My guess is they can spawn in multiple zones. With the key item from the NPC in your posession, you wander around. It changes color (maybe dialogue change? "The compass is now red" or whatever) when you're in the correct zone. Run around and it pops and aggros you when you reach the correct spot.

Only question is how often can they be killed?

[travOtaku]

Eurytos doesn't drop Eurytos's Bow, for instance.

That was the one! Thanks, that was gonna drive me nuts. But yeah, based on this I wouldn't just assume that's the drop because of the names of the NM and item, even though it seems obvious.

You guys asked for a flying type wyrm that roams multiple zones waiting for its prey and you might have gotten it.

Would be cool if the wyrm flys around and you claim it by going under it like a UFO.

Sick of camping time sink HNMs lol. I rather hope its force pop but the "???" roams the different zones every 30 mins like jailer of faith's pop kinda and once you pop it, it has a 3min repop timer to pop again or a 15 min repop timer and roams the 8 different zones <pos> until it is popped again.

I think the

Dex +6 Zilant ring is from the wyrm NM.
MND +6 karka ring is from the crab.
AGI +6 ring BLOBnag is from the blon slime NM.
CHR+6 Veela ring is from the pixie.
STR+6 ring comes from vampyre Nm.
VIT ring comes from Antlion Nm.

INT ring comes from what? the vampyre also? or does the wyrm drop 2 instead of 1 ring since he pops in 8 different zones. I most likely missed or forgot to mention an 8th NM that drops the INT ring instead.

STR and DEX are the best stat looking rings so its no common sense that they drop from the 2 roaming NMs. But the INT ring seems to be the most badass ring on the list also. Betting that the INT ring will be the hardest one to obtain, then DEX, then STR, with CHR being the easiest one to get.

that mean everyone will need to buy those keyitem for each NM, i can see alot of - inventory space

[Nevex]

The unnamed Dark Divinity was mentioned during CoP (after the Snoll Tzar fight) as the one who gave the Shadow Lord his powers.

That would be Promathia, I think.

They gave us one torque to replace the dark/ele combo most of us use now. NOW FILL THAT SPACE BACK UP WITH OTHER SHIT QUICKLY

Well Zinirtra Already does that ^.^

But even if that was the case, I'm not gonna walk around the all zone for him to go down on me ><; I like to stay in one spot and scan!

I have to agree. I really don't know of anyone who enjoys the DI/sandworm scanning rigmarole. It's a good idea in theory, but ultimately it's just fucking annoying.

Insert joke about walking through any zone for an NM to go down on me.

[Karbuncle]

Pretty sure the Shadow lord gained his powers by releasing Odin from the Dark Protocrystal beneath Castle Zvahl... meaning It's probably Odin.

I think

Edit:

A Stygian Pact
Client: Nashmeira
(Throne Room, Imperial Ward)
Summary:
To reclaim the soul of Prince Luzaf,
you have have entered an unholy
covenant with the Dark Divinity. What
trials await you as Odin's knight?
Shrink not from the shadows, and be
strong in your convictions, that you
might emerge unscathed!

Pretty clear the Dark Divinity is Odin, considering you made a pact with said Divinty and are now named Odin's Knight.

[Rocl]

Are you a mithra per chance, nevex? (It's Odin. Almost 100% certain, this patch looks like it will remove the "almost")

Prishe: But, as that doesn't bother me one bit, you shouldn't let it bother you either.
What I want to hear is the lowdown on the big boss behind the Kindred of the Northlands.

Prishe: The Mithra seem to think that it's Promathia, but I know better than that.

Prishe: So, who the hell is it?

He's called the Divinity of Darkness by the beastmen, apparently.

Louverance: I returned here to investigate that very fact...

Louverance: The legends of the northern islands tell that the Divinity of Darkness slumbers in this land.

Louverance: At some time in the past, the Shadow Lord followed the voice of this sleeping deity to its source.

Louverance: His actions led by the powerful stone in the possession of the Shadow Lord, the Divinity of Darkness created an army of demons to enter the service of his visitor.

Prishe: I think I'm starting to get it now.
The being who the beastmen call Promathia is actually...

Zirnitra already does that..

this new dragon NM.. Yilbegan.. doesn't fly at all. at least not according to the dats.

[Ivve]

I'm just gonna post here to get an admins touch on this thread. If you comment on anything your shit is getting deleted.

Just saying, guys. Brb getting infracted for backseat modding.

[Jakaar]

Bonanza Kupon L? Limbus?

[Draylo]

hmmm.


I really hope these NM just pop from a ??? force pop, don't wanna get into the whole competition for content again.

[Rocl]

Bonanza Kupon L? Limbus?

Lerics, clearly

[Gtype954]

I'm hoping they are all force popped though. They seem to drop 1 ring at best and using an alliance of 18 ppl to camp a 24 hour respawn pop wyrm that pops in 8 DIFFERENT zones for 1 ring doesn't seem right...

Force pop or epic fail on SE's part.

[Gergall]

Bonanza Kupon L? Limbus?

LS member suggests Lambton Worm.

To me the fairest HNM camps in this game are the ones you cannot bot to claim on spawn, i.e worm and pony, tbh i enjoy hunting these two.

and unfortunately yes, you have to deal with competition for HNM, tbh if you could claim everyday your linkshells would cap too fast for the content to draw out, thus HNM ect would become pointless to do after a point.

I take 0.1% drop rate but let me fight whenever i want, thats what i consider content, not 0.1% chance of a ls going try to kill it that only few will ever kill until they bored
