Scheduled downtime/server reset annoncement?

Gnomish Greetings!

I have a quest mob that is bugged in Akanon (duster V does not auto pop).

Is there a regular server down time weekly, or an announcement page that states when this is happening so I can check after that occurs?

Halfling greetings to you!

Unfortunately, there is no regular weekly downtime/patch/repop. Patches occur as server management gets to them with RL getting in the way of EQ. drat! So it can be weeks to months between server resets/patches.

There is discussion of potentially allowing a some form of weekly/bi-weekly server repops, but I do not know the status of details of such discussions.

I'd post in the petition forum.

Hopefully they can take care of you. That would really suck to be stuck on a quest for months because of a bug or something like that.

Curious if anything ever happened with that post.

There is already a bug list for despawn and respawn of duster V and placeholders. I gather from the information posted there is a work around to kill placeholders. It just that the placeholders are higher level and I am also concerned about faction.

I'll see if I can get higher level to help me kill clockworks, or I'll wait until a server reset. I was just curious if I could plan for the reset an not bother anyone. I don't want to trouble guides and GMs as I am sure they have more important things than a level 5 - 10 quest mob.
