General Epic Quest "Fixes" // Triggered Spawns // Plane of Fear/Hate Revamp (new minibosses, new CT/Inny/Draco) in the March 14, 2001 Patch (3.5 months post Velious release)
http://www.tski.co.jp/baldio/patch/20010314.html

As part of the Plane updates, we've made several adjustments to Epic quests for a number of classes. Previously, questers of many classes were put in direct competition with regular non-questing adventurers for a few coveted spawns. In these cases, a new step has been added to separate the "Epic Encounter" NPCs from the "Epic Quest" NPCs.

For those who are mid-quest, all quest requirements have remained the same. In other words, if you turn the same items into the same NPC, the same reward applies. What has changed is that some components may be in a different location from where you expect them. It is recommended that you check with the last NPC in line or other adventurers to find where you need to go next.

Venril Sathir's spawn time increased on April 17, 2001 (4.5 months post Velious Release):

We have increased the spawn rate of Venril Sathir and his skeletal remains. Please note that only Rangers and Druids will be able to trigger the spawn for the skeletal remains, and those remains will only be dropping items for those epic quests. Hopefully these changes will dramatically reduce the competition and resentment over this spawn.
