Firstly, I saw him during the day NE of the gypsies and The Silver Griffon and GrimFeather were also up.
His stops were all about 30 seconds.
I began following him as he went SW.
He stopped at -1212, 3053, -0.62 and paused for 30 seconds.
He then went SE for a short distance and paused at -1340, 2941, -0.62.
He then turned NE back towards the gypsy camp and traveled above the camp at -278, 49, -7.94. In game was 9 PM

He turned SE and went through the gypsy camp for a long walk until he pass the druid rings and stopped at -2852, -1934. 4.77
He then went a tad south (I believe it was south) for a very short distance and stopped at -3163, -1779, -7.94. In game was 12 AM.
He then went east again, passing the druid ring on the south, and walked a long ways until stopping at -202, 2323, -7.94.
I believe this was past a farm on the far west of zone, no farmer aggro as he walked right through the buildings.
He faces N but flips to head south until -2850, 3107, -0.62 (near where he was at the beginning of this post).
He then faces South but went ENE (Note, as with other stop points he shared this one with a mob, who also went NE, but Korvik was the one on the left of the two, as you went NE (the furthest west of the 2).)
At -2097, 733, 7.41 he stopped and faces ENE but then continues NE.
He stopped at -1333, -261, -7.94, faced NE but went WSW.
At -2529, 2813, -0.62 he stops, faces N but goes NE.
At 520, -50, -7.94 he stops, faces NE but goes SW.

I saw 3 mobs at this spot at this time but I had to log, and did so invis. This was at 01:17 PDT. I awoke and saw I had killed the Silver Griffon at 10:25:27 PDT and Korvik the Cursed at 10:30:27 PDT.
Interestingly, they both aggroed the same exact time at 10:23, it took me several minutes to riposte.

I stayed at the spawn point facing SW to see if any mob that came there went SW. None did, but at 11:30 I watched the Silver Griffon spawn at that spot, and I killed him. 1 hour and 5 minutes after the last time I killed him, apparently.

At 12:09 it appears a griffon came and went SW, who knows.

I didn't kill anything but The Silver Griffon, who sees invis, shares that spawn point with him. Broke invis is why Kurdrick saw me at the exact same minute they were both there.
He never de-spawned for me and turned werewolf.

At 11:44 PDT a highland lion hit there and went WSW, not directly SW.

Maybe stand at 522, -55, -7.94 and kill everything that gets there b/c I don't know if I have the patience to see if he has a PH that follows the same exact path, as I witnessed in Rathe Mountains the PH and named shared similar, but not precisely the same path.

I posted on the Grimtooth page here that expanded upon Grimtooth a little more, but I'll leave a comment here as well in case people don't see it.

Korvik the Cursed and Grimtooth are actually on the same spawn cycle. This actually makes a lot of sense since Korvik is "cursed" and both him and Grimtooth drop Iron Shackles. They're the same being!

While watching the spawns, I noticed Korvik always spawned during the day and Grimtooth always spawned during the night. The earliest I had Korvik spawn was 9 AM. The latest I had Korvik spawn was 6 PM. The earliest I had Grimtooth spawn was 12 AM. The latest I had Grimtooth spawn was 5 AM. My theory is Korvik is a day spawn and Grimtooth is a night spawn.

The respawn shows up on track after around 4 minutes and 51 seconds.

Here's what the spawn cycle looked like for me:
  • Grimtooth x4
  • Korvik the Cursed x3
  • a borer beetle x6
  • a griffawn x6
  • a griffon x1
  • a grizzly bear x6
  • a lion x6
  • a lioness x9
  • a pincer beetle x8
  • a scythe beetle x8
  • a silvermist wolf x6
  • a willowisp x3
That puts the two combined spawning at ~10% of the time. Korvik only dropped shackles for me.

Korvik spawns at the following locations and PH are wisps. what I did was print out a map and mark a circular path at every spot, while tracking for all the wisps in each spot. Kill all the wisps from those spots that wander through the gypsy camp near the tower and he will spawn before you know it:

1) -722 / 50

2) -1110 / 1428

3) -3283 / -938

4) -3174 / 178

5) -1115 / -2101

6) 665 / -2073

7) 958 / -78

8) -3257 / -1838

I also got a spawn at -1059, -1790, -7.19

Seems to some variance. Eastern part of the zone just south of the road leading into EK.

