Not if it's something super-rare, and particularly not if someone discovered it and kept it to themselves...

Once again im skeptical, the game isnt new, south karana is 11 years old. you think one person was able to keep it secret for 11years?

It really wouldn't matter what the spawn mechanic was on live. They customized a spawn mechanic for a few rare spawns in order to keep them rare (ie: Quillmane).

Seeing as how large the zone is, how many mobs there are, with various spawn times, triggers, placeholders, roamers/static mobs, not being able to track the entire zone at once, AND combine all that with the fact that nobody has actively been trying to crack the secret to spawning AC in South Karana is reason enough as to why nobody knows how to do it.

Nagafen also spawns in butcherblock, and vox spawns in East commonlands. its just SUPER rare guys! so super rare that it never once happened and wont ever happen because its a load of shit.

Im going to retort back to my earlier statement. this game is 11 years old, if it were true there would be documentation. (granted the jboot quest is a little younger than that because jboots used to be a drop off najena.) during that time someone would have said "oh gee golly, theres the ancient cyclops in SK...SCREENSHOT!" and then posted it to any number of EQ database dedicated sites. but no, nothing, just a bunch of unsubstantiated rumors.

When someone finds a screenshot that doesnt look like it was edited in MSPaint by someone missing chromosomes then i might concede this. Even a link to a EQ site would work. Until then GL on getting your AC ring in SK lulz

Even with quillmane having the convoluted spawn mechanic that it does have, you would still see quillmane up at random times. No matter how intricate the spawn mechanic is, SK is too well trafficked to not have any reports or screenshots of the AC walking around.

GL on naggy BB spawn, and Vox EC spawn, i hear they are only lvl 5 and drop their entire loot table.

A lot of stuff here doesn't work *exactly* like it did on classic. We don't know 100% of how things work, even if we were able to somehow slam all of our knowledge together.

I understand your skepticism - i've never seen AC in SK or EK for that matter, but I have heard credible people state that they did. So i hold kind of a tentative belief that he does spawn in those places, rarely.

It's more difficult to track than super-rare spawns like that dumb armadillo in Nro - ultra rare, but his loot is unique and clearly exists in game (Scute shield), whereas an AC ring from an AC in SK ends up exactly the same as an AC ring from Sro or OOT...

I have complete faith in Uthgaard, he says it exists... then it exists. Just because noone has posted "valid" screenshots, doesn't make it less true. Yes the one that was posted is obviously fake, I mean a pink ancient cyclops... come on. My original question as to the spawn rate was because, it has been posted that the spawn rate at the Sro AC spawn is a 10% chance and only at night. So I was curious as to the rarity of the spawn in SK.

Nice photoshop..... but point still not taken.

There's plenty of documentation on the SK AC. EK was the one without much to support it. But don't run around saying the proof doesn't exist just because you couldn't find it.

Thank you, now can we get kinda a hint for a timer.... more rare than SRo which has a 10% chance... I already know it exists.
