outcast Shik'Nar spawn in the spot as PH's. The spot is the elevated area in the middle of the wide part of the tunnel as soon as you exit the water area before it narrows.

It is probably just coincidence, but:

I was clearing all of the bugs for hours whilst clearing the areas for the other two nameds. This named bug never spawned. When he was all I had left, I decided to kill the Reishicyben for gits and shiggles and boom - Ch'ktok popped instantly. I had just cleared the room where Ch-ktok spawns less than one minute prior (and no bugs were up anywhere nearby).

Found him standing at loc 1338 , 445 near the pool that leads to the Reishicyben. Only dropped a silver earring and two wings. Pretty easy kill for me as a 17 rogue. Average hit was for 23 pts with a couple 40's. This is my first time ever seeing him since Luclin came out so he must be a very rare spawn.
Where??

Im interested in finding out just where he is supposed to spawn...like a /loc or directions

Check out the eqatlas map:

http://www.eqatlas.com/luclin/paludalcavernsmap.html

There is a lake and underwater tunnel just to the left of the "The Hollowshade Moor" lable on the map, Ch'ktok spawned near the south-west shore of that lake for me today. Great PL spot, imho. (approx loc 1400, 400)
No Longer spawns
# May 02 2003 at 3:52 PM Rating: Decent
I am convinced this mob no longer spawns after levelling several alts in PC in just this spot constantly clearing the PH intentionally trying to pop him while xp'ing. I saw him once long ago is all when luclin was newer.

he still spawns. i killed him the other day with my new iksar beastlord.
RE: No Longer spawns
# Nov 26 2003 at 4:36 AM Rating: Default
I've killed him today while mowing through the back tunnels near the Reishicyben out of boredom. I don't think he spawns in any particular place, or that he has a PH. I think he just randomly occupies the spot of another one of the bugs.

I'll second that. Found him today while going to the reishicyben. Didn't drop anything that a normal shiknar doesn't all the time, though. Seems to be a rare spawn, since I spent around 5 levels in that area with several alts and this is the first time I've seen him.
Still there
# May 21 2002 at 9:35 AM Rating: Default
Killed him today. On my way back from dropping the big shroom and there he was. Dropped the leg plates.

any new info on this guy?
# May 12 2002 at 4:58 PM Rating: Default
I've camped this guy for a while, and haven't seen him once yet. I have repeatedly killed his supposed placeholder, it definitely has a spawn time difference from the rest, but the Ch'ktok never appears... Does it still exist here?
RE: any new info on this guy?
# Sep 08 2002 at 5:08 PM Rating: Default
Aye he is still around. Killed him today he dropped armplates 8ac 3svf
RE: any new info on this guy?
# Aug 04 2002 at 8:51 AM Rating: Default
Yeah he still exists, and your correct his spawn time is a bit longer than the 3 around him.

Did thid camp yesterday with my mage/necro great xp of course like all the zone, was there all day got him to spawn 2wice, dropped bupkus both times =p.

If you dont know, the camp is like on your way to the big shroom room, take the second right, theres an area by the water with 4 shiknars, the one in the middle is the PH for this guy.

New Item From Ch'ktok?

Fatbas Shadowstar and I were camping the giant shroom and Ch'ktok the other morning. (I had previously camped Ch'ktok for about 25-30 place holder kills that night without ONE single spawn.

I finally get him to spawn after about 5-7 place holder kills and he drops nothing.

However as we were getting ready to leave camp for better exp I killed the place holder again and it was just about time to respawn so I waited, checked and low and behold ANOTHER. So it was Ch'ktok, placeholder then another Ch'ktok.

He died again and dropped:
Herikol's Katar
Magic Item Prim/Sec
H2H Dmg:8 Atk Delay: 28 Ac:2
Dex: +2, Agil: +2, HP: +20, sv cold +2
MNK BST
HUM, BARB, TROLL, OGRE, IKSAR, Kitty kitties

I sent a picture into Allakhazam since they didn't have it listed in their equip list.

If anyone wants to check it out. I'm on the DRo Server.

#Anonymous, Posted: Mar 29 2002 at 2:14 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) The location posted by ironic seems right. there is a 4 spawn with a shroom in the area also. Then a connecting hall way has a roamer and another shroom. I killed the center spawn which the actual time is around 10min. and 30 secs. for 8 consecutive times with no Ch'Ktok. Given that I wasted 1hr and 20mins doing that I left. They are green to a 28th. One shroom conned lblue though.

Other Drops and Info
# Feb 26 2002 at 12:22 PM Rating: Decent
Just to let you guys know I have camped him for over 18 hours now and never seen the breastplate but I'm sure I'll get it at some point. He drops the legplates pretty often and I found out last night he also drops Ch'ktok armplates AC 8 +3 SV Fire. As near as I can tell the best way to get him to spawn is to kill the roaming bug in the hall a few minutes before the place holder spawns again. He is a random spawn when you kill the place holder but I have found that you have a much better chance of him spawning if you kill the roamer before he spawns again. Good luck and happy hunting. =)
The real info on Ch'ktok
# Feb 06 2002 at 2:19 AM Rating: Default
This one is a static spawn with a placeholder.. If you go into the large cavern that is half filled with water (underwater tunnel connects to where Reishicyben spawns) you'll see that there are 4 Outcast Shiknar spawns here. The one in the center of the cavern is on a different spawn timer than the other Shiknar.. instead of the approximate 6 minutes spawn time of all the other Shiknar this one spawns in approximately 10 minutes.. If you hang around and kill this spawn for a long enough time you'll get Ch'ktok to spawn..

I managed to get him to spawn once and he dropped Ch'ktok Plate Leggings (not exactly sure of name since I'm writing this from work).. 10 ac, +5 sv fire... plate classes only, a very bright blue color (close to the color of the Shiknar themselves) I've heard from another player that he also drops a breastplate, 17 ac and I believe it was +10 sv fire.. not too great but nice for those twinks out there (or if you are at a level to get exp from Ch'ktok and haven't already gotten better armor)
RE: The real info on Ch'ktok
# Feb 22 2002 at 11:12 AM Rating: Default

Breastplate is Ch'ktok Breastplate. Medium sized races, plate classes only. AC17 Save Fire 8. I was camping the nearby mushroom, and kept running over to kill this thing every ten minutes. Killed him or the placeholder every ten minutes for three hours. Got Ch'ktok three times, and he only dropped the breastplate once, the other times, it was just legs, wings, and the basic stuff. So unless you have a whole lot of time to camp, or are getting good xp off the regular bugs, this realy isn't worth it. No idea what the plate is worth either. :)

I was hunting with a partner today, when this guy pop in the middle of the camp. After healing a medding a bit we pull the mob. Its a easy kill, and of course no rare drop (just legs like the regular mobs).
Where at?
# Dec 25 2001 at 5:17 PM Rating: Decent
Ive been through the caves a few times and haven't seen this one. At level 40, nothing will agro so I can explore abit. The regular guys drop wings, throwing daggers, and stackable legs and can be found in the NW area of the caves.
