Fluxing GemNever mind. Just realized you have to say, "I have come for your gems." to get him to spawn... After that it's a breeze. Just be careful of that mana drain..Ugh, it's a pain.

Just did with a 84 bard, 80 cleric, and 76 mage with 2 tier 3 tank mercs and a tier 3 cleric. This fight sucks... Cleric logged in wizzy and spawned him then got cleric. Merc healers mana doesnt last long but cleric just ran in and promised healed the tanks and ran back out of range. Pretty long and slow fight but doable.
Let me start by saying I 1-boxed the entire mage 1.5 with basically the group listed below. At that time, they were 1-2 levels lower and ~100 AA lighter.
I tried this with 80 mage, 79 sham, 77 war, 76 cleric, 84 wiz.
On the first go, the casters were too close and got nailed by the mana drain. Two casts (one from clr one from shm) of RC4 did not cure it. The war didn't have any problem holding aggro or tanking, but the max hit on the war with CS18/CA16 15%shielding was 2670 in SoF/SoD group gear (23kHP,3400AC). The casters were oom very fast (about 85% mob health) and right before evac, the mob's DPS really increased and the war went from 60% health to dead.
Regroup, had lvl 85 rog join (out of group with merc healer). Sham put langor on war and sat back out of AE with pure spirit and GRC ready, mage sat at max range for Bolt of Molten Dross, cleric sat at max range for Sacred Light. War engaged, mage pet and rog on the back, mage chain nuked bolt until GoM proc then ran in to drop Rancorous Servant and back out, wizzie chain nuked, cleric healed with light (got cocky, ran in to drop a promise and got hit with drain), sham cured with one cast of pure spirit. Langor wore off just as mob died, so ~7min fight. Rog KS'd group doing 465k, cleric was oom on enrage, wizzie left happy to be done.

Make sure you have SoE/FoE on because I had to use the walls of the ruins to the east to levitate over into the cup to trigger him by saying "I have come for your gems". Nothing else got me high enough and the ruins are a bit away from the cup. I tried to say the phrase outside the cup, but it didn't work. Once I triggered him, he came walking towards the cup from the north. Duoed with an sk and monk. We had two merc healers, but they ran out of mana from his ae so fast that they really aren't worth mentioning as being there. Hope this helps.

I was boxing a cleric for this fight today and was able to keep out of range for the mana tap all but 1 time. I kept OOR, then ran in to HoT and PR, then ran back out. The time i did get hit, I cast cleric AA purify (lvl 1) to cure it before it did any damage. We had more than enough to do the encounter easily, however had things been closer I would have timed my runs to be right after the mana AE goes off as he would cast the greater sand curse of life every 30-40 seconds.
Note he cast all of the following during the encounter:
1 x Elnerick's Entombment of Ice
2 x Shock of Magic
1 x Wildmagic Strike
2 x Ice Spear of Solist
4 x Telaka (all 4 casts were in a row)
2 x Chaos Immolation
1 x Atol's Spectral Shackles
6 x Greater Sand Curse of Knowledge
5 x Greater Sand Curse of Life

Adding a write-up of my own after reading what others have done. Attempted a 3 box of this a few nights ago, after some 30 minutes of battling I wiped at 26%. Holyforge discipline added buku dps in addition to slay undead (I'm a pally). Using fast heals only taxed mana pools. Sun Rev's dps is mad when he finally goes oom, which takes much time.
toons were this unbuffed stats
75 pally 13khp 3,3kac 100 avoidance 25% shielding 950 aa
75 shaman 1100 aa 12k mana
70 cleric 7k mana 40 aa
After recovering, I invited a 2.0 rogue and proceeded to own, resulting in a dead Sun Rev and a happy wizzy.

I may have missed it but I didn't see anything in the posts about curing the curse. Is regular RC enough or must you have RGC? Also, would say cleric AA Respledent Cascade cure this?
Thanks for any help.

Killed to day with 1 grp, 2 people boxing. War (15k HP 3k AC unbuffed) Shammy, Clr, Bard, Wiz Chanter. War and Shammy CoA geared rest Qvic / Time / TSS Tier 2.
Cleared the area around the cauldron, Wiz ran to the cauldron and triggered "/sa I have come for your gems", then War pulled when he was next to the cauldron.
Had war tank him a bit away from the rest to avoid the AE, did get hit a few times any way but cured it fast most of the time . . . Shammy and Clr to turns on healing, shammy took over at 20% when Clr ran OOM due to the AE maindrain DoT. Shammy (main toon with better focus) stayed OOR the whole fight. All in all really NP but good focus helps.

What would be recommended as a minimum for a Time/Qvic/TSS tier 2 gear raid. I see people saying theyve done with 1 or 2 groups but what should I bring, how many of what.. Any fellow wizards that have been stuck in this type of situation?
Any comments would be helpful.
Any comments would be helpful.
It depends on a couple of factors: We one grouped this encounter, but most of us are were DP/DK gear with highest instrument Mode Bard with all instrument aa's.
For the the level of gear that you are asking about, I would say 2-3 groups. What you definitely needs is at least 1 bard, and plenty of people that can cure the curse component. The AE's are a pain for people with low hps b/c agro will bounce around. If you have the max stat's veteran AA I would suggest using it. Getting your resists to cap will help you resist the prismatic parts. If you have at least 1 1.5-2.0 cleric in each group you should be ok. The spell slow makes CH rot nearly impossible so lots of spam heals are needed. If you get things cured, 3 balanced groups with good DPS should do you. This is a burn fight, so go all out on dps and discs.

