So yesterday someone WCed saying they had a wined Eden with Phelbo left and they were going to give it away because they couldnt solo him. I was bored and it was 2x drops so I whispered her for it. I brought a cleric friend of mine because she needed him for Culti. About 1/2 way through every 15ish hits Phelbo would run to be and hit me 2 times. I soloed him at 88 and didnt notice this. So I was just curious...

"Did that 95 BM just kill himself to your Herc? Mmm..Yep"
"Oh that thing I thought was a statue, it 1 shot me, switch to your cleric please"
"So that Hercules guy from the disney movie really aged well.."

    I know you venos can solo heaven, my friend was soloing heaven when she was 81 or 82, but some of you might have problems with brimstone.

    Chambermaids heal themselves and if you do not damage them fast enough you might eventually run out of mana and die. (But this becomes easy if you bring along another damage dealer and if your damage dealer can learn to wait for threat to build so that your herc keeps aggro.)

    advice to fledgling archers:
    Going sage is like drunken sex, at first she may look good, but when you wake up the next morning; you'll look at her and go WHAT HAVE I DONE.

    Phlebo has a moderate pdef debuff he'll occasionally put on your herc. Light, heavy, and vit builds will have a harder time soloing him than pure mag builds. I don't think I was able to do it until I was in my high 80s. Having extra channeling gear would help too.

    You can pull Herc back for duration of debuff.

    I've encountered a similar situation as the OP. Only, I was doing a low-level FB, so it was easier for me to pull aggro. But it semeed like whenever I would heal my pet, I would grab aggro from other active monsters.

    You need to make sure all attacking monsters have been hit, or anyone using a heal (whether veno, cleric, wizard, or psychic) will get heal aggro.

    Actually, Phlebo's debuff seems to be similar to a BM's Heaven's Flame, in that it makes the target take double damage. Phlebo's ranged attack (earth damage) hits my Hercules for about 2500 while debuffed.
