    Cerberus window

    According to otherwiki, its 36-72 hours, bg-wiki (and since khim and hydra are) says 48-72 hours, since SE generally lack imagination when it comes to HNM from the same expansion I would have assumed cerby to be 36 as well? Has anyone seen cerby pop in less than 48 hours?

    Yes, I have seen Cerb pop in the 36-48 hr window and Khim popped at hour 38 on Lakshmi a month ago also making it a 36-72hrs pop. Hydra I have no clue since lolHydra and it is always up but I would guess it is also a 36-72 based on the fact Cerb and Khim are.

    Looked like a pretty educated/accurate response to me

    Cerb and Khim are 48-72hrs after their death. After a maint its another story but anyone who says he saw it pop less than 48hrs or more than 72hrs after its death simply lies or dont know how to read a clock.

    Ding ding ding, winner!

    Go camp Cerb and Khim hardcore while keeping good data and you will find this is true.

    Cerb/Khim is 48-72 from time of death (notice max is 24 hours meaning 24 possible windows every 1 hour).
    When servers go up, it is around (since you do not know exactly when servers go up) 12-36Hours.

    Kind of like this guy takes misinformation and turns it into a general idea. Notice he says Khim can go past 72hours, and look where he based his information off of.

    Notice when I said Khim/Cerb is 12-36 hours (max 24hours in between) after server goes up.

    1.) He says Cerb popped 15hours after maint.
    2.) He says Khim popped 32hours after maint.

    Those two fit between 12-36 hour window (max 24 hours).

    Cerb is 12-24 and Khim is 24-36 after a maint.

    Re: Cerberus window

    TOAU worldspawns only have a 24 hour window after 48 hours have passed since the mob's last death. Yes tom, every time.

    After maintenance window starts 12 hours after server up, 24 hours long.

    Re: Cerberus window

    Unless you guys have bad luck, you're wrong. We regularly camp Cerberus, it pops before the 48 hour mark usually once a week. Khim....ls mate spent so many long nights out there, I feel bad for him, but it has popped before the 48th hour a few times (that I've been on at least, I'm sure it's been more than a few).

    I know what my experience is with these mobs, I know my ls keeps tracks of every ToD of anything we have a person at or kill, and I know that it's definitely not 48-72 normally.

    Re: Cerberus window

    Either Lakshmi is bugged or you guys cant read the clock. 103 killed Cerberus and way over 150 Camped, 58 killed Khimairas and way over 100 camped. NONE spawned outside the 48-72 window unless there was a maint. I doubt we are just unlucky with those large numbers...This somehow reminds me on the HQs being up after maint discussion...

    Man I am so damn sick of all these people who claim cause they haven't seen it themselves then it can't be true. I gave an ACCURATE hr mark when Khimaira spawned last month on Lakshmi. It popped on Hour 38 after ToD. We have killed plenty of Cerb and Khim and a few times they have popped before the 48hr mark and we have claimed uncontested because a lot of people are under the mis-representation that they are 48-72hr pops.

    FYI my LS has a ToD tracker which we plug in the ToD per mob and then the window as 36-72 on these mobs. At 36 it tells us to go camp it so we do and oh look the mob pops, we claim, we kill, we get drops. Enough said. Maybe Lakshmi is bugged as you seem to claim but for my server these are 100% true 36-72 hr pops.

    If they're getting loot at hour 38, they're not really wasting their time now, are they?

    No but on a serious note Khim and Cerb are 48-72.

    Re: Cerberus window

    Hmm.. well I've spent a shitload of time camping Khim like most PLD, and I've yet to see a spawn before 48 hours after death. I'd say I've personally camped 80+ Khimaira's... so the chance is rarer than 1/80 for a pre 48hr spawn if there is such a thing

    Since in reality they are getting loot at the 48th hour, yes it is a waste of at most 12 hours approximately every 2 days until they stop camping it from the 36th hour.
