You'd have to ask Sony that. Those links are to the offical item listings on eq2players. However, if you dheck out the Sony job listings they're looking for new folks to manage the website stuff. <div></div>

I got the najena discovery on gi of the saracen, and it is graphically like a dumb leather thulzite tunic. Yeah, that ugly [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn] green/. Most dissapointing =(

[zabor]

"Gi of the Ashen Disciple - There's a post over in the bruiser forum with a lovely pic of this Gi. Unfortunately the poster bought it off the Fence and has no idea where to get it."It drops off the ashen disciples in pof. The place around the tree on the island for the resident of ro quest update is a good place to hunt for it, from what i've heard.

<DIV>The only T6 Gi's I have seen in DoF are the Rujarkian Woven Gi (which I wear) and the Gi of the Ashen Disciple. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>While the latter Gi looks fantastic its mitigation is very low.  From searching the official database there doesn't seem to be any Fabled T6 Gi's that have been discovered yet.  It certainly would be an improvement if we could at least buy a T6 Legendary tailor made Gi (not the first to winge on this I know).</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I assume none of you raiders have found any T6 Fabled Gi's yet?</DIV>

[geospa]

not as of today ... there must be one out there ... i mean for t5 there is the Gi of Madness which in my opinion is still better in stats than what we have now for T6 with Ruj Gi <div></div>

[Gaige]

I'm pretty sure there is a fabled gi out there <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

<P></P>i think gaige knows there is a fabled t6 monk only gi that gives monks more mitigation than bruisers except because it is a gi it won't cause HP drain making guardians usless finally completing his coup-de-etat of making monks the only tank class that truly matters.

[EtrnllyLs]

I've been working to get a "Gi of the Ashen Disciple."  I've fought  some of the Disciples near Shu Fang Qi, and we got quite a few chests but no Gi.  I just read the later post about fighting near the Great Bonzai, and if I am able to get a new group together I'll try out there next.  It's been hard putting groups togetther though becuase no one wants to lower their faction standing with the Ashen Disiples....  I can't say I like lowering it either, but the Ashen Order is the only one I really care about.  I really want that Gi so I'll let you know if I have any luck.

I've been in harpy killing groups, and every once in a while a disciple will wander into the path of an AoE and we either had to run it off or kill it.

Killed a good amount of the Ashen Ds, the Gi didn't drop.But they are still on my farming list. They are good xp, lol.<div></div>

[Kaleyen]

Question, what Gi is obtainable by 1-4 people in their mid 40s or 1-3 people in their lower 50's? I ask cause currently I'm 44, have a few guildies in my same level range, then have a few good friends in their early 50's (51-53) that could help me get a decent Gi. <div></div>

[EtrnllyLs]

<P>Okay, I've had no luck getting the Gi of the Ashen Disciple... by that I mean i can't get anyone to kill the disciples with me....</P> <P>I did however manage to get a Rujarkian Woven Gi the other day.  The Annihilator (in case you are confused his full name is longer but I do not remember it) in the War Room of the Clefts of Rujark does indeed drop it (a good group of 5 around 50 - 54 should be fine for this though he hits hard he is solo so watch for adds).  We killed him somewhere around 12 - 16 times and got 2 Gis (one for my bruiser friend and one for myself).  The catch is that he has place holders... or more accurately he is a place holder for the Warlord and the Warbringer.  They slow down the proccess alot, and they even have longer respawn timers than the Annihilator which gets really old when you realize one of them is up only to notice it is not the Annihilator....  The wanders and other guys in the room should be able to keep you busy while you wait though (every thing here is solo, but social so carefull pulling is good.)</P> <P>To the person who asked about the lower level Gi that one group could get, the Blood Drenched Gi is your only option.  I have one and it was a pain to get....  There are other threads talking about how to get one (Anaspider had a good post) so I will not be going into that here.  HOWEVER,  there are two important things to know that you may not find elsewhere.  First, the Blood Drenched Gi has indeed been fixed and the [No-Zone] tag that was accidentaly added in LU13 has been removed (Thank you to the GM that reimbursed my GI after LU15)  Second, do not waste you time on the 2 lvl 35 named vampires... kill the lvl 36 named vampire.  We killed the first level 35 named vampire well over 50 time and nothing.  We killed the level 36 far less times and got one (would have went for 2nd for my bruiser friend but it was still bugged at that point and disappeared so we gave up quite upset).</P> <P>Hope this helps someone.</P><p>Message Edited by EtrnllyLst1 on <span class=date_text>11-07-2005</span> <span class=time_text>11:37 AM</span>

Unfortunate that the Rujarkian Gi is so poor compared to a rare crafted T5 BP. <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

[EtrnllyLs]

It is not bad compared to a T5 breastplate.  T6 definately has it beat though.  Either way I am wearing mine and will continue to do so.  From what I have heard the Gi of the Ashen Disciple is not even as nice as the Rujarkian.  That said if I get one I will definately be wearing it all of the time.  Stats aren't everything.  I play for enjoyment and wearing the Gi makes me happy... as do the 2-4 questions a night I get about where I found it.  Heh.  Being somewhat unique in appearance this game is something special.

