Title: Lord Oaks and his little Queenie Silvani (How to Solo in Illshenar)
Post by: Ultima on October 12, 2008, 07:02:42 PM
I'm not sure who all knows this little trick but I had a lot of  fun with it so I'll share it for those of you who aren't aware of this one. I'm sure it's considered a cheat and an exploit but it's really about having fun and pretty harmless. So if you you guys and gals get bored in game and have the time and patience here is a way to spawn the Mighty Lord Oaks(Illshenar). There is no real reward as far as Uber Loot or Powerscrolls for doing this on the Illshenar facet. Think of it as an adventure and good way to have some fun.

Spawn 1  Ancient Wyrm (Paragon) and 1 Greater Dragon (Paragon) in Illshenar and lure to Lord Oaks Champion Idol (Near Shrine of Spirituality). They will do all the dirty work for you.  ;D

I happened to come upon 2 Greater Dragons so I decided to take them both for a little ride along with the Ancient Wyrm. Be prepared for a few dirt naps on this journey. I had quite a few close calls:

My new little friends do great job and we move the Champion Spawn along in a timely manner:

As we get near the end "All hell breaks loose" when the Ethereal Warriors and Serpentine Dragons overwelm my new found friends: (http://i387.photobucket.com/albums/oo318/pretty_in_pink_84/AllHellBreaksLoose.jpg)

Suprisingly the followers of the Mighty Lord Oaks are too much for the Paragon Dragons and Wyrms and I end up losing all three of my companions. I quickly logged onto my 2nd Account and grabbed my Horselord and took down the remaining Serpentine Dragons which ended up being just enough to complete the first part of the mission:

As I begin my assault on the Forest Lord he summons his women to fight by side:
(http://i387.photobucket.com/albums/oo318/pretty_in_pink_84/SummonQueen.jpg)

Lord Oaks is virtually invunerable as long as his Queen is alive. She must be to be dealt with first if I'm to have any success against Lord Oaks. I grab my Discordance Tamer and go to work on the little lady:
(http://i387.photobucket.com/albums/oo318/pretty_in_pink_84/SilvaniEnd.jpg)

After dispatching his Queen I engage in the final battle with Lord Oaks. During the ensuing battle Lord Oaks unloads a barrage of verbal assaults

I'm still shocked Ultima did all that in the KR client!  I wouldn't be able to play through all the tears.... :P

Nice job and sorry to poke at your client choice; at least you are playing UO unlike me who's been doing more WoW these days.

I've felled him 3 times and haven't gotten a dirt patch yet  :'(

Maybe it's rare like a Crimson Peerless Drop? I've never even heard of the dirt patch.  I'll have to check the corpse a little more closely next time. LOL!

Gawh TM!

I'm never gonna hear the end of it am I?  ;D

I did doom a few times in KR.  It wasen't too bad.  I like how I could switch to a luck suit about instantly before I killed a boss on my dexer and how I could swap weapons faster.

Yeah for sure the arm/disarm & equiping items is pretty good.

I also really like being able to zoom in and out. Titan Quest was like that so you can get up really close so it's almost like 3D or you can zoom way out so you have a bird's eye view. It's nice being able to see monsters from far away and they're not able to target you. I feel empowered  ;D

Hopefully they do right by Stygian Abyss and we have an even better client. Then TM won't be able to bust my chops!

I think that EVERYTIME someone mentions it.  I wouldn't mind messing around with a new client at times :P  I had a nice exploit on KR to let me run uber fast till I got jailed lol.

slick little write up here for sure! Loved the screen shots of the final level surrounding your paragons! The dirt patch does still spawn on the fel oaks.  I don't think it ever spawned on the tram ones.

BTW - i have been wondering this for some time if you tamed and released greater dragons all around the outside of the fel oaks bowl would they still have neg karma and kill off all the level one and two spawn that hits way out there.  Anyone actually do it?  I know you could bring rikktor over to oaks for quite a show!

Not sure how released Dragons would work at Fel but I just might have to give it a try the next time I get bored. If you find out first let me know.  :)

I wondered if others had tried this. I've actually never done the whole spawn this way but I've done this with newb characters to gather gold and scrolls (like on Origin when it first started).

Never tried it with Paragons either, just an Ancient Wyrm once which took it to level two then died.

We used to haul stuff up from Bog to do Oaks in Fel sometimes, forgot what they're called but those big blue slime looking things that spawn other minor monsters. They were good for pushing along level 1 before the peace necro made all other spawn characters practically obsolete lol.

Good stuff Ultima!

Couple years ago the guild I was with would always do Oaks then when Silvani and Oaks pop, we'd lure them to the COD spawn. The two of them worked it incredibly fast all the way to the champ (most of the time atleast). Then the champs would fight each other and we'd unload on both.... Good times

Thanks for the tip.

I mainly play in KR myself.  I'm hoping they really improve on it with SA.  Until then, the UI modders have done a great job at fixing the interface and even some of the bugs.  Bitter Black Enhanced is quite an improvement.

