Lost and Found spawn rates
The spots where they are located is randomly selected when the map instance is created, in the same way that gatherable nodes are. Generally, this only happens when a new build is available.
Once the spot is found, everyone can freely loot it. It doesn’t change position. If you’re sitting there, waiting for it to spawn, you’ll be waiting for quite a while.
…your in the wrong place then. You don’t camp these. Once you find them anyone can click them. They don’t des pawn. Only thing is they are in different places on different servers. They also move with each server reset (and given there have been a few recently because of the patch, this is likely why they aren’t where you are standing).
If you are following a guide, don’t expect it to be where they have it, as they may be on a different server. My suggestion is just to shout in the zones where they are and hopefully someone will let you know.
That’s not true at all. On Yak’s Bend the goblet is despawning and changing location every time someone picks it up. There were multiple guilds with people camping the various spawn locations trying to find it.
If this is true then something has changed since the patch dropped. On my server once someone found it, he sat on it with his commander tag (so that we could find him on the map) and hundreds of us just picked it up all at the same spot. This was true for both the goblet and the soldier.
Nevermind, you were right after all. Apperently we’ve just got a bunch of jokers on the server who like to give out false directions.
Dumbest achievement ever!
Spent 2 hours already looking everywhere and no one on /map will tell you where its at or will troll you so you waste silver to teleport to said area.
Epic Fail Guild Wars 2, epic fail!
Really i’ve always found people on Desolation to be really helpful with this and other stuff. Which server are you on?
