Subject: Re: Center of attention


Let the goldrush doors open...

I killed Corflunk solo at lvl 10. He actually spawns pretty often (once
every hour maybe). He started conning blue to me at lvl 9, but I did not see
him again until I was ten. It was not a fast fight, but I survived and got
his head.

I saw Zarcoomi last night for the first time in a long while. I think she
only spawns once daily. I was with a 10th lvl rogue and when I spotted an
ogre across the BB plains I hit Selo's and went chasing. She conned blue to
me (11th lvl now) but she is a spell caster so you have to be a little
careful.

All in all in was not a whole lot of work/peril. I think the hardest part
was just finding Zarcoomi at the right place right time. Fortunately BB is a
big zone, and if you spot her, or Corflunk you can probably have them
without a swarm of other folks hoping in.
