Kithicor Night Mobs not Despawning

[Nocte]

They've been up for at least one full day cycle as of this post.

[guineapig]

It probably broke again after the patch/server restart... it does that occasionally.

BUMP

[Lazortag]

Yeah, they definitely used to despawn, so if they don't now then something changed recently.

[Gorgetrapper]

Good don't let them despawn, that zone is really good for exp 40+.

[Kani]

I was running through Kithicor at 10 am EQ time, this morning and the undead were still up.

[Shannacore]

Quick go camp the cleric!

[Nocte]

Wanna join me? ;)

[Shannacore]

Wanna join me? ;)

I have already spent four(ish) hours of my life sitting in that damned zone with you to get you that mace. WHY COULDN'T THE ZONE HAVE BEEN BROKEN WHEN WE DID IT.

[thulseh]

Undead are still up in the daytime

[YendorLootmonkey]

This is preventing the 7 rangers on the server from doing ivy etched armor quests. :(

[Toehammer]

still hasn't despawned... waiting to do some ranger quest turn ins!

[RKromwell]

Get sow and IVU. Then pray?

[shibbymeow]

As of 2am this morning (irl ) the unread were still up. :(

[VictoryARC]

Its great having an outdoor zone to xp in for 40+. Wish it was classic

[Dantes]

Could be a server-wide time issue. I started a newblet in Qeynos and the decaying skeletons were running around in broad daylight. Gnoll Pups at night.

[Jiece]

The Ivy Etched quest NPCs despawn when the undead are up :(

[Zadrian]

Lol, I died like 5 times trying to find Morin - only to find out he's not up because it's bugged =(

[Talori]

This issue also affects Lake Rathetear - undead are up all day and night, there are 2 regular gnolls stuck in same spawn spot as 2 undead (they are standing together in same spot). I did kill a few undead during the day to test it and undead respawned, no regular gnolls.

[Elmo]

Please look into this issue.

[Lusst]

Trying to run through now - 4PM EQ time and undead are still up.

[RKromwell]

Was it like that on live? I don't remember them despawning when the undead popped up.

[Jiece]

Honestly I cant remember. I never hung out in Kith, only went there to do quest turn ins back in the day.

Really hoping this gets fixed soon since I have a few quests waiting to be completed since the quest NPCs arent up.

[RKromwell]

Just asked a buddy of mine about it, he told me that they did despawn.

Sooo...no more Ivy Etched armor or SSoM until they fix this.

[Evilmog]

I just ran through an undead commander, he acted like I wasnt even there (I did not have IVU)

[Dominick]

Absolutly, they spawn and despawn like clockwork. My nec used to eat them at night, and moved to High pass in the daytime.

[VictoryARC]

I heared someone say that the quest mobs did spawn, but get pwned soon after by undead.

[Shrubwise]

A ranger friend and I camped Leaf Falldim for a good half an hour, he never spawned and never got pwned. Unless he has a longer spawn time, he is just not spawning at all. And yes, it is screwing with ranger quest turn ins!

[Spunge18]

I have 2 Ivy etched quests to hand in , and this still hasnt been fixed - whats the problem?

[mgellan]

Still bugged?

Regards,
Mg

[Zadrian]

Yes..... still bugged.

Really looking forward to Morin spawning been waiting almost a week.

[Jiece]

Any chance this got fixed with the downtime today? I know it was maintenance downtime but im hoping!

[Kizzik]

Nope, still broken today.

[krforrester]

Ran through about an hour ago at 12 noon. Plenty of undead ready to give me a smack down.

[kenzar]

would this bug extend to the sro AC? if nightime spawns are spawning 24 ingame hours a ingame day would that mean the AC can spawn at anytime?

[Fireapple]

its only occurring in Kithicor

[Shrubwise]

FIXED.

(Thank you devs)

[mgellan]

Confirmed fixed, thanks Devs, you RAWK!

[toxic8]

Stayed in Kith for 24 hours game time, undead never un-unspawned.

[Aasimon]

P99 staff is aware of the issue and investigating. :)

[Sajan]

Is there any chance the live mobs could be spawned for questing reasons? I got a corpse stuck in the middle of this mess while waiting for the quest NPCs to spawn.

[Dominick]

Is the issue where undead are spawning around Kithicor and Thumper's Cabin?

Most of the zone was depoped of undead except there on Friday/Saturday

[Sajan]

Any ETA on when live mobs start spawning again?

[Aasimon]

We are aware that Kithicor is experiencing significant issues with its day/night cycle. We have no ETA at this time, but we are investigating the issue and will notify the playerbase when it is resolved.

Please be patient.

[Ryujee]

apparently, there are also ninja undead. i was running my lvl5 halfling rogue through Kith at 3pm, saw a mob that was red, undead and had murder in its head. so i did the sneak/hide thing got a ways away from him before i dropped hide, of course i looked around first...all clear. go.

an undead this casts a spell
an undead that casts a spell
an undead this casts a spell

So, yeah, that was fun, having my blood set afire by mobs 9 times my level. who weren't meant to be there. and are invisible to me. in the middle fo the EQ day. yay! on the plus side, this is totally like EQ back in the day, am just waiting to get to lower guk and hit the wall while swimming to Bedroom and dropping dead for 12.5k falling damage. underwater.

[Malrubius]

Anybody notice a difference lately? One of my alts is camped in there :eek:

[RKromwell]

While this might not be something that can be done but...

There are more than a few quest NPC's in Kith. Would it be possible to move them somewhere else so this isn't an issue for the two dozen rangers left on the server? Ivy Etched Armor, Call of Flames, Short Sword of Morrin and a few other things. Once the epics are in game, we will need them as well. This seems to be an on going issue. While I have faith that you guys can fix it, I just think there might be an easier way. Move the live mobs to another zone. Maybe Misty or hell, West Karana is big enough to hold that zone twice. Then just let the undead have Kith until everything is worked out.

[Uthgaard]

It's not some issue that needs figured out, it's just something that wasn't completely synced up at update. No need to panic.

[RKromwell]

Ahhh ok then. I am board at work and couldn't stop myself from typing...
