Thank you gentlemen for the positive feedback. Hope you guys give it a go as it's alot of fun!
Above are the two main weapons I use working this spawn.
I think your best off using Hit Cold Area on Tier 2 against the Centaurs but you have to be vigilant and move around to make sure your not hitting any positive karma critters.
Since I redid my Heartwood Suit a few days ago suit I'm finding I really don't need the Mana Increase Items because I already have them on my current suit. I'm walking around with 70 Mana and it seems to be sufficient.
The double Axe works fine against Satyr as they really pose no threat until they start playing their flute. Against the Paragon Raging Grizzlies the axe could use some HSL as the bears pack a big punch. I might consider making another Double Axe tailored towards dealing with the Bears.
I ran my standard world beater template with Anatomy instead of Parry:
120 Swordsmanship
120 Bushido
120 Tactics
120 Anatomy
100 Necromancy
50 Chivalry
90 Spirit Speak
I'm going to go for one more Dreadhorn statuette then move on to Bedlam, Doom, Abysmal Infernal or Medusa.

We wants it...
We needs it...
Must have... the precious!

Oh that is it. I have had it with you and your hateful, hateful gnomes. I'm calling in the troops:
-
roflmao good thing about gnomes is theres always one to drop kick somewhere
-
Great writeup, I went in to give it a try and got to 3 candles of satyrs easily before having the whole thing fall apart on me, I think with practice and more appropriate weapons it'll be in the bag.

The 100% Fire Double Axe is key. Honoring (Bushido) is also critical because you regain mana after the final blow so that will help in being able to spam double strike. Wraith form should work too but you lose mobility.
It's also huge that you if you can bump the altar on Tier 3 on the first rung of candles. I like to kill off the centaurs then immediately invoke valor on the altar to kick it up a rung. That will make the next group of candles easier to progress. If you can get past the Satyr's to the bears then your home free.
And yea practice makes perfect. I have a very easy time with this spawn now because I've done it so many times. First few times I dogged it and there were times when I had to give up and call it quits.
A good understanding of how Barding skills work can also help you:
If a Satyr provokes something onto you it will be agressive towards you as long as it's within range of the satyr or until that satry is killed. Soon as you kill the Satyr that provoked the timer starts for the expiration.
You don't always have to run out the exit if you know what Satyr provoked on you and you can get to him and kill him. ;)

Any tips on crafting a 100% fire double axe? I've burned through several DC runics and haven't gotten anything that would enhance to 100% fire even.

I believe there is a public crafting script in the submit your script that was a joint effort of Paulonius and Coragin. I've used that before to make alot of good weapons but it's not 100% functional. You have to keep an eye on it because it can miss a weapon or two. You can find it Here (http://www.scriptuo.com/index.php?topic=5371.0;highlight=elemental)!
Anything with 60% Fire you should be able to enhance with Bronze up to 100%. Fire is the easiest of all the elemental weapons to craft....Poison the hardest.
Keep tryin' and don't give up. Trust me when you get one you'll know that it was worth the time it took to get one.

Figures. Of all the things in game to be lucky on, the RNG gives me THIS. I can't spit without popping out 100% poison weapons. Yet, somehow, I am pushing 80+ renowneds without a BB...

I'm getting an error on that link; I suspect the script may no longer be public. I looked in the public area and didn't see it... I'll keep on plugging though, eventually I should get one. :)

Oh boy...I'm on a roll lately. :-[ Too much on my mind these days with school starting.
That script is actually in Paulonious's special project section. If you want PM me what shard your on...I have a few fire double axes on a few shards. I can spare one if your on of the shards where I have characters. I think I've seen your character on one of the shards I'm on....
-
No big deal, I figured it was an accident. I really appreciate the offer... sent you a PM.

Oh man... what an adventure I've been on all damn day... This write-up btw was great, I appreciate it. After spending about 200 runic hammers, I finally made a 100% fire axe for the grizzly bears. I found another 100% fire i imbued for the satyrs too.
So i attempted the third tier, and holy hell! They kept spawning into paragon satyrs, so had to get my bard down there, which by the way was the ticket to getting the satyrs back to normal hue. I had 2 reverts going back down to tier 2. When I remembered... The new fey slayer katana "Defiler of Virtue" ! Oh yeah!, that was the ticket! honor + double strike, sometimes killed them in 2 hits! So that was going good, still eventually running out of regular satyrs, so had to log in the bard and take some karma hits provoking cu's and satyrs to keep the level from reverting to 2... then all of the sudden, ALL the paragons disappeared and spawned regular ones. I knew that was my chance, and finally the candles lit up like a christmas tree. But what a friggin pain that level was! ???
By the time I got to the grizzlies, I knew I was home free! they were a cinch with the fire weapon.
100% fire - 50% HSL - 50% HLA - 62% HML - 30 SSI Double axe.
But no luck with loot. Twaulo of the Glade was a TURKEY! And I got a flippin cornucopia! haha... :P But that Dreadhorn statue will be mine!

