Tainted Wooly Mammoth?

Boilon · #1 07-22-2016, 07:44 PM

I'm having massive problems with this for some reason... I don't remember this being so bad before. I have been checking the spawn points that are listed on the wiki and it seems either the spawn times are VERY high now, or they aren't spawning in the said spots. I am also wondering if Tundra Jack is going around killing the Tainted after it spawns and I am just not noticing it or anything. I tried to kill Tundra Jack but then had some issues lol...

Been hunting this for 3 hours to no avail. Does anyone have any particular tips to get them to spawn a bit more, I have been hunting down any wooly mammoths, but just not seeing any tainted.

Can Tundra Jack kill the tainted/corrupted? Because he does kill any other mammoths he runs through... so I am wondering if that is what is happening as well. Not a big problem if he is killing the others as it might actually help spawn the tainted, but not if he is killing that too [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I went from level 27-33 charming and killing Mammoths with my Druid and everywhere I turned I would run into the tainted or corrupted Mammoth.

I think he wanted me to take him home as a new pet and get him out of the cold...

Tainted or corrupted are commonly up - just ran around and do some tracking while killing mammoths. Enjoy it though... this camp is much more fun than you'll find Lake Rathetear I'm afraid.

Well some people are telling me just kill regular wooly mammoths, and others are saying clear everything, and some just wooly mammoth calfs. So does anyone who has killed it or have experience with it longer term know what I should be killing?

Yes, Tundra Jack ends tainteds and corrupteds without mercy. The first one I found on track was immediately destroyed before I got to it.

This one is super easy compared to the goblin in lake rathe and barracuda in loio

Are you going around killing every calf in zone? I think I spawned about 3 of these inside of 45-50 minutes.

Isn't there a specific calf with a different name to the others that spawns this?
