It's been a while since the last discussion so wanted to confirm that the AC in SR still (sorta) works per the earlier post back in 2008. Namely:
ENCOUNTER_DESCRIPTION SROHusamAncientNightfall
MONSTER_1_NAME a_desert_madman
MONSTER_1_NIGHT_NAME an_ancient_cyclops
MONSTER_1_PERCENT 10
MONSTER_2_NAME a_sand_giant
MONSTER_2_NIGHT_NAME a_mummy
MONSTER_2_PERCENT 20
MONSTER_3_NAME a_sand_giant
MONSTER_3_PERCENT 10
MONSTER_4_NAME a_dervish_cutthroat
MONSTER_4_PERCENT 30
MONSTER_5_NAME a_desert_madman
MONSTER_5_PERCENT 30
I spent the last 10 days about 8-9 hours per day to get the AC. All the PHs above were spawning on the 24 min 42 sec cycle - sorta. The AC did spawn for me at night at 11 pm game time at +1251, -1635, +34. I tried to kill the PH at 12 pm to get an 8 pm chance and again before 10 pm to get a 6 am chance as other posts suggested - this was hard to maintain because the times would slowly creep and eventually the PH would spawn at 11 pm and I would lose the morning chance . Being I spent so long at this and probably got at least 10-15 chances per real time day which is close to 80-120 chances spread over the 10 days I question if this is actually 1% instead of 10% (hard to believe I got that unlucky if it is still actually 10%)