Thanks again for the writeup, what a great challenge it was!
-
Oh that's right. Everything is turkeys for the holiday. Congrats on the victory!

Nicely done Seeriusly. It's not any easy spawn to solo by any means especially if you get bad rolls and get Paragons on Tier 3. ;)
I've actually been wanting to do this spawn again. It's my favorite spawn hands down. I think I have 4 or 5 DH's stored away on various shards which goes to show how much I love that particular spawn and the Twisted Weald.
I have HLD, HML, SSI and Hit Lightning on my tailor made axe for the Twisted Weald. HLD because you don't want to whiff on those Satyr. They don't pose any threat until they start with thier Pied Piper routine which seems to take about 3-4 seconds.
I load up on Mana Increase for Tier 3 just over 100 Mana for the Satyr which makes spamming Double Strike very easy. Helm of Insight, RBC, +8 Int Bracelet and Ring that I equip just for that tier.
It's a real pain in the ass when Paragons keep spawning on Tier 3 you just have to battle through it. I usually park a Bard close by to deal with them if it gets out of hand but you can do it all alone without any help. It's just more of a headache dealing with the Paragon Satyrs via melee but I've done it a few times just for the true solo experience. I'll lure Paragons to the gate and Double Strike them to death or use the Momentum Strike trick which seems to work on some shards but not on others.
Don't forget that Bear Slayer Talisman!
Funnest spawn in game! Give Bedlam a try afterwards it's equally challenging.
Keep at it and you'll get the elusive Dreadhorn Statuette (Best statuette in the game...Dreadhorn>Daemonic Crisis imo).
Much respect...post a screenshot when you get the statuette! 8)
-
Oh yeah that's right, I DID use RBC and pendant of magi for the int bonus, took me to 85 Mana. I did the spawn again last night, and it was a breeze. Only thing I screwed up on was I didn't get the honor on Tualo... What a pain that was. I swore I got it, but it must've told me something like too far away or something, and I didn't catch it. And I did use the bear slayer talisman. Those grizzlies go down fast! I will do this until I get a couple dreadhorns. It was really easy the second time.
Allthough... I need to fix me up a script for the wisps and centaurs, cause what a pain that is clicking them.
The first time when I was having a hard time, I had a bard near the altar discoing all the satyrs. turns out I never needed him when using the Defiler of Virtue Katana. That is the way to go.
Thanks again ultima! That gave me the confidence to try out Bedlam. I hate those pesky fetids though, GRRR. I suspect I'll have that dreadhorn statue soon. It's a must, I have a HUGE statuette collection. :)

So I have been testing this killing Twalo with momentum strike (which doesn't make him attack you), and I haven't got a drop in about 15-20 kills. I wondered if it made any difference if you stood toe-to-toe with him rather than using that "bug" against him... still get looting rights, but haven't had a drop. Anyone ever get a drop by just momentum striking him? Or is the RNG just not on my side.

