***IN VELIOUS*** (6 months in)

Naxot Deepwater should despawn upon turning in the Shell to spawn Ixiblat:

When we came here - he was up at 3am.
Turned in, he despawned.
Killed Ixi.
Respawned at 2am for next cleric.
Turned in, despawned again.
Killed Ixi.
Waiting for 3rd...

Okies here is the real deal...we just killed Ixiblat the evening of 2-24-05.

Naxot Deepwater wasn't up for over 2 hours and I witnessed him spawn before my eyes at p3391, n2125 at 11AM game time.

Cleric did turn-in and I Succored us back to DL / BW zoneline and ran straight North 15 secs to find Ixiblat on track (I am a 66 Druid). There were only 4 of us, so I called a 66 necro friend and we waited for him to show...

10 minutes later Ixiblat was still sitting there (not wandering even an inch) when our 5th (Necro friend arrived).

We buffed up and killed him with:
69 Necro (died)
66 Druid (died)
66 Necro
64 Cleric
66 Cleric

Please note that we did this WITHOUT a tank (although I wouldn't recommend it), but we are a *very* experienced group.

Anyways...I hope this clears up some the BS spawn info. this thread has generated for 3+ years now...REMEMBER I SAW THE ACTUAL SPAWN WITH MY OWN EYES.

P.S. Naxot didn't move an inch for 10 to 12 mintues either then our Cleric did the turn-in and he/it despawned

Naxot (the turn in mob), spawns at neg 2110, pos 1340. Will be an Iksar in a robe. After turn in, she WILL despawn. This is immediate, there is no way to chain turns ins as before. She spawned between 6pm and 7pm GAME time each time. After turn in, she respawned again at 6pm GAME time which is aprox one hour REAL time.

Quote:

We can no longer do turn in right after another. Naxot Deepwater despawns after turn in and respawns about 1 hour (RL) later.

She despawns on turn in, so no.

Quote:

Naxot spawned at 3am game time for me (after not having spawned for 36 game hours previously at least) and I did my turn-in. She despawned, we killed Ixi, and she spawned again about 9 game hours later. *shrug*

Anyway, she will despawn immediatly upon turn-in.

On Xegony, we did Ixiblat 5 times on yesterday. Naxot Deepwater now will despawn after you hand in the seashell. During the 5 kills, we tried mez and charm and not doing anything. She despawn right away after hand in, so no more back to back spawning of Ixiblat anymore. Instead it is now 1 hour gap for every kill.

Based off evidence from in-era posts, I decided to investigate.

#1,2,3 were confirmed on live doing the quest, I will post fraps later if necessary.

Natasha despawns upon accepting broken crown in Lake Rathetear
Natasha despawns upon accepting gimblox ring in Timorous Deep
Natasha STAYS upon accepting message to natasha in Timorous Deep

This lines up with the classic posts.

Natasha despawning upon ring turn in video.

Also of note, she spawns just in to the left in that room, not in the back of the room.

I don't think this is right, I don't remember any of this and I don't believe every single post someone makes on allas regarding something because lets face it it was 2001 etc, alot of the posts were older way into luclin saying something of these things LONG after the era were currently in where they may have changed it. I'm not going to copy paste stuff from allas or other places saying this or that, just that natasha/cleric epic working as intended.

I believe you are reffering to content that was put in post kunark, whenever they made ragefire in SkyFire Moutains they made it the way you are now suggesting.

The current content on this server regarding Naxot is from a patch down the line.

Sorry sir but what we have now is the classic version of events.

Naxot is functioning as she should on this server. A velious patch ~6 months in, should make her despawn upon popping a single Ixiblat, and not spawn until the next morning cycle.

Natasha however isn't functioning as she should during Kunark.

She SHOULD despawn upon receiving a damaged crown in Lake Rathetear and she SHOULD despawn upon receiving a gimblox ring.

Ragefire (dragon) also, SHOULD flee at low HP (10%) and not enrage, currently on P99 he does not do this.

Bump. Classic Cleric Epic time!
