Explain how you think the ancient cyclops worked on live.

According to Prathun-Dev:
There's one spawn in South Ro with a 30.66666666 minute repop time that has a 10% chance of being the ancient cyclops, but he has to spawn at night. He's on the same spawn table with a_desert_madman, a_dervish_cutthroat, a_sand_giant, and a_mummy.
Truth is stranger than fiction:
ENCOUNTER_DESCRIPTION SROHusamAncientNightfall
MONSTER_1_NAME a_desert_madman
MONSTER_1_NIGHT_NAME an_ancient_cyclops
MONSTER_1_PERCENT 10
MONSTER_2_NAME a_sand_giant
MONSTER_2_NIGHT_NAME a_mummy
MONSTER_2_PERCENT 20
MONSTER_3_NAME a_sand_giant

MONSTER_4_NAME a_dervish_cutthroat

MONSTER_5_NAME a_desert_madman
MONSTER_5_PERCENT 30
AC didn't spawn only in the one spot though, I camped him repeatedly on FV (the ring was droppable on FV) for my guild members. He could spawn like Pyzjn in a number of places.
It was definite not just between 9pm - 10pm.
Also because the exact PH's and timing was never known, it was always a mystery in original EQ the timings and ph's should probably be changed so they're unknown again. Some would argue its not classic if the technical mechanics are different but its even less classic if the technical aspects are identical now they're known. The classic part of the South Ro AC was that it was a mystery.