Interesting...
Obviously there is no way of knowing for sure. When I used Momentum Strike on Twaulo is when I had my bad runs 0-20 actually I went even more than that. It was bad..real bad. What client are you using Momentum strike on and it's working?
I've tried on on several shards using Momentum Strike with the EC Client but it does not work. Maybe it was with UOKR that it worked and now it only works in 2D? Or perhaps it's something else.
These days I just bring a bard and use a Paragon Cu Sidhe. Discord Twaulo and have him attack a full strength Paragon Cu Sidhe. Cu Sidhe beats the hell out of him and he's barely able to provoke anything onto the Paragon Cu Sidhe cause all the woodland dwelling critters are scared at the repercussions of attacking a paragon cu sidhe. ;)
I ended up working the spawn on Sonoma a few weeks ago and it didn't take me but 2 or 3 days and I landed a Dreadhorn Statuette.
Sounds like there is something to the bug even though there shouldn't be.
Try a bard...can't hurt. Also are you the guy on Balhae doing the spawns? There has been someone doing them on Balhae which is where I had my bad runs. 0-70...I *bleep* you not is what I think it was. Balhae I'm convinced is broken. Europa I did very well in the Glade.
-
Hmm... using momentum in 2d. And nope, I'm not on Balhae. I have got the animated rock drop, but nothing since I started using momentum strike. But I don't want to give up just in case Twalo drops the statue the easy way. Probably try it a dozen or so more times before I try something else. So easy to momentum the grizzlies. Gotta take off bear slayer talisman though or it rocks the bears too fast.
-
So I'm doing the spawn today... about the 80th time... and someone that's taming cu's stopped taming, and decided to watch me finish the last 2 lvl's. They didn't even kill a wisp! Nor did he heal me, or attempt to help with spawn AT ALL! When Twalo dies, he asks... "Why did something pop in my pack?" and " I never got a drop before" Sure enough... Dreadhorn statue. Guess all you have to do is be there to get a drop. >:( *so pissed*
-
That blows :( They didn't heal you at all, even when champ was up?
-
After 5 months of trying ths spawn, I have to report my success. The Dread Horn Statue is MINE! weeee! It sounds so cool too when locked down. muhahaha. Oh btw... The momentum strike technique gives you drops. :-X
-
Congrats.........
One question i have fighting the centaurs.......how do you get them to engage you for a multiple whirlwind?
Every time i do this, they rin from me shooting arrows.......so i cant whirl wind multiple centaurs.....
T
-
With the EC Client (Pinco UI FTW) you can use the scroll wheel and set it to to attack nearest and farthest. All you have to do is move the scroll wheel and you can get them all to swarm you. That's what I've always done when spawning...it's as easy as pie. ;)
I think many people thought I was using some script or illegal tactic when getting all the centaurs to attack me.
You just have to be careful of Cu Sidhes and Satyrs nearby which are of neutral alignment. I would always lure them up to the desert during Tier 2.
You have to watch out for the Dryads as well they don't walk into your Whirlwinds.
Let us know how it goes!
Get that coveted Dreadhorn Statuette!
Belated Congratulations seeriusly! There's some work involved to get that statuette! Nicely done! 8)
-
ah....I play on the original 2d client....so everytime I attack a centaur, they run from me and shoot arrows....lol.
-
You can set up a 2D macro to do the same thing.
Select nearest mobile
Attack selected
-
If you use UOAssist, you can also set the macro to your mouse wheel. Very helpful tool for spawns.
-
The original post is fantastic and took a "I will never solo that one" to "this just might happen".
I thought I would share a few things that I have found over the last couple days.
Important Weapons -
Swords - Defiler of Virtue - Fey Slayer Katana (Double Strike/Armor Ignor) (25% ssi, 50% hit lightning, 30% hit Lower Defence, Stam Regen 2, FC 1, DI 60%), works wonders on the Satyrs and Centaurs. Now this weapon doesn't have any leaches so I carry a Shield with 30% Soul Charge, and am anal about the honor(not so much on 2nd level but definitely 3rd because you get that little mana bump), divine fury for stamina...along with EOO. These swords are out there for sale...running between 3-4 mil.
Archers - Ironwood Composite Bow - Few Slayer(Medusa Drop) (moving shot/Armor Ignor)- Solo can move through level 1 quick, Level 2 is a grind(takes me 9min 30s to hit enough Centaurs) so there is not alot of down time. 2 Archers might have a better time. I could not kill enough Satyrs to solo this spawn with 1 char. On a side note this bow rocks the first 3 levels of the Forest Lord spawn, because of the ridges( the monsters spawn on) and impassable trees to get to them. Centaurs are leve 3 here. Haven't tried a solo there yet (last was with 2 other people(no raid yeeaaa), but will work that once I get the Dreadhorn. Any Sampire worth his salt can kill Medusa in 45-40 min, and the bow is a fairly common drop, and there is also that possibility of the Slither Drop.
Level 1 - Works perfectly as original post
Level 2 - It seems they changed to AI of archers to run and shoot instead of swarm. Mouse wheel and chasing them down you can kill them in 1(with Armor ignor) or 2 hits. I vary, managing my mana since the weapon doesn't have any leeches. I run about a 6min per red candle. Use you time here and at about 5min with 4 whites, take out a couple Paragon Centaurs(with Honor) and get your mana up.
Level 3-Still have trouble here killing enough but the Defiler of Virtue certainly helped - Honor, Lightning Strike, Double Strike, Lightning Strike, Lightning Strike - Or if you miss then another double strike(honor is key here for mana)...don't us armor ignor because you get more points with double strike. I noticed that the initial reds I was running about 9min 45secs, but the 3rd candle of this level took me around 6mins...Not sure if there is anything to it though.
