Leveling the Artifact:


Strategy:

Location:  Keres is approximately at 6k, 59k Arbor Glen.  - Goshikkyo and Lawful

Next to Arbor Glen zoneline (the zoneline that is shared with Green Glades), there are ruins with a lone gorgon in it, named Keres inside the templeish. She will polymorph you and stuns you, but she doesn't hit too hard.

The thing you need to look out for is if you have a bonedancer (heaven forbid), and them using their pets on her, will AGGRO SENTINELS! Be sure to tell your bonedancer to get lost or to kill their pets...knowing how stubborn they are, hehee.

Anyways, back to the battle...this will be straight up melee, I don't think magic works, because I always see the casters we have melee her. Hehe, maybe they just want to get polymorphed.  Nov 24 2003

Magic works if you use MW.  Pets worked fine, they did not draw extra agro.  I would suggest have the healers back, and keep her up at the house where she spawned. 
She lifetaps like nothing else for 650 with max resists.  After a while she stops lifetapping.
She was casting AE at close range, so stand back.  Don't hit MW right away, wait until agro is totally controlled by a tank.
She won't chase, so you can back off of her.
We had 2 heroes, one of them is shield spec, 1 warden with pbt, couple chanters, and 1 bard and 1 healer.  Shield hero was keeping agro and everyone else was assisting him and healing him.
Took 15 - 20 min to kill her.   Jan 20 2004
- Lawful and Goshikkyo

Tips:

Respawn:  I am not sure like 4-8 hours.  Dec 22 2003

ML10 sorc solo (with cleric bot) did Wing's dive encounter in under 4 minutes. No aggro from sentinels only hard part was the snakes she spawned as she was below 10%   Oct 29 2004
- Nup

Was able to take with 2 a 50 Shammy (nonbot) ML7 and a 50 Warrior ML7.
Kill took 50 mins.
   LifeTap was a pain in the hiney it tapped all through fight and came up to 10% twice after being under 2%... So it can be done with only 2.  May 2 2004

Killed Keres with 5 people: 50 arms, 50 minstrel, 50 paladin, 2 50 clerics (one was a bot), and a 47 friar. It took about 15 minutes to kill and we got the pants.  Mar 30 2004

If you use bleed styles on Keres it will cause snakes to spawn to fight for her, the same will happen if a group member dies to her, from the blood of the characters death snakes will appear to aid in Keres defense.   Also, my paladin activated these pants and got them in plate, so it's not just studded like the icon represents.  Dec 8 2003
