Tip - [Unity] a very burly gnoll

[PGrimes]

Unconfirmed.

I have never seen a very burly gnoll spawn when killing Commander Krolix at any point before the other two commanders.

 

[Sum1]

? This post is very cryptic.

You only have to kill two of the commanders, if you kill the first two commanders in your task window.

If you kill the third commander on your task window, you still need to kill the other two to get the named or the named PH'er to spawn.

Bottom line: Named or named PH spawns upon the death of the first two commanders in your task window.

Confirmed .. by me.

When I kill the 3rd before killing the first two, the named never spawns, just the burly gnoll (no very.)

Again, may be coincidence, that the named did not spawn in 15 attempts not following the proper order.

What Sum is saying is most people doing it for the aug never kill the 3rd commander. zone in, /tar command will get you gartik. kill him, /tar xata gets you second.. then named or PH spawns..

It's a coincidence. People are going 20+ instance flips with no namer just killing 2 of the commanders.

I killed the first two 4 times with no Very Burly Spawn, then the following two times I tried I got the named with one of each Aug.

I've gotten 8 augs so far. My average is 1 in 8. I drop task after the ph spawn if there's no named. If named pops I kill it then drop task. I've also been farming extruded black pearl and ff chase loot and cleansing rods so...
Been busy

I had stretches of 20 with nothing and stretches of 3 out of 4, it's just random. And I ended up with 5 of each aug, so I've heard people say one is more common than the other, which isn't my experience either.

Guys...you probably already know this but these can be speed farmed. Kill Gartik First, then xataka...if no joy. Set your campfire by Guard, gate out to campfire, drop and reset. If you do them in that order you can cycle through this mission over and over in about 5-10 minutes per try. Hope that helps.

Invis and use /nav spawn Gartik, and /nav spawn Xataka commands to quickly nav to targets

 

[Farmer217]

My fastest run is 3 minutes 11 seconds from clicking "ready" to dropping task when PH spawned

Noob question, i got the clicky feather on my whole team. Anyone figure out yet how to program a condition to check for this and if not present and available fire it off for KA? Also....

DPS11=Unified Phoenix Feather|99|Cond11
Cond11=!${Me.Song[Grace of Unity].ID}

Click the item and see whether the buff turns up in Song window or buff window. Look at the name of it. Put the full name in the condition or unique beginning partial. Check the duration of the buff (something like 20secs), and check the CoolDown on the feather so you can expect how long it will be up for and frequently you’ll cast it. Job Done

Awesome, will try it tomorrow. I appreciate it.

Any idea how this could be incorporated using CTWN Combat Assist plugins?

I just did /cler addclicky offensive while holding item

mq2react is probably the better choice, since you can add a condition. CWTN can use the /addclicky command, but it won't accept a condition, it will use it as soon as it's available.

 

[sidanger]

Also worth noting that it's not on the same timer as the Minature Horn of Unity so it's possible to have either one up for every 6 minutes out of 10 in a full group.

 

[sidanger]

Thank you both, I will give mq2react a try as I would like to add the condition and have either that or Minature Horn of Unity up as often as possible.

 

[sidanger]

This kinda works for the Feather using mq2reacts, seems to be some kind of issue with the Miniature Horn of Unity (perhaps stacking):
[CODE lang="yaml" title="Unified Phoenix Feather"] UseGraceOfUnity:
action: /useitem Unified Phoenix Feather
condition: >-
!${Me.Casting.ID} && ${Me.CombatState.Equal[COMBAT]} && !${Me.Invis}
&& ${FindItemCount[=Unified Phoenix Feather]} && ${Me.ItemReady[Unified
Phoenix Feather]} && !${Me.Song[Grace of Unity].ID} && !${Me.Song[Blessing
of Unity].ID}[/CODE]

 

[Myndbender]

does the named still spawn while killing 2 commanders and cycling?
Done that 30+ times today and no named.

8hrs 5 to 6 times an hour no named...done

 

[DallasAg]

He definitely still spawns if you kill the first two named mobs, Gartik and Xataka. Kill both and see if “a very burly gnoll” is up. If not drop task and get it again. I’d estimate it took roughy 8 kills of those two named mobs for each avbg pop. I got 12 augs over a two day period using this technique. I could usually kill the first two mobs using Bard SoS and /Nav spawn “Gartik” and then “Xataka” in a couple of minutes.

 

[blackmarble]

Unity task is going to have 1 hour request timer after April patch so get stuff for your new toons/alts/whatever now.

 

[Ordell]

I have it down to a science. First, does your HUD show named? I'll add mine, which shows named spawns, for those who don't have one.

Second, this requires a mage.

So I zone into the instance and start KA on all the assist toons. I manually control the tank. On the mage, I hit hotkey one

/alt activate 1210
/pause 5
/target commander gartik
/pause 1
/nav target

Once the mage is there I move her away and COTH the group. Pull Gartik, beat him down, then kill the shaman add. While doing that, I /mqp the mage and hit hotkey 2

/alt activate 1210
/pause 5
/target xata
/pause 1
/nav target

Move the mage away, call the group, restart mage macro, kill Xata. Immediately on his death the very burly gnoll will spawn or won't. All you need to do is look at the HUD. If not, /kickp task and kill the gnoll add that came with Xata. If he is up, I use hotkey 3.

/mqp
/target very
/alt activate 1210
/pause 6
/nav target

And again, move away, restart macro, call group.

You can burn thru missions in under 10 minutes this way.

you should get out of the habit of targeting things and then navigating to them it is *possible* that it is a dbg indicator/issue.

I would suggest just using /nav spawn name like /nav spawn xata instead of targeting stuff across the zone.

 

[Ordell]

Well I farmed both gems for 8 toons so I am done. But thank you for that, and others can heed your advice, of course.

Yikes. This should get more exposure (unless I'm just oblivious). Will be tough to break the habit, but thanks for the heads up!

 

[surfdog21]

So anyways is this augment mission still going? Jeez I figured it was over with already~!

 

[nookiecookie]

Sorry, but the name of the mission reminds me of Charlie Murphy.

No doubt. I do that CONSTANTLY. Like....its how I get around. Do we have any indication of this being an issue or just being cautious? (I def see how it COULD be, I'm just wondering.)
