Second Part of an Iceclad Map
Stormfeather Talons
Been a lot of peeps camping Stormfeather lately, so I thought I'd give them a heads up, in case they happen to check here.
I took down Stormfeather at 1:30PM PST today. Before me, he was last killed at 2:30AM yesterday. I know that because I was there when he was killed previously. So in total he was a 35 hour spawn. Longer than 19 hours, but not enough to constitute a skipped spawn.
So judge your camp times accordingly, and good luck to those who have him next on their hitlist.
BTW: I had help dropping Lodi about 6 hours after Stormfeather went down.

I wanted to add that Midnight is NOT a PH for Stormfeather. I killed him 4 times while waiting for SF, and it wasn't anywhere near the time I killed Midnight when SF popped.
3 of the times I killed Midnight he was a roamer, and once he was a pop at the 3 cougars tree by SF.

Just thought I'd pass on what happened to me when camping Stormfeather on Zebuxorok server.
As a Ranger I had 'normal' setting for tracking on, which allows you to see what is or has spawned first in the zone.
Anyway while camping I noticed Midnight (the black cougar) come up and so for the hell of it decided to kill it. Within about 10 seconds of Midnight being dispatched Stormfeather spawned.
Now this could well be coincidental but it sounds like Midnight is a PH for Stormfeather.
Has anyone else had similar experiences with Midnight.
Time of death for those who care was 2.25pm UK Time (10.25am EST)

I decided to finish up the eyepatch quest for my pal's Ranger, not really knowing what I was getting into. Anyway, I head to Iceclad to camp, then check out the posts on Stormfeather only to see what a horrible ordeal it can be. I decided I didn't owe my friend anything, well not that much..so I log out to get lunch, thinking I'll head out afterwards. After lunch, I log back into iceclad. There is a young bard there xp'ing. He asks, "you gonna kill feather"...I reply " yes if I see him".
Then I turn sightly to my left and there is Stormfeather.
I gave the bard the talons and he couldn't understand why I was so happy, saying "I see him up all the time" ...after being pressed he said he's seen him up five times while soloing in IC from lvl 21 to 23. I have personally taken at least 4 characters to xp in Iceclad for long periods, and have never seen Stormfeather up. Maybe there was a change in his rarity..worth checking out for sure.

Ok heres the deal. Lot's of speculation but this is what i've observed on teh elusive spawn time of stormfeather. Recieved a tell from a gentleman when he was done with the spawn so immedeately me and two friends set up round the clock survey ... i mean we didn't move if it pooped whoever was on watch called the other two. Anyways we killed it three times in a row never leaving (mover yer feet loose yer seat etc etc). and it appears to be a 29 hour spawn time and just like Lodizal it has a variable of plus or minus one hour (so 28-30 hour time). Hypothosised (sp?) after second kill and third kill proves. Sorry not saying which server cause theres a fourth person who need it still in our little group and don't want the competition :). But i'm off for a good nights sleep after mgetting maybe 6 hours total last three striaght days of camping this stupid bird ..... as a side note I'm never setting foot in iceclad again after i'm done with this last spawn
Good added info. I believe you are correct about there being a window as you have found (28-30). However I think it may be more broad then +/- 1 hour. After the first pop I got my map piece and have been comming back for the last 5 pops to check the time, out of curiosity. The second pop was almost exactly 31 hours. Since then it seems to have been shorter and maybe even logger as I have just missed him the last 3 pops. Was hopping to get some photos and plot his trek as I was too excited the first time when I got my kill. I think this info is being kept by many people for the very reason you stated, DON'T WANT THE COMPETITION with there group/guild etc... To bad a game has to be that way, but then again I think some people make a living playing this game. Most people will just have to get lucky and find someone in the zone at the right time that is willing to share info. Just glad I didn't have to spend weeks like some people have posted.

Yes, Tadwenai's post is correct. I have the Timing down, its 31 hours almost to the minute..same loc as mentioned in the other posts(stand by the cougars and stare at the gnomes, he pops right behind them and charges up the hill). Good Luck to all others hope this helped:}

Thanks for the info Hackowell. Just went back 31 hours later, was a little late, and got conformation from Christo that SF was taken down again at 12:15 EST 8/19, right on time. Good luck all, 20% stackable Haste, its well worth the wait!
Killed Stormfeather at 2:20am EST Tuesday morning (August 24th)on Xegony. Just FYI.
Been camping Stormfeather on and off for a couple of days. During this time I traced out the path of the 3 closest mobs that wonder around the 3 gnomes under the tree rolling dice (Not playing cards). Spent my time killing these mobs (on 8 min timers) as well as the 3 static Cougars under the tree just southwest of the gnomes. Got Midnight to spawn serveral times in place of any of these mobs I killed. Logged on today for a few hours and was AFK on a nature call, came back and noticed 2 more peps in front of me by the 3 static cougars. I pulled up track thinking worried that they had found SF while I was gone. What do you know theres Stormfeather just behind us all, following the path just west of the Gnomes. Have read a post stating SF popped right next to the tree where the Gnomes are. There is only one mob whom pops next to the tree and SF was not on that path but one that starts just west of the Gnoms up the hill about half way. Unfortunatly I was AFK when SF peped so can not give location of this pop, although its differant from others I have read here. I can't be sure of what the cause of his spawn was since I was AFK and there were other in the zone. I just took him down at 12 PM game time, 5:45 EST time Tuesday 8/18. Good Luck.
Update:
Just talked to Hackowell, one of the guys that was there when I came back from my call of nature, and turns out he was there for SF as well and was AFK as well. Says that Stormfeather is on the 31 hour spawn so that must be right as he poped not long after Hackowell showeed up. I just got lucky being the first one to get back to the keyboard! Got my last piece of the map...yea! This was the longest part of the 4. Surprisingly the 4th part from Lodizal was easy as he seems to be camped alot and the only thing left on his corpse is the pair of #4 lost map piece's. Just showed up and asked to loot one no problem!
Good Luck.

