Guild Wars 2

TTS has been noticing that Tequatl now consistently spawns at the very end of his window, with maybe 1-2 minutes variance. Is this a change from last week Tuesday’s patch that was missed in the Patch Notes?

An official ArenaNet comment would be helpful as the old window meant we had to wait nearly an hour for any attempt.

Thanks!

Hi Marstead,

Event windows are not official released informations. The basic form around DE’s is that they are ment to be random encounters. Off coure. Tequatl as a random encounter is different, the chance on event windows is something that isn’t published in patch notes.

So the only way to find out if the window has been modified is to test it yourself. Best is to note the spawning times, look at the differences, to find the aproximatly times.

You might want to ask the help off one off the event trackers. For them it is easy to build a database, to gather the information needed for a few days.

Looking at Tequatl’s spawn times over the last week, every spawn has been exactly 2 hours after the last one.

Interesting. Does this mean he spawns at predictable times now?

Yes, Tequatl always spawns at x + 2 minutes now. I preferred the random spawnwindows.

A guildie of mine mentioned her observations about this to me last night, and I got in contact with the dev for gw2stuff.com. He already automatically records data for this sort of thing. Based on what he’s sent me so far, the evidence does seem to suggest that Teq is now consistently spawning at the very end of what was previously the window. I’ll be back with more evidence once I hear back from him again.
