Arelith

Hi, not sure if a Bug or a Feature .. but I stumbled upon a Black Slaad spawn at a certain place in Arelith .

While I love challenges.. this may actually be too much considering it was not a boss spawn and the server lvl cap is 30 with server low-magic items power.

Seems like a remnant of a long-gone era on Arelith server.

I think that is for reason since there are posions which request inner parts of the mentioned creature.

I know the black slaad you mean, and my epic, level 29 monk barely survived it - not to mention, it took me fifty million years to kill it and I had to run away twice to heal, and pop a -pray.

But it's not the slaad. That WHOLE area is completely nuts.
Evidence:
(Spoilers)

The black slaad in that area is relatively hard, but not impossible. I've killed it a few times, it does take forever. But I don't mind that area in general, though I would say it's likely the most difficult area in that place on the server, so entering with caution is wise. And those thralls spawn elsewhere in the server too, so don't see much issue with them.

The only thing I would wonder is why the Slaad is there in general. Since that place is filled with vampires and the like, I see zero *purpose* for the slaad being there.

I also thought that thing seemed oddly out of place from a thematic standpoint when I was there on a previous character.... also those vampires must have claws like a raptor and fangs like a sabretooth tiger. The first time I ever ran into them turned into a Benny Hill special /real/ fast.
