During the course of the past few days of camping Carmine Dobsonflys, We've been trying to pop this NM with virtually no luck at all. Is it actually a 21-24 hour pop or does it have some stupid spawn conditions?

I've only killed this once about a year ago on Fairy and the Sable Cuisses has only been seen on the AH twice while the Falconer's Hose has not once ever been seen so I'm almost willing to believe it's never dropped ever.

Still confused on how this guy pops...

Edit: Over 50 people have looked at this thread and nobody knows nothing about this NM?

Here's some more details on it but other then it being a lotto which I'm sure it is, it's still pretty cryptic on how long of a timer it has.

CoP caps zones have like the least amount of information on NMs that I've seen in this game. Outside of maybe Boroka and the Soburo NMs, It's really hard to locate information on mobs other then tidbits or 2nd hand knowledge of how to pop or find them.

Usually ppl get there, see if they're up and either call for reinforcement or just warp and come back later to check again.

No, Aiatar

I think people don't know because no one goes after this NM really...

As far as I know, it's just lottery, it'd be interesting to find out if there's anything else to it.

The times we popped it, it took maybe an hour or so. I'm not aware of any timer on the lotto, but then again we didn't try multiple times in one day and I'm sure no one else on the server was camping it while we were asleep.

Hunting NM's in CoP cap zones in 2005 was great, it was like ground in early/mid '04 when you could just see Fafnir up and then call for reinforcements heh.

I sure hope Tiamat, Cerberus, and Khimaira never undergo the same sort of transition.

I still don't think anyone camps aiatar on most servers(or even kills it when it's up), judging by ffxiah.com.

You got wooshed, but Khamsin's inference was subtle so it's like a little one, like when you gotta fart but you're in a public situation so you fake a cough and try to gently let it out.

What? No I think it was generally straight forward