We've done this fight about 6 times now and prior to tonight we had been just putting him against zone wall and going hit for hit with him. A few lessons we learned:
1) there isnt a wall in the zone that will block the AE (since its an outdoor zone and walls wont block aes in outdoor zones, from what they say)
2) the ruins close to where he spawns will not work for a place to corner him (he can and does get pushed through the wall there).
The first 4 times we've done this we have taken extreme casualties, finishing with anywhere from 5 to 15 people left standing out of about 40 (using the strat of putting him at zone wall, trying to keep clerics out of range of his ae, and letting the melees go to town on him). Last night we did him two times in a row after wiping the on the first attempt using our normal strat.
The next time we engaged we made it a simple ranged only fight with the MA and SA being the only ones in combat with him(no pets because of push problems). Healers had to stick to quick heals so they could stay out of range of the AE but we finished it twice taking 2 deaths each time from necros that over dotted. We fought him next to the ruins where he spawns. I think someone else said it earlier, pretty much if you keep your healers out of his mana drain ae range it doesnt matter what you bring for dps really.

Ok, didn't expect this guy at all. Came to plateau to farm some condensed flame pieces to finish up fletching. Unfortunately he agros if you pull any mobs too close to him. Oh well.... no VT shard, no condenced flame.... waste of a zone IMO.

Wait...does this mean he is groupable?!
We found out by accident that he was undead. Our raid was doing this event as a ranged fight when one of our paladins landed a Slay -- using an arrow! You could hear all our paladins pause for a second, then just about all of them asked at once, "Is he undead?!" After that, all the paladins tossed caution to the wind and charged him. He dropped fast. =)

Repop time on his little script is exactly 1 hour, was tested after a raid which got one of our wizards their 1.5. Note this is from the time he is spawned the initial time, not from his death.
Also He does not aggro for about a minute after he is spawned, giving the wizard enough time to abscond out of the pot

After both tash and malos, I could slow him using Balance of Discord. He still resisted about 1 of each 3 casts of BoD though.

The Order of Draconis (Dro) smoked this guy finally on try #4. Strategy was simple: pop vet aa, squish this guy in a corner on top of the plateau (the stone ruins is a nice place to do this), have clerics heal on the edge of his 3k DD proc (approximately every 60 seconds this will proc on the MA), ease into the DPS ( no need to burn this guy at 90% as long as your healers can keep you up), and viola! Enjoy your reward!

Oh yah, I forgot to mention we had approximately 50 EP/Time geared people in the raid and we only lost 1 person.

Tried this guy 3 separate times now and finally developed a strat that may work on the next attempt depending on the DPS. Pin this guy up against a solid wall so he cannot be pushed towards raid. Once mana drain dot hits raid, you are toast, no matter how many clerics you bring along. Once he is pinned, go all out melee and DPS keeping casters and DPS ranged at all times. With luck, you can wack away the mill or so hp's and get your reward. Maybe I will have better luck next time.

Just curious, I have read that annul magic removes this guys sick dots, but does it remove all the buffs prior to the dot? Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
When u try this guy make sure u have uber uber uber burners just use manaburn/disc all dmg u can do get 3 good tanks to be sure and get like 6 MBG healers druid/cleric
JUST do all the dmg u can before u get wacked or go oom

57 Cleric, just heading to plateau to solo some easy DB undead.... 1736, 2043, 1867, LOADING PLEASE WAIT. Never even saw him coming. Grab invis potion, run back to ramp and he camping my corpse, one spell and Im at bind point again. Hired neccy to summon corpses, guess I won't be hunting VT shards there. Thanks for ruining the zone Sony. :( /sigh
You can go to the top of the plateau without going where he is. There's a few spots on the east and south side where its shallow enough to run up if you take a few minutes of looking around.

Just my poor luck story here.
I was up in the NW corner by the caves. I had just charmed an animal pet and he came charging out the ravine. I died instantly almost. Right after my pet. My jaw was sort of hanging open.
He was not there the last few days. I'm like WTF?
So I come back for my corpse run, and am checking track all the time, nothing, so I pop up out of the ravine I was following where my corpse is I think, and get killed again. I didn't even see him.
I got a necro to get my corpses.
I'm afaid to go back.

