Sandworm broken?

[Aragon of Odin]

After last maintenance it took 3 days to pop for us, unless we somehow missed it but I doubt. Had a total of like 1 KA in the past 2-2.5 months which is depressing.

Edit: Would have been 2 KA's BUT the time we got him in E.Ron he wouldn't Doomvoid after holding him for like 2hr's.

[Lyramion]

...and it skip day again lol


My explanation:

Sandworm got patched from male to female

It didn't pop 20-26 (We stayed extra) for us either today and still hasn't now ~28 later.

Not necrobumping, just didn't think this needed a brand new topic.

Has Sandworm been popping in a variety of zones for everyone else? It's been doing nothing but Windurst zones for over a week now here, just want to make sure it's only a coincidence.

Mostly pops in Windurst zones here with the occasinal bastok zone now and again on Odin, hasn't popped in a KA zone for a long time now

[Zidiane]

I've only been checking on worm again for about a week now, but its never been sandy of the past week (Duno about last night because 4-7/8am scaning f- that)

Edit: Didn't realise till now Zealot is same server D:

Same for us, only popping in Serket Locations. And 2 days ago it never popped.

This may be irrelevant to the conversation, but my LS had trouble getting it to Doomvoid twice while I was on, once when I wasn't. Note that this was all before MMM was even implemented.

We also ran into the no Doomvoid problem once after MMM was released. I haven't been very active lately, so I know little about SW's current spawn conditions.

*Each time held for 2 hours, brought it down from 30% to 0% on nothing but stone 1's. (most of us using Auster's staff for a whopping 2 dmg)

[S N K]

So just ran into another glitch.

It seems that it popped twice in the same day. LS Found it at about 4am in the morning in West Saru [S], Killed it inside with Serket.

Later that day, It popped again at about 9am. Claimed and killed Guiver inside.

Soooo what'd SE do this time?

Speaking of Doomvoid, Another shell on our server had claim on it and their main PLD Shield Bashed Doomvoid and stunned it. I guess Worm will only do that move once like it's a 2 hour because they kited it to 1% and spammed Banish on it before it finally died.

At least they all got new titles.

So, we killed Lambton Worm a few nights ago and during the night and the following morning, Sandworm pops at least 4 more times. It depopped at least 3 times and was killed by another LS once.

[Darwinion]

Last week we watched a JP shell get DVed by SW... and not 5 mins later (while the JPs were still fighting Serket) SW was up again in another zone. After the first one DVed I got D2ed and was running to MH when one of the party members (alliance still together) shouted that SW was up in Batallia [S]. This mob is weird.

[Aragon of Odin]

Last week we went on a stint where it didn't pop for just over 72hrs. I HATE this mob with a passion, why do his drops have to be so damn good ; ;

I don't think depop > pops count as real glitch pops though. SW has always been known to depop and pop again an hr or so later. But yeah, it has been repopping twice every now and then which is really strange.

[Pyro]

The thing is, we killed it one day then it popped again 25 hours later and we killed it and then it popped again 22 hours later and we killed it. I'm just amazed at the fact that it popped so soon after popping normally for the three previous days.

[Tyrath]

Its started popping as normal again this past week ;|

[Diomer]

Wouldn't DV for us today after an hour combined of spamming spell and TP spamming and eventually raging. We got it again with reset rage and it still wouldn't DV. No one in Everbloom Hollow. It was probably going to be Lambton and I'm pretty sure the last time it did something funny, it was going to be Lambton too (Last time it did something funny, it just didn't pop.) so I think it might have something to do with that. It was in Batallia [S] too btw.

Sandworm getting c/s stunned to prevent doomvoid on our server..

Seems like someone is intentionally forcing HQs and/or repop times.

Anyone have info on repop after non-void ToD or other reasons why this would be beneficial?

(Occured in w.saru this time and is not the first time they've been witnessed doing this- it's obviously being manipulated for some benefit.)

And, as a bonus GM-preventative measure, they always make sure to /say "Title need ^^ www" when they pull this shit (yes, ALL have title, don't even speculate legitimacy.)

Our NEET are sooo kawaii.

That is actually a good idea...

Why would they ever do that :/

[arus2001]

Wonder if killing it causes it to respawn a couple hours later. Thus, since most people would figure it gone til next day, they'd be free to pull it off somewhere remote when it reappears and skew the ToD a bit more to guarantee further claims. Really the only thing I can think of unless someone's found an obscure use for the fangs if they can still drop, even.

[savageboy]

they know something, nelas been doing that shit for months. i catch him at odd times scouting the zones and peculiarly ive seen him hornet ally in 2 diff worm bc zones in a span of 2-3 hrs.

so whatever im sure someone knows some shit out there and not gonna let anyone in on the fun

^ maybe something like that. b/c u make a lot more money from guivre than serket so maybe they just make it repop to bastok
