I did search and just want to make sure i understood it correctly. So I did /who npc untargetable and A Rock Monstrosity came up and that was it. So does this mean that every ring in earth is up accept for the stone one? Please correct me if i am wrong!

I don't know much about the whole thing, but I think it's impossible to tell from spawns if a ring is up... Maybe I'm incorrect, it's been a while since my guild has done an earth ring.

/who npc trap guy

If stoneguy, mudguy, verogguy, or dustguy show up, the ring is down.

scotty33 · Post by **scotty33** » Fri Jul 23, 2004 1:05 pm

so i do /who npc timer and these names come up

vegtxt
vegeventspawn
stonetxt
the last
the creature

so which ones are rings?

vegtxt = Vine ring = does NOT mean named will spawn
stonetxt = Stone ring = does NOT mean named will spawn
the last = Mud ring = does NOT mean named will spawn
the creature = Dust ring = does NOT mean named will spawn

stoneguy = if this timer is up, Peregrin Rockskull will NOT spawn
mudguy = if this timer is up, A Monsterous Mudwalker will NOT spawn
verogguy = if this timer is up, Derugoak Bloodwalker will NOT spawn
elemguy = if this timer is up, A Perfected Warder of Earth will NOT spawn

Ring UP = Ring is spawnable and a named boss will appear at the end of the event
Ring DOWN = Ring is spawnable and non-loot dropping place holder will spawn at the end of the event

The easiest thing for you to do so that you get a better idea of what each one of the timers represents is to do a /mapfilter timer and look at your map in PoE. All the xxxguy timers will be in that little hole where the skeletons are along the right of the zone. The other timers will be right on top of pyramids where the rings are.

That last post seems ambiguous. Is this right?:

/who timer guy
If
muddite guy is up - Mud ring is down(named will not spawn)
vegerog guy is up - Vine ring is down(named will not spawn)
stone guy is up - Stone ring is down(named will not spawn)
dust guy is up - Dust ring is down(named will not spawn)
elem guy is up - MAoE will not spawn

? Is this right?

Yes, I believe you have it right.

No..I edited my post to fix a typo.

elem guy is up - Dust ring is down(named will not spawn)
arbitor guy is up - MAoE will not spawn

Like I said, use your mapfilter options and the in-game map and all this will make lots more sense than doing /who timer guy.
