I think it's been pretty clearly demonstrated here that you're erroneously linking two things and claiming there is cause and effect. Just because you didn't find a GM at a spawn point during a Banner event does NOT prove the Banner event had anything to do with that GM not being out at that particular time.

Was just is in GV and was at a Eochai spawn point, next to it was the Arachnos Flyer on one of its patrol stops, and a Banner event was at 17:00 and counting.

Of course, all i had to base my judgement was my own experience. It might have been an unseelie that ran away but after the banner event he was at a spawn point we already checked.

And how many threads have we seen from people who were absolutely certain the devs nerfed accuracy?

Iron Warrior earned three times on three alts in Talos with a team of 8 in under 30 minutes.

10-22-2009 01:09:45 Congratulations! You earned the Iron Warrior badge.
10-22-2009 01:19:14 Congratulations! You earned the Iron Warrior badge.
10-22-2009 01:24:46 Congratulations! You earned the Iron Warrior badge.

I called in badge channels to specifically advise that we were looking to defeat Eochai repeatedly until Jack spawned. The team filled quickly and was nice enough to let me switch alts between each Jack.

We did not have to kill Eochai many times between each spawn - 3 before the first Jack, 1 before the second Jack. There may have been one between the second and third but I was switching alts, returned, and found my team was already on the third Jack.

There was one other team hunting him. It was around 1 am so not many folks were on. It is the Virtue server and normally we'd have far more teams hunting but not this evening. Though, the last few days have been very busy with 2-3 Peregrines, GV's, Atlas, etc.

I can only recommend assembling a team of 8, having them dedicated to scouting specific areas, and using a fair sized - open air zone such as Talos. IP is too big. Others have too many buildings to see well at a distance. Also, some badgers tell me that he doesn't spawn in Atlas or GC. Good luck to you.

PS. I have seen Eochai spawn next to a Banner. So, considering the time between the new Supernatural events, one could work on spawning Jack undisturbed easily.

Right.

GMs are not affected by Zone events. They never have been.

Even during Rikti raids, GMs still spawn and can be defeated normally while an Invasion is going on. Same goes for the Zombie and new Deadly Apocalypse Event as well.

It´s different. I cant check if it spawns or not in a combat log

Gratz on the frequent Jacks.

As to Jack spawning: the lowest level blueside zone he will spawn is Talos, for redside it's Sharkhead.

Sad to see they still haven't fixed the problem with Jack spawning.

It's not different. It's still based on one person's personal observations which are notoriously unreliable.

If you define problem as design decision, then they certainly haven't. I don't agree with the decision to only have a 10% chance of him spawning once Eochai is defeated, or with the decision to limit it to level 20+ zones, but it is either working as designed or working the same as it has since 2006, so the Devs see no problem.

The GMs (halloween or otherwise) are definitely spawning while the banner event is still in effect....

...had the Arachnos flier decide to make a landing nearly ontop of one of the banners in Grandville...that was a bit of a surprise to say the least.

Must have been bad luck then, thanks all.

Got my Iron Warrior badge today, took 15 Eochi drops in PI. I can confirm that Eochi will still spawn during Banner events as well as Zombie Apocalypse.
