When Blackfeather Raid Leader spawns, there is a zone wide emote: A dissonant screeching from many voices resonates across the mesa.

In-game location:
+1340, +2969, +50

I singled him, by pulling them all to the Roost zone line, waited for the Leader to get there, then zoned in. Zoned back out immediately, and Leader just starting to wonder back, pulled him.

All appear immune to Root / Snare.

I think you're suppose to kill the others first though, 'cause I did almost no melee damage to him. Biggest hit was <100, and my normal crits top out over 1K with minimums close to 100.

Chained Nature's Entropy and made no difference, so it's not a Melee mitigation buff, and doubtful it's purely AC, since even on Emp Ssra, with crappy dmg bane weapons I was doing more damage.

Yther Ore.

==== EDIT ====
There are six adds by the way, some with pets. Often a 7th from a wandering a harpy raider.

I killed again, this time killing the adds first. I did full damage after all 6 were dead, so it's part of the script.

Also, neither Raid Leader or adds are affected by Harmony line of spells.

He is hard to miss, as he stands north of the entrance to BF Roost, right out in the open, on top of a little mesa, right next to the side of the zone. He is also way down hill from the BF Roost zone line, as the BFR ZL is so high on the wall of the zone. He stands in the middle of a circle of minions and their pets. He isn't at the top of the track list sorted by level, but he is near the top. If he isn't on track it is because he has been killed. He is present on track when the zone comes up, and there is no waiting for him to spawn after the zone comes up. I killed this mob about every day for a month to get the Blackfeather Raider Bauble twice. The very first time I killed him, he dropped the aug, which went to my necro, and it took the rest of the month for me to get one for the ranger. I killed him almost every day in that month. Someone else may have beat me to him a time or two, but I got the kill the next day. Persistence pays off. I would estimate his repop timer at 24 to 28 hours from what I remember. He didn't repop after exactly the same amount of time each time, so had a little variability. It certainly isn't random, and there is no place holder to kill to get him to pop, as there is no mob present in his absence. My recollection is that if you kill him, but not his minions he may not pop until the minionns are killed, and then it may take 24 hours for him to show back up. Lesson: kill the mininos also if you want the boss to come back. Since the time I was killing him daily, I have rarely seen him up. Someone else has him timed, and is killing him shortly after he pops on my server. If you want his aug, you gotta be in Goru`kar Meaa finding something worthwhile to kill, or make frequent visits to G Mesa. There are a bunch of aug quests in G Mesa to occupy your time while waiting for him to pop. Most of the augs are best for twinks, but you can decide. Tracking is a big help in finding this guy. With Three hundred tracking I can track him from the GH porter zone in spot. Alternatively you could zone back in and out of BF Roost and look down hill, or track him by zoning in form either the Steppes or Sunderrock Springs.

when everyone says he is down from the Roost ZL a tad - there are 3 or 4 little mesa's with griffons on them - when I saw him - he was on the north western most mesa of griffons up against the hillside.....I wasnt sure I could take him and the adds so I went on and killed Skelet.

He stands with about 8 "a blackfeather raider" in front of the Blackfeather Roost zoneline at the bottom of the hill on top of a plateu.

You have to kill the adds first or someone kite the adds while a tank maintains agro. He can be hit for full from the backside, but once all the adds are dead he can be killed normally as well.

From what I've witnessed, he's a random spawn along the lines of the Blacklegion brigade that is near the Sunderrock zone line.
Bugged?

Is this mob bugged? I have been looking for him for a week, checking several times a day. The only sign of him I saw, were 3 fo the Blackfeather Raiders standing clear over by bear cave in the south part of zone, nowhere near the posted spawn point. I /bug'd it, dunnno if it is bugged or not, but couldn't hurt.

Anyone have updated info?

Anyone have the /loc of exactly where it spawns. Is it on the hillside up high or Down low /loc would be helpful.

Anyone know the respawn timer on him.

24 hours or less, I've killed him two nights in a row before. Also worth noting is that these are non root/snarable as well as non pacifiable.
Soloable?
# Dec 12 2006 at 7:46 PM Rating: Decent
Is this able to be soloed by a 64 beastlord with aproxamitly 7.5k hp?

Probably not. There's the raidleader and six raiders, plus 4 or 5 pets. The leader gets weaker as the raiders die, but is basically invulnerable (with spell reflect) when they're all up.

They also are all linked, but the raiders return to their spawn before the leader does. I was able to aggro with my SK and FD, then catch the raiders in sets of three. It was still tough with a 70 cleric/51 SK combo, but manageable.
