I was the first to attack one and used the Arma spell, it did over 6k, then a guildie casted right after and got over 3k. Obviously it does less as the SL hitpoints decrease.

weird! Me and everybody else i know doing it is hitting them for around 25k on the first cast of arma spell then the damage dealt drops each time it is cast on it. but could have been cast on then th person casting died and it healed back up perhaps?

It spawned almost on top of me, I casted, did over 6k, probably like 6400ish, that took it to under half, then guildie did the 3k and it was down to under a fourth before others jumped on it. We both got cloaks. I dunno, maybe harder/more HP depending on crowd?

You people are funny. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that blackrock strikes are percentage based.
IE the amt of dmg is determined by doing a PERCENTAGE of his total HP.
It is not possible to kill one with blackrock. You must melee it down the last bit.
Say it starts with 35,000 HP. The first one does 25,000. Leaving it with 10,000. The next one does a PERCENTAGE so it takes off 6400. Next one 1000 then down to the 900's etc.
If you want a cloak - hit it FIRST once with blackrock and then sit back and collect your cloak when others drop it.
I logged in to GL this morning on my Pally. I got 3 cloaks in 15 min. Hit it, go hide - cloak. Find another, armageddon, hide.
On several I hit them 2-3 times with blackrock to make it easier for others to take down. I used about 8 pieces of blackrock and got 3 cloaks.
I have 150 more pieces at home. Anyone know how much longer this event is going to go on?
