Raiding in Plane of Air dropped a

**Fierce Spirit Clay**  
Magic Lore No Drop

From the phoenixs on phoneix isle.

These mobs are one groupable, only one dropped cleared whole island for the ring.

Sounds epic like who knows, posted just incase it crops up.

Lore: You think you see heads of beasts in this clay

Worth remembering...

By phoenix isle, you mean the griffons on pegasus isle?

[Bengali]

No, you're thinking Plane of "Sky".  Plane of "Air" is the PoP elemental plane.

[jitathab]

Yeah the one with Xegony in, Erylasi or however its spelt.

[Nusa]

My mistake....good, I didn't really want to redo sky keys anyway (destroyed em for bank space a while back).

Ok this now seems to be confirmed as a part.

The Spiritfrenzied Phoenix has always been up and always dropped the clay on the last three visits to the zone.

Getting there is tricky if Baltador the cursed is up, as he sees through rogue SoS. He also spawns like every 24 hours. His DPS is lowish but has a nasty AE which can be resisted with a Bard quite easily. Pull is tricky for all but FD class.

Tbh the tactic I would suggest if your in a hurry... Pull Baltador to group, necro invis and run up to the next tunnel, camps out for agro,  and SC/Res there. Only thing not sure is whether any see invis mobs at the cross roads. Make sure Necro dont die from dot :p

Next go through Bee island, clear a path to left side, then straight over next island via killing again. Finally you arrive at the island you want. Spiritfrenzied is not near the front of the island, there is an occasional 68-69 wanderer up the tunnel camp. Lots of 67+ mobs to kill to get to it. Mobs will not repop for two hours as part of the Avatar script. Possible mini named will spawn Calebgrothiel. A little nasty for a single group I would expect.

To one group this stage will require the well geared people with good resists a Tank, Cleric, Chanter required, preferably a druid and necro.

does he go back to his spawnpoint when no longer aggro ? or could he be pulled all the way to ZI ?

I really dont know anyone who is eager to ever set foot into PoA again, so there is my plan to eventually make the whole thing as painless as possible.

[jitathab]

I assume you mean Baltador - yes he wanders back on FD.

If you can get him from the spawn point to zone in I would be amazed.

Getting the Spiritfrenzied to zone in will be probably the most amazing pulling feat in EQ history without pre clearing a lot of mobs, if you manage it post a movie please :)

CoH doesnt work up there either.

[Fionnah]

coffin does though ;)

If you have the necro camp out then he will not be in group and can no longer SC....

[Fionnah]

Yeah, but he can FD after a monk runs around training everything... hehe

[Snowmeow]

Or he can send an eye down and reinvite people to a group.

My strat for getting past Baltador would be to have a monk (out of the group is best but can use in group if ya like) aggro Baltdor and take him the opposite way round the first isle from the group.
When the tunnel is clear the group moves up invis to the crossroads or next isle.
Meanwhile the monk hightails it to zonein and zones out aggro.
at this point the monk can go do his own thing or if hes part of your group he can zone back in - run past baltador up the tunnel to crossroads and FD - when aggro resets he rejoins group.
