Talk:The Cipher of Melandru

One location is in a dirt circle next to a group of Ceratadon, It would be best to pull the facet away from them or kill them then the facet, as the Ceratadon have very heavy earth magic spikes and Sliver Armor which can instantly take down a tank and eventually the whole team. If you have trouble taking down the facet, try to refrain from using conditions/hexes on it, as Melandru's Resilience will help him level the playing field if you stack conditions/hexes.

 * It seems to change every time. I was zoning in and out while farming and sometimes I would be really close to it, other times I wouldn't even make the divination bar fill. --Heelz 01:57, 4 September 2007 (CDT)

Map of spawn locations
Noticed a map with some possible spawn locations for the Facet has recently been included, personally from my own testing it appears to be entirely random rather than specific "spawn spots". Besides which, since there's already the "getting warmer / colder" device, not really see the benefit of maintaining maps since each time going to have to discover where the Facet is anyway. However, before just removing the image without comment, wanted to get a gauge on what the general feeling is towards this. --Wolfie (talk|contribs) 01:20, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
 * I find the Divination to be next to useless since you have to be within about one radar of the spot before it even registers anything...but yeah, from my experience also, the spawn points are completely random, though they do seem to switch upon zoning.

 * Yep, some people advocate continually rezoning until you get a spawn which is nearby, though question the amount of time spent rezoning multiple times verses just getting on with it and just find the facet as to which is the quicker, does seem to come down to plain luck. I tested each of these Cipher quests many times (so, so many times) trying to detect a pattern or if consistent spawn locations, nothing obvious came out of it. --Wolfie [[Image:Wolfie_sig.jpg|19px]] (talk|contribs) 02:24, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
