So 3 avatars spawned on Guk. Prexus, Mithaniel Marr and Tallon Zek. Sometime after that Prexus despawned before 6:00 am PST. Mithaniel Marr and Tallon Zek both despawned at 12:19 pm. So, in other words all 3 avatars despawned and they have 0 record of Prexus even spawning. They did notice there was a zone issue at 12:00 AM for Cobalt Scar but that is all they saw. 4 avatars in the past 2 weeks that have despawned....
^^We've had this happen numerous times on Guk. Are they meant to depop if not killed within the cycle? I'm pretty sure this is not the case as i know of guilds on other servers leaving them up until yhe next day when they spawn late night/early morning.
Guk is broken. What you aren't posting is that OFTEN you'd get more than 6 in your allotted 7 day window. I've had 3 people come from Sovin Nai (your guild) on Guk who think that it's normal to get 9 in a week because you'd get 3/3/3 in a 7 day window. It's something with the avatar coding that's different on guk than it is every other server. It's despawning your mobs while also allowing you to get more than 6/week. So it's broken both positively and negatively.
well first off, according to the code Kander put out. the highest you could obtain in a week is 8 (3-2-3). As he said that if 6 aren't up in the week cycle, it has the chance to spawning again (3-2 leaves 5, with a possible chance of more spawns, if lucky you could get 3 avatar spawns) there was no place where it was stated you get 6 a cycle. he just said it averages out to about 6 eventually also depending on when one cycle ends and one starts, you could get 9 in 7 days I mean he also stated that you can't get more then 6 on a server in a given cycle. but then again. how can it average out to be 6 eventually if you don't get more then 6 a few times and less then 6 a few times
We have never, ever, had 9 in a week. I'm not sure who told you we got 9, but they clearly can't count or have no idea what our window is. We've had 7 or 8 maybe twice? Where we'd get 3-2-2 or 3-2-3 or something like that, but again, it has happened once or twice, it is far from an every week thing and it has never been 9 in a week. Once we get 3-3 in a week we don't see anything more for the rest of the window. Check your sources and send them back to kindegarten because they can't count to 9 and/or identify which days fall in a 7 day window.
I have heard that on Crushbone you don't even have to camp avatars because you know exactly when they spawn....should I take that word as fact as well?
This is wrong. The highest count you're supposed to obtain in a week is 6. Any more than that means your server is not working as intended. If you don't get 6 in a week, then true there's no way for them to average to be 6 because they will never spawn > 6 per 7 days, true. He meant that you're more likely to get 6 than not, at least that was my understanding. If you've EVER gotten >6 per 7 days, your server is broken. Period.
hmm, no. once you get 6 you can't get any more avatars in your cycle. but if you get 5, that means you have a chance to spawn another time within the cycle (since 6 haven't spawned). and on that last spawn attempt, you could get between 1-3 avatars (6-8) I know you quoted me saying you could get 9. so I will explain the whole "7 day" remark by people is simply explaining a cycle. lets say a cycle ends on tuesday and a new cycle starts on wednesday. it is physically possible to get say 3 avatars on tuesday (last day of cycle one) and then 6 avatars between wednesday and next tuesday (6 days of the new cycle) making 9 in 7 days. but 2 different cycles. so anyone that doesn't know the cycle systems would give midleading info on how many avatars you could get
Wrong again. 'There can be no more than 6 avatars spawning on any given server in a 7 day period' Not 'per cycle'. 'Per 7 day period'. It means you're just wrong. I'm sorry.
I am just telling you what has happened many times, /shrugs not real recent though, this was ages ago, and even on Nagafen
It also says that it averages out to 6 per week which would mean you would have to get more than 6 in a week if you got less than 6 a week before. I'm not saying it isn't bugged in multiple ways...it wouldn't be SOE without multiple bugs. I am saying that we have lost way more due to despawn than we have got extras due to spawn bugs.
I'd totally believe that, but you DO get extras occasionally which shows it's broken in multiple ways.
Idk how I didn't see this post until just now, but this line made me chuckle out loud at work. Dem sources. EDIT: Also if the devs could leave Guk broken that would be great. I've been enjoying only killing 2-3 avatars a week, I think in the last 2 months I've logged in outside of raid time for avatars like twice.