Level 4 - Works perfectly as original post
Twalo - Kicked my Sampire ass, so I went and got my bard and used Discord/Rising Collosses -
I recommend timing yourselves, if you are at 5min with 1 white at level 3...stop....use the next 5min to kill 2 paragon Satyrs and refresh your drink.
Note 1: The new legendary drops in Cov go a great distance...Hit level 4 and you can really deck yourself out in some serious mana Increase/Intelligence Bonus/Mana Regen...Pay particular note to your Phy resist(Satyr damage), Cold/Energy Resist-For the unfortunate strike from Cus. Just make sure u kill all the Centaurs...thay are looters, and they seem to like Legendary Artifact cursed items.
Note 2: Archers, this is a perfect spawn for collecting arrows...Blow through the first level, and kill centaurs and collect 75-80 per centaur with 2 hits from the Ironwood Composite Bow...you will be sitting at 10,000 in no time.
Well I hope I have provided something useful here....
-
Best of luck! As with most things in life it gets easier the more times you do it.
The double axe really makes it easy because it's a hard hitter. I've tested all the Fey Slayer Weapons (Wind Of Corruption, Defiler of Virtue, Ironwood CompositeBow) in the Weald but they didn't perform as well as 100% Fire Weapons.
Those wood dwelling furry creatures do not like fire! ???
-
The centaurs seem to act different these days. They won't come towards you anymore. Making the second level a bit more tedious.
-
Yea...that is what prompted my response when I saw pics showing dead centaurs with whirlwind attack...They continue to run away from me and I end up having to hunt them down one at a time lol
-
Are you guys sure about the Centaurs!?
Don't make me log in with my sampire! (I haven't logged in with one for 9 months)!
When I do T-Maps with my Thrower Grubber still responds to repeated attacks.
If they start running off re-target them and they come back! No!?
Still works on Grubber so don't see why it would be different for Centuars.
-
I went to run the twisted again tonite....and confirmed that even with clicking/tagging the centaurs multiple times, they still run from you.
Makes for a long 2nd tier fight with the centaurs...I have resorted to using the ironwood bow with armor ignore and enemy of one. I can drop them in 1-2 hits per and it takes the sting out of the grind some.
But the last 2 times I have ran this, I have not gotten past the satyrs.....I keep getting all paragon satyrs before I can finish the tier.
It takes a while to pull off and take another character with 120 music and 120 provo to get dogs on the paragon satyrs to kill some off to get normals to spawn.....I fail alot using exceptional instruments (not aware of any slayer or super slayers to increase my chances).
My last two attempts have failed lol after I gave up at 3 hours and 2 1/2 hours lol.
If anyone has any further input on this let me know.
Aside from that....I have completed prolly close to 8 or so spawns and managed one drop (the bardiche - quell I believe it was called).
-
Heh! Kane your post reminds me of my frustrations I've had. Trust me I've been there. I've had to leave the Weald with my tail tucked between my legs many times.
Centaurs you need Cold Weapon. I use a 100% Cold weapon with 50% Hit Cold Area. Just make sure the Dryads, Satyr, and Cu Sidhes are no where near you when using Hit Area. I'm tellin' you guys Fey is not the way to go. I wish it was but it's not optimal. 100% Fire Composite I'm willing to bet would deal out more damage than the Ironwood. Easy to craft with runics since the changes.
Usually when Tier 3 starts I'll kill off the remaining Centaur and then advance the spawn with Valor. This will renew the timer to 10 mins. So I never stress when the Satyrs first spawn...I take a minute or so and make sure everything is cleared out and to my liking. Sometimes I'll even kill the Dryads.
If you get all Paragons Satyrs lure one to the gate and hit and run back out the exit. This is why the double axe is such great weapon with it's double strike. Tier 3 is also when I change armor to maximize Mana Increase (Helm of Insight, Int Ring and Bracelet etc).
What shard are you doing this on? (PM me and I'll come watch)
Don't give up. Get the 100% Fire Double Axe and a Mana suit for Tier 3. I think I have around 100 Mana when I switch suits. Makes double striking over and over a breeze. Cut through them Satyr's like a hot knife through butter. 8)
-
satyrs has it's downs, but I hardly ever end up in too bad of shape. Once I get all paragons, I just kill off 2 of them and am usually good to go. They are disco'd of course, and I just hit them a few times then bounce out of gate then rinse repeat. Regular satyrs though only 2 to 3 hits with fey slayer katana... honor before, and you're golden. Counter strike always on for that bonus every now and then, double strike and lightning strike finishes them off pretty easily.
-
Thanks for the additional input and insight.
I ran another one earlier today and started working on the pop in and out with the paragon satyr.
I did find using the ironwood takes 1-2 hits to kill the centaurs. I armor ignore and honor and get one hit kills followed by a 2 hit kill not using the armor ignore. I have started running the archer on the first and second tiers now and get on my samphire once I hit tier 3 with the satyr.
It's a work in progress for me.....
I am also taking Ultima's idea on the suit for my samphire with the added mana and see how it works for me.
I should also park a disco char for the paragon satyrs also...good idea...
I will update as I continue to go thru my learning and building of tactics....and will share anything new I stumble into.
I expect to do this for quite a while to get that statue....
:)
-
It would be handy to have a script running for that second disco account that just randomly disco's stuff on the screen. I've often thought about attmepting to write such a item but never have done so....just a thought.
