3 boss mobs all located in the Penumbra Catacombs;

Humbada
This guy Area Nukes, takes an MP along for NSD




Sursunabu



Ershkigal
This guy Area Nukes, takes an MP along for NSD



All stand an equal chance of dropping it.


Simply select the temple of your choice Redeemed or Unredeemed ( Faction Standing doesn't matter here ), and make your way to the spirit room, once inside you can zone through a door to your East or your West, whichever side you choose run down into what appears a dead end and jump into the black holes. Welcome to the Catacombs. Cheesy

This can be done with care, and skill by a single crat' and MP.

Best method we've established is have a 'crat lead the way, first landing a Shadowlands Calm on the Catacombs mobs, then re-calming them with a Rubi-Ka Calm. Simply calm your way to the boss mobs.

For Humbada and Ershkigal you WILL need an MP for Nano Shutdown, these guys area nuke for ALOT !!

Trader nano drains also _seem_ to affect them. No nano, no nukes, in short. Personally we used agents to NSD the buggers, worked well enough (enough for 18 kills before we called it a day last time). Just need to beef up their nanoskills a little. Trader NR drains work wonders as well.
Another method of entering is to send in an agent or two (mimic doc) to sneak into the staircase rooms, then have a mezzer (noncrat, if you had one you wouldn't need to do this) blitz in there and mezz the usual 1 add that follows in (works on the right turn side , from NE unrede temple anyway). Then just have rest blitz in one by one. The agent sneak thing has one more benefit: if you do it before sending any blitzers in they can open the doors and clear the lag some for the people coming in after (the door lag can get people killed,etc.). Also Ershkigal seems to do target nukes a lot more than area, so with a good but MP-less force it should doable but risky. Humbada is another matter, can get pretty brutal there.

Also, if ya got a crat to chainmezz the boss, you can do without a MP NSD'ing. Just don't get a laggy crat;p Also, if a Trader uses NR drains, he's a perfect mezzer down there. Usually 1st mezz hit after NR perk drains. I was utterly amazed

Our method of doing it (we were only killing 1 boss then resetting) was that we went down to the first 'safe zone' which is the stairs down, then we pulled a boss mob near to the stairs down the stairs, and fought it there.

We killed this one with me (Engy) and a doc Smiley

Now I have been camping amulets for 30 hours, and finally got one!

Current drop rates (15.3.2.1) seems to be:

Sububububububuu =    1/8

Hamaamama        =     1/6

Ershkirargaga       =     1/3



something like that (Names spelled wrong on purpose Wink )

blunt defense z and cripple defense all work on this mob and then all the other trader drains land which makes them easier to kill. need a good puller and basically start from the stairs and have someone pull the mob to the stairs and hopefully if the doors are closed you wont get adds

It seams to be something wrong with the spawn timer. We waited well over 90 minutes last day, but no respawn.

Is there a % change of spawn likte the underwater dryads in Adonis?
