After I wiped out my soon-to-be party in the lord room last
night (wow, most embarrassing moment in my personal EQ history), we lost the
room to a lone level 50 necro. I personally didn't stay and watch to see
how long he held it but he was there, all alone and didn't appear to be
terrified.

I hear this a lot. "Man, did you see that
49/50 Necro soloing the Lord
room?" I've never seen it done, and no one
that I know personally on Fennin
Ro has seen it done. I always hear words to
the effect of "it just takes a
bit of strategy", but no one has every had
any comment on what that strategy
might be. The Ghoul Lord room, if broken
and the three spawns staggered
perfectly could not be held for any length
of time by only one or two
individuals in my opinion. The Boks and
Guks that spawn there probably have
around 15,000 hit points and do serious
melee damage. I've been in high
40s/50s groups that have spent three or four
minutes killing a single frog.
If you get a Guk Wizard spawning as the Lord
placeholder you're in serious
trouble with only two folks and a pet. When
the Lord spawns he has even
MORE hitpoints and he's gonna Harm Touch one
of ya (and hopefully) be
procing Ykesha on you. If you know how one
guy can stand up to that I sure
would like to hear it.

Now granted, I have been in groups with a 50
necro where the pet solod Lava
Duct Crawlers in Sol B and the pet had more
than half health at the end of
the fight. Not only that, the necro
(Cinder) said "Sigh - you shoulda seen
my pet *before* they nerfed Necros." Well
damn. A single LDC can make a
full group in their lower 40s run for the
zone with a couple of deaths but
one Necro pet (blue to me) can solo one?
And Necros complain?