-
Couple other scripts exist that can easily be modified. Ask Ultima.
-
I started a champ spawn this morning.......but after the satyr popped, I started killing some and forgot to use my valor to advance the spawn......when I realized and tried it, it gave me the message that the champ spawn has already been advanced.
I think I shorted myself alot of time to complete....as I have now 3 times worked up the spawn to the satyr and got paragons.....and using the tactics provided (thanks Seriously and Ultima), I managed to kill a few paragon satyr to get my normal ones to start to pop again....
The problem is that due to my missing the valor at tier 3, I am shorted time and cannot get the satyr killed fast enough.
I expect this will be the case until either the spawn can be finished to start a new one....or tomorrow morning after server up.
Is this correct?
-
I've had this happen a few times. I'm not sure why this occurs...
It's almost as if someone was in there before you and bumped the spawn but I doubt this is the case.
It just makes for a little more work but it's still doable even without bumping Tier 3. The spawn is on by default so there is never a need to bump it in the beginning.
You can do it! 100% Fire Double Axe with High Mana Leech. Double Strike FTW! 8)
-
Couple other scripts exist that can easily be modified. Ask Ultima.
I used to run scripts in there but stopped when I got a good double axe 100% Fire Double Axe. I would set up C2's discorder (the trainer) and set the ID of the monster depending on the tier. Disco all Satyrs, Centaurs or Bears.
-
Another failure here....I keep filling up with Para Satyr's... >:(
I believe the developers are watching me and as soon as I get to 4 white candles the fill me up with golden bastards and laugh.
Tried to clear out a couple and move on and had a "Let me outta here moment...resulting in death"
Candle regression....depression.....angry logout.....
Will try again Sat....
-
Did it....2hrs and here is what I changed.
Shifted to EC, with the macro war/honor/wait for target/target selected/lightening strike/attack selected.... set to the "1" key (can't use select nearest enemy or mobile in the macro because it would sometimes get a paragon...so I went to manual targeting)
then i would use mouse wheel to select target, run close hit 1, lightning strike/lightning strike/double strike
with the honor always going, didn't need to even shift my suit to a high mana regen...the constant honor kept me full. (This was using the defiler of virtue)
Additionally, I used a second account with a discord script discording Centaurs/Satyrs/and Grizzlies.
The key I believe...and I cannot prove it...is that I do not believe all the levels require the same kills...I time each level..and the first level of Satyrs took eight minutes, next was 6mins, next was 5....so it seems to me that the higher levels require lower kills. What this means, is the first level of Satyrs, put the timer on....kill off as many paragons as you can(setting up the nxt levels), then before ten minutes...advance the spawn. I could never get past that 1st level of Satyrs and the discorder helped a little, but I don't think it pushed me over the edge. Where the discorder was invaluable, was filling up with paragon satyrs, I was able to kill a couple that were discorded without having the spawn regress due to running out of time.
After that, it was a discorded Twalo vs a Rising Collusses and a Paragon Grizzly....
No Drop, but victory none the less.
My thanks goes out to Ultima for this thread *Applauds*
-
The key I believe...and I cannot prove it...is that I do not believe all the levels require the same kills...
This is correct each higher candle on each Tier requires less spawn to be killed than the previous canlde which is why bumping at Tier 3 makes a big difference on the Glade Spawn.
Glad to hear on your successes.
EC is much easier. I really don't understand folks who use that bleepity beep CC client. That client is good for scripting nothing else. Godawful client! :-[
I think the Glade Spawn is the funnest spawn in all of UO but am very biased about the Weald which I hold near and dear to my heart. One because of all the fuzzy/furry wood dwelling creatures that inhabit the area, it's birthplace of Blaze, and my Arch Nemesis Dreadhorn resides there (who thinks himself master of the Weald).
Keep at it until you get Dreadhorn!
Then all who get the coveted Dreadhorn Statuette need to do the Bedlam Spawn. Check out the Solo Bedlam on a Sampire walkthrough for another insane challenge! 8)
-
What about also setting up a third toon to auto-cast RC, then hide? Seems like that might take some of the heat off your main character.
Disco Bot
Mystic Bot
Manual Sampire with a really scary fire weapon
Hmm...
Ultima? What say you?
-
When it comes to dealing with Twaulo I always used either momentum strike or had Twaulo attack a Paragon Cu Sidhe. Paragon Cu Sidhe whoops his buttox fast and most of the other creatures are scared to attack the Paragon Cu Sidhe.
No one listens about the Fire Weapons.... ::)
What's that saying? "You can lead a horse to water...."
Double Strike with 100% Double Axe > Fey Slayer with Armor Ignore/Double Strike. With Armor Ignore it doesn't matter what elemental your using.
*Edit: I just tested the Fey Slayer on Satyr and it's a hair better than the 100% Fire double axe. The day the Defilers of Virtue were dropping I took them in an tested them extensively in the weald and they were pretty much worthless. Something appears to have change from that day and today. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. My first tests the Defilier and Ironwood did very little damage now it's dealing out hits of 70+ which is about the same as the axe.
-
Well, hot damn. I have about a dozen Defilers (thanks to the advice of a certain Ultima on template creation for that event).
I still think RCs would help with the paragons, though. Maybe I'll take another shot at the Weald once I tire of UOPokemon.