We tried to take him down twice one night, and we unable to do so. I think if we had stayed for another try, we could have succeeded.
We had about 45 in the raid. Out of that, maybe 15 were EP flagged. Overall, a great group of people, but not necessarily uber geared.
Directly south of his building, at the bottom of the plateau, there is an outcropping of rocks. We set our tanks up there. Our healers were all up on top of the plateau directly above them. DPS was situated either behind the rock to the West of the tanks, or directly out, and over a slight hill (first one place then the other for our tries).
Since when we first tried him, he jumped and killed us, he got trained out to the center of the zone, so this setup worked nicely. In our next attempt, we will have someone pull him out, zone out, and we will set up. He doesnt move back to his house, so this is safe to do.
Pets will kill you on this. With this setup, pets pushed him up the hill, and he hit our healers with both drains, and we were oom and dead in 30 seconds. Prior to that, we were able to get him to 80% pretty easily.
When you do him, make sure you have a good force. 10k tank is all we had on him, and he didnt have any problems. Since you need to heal right on the edge of his AE, you absolutely must watch push. Letting him get to either your healers or your dps, you will fail.
Also, one thing we saw, and we werent even sure it was true...Torment of Body.....Does it truely wipe the target off of the aggro list? It seemed that as soon as our tank would get hit with this, he wasnt targeted any more.
If anyone has any better tactics, let me know. Or just changes to this one.

Ran into him while I was hunting a few days back (easy DB mobs for me to kill at level 50-odd). He took out my pet (lvl 49 BST pet) in one attack, I had Virtue on, 3.5k hp, one cast of that Sand Curse did for me aswell... Thought to myself ''I'll be back for you when I've got a few more levels, sonny'' - having read this, maybe I'll let him off this once, first offence and all that... He was at the bottom of the ramp to the plateau - I'd seen him once before, lurking about near the zone-in from The Grey, didn't get close enough to him to wake him up that time though.
He killed me...stumbled across him
I have been camping the ruins on the plateau to kill the Knight (If I cna ever get that bugger to spawn) and along came a raidng guild today (Inny Server) and stepped in to spawn the Elite SR. I have kept my 25 Ranger camped on the Plateau to use tracking to check for the Knight being up. It is my 65 Paladin doing the killing.
I watched a raid force of 40 people (in zone) wipe down to 10, reform and retry to wipe again.
They left after that.
I went back to PoK to pick up KEI and Virtue, did some basics, and came back, camped to check for mobs up. I came up on my ranger, Invis still up, and saw the Elite SR visually. I backed off and checked who was in zone (no one). I tracked to see what mobs were up and the Elite was NOT on track, even though I was in visual range of him. I retried it 4 more times, camped, came back and tried it again. Same effect - The spawned Elite did NOT come up on track.
I am using the in-game default UI, so there can be no glitch from a UI. I watched a raid wipe on him twice so I KNOW he is there.
Maybe just a bug, but a dangerous one to the wandering hunter who comes after a wiped raid.
I watched a raid force of 40 people (in zone) wipe down to 10, reform and retry to wipe again.
They left after that.
I went back to PoK to pick up KEI and Virtue, did some basics, and came back, camped to check for mobs up. I came up on my ranger, Invis still up, and saw the Elite SR visually. I backed off and checked who was in zone (no one). I tracked to see what mobs were up and the Elite was NOT on track, even though I was in visual range of him.

A lot of the epic mobs for 1.5 and 2.0 are not showing up on track. Looks like they meant it to be like that. Fun wow.

Any guess on his hitpoint total?
Manaburn (9492 dmg) dropped him to 98%, so somewhere between 500K and 1 million hp

Is for the wizard epic.
Go to the cauldron that the aliens are surrounding. Go INSIDE it and SIT and /say I have come for your gems. (this is debatable. some report that they could do it from right outside the cauldron. others could stand. some reported having to kill a few revanants before this would work at all) You need to levitate and use the rocks near by to get inside.
A voice booms from the center of the cauldron. 'These gems are sacred, important to our survival, you shall not have them'
If you are a non-wizard and try it u get 'Unfortunately my friend, you are not a student of the sorcerous arts, and cannot be trusted with information so vital to our cause'
Spawns: Elite Sun Revenant Level 75 Wizard Sun Revanant. He spawns just south of the plateau and makes his way up to the cauldron where he stay. He does circle around the cauldron a bit. He IS Kill on Sight. He DOES see invis. He is immune to run speed changed. Summons.
He was casting spells on me:
Elnerick's Entombment of Ice
Shock of Magic
Draught of Fire (this being his favorite)
Annul Magic
Talaka
His AEs:
Greater Sand Cure of Knowledge
Greater Sand Cure of Life
For those too lazy to look, they are PBAES with -325 resist adjusts, prismatic.
One is -1000mana a tick+decrease spell haste 50&%, one is -1000hp a tick+decrease atk by 500. The AE range is only 150. The can stack with each other. They lasted for 18 seconds. Remove Curse, Pureblood, and RGC did NOT remove it. However, annul magic removed it.
He PROCS Torment of Body
1: Decrease HP when cast by 3000
2: Decrease Hitpoints by 300 per tick
3: Accuracy Amount(-25)
4: Decrease Effective Casting Level by 100
5: Increase Curse Counter by 24
I got hit (on a necro with max Def aa) doubled. He hit for 1483 and 456. Necro has 1122 AC.
He then flurried:
1483
1541
1696

Alternatively casts the AE "Greater Sand Curse of Life" which has the same stats except 1000 HP/tick dot and I think a melee slow.
