b. Simone the Seductress
------------------------------------------------------------------------
HUMAN NAME: Simone the Inconspicuous
LOCATION: Un’goro Crater
RECOMMENDED: Magic Dust, Demonslaying Elixir, Nature Protection Potion
PATROL: Simone is a female Troll that walks around the southwest region
of the Crater with a wolf pup by her side.
POSITIONING: Make sure you find a nice open area with few mobs. Slay the
nearby mobs and get ready.
ATTACKS: Simone puts a debuff on you that reduces your ranged attack
power by 1400 and can cast a lightning spell that deals 800 damage. She
also has a pet felhound that fights alongside her.
WEAKNESS: Her melee attacks aren’t strong. Viper Sting silences her and
the felhound pet is susceptible to Freezing Trap.
Before the encounter, run to Westfall and farm the air elementals for
Dream Dust. Also, have another Hunter in your party enable Aspect of the
Wild and then Feign Death to keep him/herself out of combat. You’ll also
want to use Aspect of the Monkey to minimize the amount of damage you
take.
One of the keys to this fight is keeping the felhound out of the fight.
Lay down a Freezing Trap and when you start firing at Simone, use a
Concussive Shot to slow her down so that only her pet will step into the
Trap. You now have 20 seconds (or 26 with Clever Traps) to deal with
Simone. If the Trap wears out, quickly hit the felhound with the Dream
Dust, which will put it to sleep for 30 seconds. This should buy you
just enough time for you to kill Simone. The pet doesn’t have to die.
The other key to this fight is keeping her from unleashing that
lightning spell, which has a long casting time. The moment you see her
casting, quickly back off and Viper Sting her to silence her. If you
have Scatter Shot, it will also cancel the cast but don’t expect
yourself to use it more than once in the fight because of its cooldown.
Because of the debuff she casts on you, your gun/bow becomes useless so
you’ll need to make sure that you have a good melee weapon. Aspect of
the Wild and the Nature Protection Potions will help you survive if you
manage to let a few lightning spells slip through.
