Yup, Blizz thought making sharding more aggressive while making rares despawn was “fun.”

Everyone. All the time. Everywhere. Good luck getting any event done if you’re not in a raid group. And even then, you can still get sharded.
I want Old Republic style layering.

Actually, what Blizzard really did.
Which was a dumb move, just nerfing the HP would have been a smarter idea.

That’s not the phasing issue the OP is talking about, though. But yes, that’s also a dumb move that they did.

I hope you weren’t waiting today because Karokta can’t spawn today
Ah yes, the rare rotation on top of despawning on top of bad sharding on top of low drop rates on top of damage sponge health pools.

Just got sharded away right now as he was about to spawn when I tried to create a group. Had been flying around the cavern for 45 mins waiting for him. This has happened several times. I need to stop making groups I guess.
Oh, I absolutely agree. I just hope OP didn’t waste his time more than going to ZC already does
Bad news! He was not about to spawn because today is karokta’s day off
No, yesterday was his day off. Today is his first day back in the rotation. But thank you.
oh i used Karokta as an example, i was waiting for others rares i still need pets / manuscripts from
How does one know if a ZC rare is on their day off or not? On the SL info, wowhead shows “Notable Zereth Mortis Rares” but I don’t see anything on the DF info for ZC.
Events are locked out the same time the rares in the same quadrant are locked out. If you see at least 1 event up in a non-elite zone, it either means:
-
the rares in that zone will spawn that day or
-
Nobody cleared it from yesterday.
I think WQ’s are a better indicator of what is going to spawn.
That’s just to prolong grinds and keep people subbed longer. There is no other intent. Every change they’ve been making to systems is to make grinds longer, full stop.

This actually did work on some level. When only 1 rare is up, people in the zone will go to it and kill it. When 10 rares were up, no one knew were to go and no one showed up to kill anything. I mean it was not the best solution but it was a marginal improvement.
And alas, just like I said it would happen… The feedback the PLAYERS of this game provided was swept under the rug. Don’t expect any changes, come back next expac to be able to solo this dead zone.

Ok, so once you get to the rare it despawns after you arrived and want to put a group together.
So, wait another whatever hours it takes to respawn just to play the drop lottery as soon as anyone is not going to be doing any kind of DF while playing TWW. Dragon parts are not supposed to be rare to begin with.
People move on and don’t bother on hope it drops or hope it’s their concepts. ZC is over and done with people will move on to the next new zone.
People don’t stay sub to play the waiting game lol!
I wouldn’t mind you explaining after the many threads about the subject has been negative and has gotten negative feedback by CCM’s.
Depends on the zone attendance of each server which most of them are low and very few, got 15 minutes to find people if no one come or the rare goes poof.
This is still the case for people who don’t use a rare add on, text in chat for rare pop ups don’t help those without.
Not really, 15 minutes to put a group together if no one is around or the rare goes poof. It’s less time depending on when you come into the zone and how long the rare has been up.