234 hours spent camping him all of which was done in 14 = 18 hour camp sessions. finally saw him and got my map piece. also he is not on a PH i didn't kill a thing to get him to spawn. just have bad luck when it comes to him spawning guildies kept saying they would get the map piece 10 - 15 minutes after i left and they took over.

To confirm my suspicions ill get back to you if stormy spawns just as if a cougar does, with the 8min spawn. If he spawns 8mins after a cougar drops then its almost a sure thing. Will get back to you when i get him :).

28 Hours in and No SF...

Ok, here is the deal with Stormfeather's spawn. He is NOT a timed spawn. The first proof i have is that sony themselves have said he is a random spawn and not a timed one. Also, if he were to be a timed then it isnt 31hours because he would have popped during my time here tonight on the karana server. Also, there is a cougar ph. It is on an 8min spawn timer. My big bad evidence is this however! During my camping of him they did a zone repop and guess what? no stormy. just the cougar ph again. thats all the reasons why he is a random spawn with a PH and not a timed spawn. Wow, i hope that didnt come out sounding stupid. im sooo tired from camping him so long >_<

I am camping Stormfeather right now on the Karana server. I have been surfing the net to pass the time and ran across this article on the official EQ site from SONY.
http://eqlive.station.sony.com/community/dev_view.jsp?id=50706
Basically it says that SF is a RANDOM spawn. I don't really know whether to believe this or if MAYBE they changed his spawn since the article was written.
From the discriptions of where he spawns it seems that if Stormfeather IS a random spawn then the Cougar that spawns next to the tree is likely to be his PH. Has anyone camped him and got a spawn without killing this mob?
Right now I have been camping for 8 hours with no luck but am determined to make it AT LEAST through one day one camping. I'll let you know how it comes out.

I wouldn't trust sony on that linked statement - they've never had any real consideration for the time their customers invest into this game.
"Random" + or - variable, perhaps, but the fact is that SF is a long assed camp in the butt end of a green-con zone with nothing to do but stare at the bleak landscape.
Theres no skill or gameplay involved in the SF camp - just a collossal waste of free time.
Pretty unecessary really from a design point of view and completely devoid of any kind of fun.

Killed Stormfeather at 9:30PM EST on the Karana Server. I camped him for 15.5 hours. Someone came buy claiming that it had been 30 Hours since the last spawn and then I had to wait an additional 3 hours for Stormfeather.
Not sure if this helps anyone. I passed most of the time surfing the internet. I REALLY wish ther was a merchant nearby where I could by tradeskill stuff. I would be a GM Fletcher if there was. Good Luck to all and I now have to do the minor parts of the quest to get my Eye patch.

Not to brag BUT.... I got up this morning after Stormfeather and was running to GD to do Tizmacks... ran to ToFS and Lodi is up ... get some friends and take him down ... Belt of the Turtle drops and I win the roll ... a good day for my Warrior, Gurglespit Tummyrumble.
Morell-Thule SF down at 11:00AM July 26...
I can confirm his spawn to be 31hours or so.. he spawned almost exactly 31 hours after death...
I dont see what people dont get about his loc...
He spawns right under the tree with gnomes... like 1foot away from them to the left(towards the dock) if ur facing the tree from uphill... once spawned he travels in triangular route about 100x100feet... something like this
the star is where the tree is... and @ is the edge of the cliff (corner)

16 Hours so far on Tribunal. Gonna keep going at it tho. I sure hope he isn't skipping spawns this round.
Waited 10 hours the other day, and no show as well.
Lodi was a pushover part of the quest compared to this guy. ;/

I dont have an exact LOC on spawn for Stormfeather but if you are standing at the top of the hill from the card playing Gnomes facing them and the dock ...Stormfeather spawns just to the left of the tree they are under. Almost under it. Hope that narrows it for ye. Oh...its 7/6/4...anyone take him rescently on Tarrew Marr? I need to figure time so I can finish this for my War;)

It's funny how there are several peeps asking for his spawn loc. and several folks have killed him.. but no one manages to get a loc for the spawn point... even a relatively close loc would be helpful. I know where the three card playing gnomes are.. but where in relation to them does he spawn? Tell ya what. Ill camp his **** and when he spawns ill get a loc and post it!
