Is there a definitive Pyzjn guide for 1999

[Baron]

I use to play on Fennin Ro and way back when the GBS was an obsession of mine that I never was able to get.

I've been reading through the forums and there seems to be a lot of conflicting info on how to spawn Pyzjn for the GBS.

I have found the following post:

http://www.project1999.org/forums/showthread.php?t=3070&highlight=pyzjn

Can anyone confirm if this is correct and the following:

1. Is Pyzjn considered campable?
2. Is Varsoon a PH and if he is killed does it restart the spawn cycle?
3. Is it currently broken because I have been there a few nights (game time) and gone by the linked guide with no results.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[tekniq]

here is your confirmation you wanted.

1. NO because she is a wanderer
3. Yes you must kill him, but not undying
3. its a shitty camp.

use the search feature (http://www.project1999.org/forums/showthread.php?t=3070&highlight=pyzjin)

[Baron]

I did use the search feature which brought me to the link that I posted which I only wanted confirmation on due to the fact that there was some conflicting opinions in the post.

[Doors]

Yes, search function is your friend.

[Baron]

Sigh... I did use the search function and yet again... it seemed like there was some conflicting information so I was hoping an expert could confirm what was correct and what wasn't...

[Sickle]

Took me about 13 hours to get mine...Goodluck

[Huddaan]

I have got her to spawn 4 times out of probably 15 EQ nights within the last week. Never had the GBS though.

[rigi]

heres an easier way you go to lower guk farm an fbss and trade it for a gbs + something too... :)

[Baron]

You know what rigi... I'm starting to think that's the way to go...

[Autotune]

You know what rigi... I'm starting to think that's the way to go...

Yep, everyone should do that, then everyone can trade it for the gbs that no one else farms. Brilliant.

Listen Einstein... I could care less what everyone else does... all I know is I have spent countless hours on this and no Pyzjn spawn at all not counting the fact that the GBS is a rare drop. I'd rather camp something that I'm getting a constant flow of xp on that is worth more than the item I want. And Wizards don't have track, sow, etc... which makes this camp much more difficult.

I heard creating a wizard came with installed and working on p99 macroquest? Atleast thats what r99 players say.

lol, you guys crack me up.

1. Yes
2. Yes
3. We killed more than 20 Pyz's without a stone and 80 hours of camping.

If you're playing on blue, get a Drachnid Thxyl (sp?) or something.
It is possible to have 2 Pyz's up at once. Her rare is the stone, her common is a rusty dagger.

R99r's say stfu you're a bitch.


Hope that straightens things out.

[cyryllis]

the GBS is incredibly rare, hence why it sells for 6k even though it drops off an extremely low level mob. All you have to do is kill the PHs and cross your fingers. If you are consistently spawning varsoon, you are doing something right.

I spent about 4 or 5 days there when I was level 20 trying to get one and it finally happened, but dont expect it to be a short camp. Pretty sure I was in upwards of 50 hours camping it.

If you get bored, just run around killing everything that moves...cause that camp is absolutely terrible.

that link is entirely correct for here, just follow the instructions.

unfortunately on this server, pyzjin is a little different than on live...you cant have varsoon and pyzjin up at the same time, and I do not believe you can have multiple pyzjin up here either (unlike live)

I hope you get that little beotch! ok, i have something to add here....and i know my shit cause my level 28 ranger main has 18k worth of twinkage from 2 gbs i've looted. yes i have been lucky with gbs drops, cause i have those two gbs from less than 20 pyz....but i get a pyz every two game nights...and that aint luck, its hardcore PH killing. this is what i know:

FACT: this is a 3 minute timer....not six THIS IS A FACT .....wrong! it is 6, my bad.

FACT: the cycle begins at 10 PM game time ALSO A FACT


other than these two corrections, the post you read is accurate. the spawn spots it states are right. actually one correction...add putrid as one of the ph.

i can also confirm what the guy says in the post, that you do not have to kill varsoon the undying. see the pic below. happy hunting!

How come when I was camping it, it was a 6 minute spawn? (same spawn points as you discussed)

Wait till right before 10, use track. (no one else in zone, so no mobs killed) 1 mob has spawned right at 10pm, seen using track. It is either undead (decaying, dread, putrid, restless) or varsoon/py. Named spawns seemed to have a fifth spawn point, which is in the southwest end of the zone.

It is a 6 minute spawn time on ph. To test this out, in the zone alone, I killed the single ph that spawned at 10pm. 3 minutes later, nothing new was up. I ran down south, no named. At the 6 minute mark exactly, new spawn on track near ruins. ( I am pretty sure I am killing the right spawn since I have spawned varsoon like 20 times. Still no py :\ )


ALSO, I think the cycle starts at 8PM. Seeing as they despawn at 8 then spawn again at 10 (cough, 6 min), I kill them just after 6, and just after 8 I have the undead part of the cycle started already.

[Baron]

Just wanted to post and thank the people who have replied with constructive inside information.

