I took us 5 hours each day, two days to get this little bugger to spawn. Maybe he spawned for someone else while we were sleeping from 3am to 6am but somehow I doubt it. Anyway, easy kill, easy to kill the PH. (And no, killing all the mobs in the underwater area doesn't work folks, don't waste the time unless you're -that- bored) Anyway.. Natisha (If that's her name) DID go after the fire elemental once we did the turn in. Now I have a 64 Warrior who deals a GREAT amount of fast damage. I had my discipline up which makes me crit with -every- hit, I had haste on, and I took down that fire elemental in a heap.. but because she went after it? Somehow she managed to get the finishing blow by dealing some sort of damage even after it said it died and the mob went 'poof'. Time to camp all over again. (GAH!! *Rips her hair out*) TAKE AN ENCHANTER. Natisha CAN be mezzed FIRST try!! Just mez her and kill the elemental..save yourself the *PAIN*!
Killed after about 5 hours of camping. Camped for 6 spawns one day, no pop, next day popped on the 4th spawn. There's not much to add about him that's not been said except that if you're going to be doing this camp, please ignore all the people describing the imaginary "tricks to make him spawn faster." You kill the PH and wait. That's it. Clearing all other mobs in the zone, jumping up and down on his spawn point, trying to figure out some kind of special "frequency" of him spawning in order to predict when he'll spawn next--it's all bunk.
I recently killed Bergurgle (8.5 hrs). When I turned in the crown to Shmendrik Lavawalker it took Natisha about a min to find him. After that she did NOT try to kill the Flame spirit. I went ahead and got the dammaged by killing Shmendrik Lavawalker ahead of schedule like others did. Just letting you all know that maybe she doesnt ks The spirit of flame anymore, although it could have been cause I alrady had a dammaged crown. Hope this helps.
Well.. its late here... and i have been camping this mob for about 1 day.. i am a lvl 52 cleric.. and i am still camping this thing.. it sucks... but i guess it will come soon .. well good luck to ya'll out there !!
Camped for 6 hours with alt and got it sotlden because I was pulling though the tunnel to the ground up top...I suggest killing in the tunnel if able.... Sad people play too. :(
I was camping this Mob for a couple days, when a guildie came to help me out. I didn't know which was the place holder at the time.
She noticed that the PH was missing and went to have a look around. This little %^*# had popped on top (outside) of the cave. So if your having trouble getting him to spawn of the PH is missing. Check the outside of the cave.
I camped Lord Bergurgle with my 25 clr, a 70 dru, and a 70 war for 3 days using different methods others had posted in here. The method I found to work best is to camp at very top of tower (as hard as it was to stay up there). Anyways, we camped him for 3 days straight and he finally popped. The messed up part is he popped 3 times that day when he popped for me. Haha, waiting 3 days and then found out he popped 3 times the day he popped for me. This just goes to show you how random this pop is. Hope this helps all of you out.
When camping on very top, only pull the PH and kill him. Don't bother with Deep or the other two mobs. PH pops every 30 minutes. Just hope that one of those times its the Lord himself.
Yuppers, I camped Lord Bergurgle for about a day or so and he did finally pop. Aquadoc (my 2nd box cleric) looted the crown and is off to the epic races....
The spawn dance worked for me. Lol. I finally got my cleric to 46 and decided it was time to start my 1.0. So I ran her out to Rathetear and camped her before the tower. Logged on my 70 Beastlord cleared the tower then logged her back in and camped her ontop and then back in with my bst and sat there letting my pet kill them. Had my watch set for 30 minutes. Hour and a half later. The guy spawns. Needless to say i'm jumping for joy. I think the spawning on this mob is completely random with no time intervals. So good luck to all the others that attempt this.
How many licks does it take to get to the center of the tower that spawns Lord Bergugle?
Your faction standing with Riptide Goblins cannot possibly get any worse. Your faction standing with Storm Guard cannot get any better! Your faction standing with Emerald Warriors cannot get any better! Your faction standing with Gem Choppers got better!
