Ragefire makes global news on BBC

[getsome]

I disagree, the feb 13 patch notes states the spawn time was reduced. you quoted a message from alan from jan 22 stating that he was setting the spawn time of once per day. I interpret the feb 13 patch notes to reinforce what he stated. They moved the spawn location on jan 22 and then subsequently reduced the respawn time on feb 13.

The broken spawn timers you reference in your two posts, talk about the SF version. ( back to back posts in the first link say working as intended in solb and one person sayings its broke, but SF having a borked spawn time is supported by all.)

Any idea when this will be implemented the way you've posted? SolB Zordak is on a 1-3 day timer, and the other is not spawning. This has been confirmed (though unintentionally) by GMs.

Soon.

The second Zordak is indeed broken. We'll have him fixed as soon as we can.

the posts in the same thread you quoted talk about 3-4 day camps of RF in solb.

I don't really have a horse in this race, I just want an accurate representation of classic eq. Along with all the research you did on this topic, did you also play during this era? If so does your research support your recollection of how RF was spawning during this time period? I remember RF being a huge pain in the ass. While my server may not have killed Nagy within 15 minutes of repop, it definitely was dead within 8 hours of spawning. (thanks to our European and Korean guilds that managed the night shift).

If the cleric epic functioned on live during classic as it does on P99, I do not think you would see the shear amount of butt hurt that has been posted about this epic.

Anyways those my two cents, I remember things differently.

This is good news to me.
I didn't have the time nor desire to spend 3 or 4 RL days in SolB just waiting for Zordak to pop.
So I'll head over to SolA or Lake Rathe and start camping

So, now instead of 1 cleric doing a 1-3 day camp of a mob that spawns in a STATIC place with a chance of being steamrolled by another guild, you have every cleric in Skyfire camping a mob that spawns in a random place (probably a wanderer) and are almost guaranteed to get steamrolled by another guild. How is this a GOOD change?!
