any special strategy, fought him on land. Group makeup was: 2 Pierce BMs 2 40+ regrowth Druids 1 Bard 1 Mana Eldritch 1 Mana Enchanter Definitely not the best setup but it worked. Everything was pretty straight forward, we melee'd Itet down til about 40% HP while casters kept killing the adds. Once he transforms, its when the PBAOE hits in. Itet PBAOE'd about 5 times during the encounter; make sure the supports are spread out and tanks move as far as they can when Itet's dagger slams into the ground. 11/11 - Sweat Most important thing is to fight him in water. On land, he probably spawned 25+ crocs when we killed him and started chain PBAE'ing under 50%. In the water, he spawned maybe 5 crocs and pbae'd once. 2G just zerged him the second time, was very easy.. First time we have 1g and it took a lot longer of course Jan 1 - Beckham When this was done solo:I saw a runemaster solo this with his castable blade turn. He grabbed itet and pulled him into the Stygia town and let the gaurds beat him down. While gaurds were on him, he casted his bladeturn on the gaurd's to keep them alive. When Itet was at 5% he began nuking with MW3 to finish it off and get the encounter/dagger (this was AFTER the MW nurf). Knowing runemasters cannot use the dagger, im sure another class could probably solo this. Possibly a Savage with his castable taunt to pull the mob to town, not sure if the gaurds can live long enough tho without bladeturn. Mar 18 2004- Zetla Just confirming that u can solo this dagger . I did it with my merc dragging to Haven. My bot buffed guard. Any adds I had merc drag to another guard then go back to helping the guard on Itet. It did take a while getting him to Haven though. PS Dont do this during primetime as it upsets others who may be afking. Mar 24 2004 - Ranzakk Tips:Itet changes form as part of the script that produces the dagger. You killed him too quickly. Nov 23- Deyo I fought him tonight. We had less than optimal circumstances - all I knew (and I knew more than anyone) was that he spawned babies, PBed, and PBed less in the water. We also had 14 people... but 3 were <45, 3-4 were 45+, and the rest were 50. We had a bard for each group (1 a bot), a warden for each group, a druid, a PBer in 1 group, and the rest were various tanks. And from experience dying to him solo, he was much tougher than usual (a friend had hit him for 15 solo... hit him for 10 or so tonight). So here's a run-through: First time, we pulled him to the water, whacked away, didn't handle his minions very well, and only got him to about 65% before getting wiped. Second time, after losing our second warden and 2 tanks, we split into a tank/healer group and a smaller group (me with the lowbies) to take care of the minions. This time, we got him down to 50% (no PB at this point)... he transformed into the djinn form, and THEN he started PBing. We had been kicking his butt, but at this point we weren't prepared enough for the PB. We got him down to 40% or so before two consecutive PBs wiped most of us. Suggestions: First off, our makeup hurt us. You could do this with a well-organized FG with proper healing and such. Second, make sure healers stay out of PB range and have everyone else /stick the aggro holder (who runs) as soon as you see the PB message come up - I thought we were going to have longer to run, I guess. Third, the animist idea would make this really easy... unfortunately, we didn't have that option with this short prep time. Oh, and one more thing - he has another ability, where he "charges his armor" or something - basically, it's a mega damage shield that (as far as I could tell) hits you for 100-150 if you hit him right after he does it. In most cases, not earth-shaking, but something I haven't seen anyone else mention. 11/12 - Lanthalasa Drops:Crocodile Tooth Daggerduskwood Bow of the Whispering Wind stats page 1, stats page 2 Dec 16 - Rambures Montjoy The Bow of the Whispering Wind (Albion) will now drop with a slower attack speed.
