Killing the ph at 10 am means your next spawn will be 8 pm. The trick then is to kill the 8 pm ph ASAP so you will get another spawn at 6 am, technically night still. If the 6 am spawn is a ph you wait until 10 am to kill it; rinse, repeat. This method allows two potential night spawns.

An SG in the mix can definitely screw you up, which is why if he borked his timing and knew the next spawn would be during the day, he may have just wanted to leave the ph up until 10 am, ensuring a swift kill and a prompt 8 pm spawn.

To answer your question directly -- if he was at or near the spawn (I think on this server it is generally accepted that the hill north of the ud tower and west of the dervs is the ac "camp" spot) and you ran in and killed the ph, you encroached on his camp. You should always check the area prior to engaging a ph there. People love to afk in that spot with a pet up, and I know a few have been booted to char select by a gm because of it.

Hope this answers your question. By what you've said, it seems you were in the wrong.

You are a fucking moron, Sir. I constantly see you posting inane shit in peoples threads. This guy is asking a completely valid question so let me just link the server Camp Rules because that way everyone will think i am funny and smart. Instead of chillin on your pedestal way up there and tossing insults down at us mere mortals you should maybe try SHUTTING THE FUCK UP.

This thread like a lot of threads on these forums are pointless and just pathetic. The camping rules are obvious to any smart player. If there is a dispute then petition a GM, that fucking simple.

I could just sit back and do nothing with troll/retard posts. However, just as some chooses to be a fucking retard, I choose to be a fucking asshole. Isn't freedom is speech grand?

One last thing. If you can't get the heat, get out of the fucking kitchen! Glad to see that you are reading my posts. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Enough of this twaddle.


Teensy, you are right sir. I could have sworn kith mobs started spawning at 8PM, but I default to the P99 FAQ.

Common knowledge that the SRO AC PH must be killed within a certain timeframe, otherwise it will be near impossible to spawn aside from accidently killing it when it should be.

Common knowledge does not mean everyone knows this though, but for the next time you run through -- you will.

I personally would be in favor of the dude camping the mob simply because i know how it works, and 90% of the server tends to respect the fact the SRO PH must be killed at a specific time.

yeah, this strikes me as a time where leaving it up but staying "on top" of the spawn would certainly still count

It wasn't me, I was the one running through the zone, not the one camping it without killing it. And while I agree with the theory of leaving it up until a certain time during daylight, this was early EQ night time when I ran through the zone and found the PH up and roaming. He told me he wasn't killing the PH at all. He also told me killing mobs that spawn near the PH will interfere with AC popping. It was just an incorrect interpretation of how AC cycle works. Thanks for answer though concerning killing vs. sitting.

You just messed up his PH cycle.

game time does not start until 9pm from what I read. So if you kill that PH at 10 you will have a daytime spawn at 8pm. If you kill it at 11am it will be a night spawn at 9pm game time. I read that on the big thread about the AC spawn and nigth/daytime mechanics. You may want to confirm, but I read P99 is 9pm to 7am = night. 8am-8pm = day. Can anyone confirm? There are so many people saying so many different things.
