Sharskin Gloves Encounter !

[Babazoo]

Has Anyone done this encounter since Friday ??

Just after any info on this please before i give up

 

[Gear]

I did it when TOA first came out, so wasn't a popular item nor were there lot's of people after it. However trying to help someone lately, we discovered that respawn time sucks.

Prefered way to get it is to /use2 on some to get the proc, and have a healer or any kind. Will work just fine.

Another way to do it is to do a quest that gives you a 10 charge potion which grants 200% underwater speed. Use it wisely and it should work out.

its getting the st00pid thing to spawn im having problems with !

im sure it must be bugged ... having camped it for a unhealthy amount of time.

I have helped 2 ppl with this before and now i need it myself this happens , flippin typical

 

[Gorel-Truesight]

Am afraid its just on of those encounters with a sucky respawn timer on it

The Eyes and ears boards always have questions from all 3 realms to check if it bugged and it checks out as working..

Will ask the question again and find out whenit last popped

- The Heavy Strongbox used in the Mariasha's Sharkskin Gloves encounter may no longer by destroyed. This should fix an issue that could prevent the encounter from properly resetting.[/font]

Hundreds of new Scouts and a very long respawn time means you have to be lucky to find it up these days.

Might be nice to stay on topic.. Seeing the same thread in midgard section, and still noone here that says it popped this past week on Alb.
Seems its bugged to me tbh.

No GM that can check a log and see if when it popped last?

Greetings,
Thank you for the query.
The hotfix you mention is not yet live on European servers as it requires version 1.70. However the Mariashas Sharkskin Gloves encounter is a very rare spawn. There is no issue preventing the spawn of this encounter on any English server as I write this.

Yours sincerely,

Marishas gloves do indeed spawn.. they are just a very very rare spawn. The game will poll every 30 hours to see if the encounter is active if it isn't active there is a 20% chance that the game will spawn the encounter if it doesn't it waits another 30 hours to check etc. On average they will spawn every 5 to 8 days.

They really should make their minds up , cos i was told by them the game checks every FEW hours or so if enc is up , and if not it has a chance to spawn.

This one is a very rare spawn tho apparently (no kiddin !!)

Think id believe the version they gave you tbh m8

We know it's frustrating however since the artifacts are on completely random timers it is a case of getting lucky with a spawn.
Basicly the game polls every few hours to see if an encounter is active... if it isn't then there is a percentage chance that the encounter will spawn... if it gets stuck in a bad run of probability it can take quite a while for an encounter to spawn.

Good luck!

When the artifacts were designed they were intended to be very rare. More of a compliment to things than a necessity, which is why the spawntimes were deliberately designed to be erratic. There are encounters which spawn much less frequently than others and this is one of them.

on a side note : if anyone sees this encounter up and informs me intime to get credit at least i will give them 5p for the trouble.

 

[Zenythe]

Basicly in a nutshell... it's easier for us to say every few hours as each of the encounters are different... some a few hours some a few days. It varies arti to arti.
