PS not spawning in 54 hours?

[Kairun]

Heh.. PS hasnt spawned in 54 hours now. i was there for a 24 hour straight shift and two people prior to me did 10 hour shifts each, n i just woke up now and the people that took over havent seen PS either.. lol.. just wanted to cry about it :)

[Rais]

It's classic

[Xanthias]

sad but annoyingly true
classic not a bug

[cyryllis]

you are better off camping things like PS in shorter blocks of time. camping it for say 3 or 4 hours at a time max...that way its less disappointing than staying there 20 hours straight and nothing.

[Xeliso]

PS has gone 70+ hours before. Either suck it up or do what Cyryllis said.

QQing on a bug thread doesn't do anything for you either.

[Kairun]

*sucks it up*

[Szeth]

When you left, the people who came were pretty frequently afk.

I took it around 11:30pm last night for my alt. Sorry.

[Kairun]

WHAT!!!!!!

I know its rare, but this is behind rare. i never had to camp over 12 on live, and NO no one took spawn. 70+ hours no spawn is not rare, its bugged.

I haven't rolled 100 on a random in over 150 rolls. BUG BUG BUG BUG BUG.

Here's the block of text I expected to see already in this thread:

Random number generator is random.

[Xanthias]

guys I've seen PS pop within 30 min of last spawn and take over 3 days.
it isn't bugged sorry.
you just have failed to make the proper sacrifices to the RNG Gods.

3 PS's here, two in 55 minutes, one in 26 minutes. You can ask Phisting, he paid me for it! =P

[Kairun]

im not saying the spawn is "bugged". just think its % is a lil jacked up atm.. not sure if it was changed, or its just really low. shouldnt really be a thing of luck.. i mean, me killing atleast like 200 place holders.. what % is that? :D

If we assume that PH is a simple 10% chance to spawn every pop (which seems like it's probably a high guess), and you've killed 200+ PH, then you are literally the one in a billion who get totally screwed by this spawn.

In all honestly, it is more likely the spawn has some different way of working than a simple 10% spawn chance, or that it is bugged, or that you get struck by lightning, than you go 200 PH without seeing the PS. Hell. It was several times more likely for you to have wont he megamillions lotto a couple weeks ago having only bought a single ticket than you going 200 PH without seeing the PS.

Even at a 1% spawn chance the odds of not seeing at least one PS in 200 PH is like 1 in 8.

There is a point where a spawn is very rare and non existant. So far TMO has camped this spawn for 73 hours. Doing the math:

73 + 60 = 4380 minutes

4280/7 spawn time + time to kill (6.5 with 30 sec killing time) = 625 spawns +/- 30 giving for people who dont respond in time, or PH is up for more than a few min.

so with lets say 600 to be safe and no PS spawns this is getting to look like a bug to me or least needs to be reconsidered for a revamp

[teekanc]

Maybe they revamped it so that TMO doesnt get everything they want.

Lot's of QQ before already, you are just getting bad luck with RNG

[Kairun]

Going on a little bit short of 80 hours now without a PS spawn.

[Kairun]

As in..it being camped for a whole 80 hours straight lol.

If you'll notice most of the people saying it is legit and not a bug are in TMO

[Xeliso]

Yeah, honestly listen to your guild mates and understand it isn't a bug, QQing on this thread is pointless.

[Kairun]

Its really not like "qq"ing or anything about the spawn.. i mean its kind of unusual is all. Was hoping i could get some staff to actually post on here instead of people that wouldn't have any idea about its actual spawn % to give me some sort of reassurance that the spawn hasn't been changed. I mean yeah people who did the spawn weeks/months ago just isnt enough to convince me that nothings changed. Rather be a member that at least bring up "potential" problems then be a member who trolls forums. Anyhoo.. the thread has been up for a while now and haven't got any replies from staff who would actually know what they're talking about concerning the matter. I'm just going to leave it as this -> if it pops it pops, if it doesn't it doesn't.

[Kairun]

Alright guys, finally PS spawned. it took 106-112 consecutive hours of an attended camp. GL to the rest of ya i guess :)

[quido]

I bet you it's exactly that, a 1% spawn.

If it is a 1% spawn, and you can kill the thing within 20 seconds of it spawning, there is a 1.6% chance you will go 48 hours without seeing a spawn.
