I am dual posting this on the EQ Bard and EQ Cleric list.

My group was in upper Guk yesterday trying to get to the squire.

First of all any advice? I cannot seem to make it to him without
hitting multiple Gazz spawns (and a Ton Warrior). I seem to remember
being able to get to him failry easily way back in my troll warrior
days.

We also ran into a repeated problem of a Froglok Apprentice, who would
agrro on our warrior (lvl 13, rest of us are 14). This is nothing
unusal, however this wily frog would hit our puller with a DD spell,
then Run and get help (the circular room before the room with all the
weird scoffolding). We would never do a point of damage to him before
he ran.
The only counter we had to this was for me to go pulling with the
warrior so I could stun then root the appretince (and then let my pet
smush it).

I found this pretty bizarre (intelligent) mob behavior. Is this
normal? Any better ideas of how to deal with it (having your only
healer go on a pull is not a real great idea, IMHO)

We now return to the non-stop rock.
