Talk:Arneh the Vigorous

Whoah dude!

This Guy's a Lot tougher now as of the Jun18th update, he Rezzes his entire party to almost full health and then they all spike/nuke at the same time with like 100% Crits. I had trouble beating him and I was using Double-Searing Eles and a semi-imbagon... Newer Alts without maxed builds/gear will probably have to do the Pull-to-the-WurmSpawn trick just to cap his Elite from now on. I'd hate to see him in HardMode ...sheesh. --ilr 01:15, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

Spawn at "Return of the Undead King"

The Note-Section states that Arneh won't spawn if the Quest "Return of the Undead King" is active. I was kinda happy when I read this, because it would VQing the area much easier. I went out 3 times now (HM and NM) but he was still there. What am I doing wrong?^^

I went out with another player and solo. When RotUK was active, Arneh didn't appear. When I dropped the quest, Arney did appear. I'm not altogether sure that his absence makes things easier — the undead that appear in his place are no slouches.   — Tennessee Ernie Ford (TEF) 03:53, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Is still spawning during RotUK

Hey, I tried it also several times in HM with hero + hench team and the quest active and he is STILL SPAWNING. Maybe a bug so something else?!

Odd, since this was the opposite of my experience (and my friend's) (the only thing we changed to get him to appear/disappear was to include someone in the party with RotUK active). Are you sure it was Arneh you saw and not Ardeh the Quick? Arneh spawns in the same part of Joko's Domain as the Undead Kings (of RotUK) while Ardeh spawns elsewhere. I've seen more than one person try to cap paragon skills from Ardeh, so I hope you don't mind me asking you to double-check.   — Tennessee Ernie Ford (TEF) 02:12, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

Np, but I can ensure you, it is the @#!%§+$-res-whole-party-immediately-and-wipe-you-out-paragon-boss.

If you still won't believe it - see the evidence pic.

Sigh. It's something more complicated than just quest is/is not active then. I assure you that the only change my party made was turning on/off that single quest. I recognize that spot, as we went there many times trying to figure out how to get him to spawn. I'm fine with the edits you made, based on your own evidence. When I next get a toon that can take the quest, I'll do some more testing to see if what else might come into play.

Nice work backing up your experience and applying the edits consistently across articles.   — Tennessee Ernie Ford (TEF) 23:37, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

Easily Killed

He was fairly, and surprisingly, simple to kill once I gave Pyre Fierceshot (substitutable by Acolyte Jin or Margrid the Sly) Heart of Holy Flame with Barrage, managed to get them all clumped in to a group, and giving myself Heart of Holy Flame in addition to the Dervish sunspear skill and Chilling Victory for AoE holy damage spikes. Went down in a couple of seconds. I was kind of sad that he managed to kill me so easily the last few times I went at him. v.v (68.18.50.213 13:14, 11 November 2009 (UTC) Bladecutter)

Also, I can confirm that he did spawn during Return of the Undead King, as I just now noticed the quest was active. (Bladecutter 13:30, 11 November 2009 (UTC))
