    About ~3 minutes after we started spamming Flaming Arrow on the entrance, Garlok spawned. This was 2-3 hrs after the first server claimed a kill so I think it definitely is a condition for the spawn.

    Pics of Nandi kill on Sargatanas. Spawned right next to camp bronze lake during fair weather. As far as we can tell, nobody did anything intentionally that appears to have forced the spawn.

    People were spamming flaming arrow at the cave more than twelve hours before Leviathan's first spawn, though.

    This game does have some fucked up things you have to do to have things done; see sightseeing log.

    Yes but did the bards get their bows crafted from mats earned from fighting mobs that came from a fished-up peisteskin map

    Hate to say it, but it seems like it is. That is what we tried and it immediately came up.

    We tried it a bunch yesterday but to no avail.

    Could it be possible that it's window is every 24 hours but to spawn the mob it needs to have met or passed its window and Flaming Arrow must be used?

    Wait, it popped once while doing this and people are speculating anything other then a coincidence? Or are you agreeing with it having a timer? Way too early and no data to go on to think that spamming a spell somehow makes it pop.

    What about if you craft with a fire crystal at the spot?

    Just saying; it's not out of the realm of possibilities in regards of doing weird shit for something to trigger; see sightseeing log. Granted that's just weather/time of day/poses... it's still not outta the ordinary :<

    Just adding in the text for those people who havent seen the npc and have no idea why anyone would think a gimmick is involved

    Hunter-scholar: Well, you get the idea. They found the beast and woke the damn thing up. Now it's well rested and still a mite annoyed at being roused with torches and arrows.

    Of course. It's not just the flaming arrow. You need a blm to sleep a mob nearby and a summoner/scholar to use rouse as well!

    Not saying it was a bad idea to try, just seems that it's not what's causing a pop if all the servers are getting a spawn within a 2 hour period.

    Except for the fact that all servers are also reporting that someone was using Flaming Arrow on the cave when it popped. News travels real fast.

    What method are people using when hunting these things? Are you running circuits? I see people reporting having 200+ notes already.

    Try people already have 750+ seals already.

    And yes, running circuits in parties + linkshells.
