Dartmoor

This is an epic zone, meant to be traversed by large groups of high level players only.

Per the 1.101 Release Notes 02.24.10:
Certain zones are now flagged as Epic Zones. These zones now relocate anyone logged out for more than 30 minutes to a safe spot typically located at the start of the zone, except for the main Realm Dragon zones. The locations for these Epic Zones place you safely outside the Faction towns, near the bindstones.
Per this note, Dartmoor is now considered an Epic Zone.

Hello, I'm Saulith from the guild Vis Maior of the Merlin server. Our guild has fervently been farming glowies from the Dartmoor giants for the past few days... I must say that this database if VERY unupdated on what it really contains.. There are quite a few named mobs missing, and ALOT of items left out, or without pictures. I will be glad to take screen shots of what we have gotten so far though, and add it to here. So look for alot of updates. We have been there for 2 days now, and gotten many drops.

For glowies, we have gotten 1 thruster, 1 staff, and 2 necro staffs. The Thruster has a beautiful red and blue flare, the staff is fully red from top to bottom, and the nec staff if black with a energy sparkle on it. My guilde also previously got a BEAUTIFUL flame glow sword. Its is one of the nicest i have seen so far. I will update with pictures so be lookin for it.

Saulith - 46 S/S Paladian of Merlin
Rockstorm - 40 Earth Wizard of Merlin
Necronnu - 19 Necromancer, fully Deathsight

Well..a couple of patches ago, not sure exactly which one..wasn't at the top of my list to keep track of. Mythic updated Dartmoor. Now, myself and one or 2 of my guildies have been hitting it on a fairly regular basis, just for exp, and to see if anything interesting drops. Yes..the items are out of date because mythic did an entire revamp of the items to bring them up to standard with SI drops. They also redid the named mobs to make them more of a challange.

Use the maps though, they aren't that far out of date, and will give you a good idea of what is going on out there.
hehe a question :)

I've fought ponies with my guild for 10 levels, and I've never seen one aggro, baf or call for help. Don't know about the whole herdsman thing though. And of course we didn't have someone who ponies were grey to in our group, or else I wouldn't have been leveling.

The last 2 days I levelled from 31 to 33 just doing Ponies together with a cleric and we did not
get adds during killing a real lot of them.

no matter how many u freekin kill. the only way u will get ponys to aggro u is if u hit every damn one of them. they only aggro when u are killing a herdsman!

Um... I've killed ponies from lvl 26-34. We sat in the river of ponies and killed them one after another. All the time I spent there, they never once called for help. Also, for u to have 170+ people on a raid to kill the dragon and u all got whiped... u guys must suck, no offense... the last dragon raid we had on lancelot, we had around 140 people and the dragon died in one min.

if they are grey to one person in your group they will not aggro. But believe me if the ponies are green or worse to everyone in your group than watch out.

Demi,
Your posts are the most false I have ever read full of mis-information. Do you make all this up, or are you just playing some other game that resembles this in every way except for the game play or anything you comment on?
RE: Bagel 46 arms lancelot
# Sep 10 2002 at 1:07 PM Rating: Excellent
shut up, seriously I posted this info when this page was blank, I at least gave people some info. So yea, ponies don't baf, they call for help. Big deal. Point is you gotta be careful killing them. Same thing with the herdsmen, if they call for help, then don't be around a big pack of ponies (or other herdsmen). For the most part my other info is correct if not particularly precise. I can only give people a idea based on my level and my experiences. Its better than nothing, I don't see you posting any good information here. If you don't like the way I do things, then you try and do better, otherwise shut up.

First - the anonymous coward that mentioned that ponies don't aggro? One word: Moron. Go back and re-read. If you attack a pony and he CALLS FOR HELP the rest of the herd will eat you alive. Dittos for the Herdsmen. If you attack a Herdsman and he calls for help the ponies will, again, eat you alive.

And a note on the dragon. Participated in a 170+ person 40+ level raid and we got wiped. (Altho to our credit we had the dragon down to about 25% life left before it was all over) Those damn giants that hang out with the dragon are the biggest problem. The key to winning is to have LOTS AND LOTS of rez'rs ready to keep the tanks up and on the dragon and to have at least 3 or 4 groups tasked with the sole job of dealing with the giant lords that BAF to the dragon's defense.

Dartmoor Ponies-Green at 46
Don't attack these things unless your able to stop the call for help, there are tons of them and often if you kill one the entire pony population will aggro you.
Granite Giant-Green and Blue at 46
These hang out by the lake, pretty safe for solo killing.
Granite Giant Herdsman-Level 44-47
Evil evil evil. Like the ponies, if you wanna kill these better have a way to stop the aggro. Kill the herdsman and all ponies aggro you and usually any giants in the vacinity come as well.
Granite Giant Stormcaller-Level 45-48
Granite Giant Stoneshaper-Level 46-48
These two hang out in various circles a little deeper in, good to solo pull if your alone, more than 2 in the group and they will BAF. The stormcallers are casters.
Granite Giant Outlooker-Level 47-49
Mostly red to me at 46 but there is one purple guy that always spawns in the same spot, he is right before the Pounders.
Granite Giant Pounders-This is where it gets rough. These guys are mostly purple, some red. I am guessing levels 48-51. They hit hard and like outlookers, callers and shapers, will BAF and will BAF other giants of any type, so if your pulling from the Lord area and you can't handle the Lords, WATCH OUT!
Granite Giant Stonelord-The big daddies, these guys hit very hard and are all purple. Level 53-55 from what I can guess, perhaps even higher.
Ruthless Brigand-Level 42-47
Good good exp and easy to single pull solo or with a partner, they BAF like giants so keep that in mind if grouped.