What's the white Gi (not the chainwave Gi) called that the monks in Elddar Grove wear? And where can I get it? I'm sorry if it's listed in the OP, but I don't have access to those urls. <div></div>

ok, suppose I go killing a zillion Ashen Monks to get that Gi, what would it take to restore the faction?

ashen gi drops of the bla bla, cousin of the sea. She spawns if you kill her placeholders on the first island. Basically all the disciples/apprentices fighting each other around the isle. (not the epic ones though). Check soga thread for screenshot <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

There needs to be more Gi's, period. <div></div>

[EtrnllyLs]

<DIV>Thanks for the information Zaboron.  I have a couple questions though...</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>First, is "bla bla, cousin of the sea"  supposed to be a name (I am guessing you put "bla bla" to indicate you didn't remember the first part of the name)?  </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Second, are you talking about the island just north of T'Narev (or how ever you spell that) the one you have to meditate on for one of the Ashen Order quests?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Just wanted to be sure... I have a hard enough time getting people to go out there to kill disciples....</DIV>

[Cwi]

Yes, Wai Yuk the Cousin of the Sea is the name. Yes, the island just north of T'Narev, that has about 5 groups of heroic ashen disciples performing combat arts at each other. <div></div>

[Balmore]

For your information:That named woman is 57 Named Heroic.<img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /><div></div>

<P>I finally got a Gi of the Ashen Disciple today.  I was helping someone finish their final Ashen Order quest and the named just happened to be up.  I called my coercer friend and a healer and it took some work, but we got her down.  As I had thought the stats are not as good as my Rujarkian Gi though it has a couple good resists.  Either way I'm wearing it happily.  Thanks for the help guys.</P> <P>On to trying to get the Gi of the dark disciple I guess.  I'd imagine it will be awhile though since the guild I raid with has a couple 60 bruisers.  Maybe I'll get lucky and they won't be there when one drops.

<P>Get Bloodlines, get your own Gi. You want Devastation Fist too.</P> <P> </P> <P>That's my two cents.</P> <P> </P>

[EtrnllyLs]

<P>I have to agree with Rrawl.  I bought BC just for the Blood Drenched Gi.  It is not easy to get , but it is something to be proud of earning.  I have alot of fun with Devastation Fist as well.</P> <P>However... the price is pretty fair I think just because of how rare they are to come by.</P>

[Owa]

<DIV>I preferred my Blood Drenched Gi to my Imbued Augemented tunic  - until it greyed out. Devastation Fist is nice to have  - but if you don't want to spring for the Bloodlines pack, buy the [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn] Gi from the broker.

[Shirlyn]

Hi, I wanted to ask a quick (maybe stupid) question. I have a 19 brawler (about to be bruiser) and I want to get as many Gi's as possible. My question is about the Monk AQ. I have a Qeynos based Fury for whom I never did the AQ (same AQ as the monk). So, my question is for AQ6, do you have a choice of chest piece? Or will my Fury have to take the Sun touched Chestplate? <div></div>

[FlowerFist]

<SPAN>Yes, a Fury will get the armor for their class (not a choice), Only a Monk/Bruiser will get a Gi. Hope that was the answer you were looking for...</SPAN>

[Shirlyn]

Thanks.....not the answer i was hoping for, but saves me a lot of time..... thanks! Guess I get to start a monk alt <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> <div></div>

[gonturan]

<DIV>hi i was looking for some clarification about the blood drenched gi i have a level 25 monk and i was looking to get it but since ive been hearing about monks getting it in the same chest as their devistation fist ability is it that they get it with the ability or is it a random drop off the named mob that you get it off of...im just looking for some sort of clarification if its a random mob drop or you have to have a monk in the group of the appropriate level to get the gi</DIV>

[Colossaltitan]

Use the search tool, there are several specific helpful guides as to helping people get Blood Drenched Gi, & our Bloodlines Lvl35 Skill "Devastation Fist."<BR><BR>GL.

