The group I was with killed one of the terrorwebs and it dropped a glob of ecto. Problem was... well the pict shows, aatxe. So I decided to try tanking the aatxe while another stayed alive to grab the ecto after. While doing so I noticed that vengeful aaxte... don't do a lot of damage if you sit still. For a level 30 monsters... kinda odd.
As a result I was able to tank them for 5 minutes until the ecto was mine. The rightful owner was happy to receive it afterwards.
Oh, and I'm not sure why I crossed out my level.