Anyone here Have a single account Siege Template for this or the other Champ with the shadow wisps? I feel as if I can-not do this champ solo on Siege with the fear in having all my things ganked if I'm PK'ed or die and start getting looted by the mobs. <---- super sucks. As PK'ers sometimes sell or give back gear. depending on who it is. IF you have ever or currently play Siege and have advice to offer for this champ or the other one I'd appreciete it.

Never have done it,

Ultima,
Have you gotten any of the other drops that UOGuide has for Twalo....
Animated rocks or the Pier??
-
-
Believe those centaurs are much weaker than the ones in the glade.
-
If you find a minute, you should shoot some photos of the rocks, pier to uoguide....they seem to be lacking at Twalo....
;)

Just did the Glade Spawn on Atlantic on my Treasure Hunter who was carrying 100 Mining and 100 Lockpicking. One guy came in when the Bears were up and helped get Twaulo but once your past the Satyr it's all down hill. Wind of Corruption Cyclone killed Satyr in 4 hits...never got Pied Pipered by any of the Satyr and had to exit the weald. Bears were difficult on the Thrower and slowed me down.
I can see Hybrid Gargoyle Thrower/Swordsman template doing well in the Glade. That might be next on the to do list. Cyclone also did good damage on Twaulo.
@Nobama....Centuar is a centuar is a Centaur. All went down in the Glade in two hits same as Oaks Spawn...no difference.
I'll leave the pics of the rocks and pier to you swroberts! ;)
No drop from Twaulo on Atlantic for me, I didn't stick around to ask the other guy.
-
Gotta get a drop first..... :'(

Maintain your fortitude and the elusive statuette will be yours! You too will have a "precious"! ;)

Just to confirm...now that I have been skunked 10 times in a row...
I am switching out my Sampire for a Mystic/Bard...Discord/Provokr/Rising Colossus...
Missing the buildup to the Champion has no affect to the frop rate...Does it?
My paranoia is screaming :o

I would always get paranoid myself about pulling characters or changing out chars but I've still received drops that way.
I believe anyone who damages the boss or worked the spawn has a chance to get the drop, with the person who did the most damage to the spawn having the highest chance.
Are you using the Defiler of Virtue on the sampire? Wind of Corruptions and Defiler both dropped the Satyr in 4 hits (Katana doing double strike).
If you were on Atlantic, Europa, Balhae, or Sonoma I'd come give you a hand. ;)
It's easier than ever! :o
-
30% drop my ass...
Whats the record...i'm at 0 for 22....I have to be challenging someone here :-\

I believe I own the record for Balhae I went 0-80 or in that range. What kept me doing them on Balhae was not believing that the drop rate was that bad. It was my way of telling the RNG to go bleep itself...sadly the RNG won! I'm convinced Balhae is broken. Europa was the best to me and I think my rate was around 40%.
What shard are you doing them on? I know it shouldn't matter but if your doing them on Balhae I would abandon ship.
But as far as the record goes...I got you beat by a longshot. Once you get 0-50 you'll get my sympathy.
-
Catskills...
And I have not had this kinda of poor luck on any other spawn...
-
Stay the course!
I know the feeling all too well! When you get runs that are that long and dry you want to break things! >:(
Weather the storm.
At least you can flaunt your nice title "Eradicator of the Glade" though I prefer the "Enforcer of the Glade" title better even though it's the lesser title.
If I had characters on Catskills I'd log on to give you a hand.
-
Reminds me of my bad luck in the abyss. Where was that thread where I was keeping track? I think I was 0 for 100+...
-
I take that challenge..i shall beat your 100 score by 10 :P
-
Then you'll need 113 :p
Here is the thread. Man, I can't believe that was almost two years ago!

