Not completely sure but Grieg drops a piece for the Zerker epic he is a fun Mob he does a AOE damage of 2500 at lower lvls it can kill you in one shot..... Haven't tried to solo him. My Mage is 103 2nd Mage is 102 on Emerr. Great to box with mercs healer and DPS wizzy. Thanks enjoyed the video. Brings back memories.... Take care and have a great day everyone.....
I found there are additional ways you can get through locked doors. 1. Max shrink (or gnome is also ok), use your mount and while mounted, run into the corner of the door that would have the door nob and then dismount. You then appear on the other side. 2. Eye of Zomm. Again, max shrink or gnome and press your face into the door and cast or use a clickable item Eye of Zomm. As the eye, attempt to open the door. 3. (pet pull/mob summon) Many mobs behind locked doors have summon mechanics. Again, max shrink and press your face into the door or nearby wall. This will allow you to look into nearby rooms and let you target or see nearby mobs to use /target . Once you have a nearby creature targeted, summon an earth elemental. With your character, /sit and send your pet in to attack. Now we want the pet to cast root on the enemy from outside its melee range so you may need to bounce between /attack and /pet hold. If done correctly, your pet will root the mob from a distance, immediately hit /pet hold and /pet back off. The creature immediately targets you because you are sitting and since its rooted and cant run to you, will summon you.
I used the Eye of Zomm trick in City of Mist way back in the day. They made it harder (or impossible) to use that trick now. I would encourage you to make your own videos demonstrating what you described above. Lots of us old timers try these things just out of habit and whether they work or not, forget about them and don't pass on the tricks to new players. One of the reasons I like to solo so much is that when I encounter roadblocks or seemingly unbeatable amounts of mobs in a small area, I like the challenge of figuring a way past or through them. I get more satisfaction from the game this way then just murdering my way through a dungeon.
I found out in Vex Thal that when I didnt have a key, you can get close to a door or wall and target a mob on the other side, you can send a pet in, they will ago and usually summon you thru the door, or if you have an aoe you can cast it on yourself and be near the door and if the mob is close it will agro the mob and again they can summon thru the door, that s how I got thru locked doors in VT, I took a 2box 96 dru /96 bst w/ healer merc and tank merc, was able to clear most the zone, just ended up getting lost and gave up.
Same issue, lol its a year since I posted last time. But Ive been in this zone 1000X easy. Twinking my other toons at lvl 1 some of the no drops are nice and no level req on them, goes for lots of original gear thru PoPower but no lvl doesnt mean no drop so you need to get yer lvl 1 (or whatever lvl) to the mob, can be tuff at times for sure. But in all those times I was on live from 1999 through Discord so play this live, anyways, never saw Grieg up ever an my druid is 103 and can track. Then one time I cleared Griegs room and went afk in the hallway outside his room came back 10 mins later check track and boom he was up first an only time, of course I didnt have my twinks with me but oh well, not sure if the wait was the trick havent tried since but it was the only time Im ever seen him. My $0.02
