I went there as a lvl46 blu/whm and cleaned them up for a joke. As for the flies they nevereven aggro'd me without my sneak on. Not the safest place but good place to get Self destruct.
One tip of advice get there health down as quick as possible. They used self destruct but with almost no health it did 5 damage lol. Hope this helps.

to any summoners thinking about leveling off of these, I say this: it won't work. not only are these surrounded by sound aggro mobs (gallinippers), but if you magic aggro, you have no room to run backwards before you get aggro from the funguars.
That along with the fact that the room for these mobs (middle lever, left lever, hang left until you get to a drop, then fall down) is guarded by hoardes of undead that you *might* get around and two unmoving ghost guards (one at each lever), this place is a deathtrap for summoners.

these things arent that hard. well if your drk they arent that hard, solod three or so in a row with 44drk/whm. self destruct did around 200-300 w/o barfira if they got if off, and only every other one did. killed aboout 6-8 of them and got the key and half a dozwn boomb arms. and yes i know drks have an advantage in the fight, thats y i fought them in the first place. so i guess the moral of the story is you should all become drks... or just avoid them... or kill them... or be killed by them... what ever floats you boat really.
RDM would have even less problems with these. We can put up a Barfire so strong, that the self-destruct does 0 damage.

As a heads up when mining here pre 50, these guys like most bombs agro to sight, so you can pretty much run just behind them to get by and not get aggro - but they have a much larger aggro radius to magic (the common perception is if they're a red dot on your radar, they can and will attack).
This wouldn't be so bad if they didn't spawn around Galinippers (flies that agro to sound). The underlevel miner can find themselves between a rock and a very hard place if their sneak drops in this area.

I'm a level 50 warrior, and I went down near those guys, and I checked one, and it was easy prey, and all of the others were too weak too be worthwhile, but I think that means that the max level for them has to be 40. Otherwise it wouldn't still be easy, right?
Or, do I just not understand how the checking scale works.

Don't mess with these bad boys. My group was lvl 40-41 , we can kill it but that self destruct it used did 700+ damage to all of us. Anyone know a way to avoid that move from it? It is kinda of instant so stun would not work I think..

Actually, they take I believe 3-4 seconds to actually do it, stun, shield bash, weapon bash all can work to stop this, as can stunning weaponskills like flat blade. You do have to watch for it and be pretty fast though, so you won't always get it, but you can stop it.

Too be honest to try and stop it is futile. Unless u got them already preped waiting for it to use it then u dont have a chance. But on the other hand as a blu46/whm23 getting this in gusgen is the easier than waitin all the time for damn firesday. As for the flies they dont seem to agro me even with my sneak off.