Those are cakewalks compared to the Weald! You can't compare Mini-Champs to has historically been one of the hardest Spawns to Solo. With the introction of Fey Slayer it's now much easier so I give Bedlam the #1 ranking.
You can knock out Mini Champs spawns in no time.
You can probably do 3-5 Mini Champs in the time it takes to solo the Glade Spawn.
So you had an 0-30 run in my book. Divide Mini-Champ number by 4.
Don't be bringing your measly Mini-Champ spawn runs into the Great Glade Spawn Thread.
-
Man, you'll do anything to keep your favorite thread alive! :P
(As an aside, I really do need to bring my toons down to spawn a Blaze...maybe next year)
-
I'm of the belief spawning Blaze(s) can be done if you have a group of people monitoring the spawn and working the spawn on a secluded shard. Blaze is 1 in 21,0000 chance which has been confirmed by the Dev Team.
You want disco Archers or Throwers parked in the ring to the east with Fire Weapons (yes Fire not Fey 100% on this). Fey slayer weapons are really most effective on the Satyr and Centaurs. 100% Fire is going to outperform Fey Slayer against Cu Sidhes which lowest Resist is fire. Throwers are probably the better way to go so you don't have to deal with ammunition. You need to have other characters (casters (invis/hiders) aggro the Cu Sidhes and bring them over to the other side where they can be attacked and discorded without danger.
Throwers can't move because of Paragon Cu Sidhes will attack on sight once the Thrower becomes Dread Lord (which won't take long). As long as the Thrower doesn't move Paragon Cu Sidhe won't attack even if Dread Lord status but one step where the Cu Sidhe can see you and your prey. Prior to any Cu Sidhe killing Dryads need to be lured to the entrance and changelings need to be cleared of the area.
I did this with 4 accounts and the turn over rate was ridiculous. You can kill 50-100 very fast. Maybe 50 an hour that's my estimation but I'd have to re-test could be more or less. It's still a huge commitment time wise but it can be done by those that are serious and above is the recipe for success.
Let's say I'm right at 50 Cue Sidhes an hour (21000/50) that's 420 hours of intense Cu Spawn Turn over.
One person did it over a year a few years back using a much slower method I'd imagine. I think it might even have been Petra Fyde at Stratics claiming to spawn 3-5 Blazes over the course of a year. "Blaze Cu Magnet" she gave herself the title of.
You'd need a group to patrol the spawn if your going to do that kind of work. You'll work the spawn and kill 15000 and goto sleep. Then some guy will walk into the weald and Blaze will spawn. That's why you need a group of people cohesively monitoring the spawn making sure no one else is turning over the spawn.
On a side note I would also get Knight Of Honor. If Blaze spawned I would invoke honor, attack it and lure it to the swamps to be tamed. You don't want someone walking in the Weald trying to tame it after you've done all the work. Once in the Swamps I would lure it near the Dread Horn Entrance Alter and then clear the area of any monsters (probably bring in my sampire to clear the area). Then proceed to tame. Once tame I would use the Help Command to get out. Edit: Just re-honor and run out. If you were a Knight of Honor you should have more then plenty of time to run back out the entire desert.
The more secluded the shard the better your chances.
Now if I didn't already have 1 Blaze Cu I would have done this and gone for it. I may take another stab at it later but like I said it really needs to be done with a group to spread out the monitoring of the spawn.
I was just lucky as hell that one day I walked into the Weald on Balhae and there wasn't a soul in sight except for me and a Blaze. Had that been another shard (more populated) it never would have happened.
-
Aww, and you didn't post the pic of your Blaze. :(
-
I posted a screenshot when I first got him in the BLAZE!!!! (http://www.scriptuo.com/index.php?topic=1695.0;highlight=blazehttp://www.scriptuo.com/index.php?topic=1695.0;highlight=blaze) thread. A good ole' KR pic!
I still want another one! :o
There really should be a system that Toptwo suggested where you tame regular cues and donate them whereby you would eventually get a Blaze.

