AoW down -- Legit!

[Daldaen]

A man can dream.

Keep in mind, a Trakanon rotation was proposed and it was shot down by your glorious leader because he wanted all Trakanons.

I hope people are more rational about UDB. Though... I'd guess the reserves of White/Red scales would hinder too terribly huge of a bottleneck on that piece.

PS - I love derailing threads.

Wasn't talking Trakanon, was talking UDB. No point in hoarding UDB's for a single Trak BP, spawned Trak doesn't drop VP teeth.

[Daldaen]

I'm aware but a rotation that would've included shot at Trak guts was shot down for the opportunity to hoard teeth.

I don't see anyone hoarding UDBs for the rare Manna Robe drop... But who knows? I do see guilds trying to get back to back UDBs for Bard epics though. But as I said, you still need raid dropped scales to complete the epic, so there's not going to be 10 bards from each guild trying for UDB. I'm also not familiar with the UDB spawn mechanic.

It should slim out the list of bards ready pretty quickly.

Is it 24 hours after death so 1 UDB per Trakanon or is it a 24 Hr spawn while Trakanon is not up, I.E. You can get 2-3 UDBs in between Trakanon kills. I'm thinking the former?

I love derailing threads on accident.

From everything I've found, its almost exactly like Ragefire:
1) After real Trakanon(Nagafen) dies, a placeholder, non-KOS mob spawns (UDB ~18hr [1][2]).
2) You turn in your lute body to UDB, he returns the body, becomes KOS.
3) Kill UDB, Trak spawns.
4) Kill Trak, congrats guts(heart) and single Trak BP(ragefire armor/COF).
5) UDB spawns again >=12hr later [3][4].
6) Once Trak spawns, UDB despawns [5].
7) Return to step 1.

I dunno how much work has been done on this but that may be worth a post in the bug forum / Velious Quest forum for our March 2001 patch to be correct.

U did it

I think the lute body requires red and white scales, so not exactly a trivial turn in

It's not trivial no.

But is it wild to imagine someone investing in another lute body to farm kunark BPs?

It only takes 1 lute body to spawn trak forever.

This thread belongs in R&F because it's a joke at best, sorta like the OP.

You mean your account should only be allowed to post on RnF where your own guild mates attempt to stop you from dragging your guild name through the mud.
