Intruder Earring pop conditions after a Maintenance?

[Howard Roark]

this Nm is driving me crazy, I'm sure someone out there knows when it pops after maintenance, I haven't found reliable info anywhere and after 4 camps after maintenances in the last while im getting annoyed

does it behave like bloodbead ring NM? does it pop within 3hrs after servers come up?


also, bonus karma to someone that can tell me pop conditions for tortoise shield NM after maint

thx irl

I got Tortoise shield after last weeks maintence i went 21 hours after maintence and he was up sitting there. Hope this helps.

Intruder Earring, Resentment Cape, Tortoise Shield, Yinyang Robe, etc NMs(The series that had a 21hr-21hr 15 min pop time) all pop between 20 hours 40 minutes and 21 hours 10 minutes after you can log onto the servers. Technically, I'd assume they pop 21 hours to 21 hours 15 minutes after servers are up but frequently servers are up before you can log on and that accounts for early pops. Since its far more effort than anyone would bother going to for a game to see when servers actually went up, its better to spend a few more minutes than miss it completely. I've camped all of these after maint at least once and seen them pop no earlier than 20h40m after and no later than 21:10.

Edit: Just some typos

hmm weird, guess ill show up earlier, i was actually there 35mins before the 21 hr mark after ppl were able to log on, i understand the idea that servers are typically up before ppl can log on, and u can narrow it down by the time of the int that faf pops etc

thanks tho, saves me time directly after maint and at the 21 hr mark

Intruder earring seemed to be 19 hours when I claimed it. after first death its 21 hours.

When maintenances get extended the HNMs often are up way easlier than they are supposed to be

These NMs are treated as "defeated" when the servers start back up, so wait approx the normal spawn delay to find them.
