Spawned for me today at 173.83, -699.54, 3.77. Was static, no real threat to a 65 Druid and J1 Warrior Merc.
Not difficult with the advent of defiant gear...

So my fiance and I took this guy out last night, with adds on us I might add, in about 10 mins or so. I tanked him as a 56 ranger. We had a 56 J-1 healer merc and a J-1 tank 'skeletal protector' merc. She, at this point, is a 51 wizard. He didn't hit real hard, but had a ton of hp. The adds were more of a nuisance than he was. This is definitely a mid fifty groupable fight now. Probably a group a 50 levels across the board could take him, as long as the cleric has a good pile-o-mana.
Easy kill

Had my Ranger up in Hate looking for an SEoC for Epic. Ran across this guy and I can say.. he's very tall!! Scared the crap out of me. Merc went in and started tanking. I popped Trueshot and started shooting arrows, literally seconds later BAM!! he dropped. I'm looking around for a wizzy or someone who might have helped, then I looked at my combat window.. HEADSHOT!
Gotta love the Ranger.

Easy fight with 66 Necro+J1 Healer merc. I tanked him the entire time, max hit on my crappy AC was like 180. Resisted Horror and cannot be snared/rooted.

About 5 minute fight. Took him out with my 68 sk. Hits like a wuss. I thought he dropped other items other than blade. Tall Mfer.

Was hoping to root and shoot him for an SEoC, ended up burning WS and going toe to toe. Turns out he's immune to all run speed changes (snare and root).

66 magi and 58 chanter took a few minutes to take this one down, ok so he mussed up my chanter's hair and I think I broke a nail on his pet but all together not that hard a fight just a bit long and tedious but very good exp. Only bad part was we didn't have anyone in Hate who needed the drop so it had to rot away... no pun intended
Want to raise Defense skill for your caster toon ?

As a mage who negelected his Defense skill for a long time, I try & pull this clown each time I can when I go to PoH.
He's dark blue to 69 but only hits for 80ish... Just ignore his pathetic pet, get in melee range and back off to let pet take aggro back when you've had enough. rinse & repeat. Gives between 5-6% AAxp too and goes down really easily. It's even easier with a healing partner
soloed

Soloed this mob with a 66 pally with 543 AA. Didn't use Lay on Hands but used every bit of mana I had as well as every bit of health. Very tough fight. Only harm touched me once.

As a lvl 63 mage who has hunted in Hate way to many times (epic, marsingers quest), I ran into this for the first time. He conned yellow to a 63 mage with 52 AAs. The fight lasted maybe 3 mins, healed pet more than I was able to cast on him, but he went down pretty easy, and gave me 15% AA xp too
Easy
# Jun 29 2004 at 1:58 PM Rating: Decent
Took him down with a level 63 mage, 65 mage and 63 enchanter with ease, didnt lose 40% of mana casting on him. Took him out again with 59 drood, 63 mage and 63 enc and again mage pet tanked him with ease while Black Steel DD mage spell disposed of pet...what can i say, hes easy meat and only good for xp

This guy is a joke considering his level. I (lvl 60 ranger) duoed him with just myself and a cleric and no slow. Max hit was 300, but his damage was pathetic to be honest. Looking over his hits I think he missed me more than he actually hit me. This was with 1003ac, which is nothing special.

He is located on that little promontory just in front of the ramp leading to 2nd floor..

He stands still and seems to have quite a weak agro range. Unconfirmed too :)

Dropped him a few days ago on Veeshan with a small hate trip for mini bosses (guild needs some epic pieces, and some quick caster/shammy temporary gear)

Vital Info is:
Hitpoints: Approximately 32-35,000 (took 2-3 minutes for 11 people to kill)

Meele: Minimum: 30 ish
Average: 90-120 ish
Maximum: 173

This is as a level 60 Ranger with 1 point of AA mitigation (only form of mitigation change 2% or so the AA list states, plate users would likely get different mileage on him)

Im not sure if he was slowed or not, regardless, don't need to slow him anyway, extremely easy mob.

I am a Tunare Ranger and have this sword availeable for a free MQ to the first Karana Ranger who needs it on Veeshan, just give me a tell.

Oh yes, my vital stats tanking wise.

Ac: 1092 Unbuffed
Hp: 2607 Unbuffed

He or She is a DE Shadow Knight in Plate (male) or Chain (female). Opens up with a nasty HT 1000 - 1100. The mob is so tall that it will not fit in the gate room.

Dropped the silver blade of root and a ruby crown (sell loot)
Real easy

You know, for a level 63+ mob, you'd expect more of a challenge from him. Guess the hardest part is that if you pull him, you also usually pull a train of his buddies :)
HT
# Sep 17 2002 at 7:47 PM Rating: Decent
his HT was between 1000 and 1100
Too easy....
# Sep 06 2002 at 12:12 PM Rating: Decent
We killed this guy tonight. He conned red to me at 60 so lvl seems right but he went down in less than a minute. I was expecting some sort of challenge.

Killed him twice so far. The second time he came out of nowhere when I pulled hate for my first time. I was pulling through the cleric house to the west wall camp. I suspect he is in the east side of the zone, halfway up or so.

First time I saw him was after he wiped some other group where they were pulling at zone in, and again aggroed on us while clearing the cleric house. I am fairly sure he has a large aggro radius since no one seems to spot him before he is pulled. Wasn't too hard to kill him alone.

His skeleton pet was light blue at 54, which I think makes it around 35-38th roughly.

Not to bad.

Killed him today ..We were on first floor in front of throne..If I remeber correctly he was pulled after Rancor if that gives any indication of where exactly he spawns..I personally do not know as I have never pulled Hate..

He came with a pet ,I never heard anyhting about an HT but I think it is safe to assume that he probably had one..

He Rampaged but no enrage and went down pretty fast I am guessing he has old world hp and AC as I was hitting high on him and often as if he was a blue mob...

Pretty easy guy imo and he seems to be the hardest part of the Ranger quest..