:o :o :o :o VICTORY VICTORY VICTORY :o :o :o :o
As of 5 minutes ago, the ultimate prize is mine....
Interesting enough, after my 0-30 whinefest post, I submitted a similir post as a bug report to Origin, adding the additional fact that the gold drop was averaging about 160k....I then took a week off...today, it was about 280k and the precious was in my pack....Yippee ki-yay, mother*****
Couldn't have done ot without your guidance Ultima, you have my thanks... :-*
I am attempting to post a picture, but can not seem to get it to upload...I'll give it 1 more shot...
-
Congratulations!
"Heaven helps those who help themselves"! Good to see your fortitude paid off. :)
Dreadhorn Statuette is still my most valued drop I've ever received.
What's the EasyUO Window you have on your screen? Did you write your own script to help work the Glade?
Interesting note on the amount of gold to drop. If I remember Balhae gold drops were sometimes very low.
I think something was amiss and it was wise of you to have submitted the bug. You probably did everyone else who works that spawn in the future a giant favor.
-
That's my little discord/WOD character I haul around with me. Usually stays hidden until the main boss then discords and can WOD at the end. I control him from that panel. Came about on my quest for a slither...cut my fight time down to about 25min....when doing 5 a day for 5 months, a discorder really pays off. Additionally it helps on the felluca spawns. I expanded his responsibilities for this spawn, since it is neutral. He just stands there and discords all spawn long...Pays huge dividends when I get a full load of Paragon Satyrs...
-
Congratulations!
I don't suppose you'd care to point us to where you downloaded that little disco/WOD tool? Or is that your own creation?
-
Nice score on that dread horn, never seen one before this thread.
-
The discord thingy is my own creation...own being relative since I cobbled together most of the code pirated from honest hard working scripters. It is extremely inefficient...embarrasses me professionally due to lack of modularization and description, and has lines that I can't remember why I have them...but leave in because the thing works. I am not sure of the rules for this forum...can I attach it here?
-
Probably not in this thread, but you could start your own thread. Be sure to include the caveat about having cobbled it together from others, and ask the mods to remove it if they object.
Generally, we do not permit direct reposting of someone else's code, but from what you said it looks like you smooshed multiples together to make your own product with its own GUI. That ought to be ok.
-
very nice indeed! way to get detailed lol
-
Still on my long road to statuism lol.......
Does anyone have any suggestion on a script that would either disco everything with a 2nd account or maybe help auto kill on the 2nd account?
Getting flustered with the centaur and Satyr spawn with my samphire.....lol.
Almost takes me 2 hours to do.....IF I do not get stuck on paragon satyrs.
lol

Just to help make this a perfect thread....we need to include...Trucks...Mama...Prison...and getting drunk...or how to make a 100% Fire Double Axe
Firstly you need a Blacksmith/Imbuer...the closer to 120 on each the better.
Option 1(Cheapest):
1. Dull Copper Runic Hammers(reforges 60% fire Weapons) ~30,000GP each or bribe BOD's...check out Tower of Roses BOD Rewards
(I would be safe to say at least 10 hammers)
2. Iron ingots/Bronze ingots maybe 5k eack
2. Use your blacksmith/Imbuer to craft 30 Double Axes (use regular Iron and standard tongs)
3. Reforge each one...selecting Grand Artifice and Inspired Artifice (select the Exquiste/ of quality name)
4. When you get a 60% Fire/40 Physical...Enhance with bronze to get 100% fire (You will fail enhancing 2 out 3 times so don't worry...if you have a +60 blacksmithy hammer, equip it and you will succeed 9 out of 10 times, or buy the guarantted enancement tool, which is 100% guarantee)
Salvage all useless axes(make sure you have mining on to get max ingots back) and repeat...you sometimes get a 50% fire with a single mod...stay at it and you will get several good 60% fire options
Option 2:
1. Copper Runic Hammers(to reforge 100% fire weapons) 80,000-250,000gps each or bribe BOD's...check out Tower of Roses BOD Rewards
(I would be safe to say at least 10 hammers)
2. Iron ingots...5k again
2. Use your blacksmith to craft 30 Double Axes (use regular Iron and standard tongs)
3. Reforge each one...selecting Grand Artifice and Inspired Artifice (select the Exquiste/ of quality name)
4. When you get a 100% Fire...you are all done.
Salvage all useless axes(make sure you have mining on to get max ingots back) and repeat...you should see a bunch of 100% weapons...
Once you have your 100% axe, imbue it up to your preferences...don't forget to powder of fortification is first though.
Good Luck, I hope I helped.

Odd.....I ran the last week a few times.....seems like now the boss attacks you after a few minutes of using momentum strike on him. That didn't happen before.....if this is a permanent change, I will.have to hang up the shoes on this spawn....as it adds alot more time to kill the boss without using just momentum strike. Anyone else run into this issue lately or confirm this is an official change?
-
Yes I heard that the IA on the spawn have increase. The report are the same as your finding, momentum strike make the boss to attack you. Not sure why this is a problem, you are attacking the boss anyway, wonder what I'm missing here?
-
The problem was that before...you could momentum strike the boss without a direct attack on him....damaged him and kill him without his agroing on you....now you get the Satyr treatment cuz he recognizes and attackes when you momentum strike him....so new game plan required to kill the boss.