[gonturan]

<DIV>i did i cant find any information weather i have to do the quests with my monk or i can do it with my conjuror who can get it sooner than my monk can</DIV>

[Deathspell]

The Blood Drenched Gi is a randrom drop from a named vampire. The Devastation Fist spell can be bought from the Tombs of Night-merchant after you've completed 3 or 4 quests. Spells bought from NPC's are no-trade, so you have to get it with your Monk. Or, you find an alchemist that has the recipe to craft you the spell. <div></div>

[Deathspell]

<div></div>Are you referring to the vampire-only spell?

There is no recipe for devestation fist like there are for the other BLC spells. This really sucks, and I wish they would add an adept3 or app4 version of it just to make it even, but so far it has not been added. <div></div>

[EtrnllyLs]

<P>Jenoy,</P> <P>No one can say for sure it doesn't drop in any of the other instances or from any other vampire.  However, I have yet to hear anyone say they had gotten it from the other instances.  That doesn't mean it can't happen.  I can say I killed the first named vampire in the Retribution instance well over 50 times and did not find it, but we then killed Nilth T'Feyd about twelve times and got the gi.  There are several reports of simillar findings, but once again it could happen.</P> <P>The real question would be what instance can you get into now and what named vampires, if any, are in it.  If Nilth T'Feyd is in there it might be worth killing him a couple dozen times, otherwise... well it is up to you.</P> <P>The other option is find some one on the correct step and group with them since they can zone you into the correct instance.  Finding someone on that step may be tough so you might have to find someone who hasn't started and help them through the first two quests.  </P> <P>I hope that helps.</P><p>Message Edited by EtrnllyLst1 on <span class=date_text>12-07-2005</span> <span class=time_text>08:46 PM</span>

Referring back to the original post:<a target="_blank" href="http://eq2players.station.sony.com/en/item.vm?itemId=84779">Gi of the Dark Disciple</a> - From the Gates of Ahket Aken - dropped by RhoenIt's an Epic X 4 zone that you'll likely need a full raid of 24 people to do, preferably 55-60 in levels.if that's a bit complicated for you, you should look into the Rujarkian and/or Ashen Disciple Gi, which you'll unfortunately still need 10 or so levels to wear.There's a big gap in the mid range there for Gi, and you're smack in the middle of it.<div></div>

<div></div>anyone got a pic of a female in the Gi of the Dark Disciple.  curious to see how that differs from other Gi's.

Has anyone gotten the bruiser AQ gi since they revamped AQs? I'm wondering if what my sweetheart got was what it is really supposed to look like, or if it is broken....it was not a gi at all; it looked like tan thermal underwear.<div></div>

The top is the old Bruiser AQ top, the pants are the old (white) female AQ pants. They don't come from the Isle of Refuge, they come from quests in "The Caves" which you can reach using the "Travel Outside Qeynos" mariner bells in Qeynos. There are two new npc's at the entrance with quests, complete them and you receive your choice of armor pieces, the bruiser top and female monk pants being the monk rewards.

<div>i disagree crafted Gi's should be in the game. how much harder can it be to make a Gi than a Robe?</div><div> </div><div>Furthermore the Ashen Disciple graphic should be the basis off the "monk" look go to Eldar Grove and look at all the monks there (except Makoto, ill miss you sensei) they all have the Ashen Disciple type Gi on ,so essentially SOE is telling us how a monk looks in their world, but the big joke is on us, unless we quit our jobs and join a high end guild we dont get to look like monks?</div><div> </div><div>granted those that choose to do so should be rewarded for their sacrifice and time w/ really cool looking stuff, but not w/ an item that is worn by ALL the monk NPCs ive come across so far. i personally dont care for the graphic as much, but i do realize alot of people want to see there char wearing adidas pants. so far i like the tranquil pants from the Caves the best, that way i can keep my shirt, and just wear monklike pants. i think those look cool they just need a little work, and more colors and to not look all jagged when worn w/ a leather type chest piece. </div><div> </div><div>the whole i worked for this really hard you cant have it unless you earn it really upsets me. thats what you get for being the first to have something. for example if you bought a PS2 right when it came out you paid more for it than someone who waited a year. like Jedi for example in SWG i remember when they got rid of Holo-Grinding and introduced the Village becoming a Jedi became easier (still a pain but not as hard) the people who earned the Jedi the hard way looked down on the people who earned Jedi the "easier" way. most people who bought the game did so to become a Jedi (me personally never had any sort of inclination to walk that path, i had too much fun as a master rifles/ master bounty hunter w/ one of the best T21 rifles on the server) so why shouldnt they get what they spend there money for? now Jedi is a starting class but the game has been destroyed.</div><div> </div><div>when i first went to EG and saw the Monks in my head i said "thats a monk, thats what i should look like someday" so why shouldnt we be able too. but i do believe that if you put alot of time and effort you should get rewarded for it, with great items, muscle atrophy, carpal tunnel, and the best gear, heck you earned it. my arguement is the Ashen order graphic shouldnt be considered special especially w/ a whole zone of monks running around wearing it.</div><div> </div><div>ok im done</div>

