Only 6 skills? - J.P.User J.P. sigicon.pngTalk 14:53, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
Nope, just went back W/E after the Elementalist boss at this spawn site, killed this dude again anyway, we has Aftershock as an Extra --Neil2250 , Render Lord User Neil2250 sig icon6.png 14:58, 16 April 2010 (UTC)

Human?[edit]

I tbh doubt this thing fits the general idea of human, not sure what else it'd be tho Mal 09:08, 18 April 2010 (UTC)

Looks like an Ogre to me --Mann Of Strength 15:11, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
Nah, check out the picture. It's a hunchback with a sewer drain in his mouth. User Felix Omni Signature.pngelix Omni 15:13, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
prehaps some kind of juggernaut? Not the juggernaut we know (kurz juggy's) but like this--Mann Of Strength 15:23, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
Big bad fail wrestler on steroids? Sounds quite likely actually Mal 17:56, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
just fought some of the npc with same skinn; looking at the attacking of it i would say giant, but dont know it for sure --Mann Of Strength 18:16, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
Mesh is not how we distinguish the Species.See the Yeti and Awakened Gray Giant have the same mesh, they arnt the same Speciese.--Neil2250 , Render Lord User Neil2250 sig icon6.png 18:21, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
owhyeah, forgot bout that :P but then i still think of some new generation juggy's--Mann Of Strength 10:25, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
Anyone got an ogre-slaying knife? :P or well, just something with extra dmg vs ogres, I haven't, but that way we'll be able to end this discussion for once and for all Mal 16:10, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
Or Maybe we could make this hella easier! Would someone just disease of of these bad boys and walk next to them, then we'd know. 64.254.191.194 21:59, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
Gonna go and try disease on him now, though if it doesn't spread we'll still need to do more checks to determine "what" he is. Dakota 18:00, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

Just fought a bunch of peacekeepers in The Black Curtain that use this skin and THEY DO pass disease. I'll still check Carnak though.Dakota 18:10, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

Unless there was someone in his mob spreading Disease Carnak, as well as the other Peacekeepers sharing his skin are Human.Dakota 18:18, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
Considered human by the game, at least (not necessarily lore). --94.171.77.82 18:35, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

Green Weapon?[edit]

Can someone confirm this drop Carnak's Maul? --Luis royo 15:10, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

Highly doubt... theres been wishes for greens from these bosses... even rumors about wishes... but never any proof or anything official... therefore pic's or it didn't happen 65.6.156.101 22:12, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
Same IP tried to name another green drop for this enemy... calling it bogus without soemthing in talk to prove otherwise as it does not fit the naming of every other green drop added in the war in Kryta content MrPaladin talk 11:13, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

Image is off[edit]

Probably because of the update, but he's located just North of the zone entrance to Kessex Peak from the Black Curtain, not where the current map shows. -- FreedomBoundUser Freedom Bound Sig.png 17:08, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

Reverted to correct location. -- Sai 17:25, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

Trivia[edit]

Possible reference to the "giant" Carnac Stones of [1] or [2]?--Wolfdm3 19:36, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

Nope, a clear reference to Johnny Carson's role as Carnac the Magnificent. He would constantly fall down when heading to his desk, and this guys skills all revolve around knockdown. The name is also a pretty clear reference. LordSojar 01:28, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
clear? a physic and a Brute? yeah obvious correlation there Zachariah Zuan. 18:39, 7 July 2010 (UTC)
This Trivia makes no sense. I suggest it's deleted unless the staff confirmed it somewhere. Blue Totoro 12:55, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

Disappearing Act[edit]

I just attempted this quest twice with two different groups. Both times Carnak and his White Mantle companions were missing from the map. I knew I had the quest and my teammates claimed to have the quest active and access to Lion's Arch Keep. We attempted rezoning in Kessex Peak, but Carnak's group refused to spawn. I was wondering if this could possibly be a bug? azalea||chat 01:56, 14 June 2010 (UTC)

Havent done anything at all in warinkryta's regard, but he hasnt spawned for me at all in 10 zones. 77.164.165.114 17:07, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
It's much more likely that one of your group members was mistaken. In the future, an easy way to check is to try to gain access to Lion's Arch Keep, the guard will tell you straight away if someone doesn't have access. Were any of the other spawns present? You usually have to go through another boss group. And IP, you have to meet certain reqs for the spawns to begin. -- FreedomBoundUser Freedom Bound Sig.png 17:59, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Doesn't spawn[edit]

What's the deal with this boss? I want to capture Earthshacker but he isn't located where it is shown on the map. I do not have the quest and therefore I am checking the position a little below-right of Temple of Ages. He isn't there. I've checked 4 times. What's up with that?

edit: k ran a bit and discovered he's located below near the entrance to Kessex Peak. No, I do not have the quest activated. This needs to be updated. Misguided info is very frustrating.

can confirm this, without the quest he spawns at location near portal [3] 78.150.53.238 02:14, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

Location[edit]

With the quest he appears at the first version of the image, perhaps the spawn changes if you don't have the quest but this should be noted. 87.195.101.155 15:50, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

He always appears in the same spot, whether I have the Wanted quest targeting him or not. – Tennessee Ernie Ford (TEF) 00:06, 17 January 2012 (UTC)

Location (again)[edit]

For me, he just spawned according to the first verion of the map (near-ish the southern portal to Cursed Lands). The catch is that my character has only completed Hell's Precipice and done nothing else towards WiK progression; I'm still at the point where I cannot access Lion's Arch keep. 90.79.20.16 13:00, 3 April 2021 (UTC)
