NPC Spawn Issue: a frenzied ghoul.

[uwill99]

I remember during classic that frenzied spawn room had wan/dar/zol ghouls that spawned, bloodthirsty was a semi-rare, and frenzied was the rare spawn. Currently it's 3 bloodthirsty ghouls up constantly. I've been at camp for around 16 hours and have seen two frenzied spawn. The person preceeding me had been there for 6 and had popped one frenzied ghoul. I didn't know if this is normal for P99 or if it is irregular. I know for a fact that it wasn't all 3 bloodthirsty's up though. At least during kunark.

If you can find evidence of this, that's usually the best. I don't know how much evidence the devs themselves will dig for, especially since they're usually busy working on other things. Comments on Allakhazam which were posted during the appropriate era are usually the first place to look.

I agree, I was a lvl 39 Paladin in the Frenzy group one night. This guy popped a few times; conned blue to me, putting him at about lvl 38, but still hit for 108. I guess Verant took the same liberty with this guy as they did with Giants, both of them hit over their lvls.

Obviously extrapolating that, in order for the bloodthirsty to "pop a few times" he couldn't be up always.

Another reference to the wan ghouls and on up that I was saying.

I've been in MANY frenzie groups in my time spent in LGuk (about lvl 35-42 so far) however that wouldn't make me an expert on the situation at hand but I think I might be able to present some useful pointers.

Probably the most important thing you can do, especially if you have no enchanter in your group that can mezmerize these thing is split the spawn. It's a little bit tough to do since there is a three spawn there that can be anywhere from Wan Ghouls (the weakest) to the Frenzie (believe it or not I was there one time where there were two frenzies in one pop... go figure). It may take a few spawns but it naturally polarizes if you kill one at a time.

I'm sure there are more references, those are two I found pretty quickly.

There are 3 spawn spots in Frenzy room and commonly a bloodthirsty ghoul will spawn there. He hits max for 116, and hits fast. He's really deadly but doesn't have mad hp's like the ghoul lord. Out of those 3 spots either a regular ghoul frog, the frenzied, or a bloodthirsty can spawn.

1. This guy has 3 PH's, and has the ability (though extremely rare)to have all 3 pop a frenzied ghoul.
2. Should this happen, bend over, put your head between your legs, and kiss your *** goodbye.
3. In most cases a Bloodthirsty Ghoul, Dar or Wan, or a Kor wizard will spawn in its place.
4. The spawn is THIRTY minutes, the same as ALL of Lower Guk.
5. It's 30 minutes, trust me on this one.
6. Frenzy is about level 46, hits for 120's, and it goes insane (frenzied, even) when it has the Sash.
Any other questions, comments, or flames may be directed to my adress, ArchMahgi@aol.com, where they will be summarily ignored. Thank you.


Basicly this is what I also remember as a cleric during classic, BT is should be a semi rare and frenzy a rare spawn,

BT should NOT spawn everytime and only frenzy rare.

I spent alot of time in LGuk as a cleric in the old days.

it was my pp spot.

This can be fixed, but I'll need much more information.

If someone wants to go to gukbottom on eqlive, and clear the frenzied room for several hours, that would help. Essentially, keep track of what spawned, and how many times, in which spot. This is of course if research is not available for it.

If not, it'll go on my to-do list for later.

in the room on AB server:

1 spawn round: BT , a kor ghoul wizard, a dar ghoul knight
2 spawn round: BT , a kor ghoul wizard, BT
3 spawn round: a Zol Ghoul knight, BT, a Wan ghoul knight
4 spawn round: BT , a Wan ghoul knight, a dar ghoul knight
5 spawn round; BT, a dar ghoul knight, Frenzy
6 spawn round: a dar ghoul knight, a dar ghoul knight, a dar ghoul knight
7 spawn round: a dar ghoul knight, BT, Frenzy
8 spawn round: a dar ghoul knight, a kor ghoul wizard, a urd ghoul wizard
9 spawn round: BT, BT, BT,
10 spawn round: a dar ghoul knight, a dar ghoul knight, a Wan ghoul knight

So far: 33% chance of a BT spawn , 6.7 % chance of a frenzy , 60 % chance of random higher lev normal spawn based on 30 spawn chances 10 on each slot