<div></div>well said, almost the same point i was trying to make just more clearly stated

[Gaige]

<div></div><div>The problem being that gis were always something that monks had to strive for in this game.  Until now.  I wouldn't be surprised if you see crafted gis in the future.  I'm just saying I wouldn't be fond of it.  If they use the lvl 20 graphic though, I don't care what they do <img src="/smilies/283a16da79f3aa23fe1025c96295f04f.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></div>

[Graymaulk]

<div>I have an idea, and perhaps a solution to the crafted Gi debate.</div><div> </div><div>Perhaps the player crafted Gi's should look like the AQ Gi, or perhaps the old Bruiser AQ Gi (I see that they ahve added it back in) and follow the rank color scheme. The graphic should never change (Other than color), so those that get tired of the same old bland look would be encouraged to go out and seek the other types of Gis. This way we make Tailors, Bruisers, and Monks in the game happy by giving them a look that is unique while keeping the quested Gi hunt alive. Perhaps another addition to this is to make the quested Gis better than they are now. I have read, many times in this forum, people complaining how the quested Gi is not up to snuff with other Fabled or Legendary equipment. I hate to disagree with you Gage, but I believe that Player Crafted Gis should exist.</div><div> </div><div> </div>

[Shirlyn]

IMO, if there are crafted gi's (which I would love), they should be the AQ model.If there are not, I firmly believe there should be a QUESTABLE gi for EACH tier. I hate that I have to give up my Steel Stitched Gi (which I worked my [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn] off to get b4 the AQ changes went in) in a few lvls unless I can somehow manage to get the rare drop from Bloodline Chronicles from a hard named which I can't kill w/o help even with my Fury. Then again, there's nothing for T5, and my bruiser will look like my Fury for that tier. ick.<div></div>

Hey! and still I think they aren't enough different graphics for the robes.</p><p>Why Monks/Bruisers aren't the same? It's totally wrong to think the main goal of a Monk/Bruiser is to have a Gi. I cannot agree with that affirmation. The main goal of a Monk/Bruiser is the same goal as other classes.

If the names of the items are anything to go by, I'd say its him that drops it.I killed him today and he dropped Lonetusk Robes (cloth) Legendary with caster stats.If the gi you saw was called Lonetusk Gi, I'd say its a good chance its on his loot table, was it legendary?Can anyone with item database access confirm the stats for it?<div></div>

As it is a treasured item I think the Gi will drop in a wooden chest, but I have only seen him drop legendary and master chests. So in his case the wooden chest is his "rare" drop. If you're hunting the Gi then its one of those rare occasions when you'll be happy to see a wooden chest, lol <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p><p> </p><p>By the way, he's level 18 ^^^ and is linked with 2 guards. I think he's an inquisitor mob. He's always healing and uses reactives at low health, and it takes a while to bring him down if you're soloing him. I couldn't solo him until I was level 24 and even then he was difficult, but possible using every trick in the book. He remains green until level 27 so you have a few levels that you can try for the Gi.</p><p> </p>

Something better than treasured, or as I would like to point out regarding an earlier comment by Gaige, this Ashen Disciple gi isn't even treasured.

<div></div>I scored a gi in Sanctum of Scaleborn that's useable at level 64.  It looks like the chainweave but with a bluish tint.  I'll post some pics when I get home from work, but it has like +18 to str and agi and +4 crushing and deflection.  It also has better mit than scaled.  No resists, tho :/  That might change, who knows.

