Description: I am trying to get the rare npc Guard Captain N'Mar in the HA The King's Court in Neriak - Fourth Gate/Call of the Forsaken for teh Achievement Hunter of Neriak - Fourth Gate II.

Now I do know that I can just be unlucky but I have run the mission many times and I see something that makes me think there is a bug. Most of the times I get the placeholder Guard V'Rett, as one would do with bad luck. But sometimes (rarely) I do get instead Guard D'Lorn. Now that does not make any sense to me as Guard Captain N'Mar is only having one placeholder afaik. Which is why I think that for some reason the mission does spawn Guard D'Lorn instead of Guard Captain V'Rett.

Maybe someone can do a quick check for this please. Thank you!

In general, if devs chased down every "hey check this for me", they would never get any work done. You need verifiable, reproduceable issues for them to open a fix ticket (and no, not finding a named doesn't count as 99% of the time they have wasted looking they have found a recent kill).

Rozz T`Ver gives out 3 missions. Granted it's player info, but Guard D`Lorn is only tagged in Royal Access which is one of the 3 and the first one in the list. Are you accepting King's Court or Royal Access, both of those go into the parlor at the end. D`Lorn isn't a rare mob so I can't see how that would even be something that could happen.

Nothing wrong found in the mission.

I get your point but I only do run The King's Court and I do rarely get Guard D'Lorn if I don't get the common Guard V'Rett. I am not playing this game since yesterday. I am aware that Guard D'Lorn should not show up in The King's Court which is why I think it got bugged.
I do have screenshot but not with the task window up. Will make some tomorrow, if that's helping. Finished the HA, so I have a replay timer atm.

If you can screenshot D`Lorn in Kings Court in the parlor, which server and log lines showing timestamp of mission and timezone, else they won't know what log files to look at.

Ran it again, there's gotta be 2 mobs that can spawn in place and you've just been unlucky (because I did get the named). I got lucky getting it on the first try. Remember, player info is only so accurate as to what is submitted, and may not represent the entirety of the server data.

Any special command for "log lines showing timestamp of mission and timezone"? I can get the instance number when I request the mission and a generic timestamp.

Ah, so you I guess you got Guard D'Lorn too. I do not think this is on purpose but a bad configuration. No other named in the expansion is configured like that and D'Lorn belongs to another HA. Even typos do get fixed sometimes, so I did report it. For me a bad config that alters the intended chance for a named mob (taking hours of my game time) is more disturbing to the gameplay than some slightly wrong configured items in the current raid game - and those get fixed all the time.

ZAM is not the ultimate source of info, it could be wrong, or incomplete. It's only as good as someone has entered, doesn't mean its a litmus for how the game is configured. We can't always tell the intention just from playing the game. CotF was always rough trying to get named to spawn, and it could be in this instance the designer put in 3 mobs in the spawn table, doesn't mean its wrong. Named did spawn, so it's not broken.