The Dirt Patches seem to have a 1:20 Drop Rate (got 1 a few days ago).

We used to dig up Shadow Ellys to do the spawn for us .... ;)

I lured the Greater Dragons from Humility Shrine and that was quite a walk.

I haven't tried the Shadow Elemental Trick that would probably be easier just not sure how tough they are...are they impervious to damage?

I think I want to try and Lure Oaks to one of the Shrines and see how that works...

But Pirates you go deal with Meraktus and tell me how it goes..then worry about Mr. Oaks. :P

LOL! Well how many Pirates do you know that wears sandals? So yeah I'm allowed to make fun of him!

I was going to spawn Oaks and Lure him to the Humility Spawn but I think there have been changes implemented to make the Champ Spawn teleport back to the Alter if they are so many tiles away from it. I know that's what happens with some of the other Champions (Semindar, Rikktor, Mephistus) so I didn't give it a try but that would have been fun to watch Lord Oaks and Silvani spawning up another Boss and watching them do battle.

Hoby I haven't been farming any powerscrolls on the Asian Shard ever since I started farming Meraktus. I got my 2nd Statuette yesterday...finally. Now I want to try and solo Bedlam but I haven't figured it out yet I got caught on Tier 3 and didn't get 1 candle.  The twisted Weald is also top priority but that can't be solo'd I don' think. Tier 3 in the weald is absolutely brutal if your don't know what your doing. Bedlam isn't an easy spawn to solo either but there are some asians doing it as I've watched them on the tail end of the spawn.

Anyhow after making a small fortune I've become lazy in farming powerscrolls and focused more of my attention on some of the Champ Spawn Replicas. The Dreadhorn Statuette is the #1 Goal right now. Dreadhorn is my nemesis!

I have a friend comming back from Iraq who is fired up to farm powerscrolls so if you make it back over to the Asian Shard  we should be able to get some farming done if your still up for it.

If you tried to released tamed Dragons wouldnt it reset their dest waypoint and they would try to return to "home" or their spawn point?
   i dont know how the newer stuff works, i havent played osi in years, but on the freeshards, if you release a pet, or it goes wild, you can usually find it at the furthest point it can get to in route back to where it spawned...  of course that wouldnt stop them from killing anything that attacked them on their way..  just a thought..

On OSI shards I'm pretty certain pets  just wander aimlessly once released. I'm not sure how the alignment of say a Greater Dragon would effect the Oaks Spawns after being released but I'm thinking it would revert and would start attacking Pixies.

But this spawn is pretty easy these days especially with 2 people or so especially for a Disco Tamer with a greater Dragon. The Illshenar Spawn Helper script here on SUO is tailor made for doing Oaks and is probably a better bet than trying to lure Paragon GD's and AW's.

  I tried this little trick one day...  I couldn't get a para ancient to spawn.  Killed i'd say about 40 of them and not one paragon.  Maybe they fixed it, or broke.

Here's a video I seen on youtube doing the deed.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DioXvSbCO4g (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DioXvSbCO4g)

Good stuff Ultima!

It does work, kinda..
We released about 4 or 5 greaters and let them work, the only bad part was they started attacking stuff on the ledges and they would not attack anything else until what ever was on the ledge died. But it does allow you to kill only positive karma monsters, and still be able to level fairly fast. The greaters will parish when the angels and serpentine dragons spawn.

But Honestly a few archers killing mostly only positive karma spawn goes fairly fast, ABC archer works great with proper slayers. The Fey Bow (Silvani's?) works awesome, And a dragon slayer for the serpentine dragons.

I run my bot with the ironwood fey slayer bow and it can get to right about 9 candles then when it gets stuck I bring my second account with my tamer and bump it/help it get to centars.  The only issues I run into is I can only do bout 2 oaks solo then I have to go kill other stuff to build karma back from killing serpent dragons.
I had my bot script keep track of the the kills per sot(only for oaks trammel) for a few days and the highest kills it took to get a sot was 1049 and low was like 25.  I only kept track for a few days but current average is around 180 kills per sot.

Ahh I just looked at the old KR Screenshots! Brings back great memories I can only hope the art updates they are promising will look just as good!

The Karma loss is a real pain or people would probably farm this more.

It's a fun spawn to play with when you can lure Ancient Hellhounds, Harbringers, and Greater Dragons.

I might give this spawn a try again on my Thrower if I can get my hands on one of these Wind Of Corruption (Fey Slayer Cyclone).

The other good thing about this spawn is it gives a chance at a Lieutenant of the Britannian Royal Guard.

All spawns have a chance at dropping replicas. I suggest doing Serado in Tokuno though if you don't want to venture into Fel.

the Halloween of 2012 we were able to create the ancient hell hounds!
we spawned up baracoon at a near by spawn to fel oaks and turned the hell hounds into ancients and had a steath herder lead them on a journey to oaks and those suckers would do all the work for us.... we usually brought along 12 of them and they did 3 oaks before dieing a terrible death! was amazing i still have a deed of 60,000 hell hound treats hehe wishing and hoping for it to happen again :D
