Curse

SisterMercy · Apr 29, 2006, 12:12 AM // 00:12

A current list compiled with help on the boards (thanks to everyone who's reported sightings). Note: there are a number of reports of bosses who have elites but don't use them, and other related oddities. It appears the wise thing to do would be to try to cap sig all of them possible, and see what you find.

Combat missions with mirrored sides (split between Luxon and Kurzick, i.e. Eternal Grove / Gyala Hatchery) appear to have different bosses, but the same elite skills. Also note that Xaquang Skyway and The Undercity share the same zone, but are not the same zone, if that makes sense -- you need to enter one gate to reach the rooftop (Xaquang) portion, and another to reach the Undercity, and only the bosses for those specific regions will spawn.

The Elite Skills page with Maps will eventually be mapping all of these, and is already fleshing out listings as well: http://www.xennon.co.uk/eliteskills/

You can find Animate Flesh Golem north/northwest of Senji's Corner. (southeast of The Marketplace)

Also, the Tahnnakai Temple mission has one elite to capture for every profession. I got Wail of Doom (necro) from there. The assassin elite is Shroud of Silence, the ranger one Famine, I think I saw the warrior use Auspicious Parry. The rest I didn't see what they were.

mtm · Apr 29, 2006, 03:00 AM // 03:00

Yes the Warrior elite in Tahnnakai Temple is Auspicious Parry, which is also an interesting skill (my main problem is that I am blinded by rangers too much time). The monk spirit in the same mission though was using Spellbreaker if I recall correctly (I went with Monk secondary).
Another new Warrior elite that I have, but unfortunately don't remember the boss I captured from , is Enraged Smash (hammer). However, from what I recall the boss sits very near Kaineng Center.

Edit: Can someone post a map of the location of Sun, The Quivering? I'm killing myriads of brotherhood folks but can't get to him :P

Vizunah Square (Mission) Afflicted *something* - Broad Head Arrow (R)

I may be wrong but i think Ritualist in Tanananana Temple has Weapon of Quickening

.

And i don't really remember anything else

Edit : The Afflicted Huan in the southern parts of Sunjiang District(explorable) has Broad Head Arrow (R).
Xuekao the Deceptive, Pongmei valley (explorable) has Way of the Empty Palm (A).
The Afflicted Hakaru, Pongmei valley (explorable) has Weapon of Quickening (Rt).

audra · Apr 29, 2006, 01:15 PM // 13:15

Lacerate (ranger) found on Ryver Mossplanter, in the Arborstone mission.
The Ancient in the same mission has Shatterstone (ele).

MelechRic · Apr 29, 2006, 03:16 PM // 15:16

Necromancer:

Order of Apostasy (Curses) : Dragon's Throat Necro Boss (name?)

In fact this mission has one boss from every profession in it and all of them use elites. It's just that I have a hard time paying attention to what they use when there are 60 baddies breathing down my neck.

Karmaniac · Apr 29, 2006, 06:58 PM // 18:58

In the undercity I found two afflicted one had Ray of Judgment (monk) and the other Order of Apostasy (necro)

+Kappa boss Baubao Wavewrath with Mind Freeze.

sotodefonk · Apr 29, 2006, 07:02 PM // 19:02

Boon Signet can be found on Ferndale (after you got to House Zu Heltzer but I don't remember the boss name), and other skills as wells but i dont know them.

Ray of Judgment i think it can be found on Vizunah Square mission but i dont remember...

Later

Dragonborn · Apr 29, 2006, 08:04 PM // 20:04

Budbek Byway- Triple Chop (W)

yea, and the boss name is Wing. Three blade ( has triple chop )

Ray of judgement can be found inside undercity, enter undercity from the north entrence(start from Knineng center) and the monk boss is not far from the entrence.

[Spoiler: Wait until all the ambush have show up and start patrolling before attacking the monk boss ]

Yeah, I can't find Sun either. The only bosses I saw in that zone were the monk, and ele bosses.

Enraged Smash can be found in the Vizunah Square mission, in fact, I think there may be an elite for each class in there, I wasn't paying that clse attention, but I know I saw a rit and necro boss as well, and there were proabably others.

julienp · Apr 29, 2006, 10:45 PM // 22:45

The assassin boss at the end of the Sunjiang District Mission has Temple Strike.

Racthoh · Apr 30, 2006, 02:37 AM // 02:37

Map for Sun (see attached).

Not the quest marker, my position on the map naturally.

mtm · Apr 30, 2006, 04:06 AM // 04:06

Thanks to Racthoh. But I think his presence is related to a quest, I don't have foes in that area: There are some Am Fah gangs, but they are not hostile. I think the spot you're pointing is the one with a collector, a materials trader and Minister Baasong? I wonder if you could load the map for me, or tell me your active quest (although with so many quests in Factions...)

Racthoh · Apr 30, 2006, 04:38 AM // 04:38

Active Quests:
Assist the Guards (Completed Status)
Naga Oil
The Plot Thickens
The Missing Link

That would make sense if it is quest related, since I never recalled assassins falling from the ceilings the first time through there.
