If you have either of these, I will be willing to part with MANY of my arts. I have tons of gaunt arts, greater AoAs, godly jewels, Demitel items such as mana barrier and last book of arkkaza. Let me know, I'm willing to give tons for either of these.

Good luck trying to find a Crimson Cincture, find one has become an obsession of mine lately...

1 in 70 chance per peerless boss (Then from there it's about a 1 in 3 chance of getting a special peerless item instead like dread's flute). Some people get lucky though.

can any peerless boss give the crimson? if so, what is the easiest one to do, i guess i'll start farming =p.

Archived topic from AOV, old topic ID:1780, old post ID:11458

Argh, and to think I got one... then the server crashed

Archived topic from AOV, old topic ID:1780, old post ID:11460

Dreadhorn is probably easiest. Or travesty, if you have a really crappy char, but not too crappy. (it mimics your skills/abilities) Actually a trick people use on OSI is attack it with a wep you can't use, like a sword on a fencing char, when it turns to you then use your good wep.

It will eventually refresh itself though but for the time being the plan may work.

Yes. Dreadhorn or travesty are the easiest. Grizzle is a pain to get the keys, Paroxysmus is brutal without a team (No tamers or summons allowed on that one!). Travesty's dungeon isn't the nicest though. A lot of stealthing assasins and secret passageways. You can probably get a team of 2 or 3 going to collect the keys. Dreadhorn's easier to collect the keys but that unicorn can be a whore sometimes if you don't keep a fair distance away from him and distract him from targetting you. Travesty can have varied difficulty, depending on who she decides to turn into.

If you're an uber archer or mage, chances are she'll pull off the same stuff you'd think of trying. Also, her ninjas can be a pain (Word of the wise: Kill the buggers, don't let them go an hide off before they die, they might pop up and DS you at the worst possible time).

Nah you don't need a crappy char, even the best-suited mage can take travesty out...

Travesty has a good arena to fight her in with a lot of cover space which makes it the best arena for a peerless fight (Unlike dreadhorn with that small island).

Altar and I had no trouble doing Travesty. Of course, I died many, many times, and he got all of the keys.

But when it came to Travesty, the only problem I could decipher was dealing with the damned ninjas. Even worse was after Travesty died, we still had hordes of ninjas, so I had to lure them away so Altar could loot the corpse.

Regardless, it wasn't too hard. Dreadhorn isn't bad either if you have enough spare time. The other peerless....I don't know, I've never tried any of the others.

Yeah the summons vanish now when the peerless dies.

Ya the leftover spawn thing was an overlooked problem that we only realized after watching the battle, so that's fixed now. Mind you, if you don't kill the ninjas in the first place, they'll grow in numbers and become a real threat.

The key to paroxysmus is dexxers (Melee, archers may have some issues) with life leeching weapons with mages in the background using arch cure to heal everyone. Although parox does not have any magical capabilities, he hits really hard and it quite possibly the most toxic thing in all of UO. Parox would be considered a medium/hard peerless I think.

Grizzle can suck because of the uber damaging acid and the fact that it has high resists pretty much everywhere. A good percent of the time you won't die to the magic it fires, you'll die by accidently stepping into one of those damn puddles of viscous fluid. Grizzle's likely a medium difficulty peerless. The keys take the longest to get as luck always seems to have its way when you're trying to find that one thesis note but the darn thing won't drop.

If you're referring to the evasion delay, that exists on osi but it's 20 seconds as opposed to 10 seconds on aov.

Then you get CCNA notes 2 instead.

Though as a peice of mind, those other funny notes are part of "else if" statement after it checks for regular notes, so they dont decrease the chance of getting real ones.

A couple of people got lucky before the actual peerless loot pack percentages were modified to be accurate (Before, cintures dropped like, all the time). Only a few veterans were lucky enough to witness this when it existed on dreadhorn and paroxysmus.

Think there's a few people who have been lucky enough to get a crimson cinture now with the actual peerless loot packs (Actually think somebody actually owns a dread flute too).

I own a crimson cinture too out of pure luck after dying a good 20 times to jormungand (1 in 70 chance of that happening). When it finally died it had dropped a crimson.

lol that'll teach me to have used a cliloc the first time around. Not to worry though, I'll eventually be going around and cliloc'ing every item that was hard coded in the past. That way the name will both be spelt right and available in different languages.