Whats the best about Dartmoor IMO is how drops work. Very differently than any other zone. Drops appear to be on a timer based on class. Giants drop armor specific to class and weapons. The armor seem to change hourly or so, like I was there one hour we got only scout armor drops (armor is all level 50 for the most part) and then later it was all paladin armor. Everytime I go here its always the same type dropped across the board but each time I go its different it seems. The weapons can drop at any time and are rarer. Same with the jewelry and shields. Whats really cool about this zone is there are about 7 named Giants I have killed. They will ALWAYS drop. Something. Not always the best in their drop pattern but always something. They range from yellow to me to red to me and beyond. There is apparently a named Lord thats harder than many epic mobs to kill. God only knows what he drops. Plus this was just on one SIDE of dartmoor. There could be as many as 20 named Giants. So loot is a very big part in this zone but the mobs are a tad harder than some others of their level. I can usually solo a yellow without much difficulty but the yellow to me giants in this zone prove difficult and on one occasionally I actually died from trying to solo one. Brigands are safer. Of course there is one other thing to mention about this zone. The dragon. Basically unless you have at least 3 full guilds with a ton of level 50s, stay the heck away. Hes harder than Legion. Since Illia hasn't got anything up for this place yet I figured I would try to give you guys a good picture of what its like for those who haven't been there but are considering a go at it. My suggestion is take a group. Unless your going for Brigands its a tough place to solo. Particularly at 45 or below.

you only make yourself look stupid when you post factually wrong insults like this. Ponies don't aggro but if you hit one then every pony in the zone will come down on you unless they are grey to you. But if they are green or higher to you then watch out. Same goes with a herdsman. If you kill a herdsmen then every pony in sight range will aggro you. Know what your talking about before you say anything.

hello, ponies won't aggro u if u hit one when they green.....the only time everyone of them comes at u is when the giant herdsman calls for help
RE: mobs
# Aug 21 2002 at 8:47 PM Rating: Default
I was in a exp group that was hunting ponies for 3-4 hours straight.

They NEVER BAFed or agroed. Maybe *once* one of em' brought a single friend, but more likely someone accidentally hit it.

*WONDERFUL* xp in a full 26-28 group.

# Jul 11 2002 at 12:03 PM Rating: Default
Ok to toss you people a bone. I have killed ponies like it was going out of style. A pony does not call for help though I have seen them run from a group.. I didnt know that flight was even part of the AI till I saw this. Now to clear things up a bit ponies will baf only when you hit a heardsmen and they will baf 3 to a single heardsman (that was with a group of 4. When you kill the heardsmen kiss you *** good by because the whole fricken hill of ponies will come play socker with your heads.
RE: mobs
# Jul 21 2002 at 2:43 PM Rating: Default
thats odd because I have killed just ponies (not attacking any herdsmen and they still all come at me once I kill one. I am wondering if the AI is incomplete in some way because of all the varying reports. I can tell you for sure that they certainly do it to me a level 46 armsman however they neither BAF of herdsmen nor called for help when a group of us (some in the group were level 50) killed them. So I believe its gotta be related to the levels of the group as a whole, if they con grey to one person in the group your fine. However just to illustrate my point I was there a few days ago and a guy that was blue to me was soloing ponies right by the zone in, he killed one and like 6 more baffed at him. I had to help peel them off him. The main point I was tring to make is that Dartmoor is best for a group. If your gonna solo below level 50 in Dartmoor then do what I do and stick to the ruthless brigands. I haven't explored the quarry side much yet, but I believe if you continue down through the plain granite's you will come to stoneshapers and stronger ones. The main problem with soloing in the quarry is that there are so many wandering giants. Even if you stay up on the hillside, its hard to keep it to one on one battles. So its not a great place for solo experience, since you are either forced to go at a higher level to pick off the easier ones, or you run a risk of getting swarmed by blue or yellow con mobs and dying quickly. I had the best success at the brigand camp. Single pulling with a xbow. If you got a good group of 50ish people then nothing short of Mordan or Golestandt will bring you down easily.

RE: mobs
# Aug 02 2002 at 7:08 AM Rating: Default
hmmm I guess some people dont know how to do dartmoor:

ponies DONT arggo (click on a pony and if it says: 'you select the pony it is aggressive towards you' I'll give you $1mill)
IF you attack the herdsman and ponies are in the aoe of the herdsman's 'cry for help' they WILL aggro to you,

Therefore when we do dartmoor, we run down the valley with the herdsmen on us until we get into one of the alcoves on the side of the valley, only then do we take em down. this is the important point people miss. Stand in the middle of the valley and yeah I guess you will think that ponies aggro.........

so to correct the original statement: ponies don't aggro less you are teh stoopid :)
wich version do we need to get there ?
