so why is it even spawning since kunark isnt out yet and i never once saw those in classic. I hunted those mobs that spawn them a lot.

[girth]

Because they need more information?

[Haynar]

Because they need more information?
I am not sure what information they are seeking. The Iksar Broodling should spawn where the corpse spawns of the downed golem. If you don't kill it within 2 minutes, it runs away and despawns (if i remember correctly). If you kill the broodling, it was only like a 6 or 8 minute corpse (whatever the duration for a short decay corpse time). It was not a long duration corpse.

Nilbog: Created unique clockwork scrubber #628.
Nilbog: Created quest Rat Patrol.
Nilbog: Created quest Gnome Take

YES! Thank you so much! Yay, Nilbog! :D

Logging in right now to do these on my dwarf rogue!
Any progress on the Parrying Pick quest? I'll do some more testing, just let me know.
Err... I'll do some more testing regardless. :rolleyes:

The broodling was originally on a 1 minute respawn timer and would spawn whenever one of the golems wasn't up (can't remember which one). It then got changed sometime in 2001 to pop upon each golem death.

Plane of Fear ( Loot and Run ! )
à Kill Iksar Child in Plane of Fear in the little pyramid at LOC ( -630, -360 ). Respawn time is (currently…) 60 seconds and hes level 1 and got about 15HP
Loot : Child`s Tears

Iksar Child's Tear

Proceed to the Plane of Fear and slay the Iksar Child.

It is now reported that the Iksar Child is a broodling and that you must kill a Golem (likely Fright) to get the Child to spawn.

TIP: If your guild is not Fear-ready, try to get into any Fear Raid offering your buffing services, perhaps even foregoing looting rights in exchange for dibs on the Tear.


Spawn time?

I've been looking at hte various web pages regarding this apwn in Fear, and have been recieving various responses. One page says that he is on a 1 minute spawn time, other pages say that he only spawns after the golems have been killed. Anyone have any varification as to which is which? Thank you in advance.

Was something changed in Permafrost? I don't see Goblin Champion/any gobbys spawning anymore in the first ice giant room.

The changes are all made server side so you do not need to change anything. The only exception to that is if a Dev specifically mentions changing the spell file.

Has anyone actually gotten Gynok to spawn since the patch? I've camped him for about 8 hours personally with no spawn, and the groups that have been in Befallen when I've been gone have said they never saw him spawn. Just want to make sure I'm not totally wasting my time and that its working as intended (I know he has a slow spawn chance).

Jboots are now 1% slower.

[Velothi]

Sorry: LOW spawn chance

Edit: Nvm - he spawned once.

Time was June 03, 3140 - 12pm if it matters at all (though I don't think it does).

8 hours wasn't unheard of before. His camp sucked before. Surprise -- it still sucks.
