Well in light of this info it makes it -less- reasonable that Dreamwalker's progress bar is gated behind the completion of the trial.

I guess the Devs still decided they rather hide the progress bar until you completed the trial so that people wouldn't be confused(?) about what that half-finished badge was for. Seems like a very weak rationale if you ask me.

• Is the first challenge included in this?

• Or did I miss a third challenge at some point?
I'm not sure since I have not yet been able to earn this badge. Perhaps Snow Globe would know since the original post and information was from him.

That is what the badge hint text says during the open beta.

Edit:
The hint text is currently the same.

Finally got this badge tonight, giving us the MoTPN, and we completed all parts just as quick as we could i dont know if the 250 public opinion challenge is included or not - and yeah there is only TWO 500 challenges

we certainly didnt see any "third" challenge

The feeling on Union was that Jack & Lanaru are the toughest to get. Have others found the same or were we just unlucky?

Paladin was the sticky one for myself...

I dont think any are rare per se...its just the luck of the draw..the game doesnt know or care that you already have certain ones..its still the same percent chance for each one to spawn no matter if you have run it a million times or once, but run it enough and you will get them.

I have a feeling the "hardest one to get" is always going to be the one that makes you have to re-run the trial several more times while you're stuck at 15/16 waiting for the last one to show. This is akin to always finding something you're looking for in the "last place" you look.

Yeah turns out when I responded to you about this I didn't realize you had to complete a MoM before that progress bar would appear. I was lucky enough to finish the trial the first time I ran it so I just assumed the progress bar would show up regardless. Sorry about that.

I suspect you are right, was just wondering if there was any weighting on the spawns but it seems not.

Nah it's cool... I just need to get the right ones to spawn to finish off the last 8... of course I'll get to 15/16 and it will take weeks before you get the one you need...

I have completed MoM 5 times (I think) and failed 3. I currently have 10/16 of the monsters, and I have seen Jack and Lanaruu at least 4 times each. I seem to be missing the Lichen Walker, Jurassik, Bat'Zul, Deathsurge, Caleb, and the Kronos Titan. Most of the people in my SG (that have commented on there progress) also seem to be missing Kronos, Caleb and Deathsurge. Just luck of the draw, IMO, but I know we will get them in time.

Yeah until a Dev tells us otherwise I'm pretty much convinced these are effectively random and weighted equally. Out of 6 runs so far I'm sitting at 13/16 and unlike you I've seen ones like Jurassik and Deathsurge at least twice each. Too bad we couldn't rack up the ones we've seen more than once and trade them amongst each other.

Do the Nightmares in the connection breaking phase count? That's where I've seen most of the monsters I was missing. I've seen Kronos, Deathsurge, Lanaruu, one of the other Shadow Shard guys, Avatar of Hami, and Bat'Zul in the first phase.

Nope. Just the ones in the first phase count. Which means that you'll have to run that phase multiple times to get them all.

Although I've encountered some Nightmares twice as often as others, the *end result* (in my experience) is very even. Between them, my two badgers ran MoM (either to completion or initial phase only) 30 times.

Exotica ran MoM 16 times and obtained all 16 Nightmares. Note: She obtained the 16th and final Nightmare on her 16th run, see Code/window below.
Una ran MoM 14 times and sits at 14 of 16 Nightmares. She obtained those 14 Nightmares in her first 10 trials.

Here's the breakdown :

Avatar of Hamidon 10
Adamastor 8
Bat'Zul 8
Lanaru the Crazed 8
Eochai 7
Paladin 7
Jack in Irons 6
Deathsurge 5
Jurassik 5
Ruladak the Strong 5
Babbage 4
Lichen-Infested Extinction War Walker 4
Crystal Titan 3
Kronos Titan 3
Lord Winter 3
Caleb 2
Unknowns due to crashing 2
---------------------------------------
Total 90 (30 runs x 3 Nightmares each)

In case anyone was curious as to possible patterns in groupings:

At any rate, it is random. Nice randomy random with random sauce.

Una ran MoM 14 times and sits at 14 of 16 Nightmares. She obtained those 14 Nightmares in her first 10 trials.

Here's the breakdown :

Eochai 7

Deathsurge 5
Jurassik 5
Ruladak the Strong 5
Babbage 4
Lichen-Infested Extinction War Walker 4
Crystal Titan 3
Kronos Titan 3
Lord Winter 3
Caleb 2
Unknowns due to crashing 2
---------------------------------------
Total 90 (30 runs x 3 Nightmares each)

[/CODE]

At any rate, it is random. Nice randomy random with random sauce.

Why is it no surprise to see that that pesky "forever missing" Caleb only gets two viewings in 90!

Heh in our group last night Caleb was "trolling" us...he was spawning almost every time (ie., once out of the 3 nightmares every time).

The last three that took "forever" to spawn were:

Lichen-Infested War Walker, Crystal Titan and Lunaruu with Lunaruu being the biggest holdout for us.

Well I'll add my two cents to this for what it's worth.

I've managed to get the Dreamwalker badge twice now. It only took one of my alts 12 runs to get the 16 Nightmares but it took the other 24 runs. In fairness the one that took 24 runs had managed to get 15/16 in only roughly 12 runs or so, but it took the rest to get the last one, which in my case was Caleb again.

My guess is that these Nightmares spawn in a similar way to the groupings of Sig AVs that spawn in RV. They're probably "random" but random in certain groupings like Angry_Angel was implying. This could explain why sometimes you can go dozens of runs without seeing Caleb (for example) and then other times you see him repeatedly.

Don't bother to apologize, you have no need... Snowglobe is just being overly possessive of something he really has no claim to.
