![]() Description:
I'm working on The Lost Map quest. There's minimal contest to the quest right now, so I managed to camp (14+ hours total) and kill Stormfeather and also spotted and killed Lodizal with 3 other handsome adventurers. Everything seems fine so far, I have 2nd and 4th part of the map. In my memories Stormfeather was the bottleneck of this quest on live and I suspect him being a bottleneck here too once it's live. The first piece of the map can be looted off of a dire wolf stalker, a rare spawn in Iceclad Ocean. Afaik, this rare wolf supposed to spawn on the island with the wizard portal and the bridge to Eastern Wastes. Placeholders are dire wolfs and according to nilbog, it's debatable that frost giant scouts too. I've spent 10+ hours there all by myself (boxing a ranger not to miss the named). I've killed 136 dire wolf and 126 frost giant scouts. At some point a guildy bard was helping me clear the whole island so the kill count is even higher. Nilbog confirmed that the rare wolf can spawn but even if I had horrible luck, I would like to suggest an increase to the spawn chance. This spawn rare won't be viable when it goes live. Relevant NPCs: a dire wolf stalker Evidence/Research: Previous beta discussion: http://www.project1999.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=142029 Spawn locations according to Magelo. p.s. Did anyone on beta completed this quest or even saw a dire wolf stalker up?

![]() Even on live it was a looong camp for the wolf. After reading bunch of posts I moved to the stone statue thing (south west of the druid ring) and killed everything that pathed near it which was mostly wolves and dervishes. A lot of hour later it finally popped.

![]() Some more info.
Evidence/Research: Dire wolf stalker discussion on Zam . There's not much reference for him being this rare. I mean if he would be rare, I'm sure there would be tons of complaining posts.

![]() I have also spent about 8 hours killing and haven't seen him spawn, (I have pages 2,3,4 myself). Did a lot of work to make sure I was in the right area, which agrees with what was posted so far.

![]() I was the guildy bard helping him. I just did a few rounds of wolf kills--probably 60-80 extra kills while there, over 30 minute period of time.
Everything that Ive read on allah seemed to indicate that the wolf could be spawned within an hour or so: "Hi, it also worked for me. I strictly followed the instructions. I spent about half of an hour killing dire wolves (and snow dervished and ice giants as they were popping on me), then found a dire wolf stacker spawning. " "Confirmed this is a valid tactic. He spawnd for me within 20 minutes of clearing the wolfes." Admittedly,the above posts were written much later in time. Also, the above post seemed to suggest there was a specific spawn location. However, Nilbog's post seems to suggest that it is a rare spawn at any location that a Direwolf or giant can spawn at. If that is the case, then perhaps the posts on allakhazam are not very trustworthy.... Dolic | ||

![]() Spent numerous time killing supposed PH's over the past couple days, and he never spawned as well. At first I tried just killing the spawns near that location as stated on Allakhazam around -1199, +5615, and then just started killing just about everything on the island.
Perhaps we should take a couple minutes and just aoe the island a few times? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Kin | ||

![]() classic dire wolf models did not have nameplates. that part is working as intended.
Looked into this further. There was definitely an issue with dire wolf stalker spawning.. or in this case, not spawning. :X Fixed, pending update. | ||
