Traekoth and Pounders

Wondering if Traek and Pounders count as ''Average" raid mobs..

~On account of the fact that a vast amount of raid content has been added since 2.0, and people are spending all their time raiding the same zone while lots of similar tier content sits untouched, we are changing the "average" raid respawn time from 3 to 6 days (with a random factor + / - up to 2 days).

I figure Adepts should be a 3 day spawn still, especially with Pounder loot apparently never getting retune and still dropping 2 crappy items, and Traekoth never dropping certain items (Like Monk bag)

Having to wait a week~ between attempts at these 2 woudl be ridiculous and encourage even less people to hang around and kill them. :hmph:
 
I concur, but that fact may be biased since I have been sitting at 57 for over a week!

I think adepts are indeed different because they are pick up raids. Guilds do not farm adepts for their loot, as almost all higher end loot is just better than Traek/Pounder loot. I am basically just wanting a shot at the Bard drum, as well as the fact that I just want to attempt both Traek/Pounders before I hit 58.

If they are a week spawn, then I will go ahead and start leveling again!
 
Well, having done Traek the last 12 times hes been up, and leading since Taishar moved on, i can say a increased spawn timer on them is just STUPID We have a fairly steady crew holding at 57 and AAing for these raids, about a core grp that always attends and a few other people usually interested. i personally look forward to having them pop every 3 days to break the cycle of finishing some quest, or farming aa and money.
As it is now (like 10 am EST) Traek is late ( should have popped by 2 am EST, on what woudl be today, Thursday May 24th) and i can only guess that the spawn timer HAS been changed, from what i read on the main page [see: we are changing the "average" raid respawn time from 3 to 6 days (with a random factor + / - up to 2 days)] this means his new spawn timer would be... 4 days ( at best scenario on a 2 day variance) to 8 days ( at worst scenario on a 2 day variance) feel free to correct me if it is coded different or my interpretation of the sentence is wrong. From a 3 day spawn w/ a noted small variance to a possible 4-8 day spawn is killer, thats a loss of half the spawns per month, and for mains holding for traekoth its a real 'Ugh!' moment. IF changing the spawn timer was an oversight, now you know. and if it was meant to be changed i would like to request it be changed back please
 
Yeah, adepts will be knocked back down to 3 days. They were unintentionally changed.