I've actually met a couple people who regularly camp it that have been really friendly and helpful. Just generally decent people who keep the game, this camp and the ever elusive gbs in perspective (with the exception of one who will remain nameless...)

Anyways, I've found it refreshing how many cool people play on this server.

[SmallpaulTZ]

Dunno what this does to the conversation, but here goes...

I'm no expert at all on this spawn, but I was running into the zone, omw to EF, and I took a quick glance at the ruins.

I saw her, standing there, at 2PM, and yes, i was suprised too :)

No GBS though

she doesnt despawn once spawned
BUT she only spawns at night time.
So someone killed a ph of hers and wasnt actually after her so she spawned and stayed up untill u saw her.

[SanlavenTZ]

There are 5 or 6 spots she can spawn and will walk up to the ruins after summoning her pet. I would kill anything that pops and starts moving towards the ruins, and anything around the ruins besides the sitting skeletons when you first get there. The farthest away she'll spawn is down by the road to Surefall, and the guards will kill her if pathing nearby.

People used to have all these magical theories back in the day involving Varsoon, Tovax V'mar, etc., but it was all bullshit.

[danceparty]

Mirox is right, i am wrong....it is a 6 minute cycle. i swear to god i thought i was killing ph's on a 3 minute cycle. staring at too many pixels me thinks.

i did a couple cycles sunday to be sure (killed one pyz, no gbs)

[Nirgon]

We were able to spawn 2 Pyzs at the same time on red.

Avon Barksdale is the current master of the Pyz spawn and got me one. He may be willing to sell his secrets.

[Burrito]

I manged to spawn 3 varsoons and a pyz in one night. Eventually I got my GBS. It's definitely a 6 minute timer and it's very easy to spot placeholders. Thanks for posting this info. :)

[Ikonoclastia]

Been doing lots of research on pyzjn, I think I figured out her specific p1999 spawn, I can spawn her on average 1 time per night and my best was 2 times per night.

Its a lot simpler then what was posted or I'm just extremely lucky. I'm only 16 atm so I just take her to guards if no one is in the zone but vary soooon her GBS's will be mine.

both of you are wrong. it's 6 min 30 seconds.

she has 5 spawn points, not 1.

[Ikonoclastia]

she has 5 spawn points, not 1.
In referring to the "pyzjn spawn" I was referring to her spawning not her spawn points.

My theory is there is a single mob that you need to kill to get her to spawn. I have tried it only when there is no one else in zone and my results have been:

1: 1 kill of mob, 1 pyzjn (trained to guards), 1 kill of mob, Varsoon.
2. 2 kills of mob, 1 pyjn (trained to guards)
3. 1 kill of mob, 1 pyzjn (tried to kill her at 15, killed me)
4. 3 kills of mob, Varsoon
5. 2 kills of mob, 1 pyzjn, 2 kills of mob 1 pyzjn
6. 3 kills of mob, 1 kill of another mob, 1 pyzjn but on other mobs spawn point
7. 5 kills of mob no spawns at all

I'm either ridiculously lucky or there's something to this?

Before anyone gets upset about the single mob, I'm not saying theres only 1 mob you can kill to get her to spawn, I'm saying there seems to be 'a mob' that if killed has a really high chance of pyzjn or theres another reason that shouldn't be too hard to work out if you think about it... or I'm just lucky.

Edit: at the time I was mapping out paths n spawn timers and so on in QH and I saw her spawn right in front of me n begin casting pet. The thing that made curious was where she spawned cus everything I have read says about her on live and her on forums, as well as the guide in the OP of this thread says she doesn't spawn there.

[tekniq]

in that case, you are correct. one mob is a PH and has 5 possible spawn points in 6 min 30 seconds. iirc pyz is a 10% spawn and varsoon is something like <5%. there really is nothing else that can 'force' her to spawn, all the mobs are just on a RNG spawn table.

[tekniq]

also, if you got the timer down (i usually leave the PH corpse up and get ready to move out when it's at 1:30 remaining), you really don't need to be a tracking class to get her near her spawn points.

[Ikonoclastia]

Edit to remove incorrect information and add correct information:

Confirmed: 6 minute exact timer

Confirmed: PHs (a grey wolf, varsoon, a putrid skeleton, a skeleton, a dread corpse, a brown bear, a fire beetle, a mangy rat). (these wander, the static ones don't and are not ph's)

Confirmed: She will spawn between 8pm and 8am (she will spawn after 6am as long as there's enough time between the time you kill her or the ph) for the respawn cycle to occur before 8am. Yesterday I killed varsoon at 5am and pyzjn spawned after 7am.

Additional spawn point to OP: A Large Rat on top of mountain over looking ruins.

My Method:

At 6pm kill every mob in the area until one of the ph's spawn. kill ph and nothing else. check time of death and at exactly 6 minutes past this time kill varsoon, pyzjn or ph which will spawn.

odd things:

i saw varsoon die and immediately on track there was another varsoon
it seems easier if you kill nothing other then ph during 6 min cycles