NOTE the faction: I am a Dark Elf
Any suggestions on this beyond ridiculous camp other than what has been posted earlier?
OK so after 32 straight hours in this camp I decided to do the spawn dance (what was I thinking, how could I have forgotten this?!?!) so don't ya know 1 min later the Lord himself pops and gives up his crown to me. PEOPLE DO NOT FORGET TO DANCE!!!! save yourself the 32 hours tourment that I went through.
Ok So I sat down there for 7+ hours.. and only ONE mob was spawning.. and deep was there. .I got like 12 tainted and 2 corrupted so at least my druid got something. I then figured well let me petition and GMS said it was broken GRR.. So then I said wait a sec. And i took my druid and ran above the tower(to what would be its ceiling) but still under the water and low and behold TWO gobbies.. the ones that were NEVER respawning were right there.. so now I am killing them in hopes to make him spawn.
WHAT garbage.. Gm said they knew it was a problem and couldnt do squat..
I just spent 2 days camping this guy. He is as long of a spawn as I remember from 2 years ago. It took us a combined 15 hours in 2 days to get him to pop. Plan on having an EB item on you, and he is a 29 minute spawn. He is located in the middle of the 3 deepwater goblins located in the tower.
Here's a good trick. If you stand on top of the tower and just use the F9 over head view you can target the middle spawn easy if youre trying to do this solo. I am a 63 mage I needed no help of course. His companions do try to heal him though if you don't take the ph or named out quick enough. It's not a hard camp, but it is a busy one. I think a dozen people were there to check the spawn in the 2 days I camped it.
yesterday 3/28/05 I finally decide to try the cleric epic ... went to the underwater tower and Deep was up..... It was an easy kill for me 63 cleric and 2 boxing a 66mage.... we killed Deep with ease then the tainted goblin pops ... killed it .... corrupt pops right after ... then pow the Lord pops ... it was really wierd seeing all them pop in a row like that .... not too sure if this is normal but it worked for me ... If you have the fire power and deep is up kill her and see if this happens to you ... Good luck ...
Bergurgle spawns right in front of Deep. i.e., not on the same spawn point and are not part of the same spawn cycle.
Bergurgle and his PH are on a 30 minute timer while the rest of the gobbies around the tower on are a 5 minute timer. Tainted spawns in one of the 5 minute spawn points, I think in any of the 5 minute spots but I'm not sure. Burgurle only spawns on the 30 minute spawn point, right in front of Deep.
I believe that it is sheer coincidence that Bergurgle and Tainted spawned right as you made your kills and not as a result of the kills. I certainly wouldn't complain if I had the same coincidental luck but killing Deep has nothing to do with spawning Tainted or Bergurgle.
I camped Berg for only 4 hours before he spawned. We'd found out that he'd spawned at 7pm PST and we killed him at 12am PST so the 12 hour spawn timer is NOT accurate. He is completely random. We just kept killing anything that moved except for Deep. For anyone that doesn't know, she is part of the Monk epic. Now I just have to do the turn in. =)
I heard this was a bad camp, as it takes a long time to get him to spawn. So when I got there for the first time and he was already up I was amazed. So I soloed him and looted the crown. But this is where it gets bad. I went to do the next turn in and found that I didn't have the crown, so i went back and he had already rotted. It had given me the message asking if I wante dto loot the no drop item and I said yes. But he will start sinking. He had aparently sunk and was to far away for me to acually loot the tiem from him so i got screwed. Petitioned, but they said there was no record of me looting it and so they couldn't do anything. So I am currently camping him again. So just make sure you swim to bottom to loot the crown.
