Ancient Cyclops Spawns

[GSZ]

Just read on the wiki that AC only spawns in SRo as for January 2014. Anybody able to confirm this is accurate? Or is the OOT spawn still active?

Thanks for any info on this!

That's not what the Wiki says, actually. Re-read it.

It says that the SRo spawns only at night.

"Note: As of January 18, 2014. Ancient Cyclops appears to be coded to spawn only at night now in Sro"


Still reads to me like it only spawns in Sro at night now (and not other zones). But thanks for clarifying!

"...only at night now in SRo."

Not "only in SRo now at night."

That is worded a little funny, I see your concern. It spawns in oot without a doubt. Just go to oot and do a camp check. It's usually only camped about 24 hours a day with 2 or 3 people in line

"...only at night now in SRo."

Not "only in SRo now at night."

Hmmm I understood it as you did, but that too could be misconstrued. What we need here is a sturdy pair of braces and/or a clarifying statement like this:

.... {only at night} in SRo. He OOT spawn remains unchanged.

Or we could just change it to say" ... no longer spawns during the day in SRo" removing any potential confusion created by the absolute negation.

Who's confused?

That's what I thought ^^

That be true sad to say. :o

It has a section for SRO, where it has that note.

Then a separate section for OOT spawns.


How is this confusing????

Regardless of whether or not you understood it, it can easily be misinterpreted.

"Only spawns at night in sro"

You'd have to be daft to not understand how a person could misinterpret that

Fixed. If you don't like the way someone has worded it, update it.

Note: As of January 18, 2014. The South Ro Ancient Cyclops appears to be only spawnable at night and he is much more rare than before. /tar # macro no longer works, and until more testing is done, he can spawn *anywhere* in the desert now and is no longer a static spawn.

Was going to troll and add South Ro 3 more times in the sentence but hopefully that reads better :p

Swish - not the hero wiki readers want, but the hero we NEED

Challenge accepted.

Just so I understand correctly, if I'm hunting the SRo cyclops will it help if I clear the entire desert at 3PM to give a greater chance for him to pop once 7PM hits? Or is he just given a x% chance to spawn which is irrelevant if the desert is fully populated or empty or living mobs.

A guildmate of mine got SRO AC a couple nights ago. He popped right at 9pm gametime.

[Swish]

...and if it needed clearing up, he still spawns in OOT on rare occasions :)

[Rararboker]

I've personally seen SRO AC spawn at 9pm about 96% of the time. Once or twice I've seen him spawn in the middle of the night. The other couple dozen times? 9pm.

[indiscriminate_hater]

my last SRO AC popped sometime during the day. i distinctly remember it being sunny

[Swish]

It's always sunny when you loot a Ring of the Ancients ;)

ROFL Cecily. I see what you did there ^_^