Searching for Korvick
# May 02 2002 at 2:00 AM Rating: Default
I have been searching for him for two nights now, and he hasn't spawned either time. I've had the help of several nice rangers and druids who were in the zone. There has been no luck what so ever. One person said that Korvick might be a placeholder, and all HG's and Wisps in the zone would have to be killed first in order to have the named mob spawn. Any truth behind that, or is he a different case? Basically I'm looking for a general spawn time, and location of Korvick.
Medallion
# Feb 06 2002 at 8:28 PM Rating: Default
Well i've only seen Korvik twice in all the time i've been in NK, and he's dropped the medallion both times... Wish someone knew the real pc on the medallion so I could sell them, but in the meantime I'll just use the medallion to boost my charisma while I am selling to vendors..
Korvic
# Dec 08 2001 at 11:00 PM Rating: Default
Killed him today. GOt the gypsy medallion. 2.3K =P yeah right. I can't seem to sell it for 1k
Seen him a few times
# Nov 30 2001 at 8:35 PM Rating: Default
I am 41st ranger with max tracking seen him a few times wondering near the gyspees. both in Human form and of coarse he was green, waxed him fast but dropped shackles bothtimes the other time he was killed Before I could reach him.
Korvik

I just killed Korvik and I dont know if it is a coicidence (I think it is), but as soon as I killed him a Hill Giant came strutting by. Didn't have time to loot Korvik - too busy running to West Zone wall being chase , lol
Related to Zahal?
# Nov 14 2001 at 4:02 AM Rating: Default
I've been playing EQ for years and saw this guy for the first time tonight. It was daytime in game and he walked by the gypsy camp where I was medding. I caught up with him where he was standing near the EK bridge. No faction hits and he dropped the necklace. Odd thing was, as soon as I killed him, Regis the Reverent spawned. May be a coincidence, I dunno
location

I killed him to day by the bridge to SK he was standing left of the path about 50 paces from the bridge conned blue to me and droped iron shackles. Lvl 19 ranger
#Anonymous, Posted: Jul 26 2001 at 6:53 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) now who would spend ther etime killin this guy if hes a hell of a ***** to kill and that he drops that sucky of items , duh
wanderer?
# Jul 18 2001 at 12:16 PM Rating: Decent
So i assume he is a Wanderer because no one had an exact loc... but where are his where abouts? Someone said by druid rings, others say around guard tower and wizzie spires... WHICH IS IT?
Also is he a rare spawn? I would really love the +9 CHA hehe Thanx for your Time.
RE: wanderer?
# Mar 01 2002 at 12:13 PM Rating: Decent
Was in NK when I spot him on track. First time ever, and I am in NK quite frequently. Loc was somewhere northwest from EK bridge and he was strolling eastwards. Dropped the medallion, too.
RE: wanderer?
# Jul 18 2001 at 7:42 PM Rating: Default

I am also looking for him. From what everyone is saying it looks like he wanders in the area bounded by locations 6, 7, 12, and 13 on the eqatlas map. Of course my opinion will have a lot more weight when I find and slay this sucker. :)
Ezmirella
# Jul 04 2001 at 12:29 AM Rating: Default
The gypsy Ezmirella must like Korvik because she attacked me suddenly when Korvik wandered into the camp. Ezmirella can charm so be careful.
Spawning point and info on the curse
# Jun 26 2001 at 6:07 AM Rating: Default
I saw Korvik the Cursed during night time and he wasn't a werewolf. Instead he was a ghoul.
I'm pretty sure he has the same spawing point as Zahal the Vile, which spawns a bit southeast from the guard tower. Then it starts running to the northwest just by the Gypsy camp. I din't follow Korvik any further, because the temptation to kill it grew too much...
He conned blue at level 39 during night, so I'm under the impression that he is thougher in ghoul form. Good luck to you all!

Just killed Korvik in N Karana at the gypsy camp. I was sitting there healing after a fight and not really paying attention when he attacked me so I can't say which direction he came from. It was in the daytime. Sorry I can't tell you more. He dropped the Iron Shackles.
Hope that helps.
Korvik the Cursed~~
# Jun 06 2001 at 9:01 PM Rating: Decent
Korvik the cursed - wanders from the guardtower/wiz gate to the guard tower down the road .. he walks on the same pattern as the wandering guard. He is fairly rare I have run into him only once. He had the medallion on him.

he is not that hrd to beat if you are a solo 40 druid. I do not remember him casting any spells on me but it has been sometime since I killed him.
#Anonymous, Posted: May 20 2001 at 2:19 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) So, basically, nobody has the slightest idea where/when/how he spawns....