Killed Burgie this am. I have been camping this guy for several days now, using /log to mark the time that he spawns or is killed if and when I am afk (like when I am sleeping). I figured this way I would at least know a ToD and could guesstimate the next spawn time. Here's the thing though: Over the past 48hrs he has spawned only once, just a few minutes ago when I killed him. There had been someone else camping his PH/upper tower for around 7hrs+ last night and when I woke up this morning to see what I could see there were NO gobbos in the spawn locations at the top of the tower (Deep was up, however), so I checked the ceiling and viola! 3 gobbos swimming around the bottom of the lake. I Harmony of Natured two of them and root/nuked the third to death, then I had to take my daughter to school. When I returned I found Burgie by himself at the top of the tower just where he should be. I root/nuked/dot'd him down (after a couple CHs) and logged my cleric to loot the crown. My points are these: 1) Its my belief that Burgurgle has a chance to spawn @ every 12hrs or so with a chance to skip a spawn. So, in effect his spawn timer is every 12hrs, or 24hrs, or 36hrs, etc.. 2) If you notice that there are one or more gobbo spawn locs that are absent of spawns, check the ceiling above the tower (ie. the bottom of the lake just above the tower) to see if perchance it has "mis-spawned", because this may be throwing off the spawning of Burgie. Obviously this may just be coincidence...but you never know. IMO, at least since the latest patch, things are screwy in Lake Rathe in a number of ways and these mis-placed spawns might be messing with Burgie's normal spawning routine. (As an example of screwy: Several times over the past week, when I have camped from my druid to another toon, to buff a guildie with another toon or whathaveyou, when I log back onto the druid he is no longer at the top of the tower but instead he is standing on the dock at the gnoll camp near the SK zone. Also, for at least two days, Deep was standing, stuck apparently, at the Rathe Mtns. zone and would not respond to /hails. I /bug reported about her and the following day, after a short patch, she was back at her normal station.) Thats it, gluck to all of you trying to do your Cleric Epic. And if you thought this camp was frustrating just wait until you have to collect shards in SF. Blah!
Ok I know I was lucky, but I wanted to post in hopes of helping someone. This only took me about 4 hours total to get him to spawn. Prior posts about the 3rd gobbie that is supposed to be in the tower is correct, or at least on the Quellious Server. The 3rd gobbie that is supposed to be in the tower is actually outside the cave, on the bottom of the lake just over the tower if you use your map.
Also got lucky with Gimblox, got him to spawn on first round of kills. Took 1/2 hour total.
PH is middle goblin on second floor of under water tower. PH pops right in front of Deep if she is up. I camped with 54 SK sitting on very top of tower pulling only ph for 10hrs. Getting furstrated I brought my 68 bard and killed every Goblin in cave. 2 at each cave entrance the four at each conor of tower 2 on bottom floor and three on second floor....All goblins are on a 5min timer and Ph is on a 30min timer. I wiped 2 rounds and then lord poped on second round..
They say that you only have to pull ph to get named to pop. I believe that the other goblins are triggers if u keep them down he will pop faster...Like I said, my 2 cents
Ok, found out a nice helpful deal. When I was camping this stupid guy I thought he was bugged/broken. So being a druid I tracked down all of the deepwater gobos and found two stuck in the cave ceiling above tower. After killing them took about 7 hours to spawn Bergurgle, but still. If you are haveing troubles spawning the PH for Bergurgle swim to the top of cave and look through the ceiling and if you see any gobos use the ~ key to target and root nuke root nuke away. But you all might have known all of that. Did this on the nameless server today.
Someone here brought up a very good point, there is a pathing issue if someone attempts to kill the Goblins and they run away. If you are camping the Lord and you find out that there is only 2 spawns at the top of the tower go looking on the lake floor directly above the tower. I did that today and found the third goblin there. Perhaps that would speed up the spawn rate of the Lord
Ok I had camped the spot for 9 hours one morning with no luck but i noticed that the guard on teh SE never popped (I was alittle desparate to get him and was readding anything I could fin) well I wen back today a bit earlier this morning and guess what it had popped accidentily got agroed on the first time trying to clear but the second pop of the non-PH guards we left him and never killed him again and 24 minutes n the second later Bergur king popped and we killed him got the crown moved on to the turn-in So I would say i back up Nutaris fully will try again when a guildie needs to do it or I get really bored have a nice day