<div></div>There's a new quest reward available for the last quest from Consul Bree in The Caves. It's called Armor of Bliss and it looks like the old Chainweave Gi and the new level 1 monk harness. It's a no trade quest reward but this is a great way to get that white gi if you missed doing the old AQ6 and the new level 1 gi. I believe that a bruiser could also come and do this quest fairly easily (the one guard may attack you though.)<img src="http://img332.imageshack.us/img332/4933/armorofbliss0lu.jpg"><div></div>

I just won the Ghostly Wraps last night. They drop from a mob in the very bottom of sanctum. I can't for the life of me remember the room or the mob name, but I'll ask my guildies what it was. The mob was one of those creepy looking tentacle things of the same sort as the guy who drops the starter for Screaming Mace, except that it was a ghost version of that creature. Dang I can't believe I forgot. It was less than 12 hours ago. Maybe it's because I only got like 5 hours of sleep last night.<div></div>

<div>Aye, he drops some other 'crap' as well ( very nice caster/priest item, if memory serves) and he is a named Terror Wraith ..which are just like wraiths you've seen before in  Norrath, except these are the transparent white ghosty-ness.  Room right past soulrend, where the Banisher spawns too.  If you've got the team for it, great place to set up camp, 3 named at close proximity.  Every other brawler I'm friends with is dragging me down there to help them get one too ...<img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></div>

The wraiths are in the second fountain pyramid room. as low as you can go! however after camping him for several hours twice. he only showed up 4 timesoutta 8 hours there ive killed him four times with wood each time. i think the deal is thedrop rate has been officially nerfed. i really wanted that gi :/but... i had a guildy give me the robe! <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> so now all i need is my hat to look uber anyway!..!!!<div></div>

[Jathal]

<div></div>A friend I was grouped with, swears the Remnant spawns in a room with Pool in the name not Soulrend.  It indeed has a pool not a pyramid of fountains.  I dunno if its the same remnant or if there's 2 nameds that can drop the wraps or what...

[Rrawl]

<div></div>The Remnant spawns in the pyramid room, there is another named "Relic Keeper" or something like that that spawns in the pool room. The placeholder for the Remnant is the Terror Wraith that runs a circuit around the room up high.

<div></div>Anyone have any info on the Gi of the Infernal? Its a KoS item that is for lvl 60+ or so. Saw it on the broker for 85gold and like the idiot I am, didn't buy it. The stats were subpar, so it would have been spending almost a plat for a look I had no idea on. So, if anyone knows what it looks like, please post a screenshot. Also, anyone else miffed that they changed the Blood Splattered Bindings graphic from the cool red version of the Dark Disciple arms into Swahsie puffy sleeves? Oh, this was on Antionia Bayle btw, so maybe another brawler there picked up the Gi.

[Rrawl]

<div>I just got a Gi of the Infernal last night, right after I had updated the post. It uses the same old tired Gi graphic, is largely the same dark grey that the Rujarkian Gi is, but has a red belt and red trim. I'll get it added soon.

It depends on the subject matter, but I have also included personal information that is contributed from the forums into some of my PDFs as well as an original link to the original forum where the information is to be found and read about.

<div>Do we like the pictures the way they are, or when I update the links to screenshots of the item examines should I put the pics along with that so the post doesn't load them all at once?</div>

You could alternatively place all the images directly on the post/forum. Just have the titles of the items above the pictures. I mean you can't hurt us too bad. Take a look at this forum =-> <a href="http://eqiiforums.station.sony.com/eq2/board/message?board.id=24&message.id=12605" target="_blank">http://eqiiforums.station.sony.com/eq2/board/message?board.id=24&message.id=12605 . </a>Now thats a lot of pictures. =). But I'd prefer Title / Name of Item then picture of item. And you can have sub-sections within a section. But again the decision is totally up to you. This is your project =).Masuimi<div></div>

The bloodline Gi is your only option for that level if you really want a Gi look and are not participating in any raids for that tier.there are a couple of raid dropped T5 Gi's. You can find them in the first post.

[NerissaRavenHeart]

So I've heard that this Gi is PVP only. I can not confirm it but it was told to me by Gaige. So from that tad bit of news it seems that it is and will not be available to us on regular non PVP servers.Masuimi<div></div>

<DIV> <DIV>Is it normal for the named in Tombs of Night to not drop chests at all?  I am a Monk trying to get the named Vampire in Retribution (Ninne?) to drop the blood drenched gi.  </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Is this a bug or do the chests not drop sometimes?  </DIV></DIV>

Check out this post: http://eqiiforums.station.sony.com/eq2/board/message?board.id=6&message.id=21921And I have to agree with the player that's posting at the end. Get to the Tombs of Night, not Tombs of Night: Retribution.When the named vampire is spawned in the pit near the door (I couldn't see a pentagram), he'll drop a chest every time you kill him. I got about 6 torture sticks and other stuff, then I got a metal chest with a blood drenched gi and a master spell, and each time after that, he dropped a chest with a Gi.<div></div>
