Description

Named wurm for bard and magician epics. Phurzikon spawned on my 3rd mob @ -1072, -3772 - Elzhi

Soloing as a Mage

Phurzikon can be soloed by a Magician (54), but it is very challenging. You have to pull him somewhere with less wandering mobs (there's almost nowhere in BW without wandering mobs), like the wall East of his spawn point. Engage him with a pet, pull to wall, back away while pet fights him (far enough that you have time to summon a new pet), and when pet is <6% or so start summoning a new one.

Repeat this process until Phurzikon is getting close to 20% health, then relocate to his spawn point (as he will gate there at 20%). Have pet engage while you nuke him down using Shock of Swords (as he's basically fire immune). Because you will likely get wandering mobs added, have him gate at the wrong time, etc. you should expect to need to make several attempts; bringing a stunner or mana drainer is recommended.

Possible NPC sharing his spawnpoint: Nezekezena wurm Phurzikon greater war boned skeleton a scoriae hornet a tatterback gorilla a Sarnak zealot a forest giant ancient a moldering gorilla a forest giant verdant
