I don't think it is random. I've always thought there are a group of devs who decide on stats for resources then implement them every 10 - 15 days or so.


Of course I may be wrong and it could be random.

Hats off to SOE. Not many companies could take the best MMO on the market and fu*k it up completely, that takes real skill.

Uh .. the explanation is simple.


The 21 days on Nabooian avian meat on the resource list just means it's 21 days since somebody updated that on the resource list. It doesn't mean the resource is still around -- it's sure to be gone by now.


SWGCraft.com relies on people to manually put information on the resources into its database. If nobody updates a certain resource, the previous entry remains. The number of days listed (I presume you're looking at iootnega.com) means nothing when it gets beyond the normal time for a resource spawn.

Thanks to all the responses,since i have became a doc i have allways wondered how they determine how long a very good spawn lasts before it respawns.I have thought it was all random,but you never know how a game this complex actually works.


Thanks Again

It did dam,my bad i was just really getting into doc at that time and i didnt know how crucial avian was.I only harvested maybe 30-40k of it,waisted a lot of time doing other crap.

I started right at the end of the Ethelciasse spawn on Naboo, and that was at the end of January or so and Itokt wasn't until April; so good avian is usually 2 to 3 months apart. :/

Ok thanks urxii' . i hope its 2 months that would make june a good month or july.Man it seems like itokt was a long time ago not just april.


I need to keep track of this kind of stuff ,i just wish i new all this stuff during the last very good spawn of avian or even better the spawn before that you was talking about.

I would guess it's random too... Bad stuff always stays 21 days or more on my server and the good stuff 8 days

I have allways wondered how they determine how long a very good spawn of resources stays active before it respawns.


I was checking out the forums and come accross a thread and the person was from kauri,so for the heck of it i checked out their current resources.


I found the nabooian avian on kauri has been in spawn for 21 days (982 OQ 852 PE 623 DR) that is a very nice spawn of avian and for a long time.


I guess i need to switch servers,brias last good spawn of avian wasnt as good as that and lasted like 7 days.I am not sure on the exact days but i am pretty sure it was 7.


Since we have had nothing but crap,We did get a very nice spawn of reactive gas but it lasted like 5 days or something.


I guess the Devs dont like bria or something,i just wish i knew how they determine how long a spawn stays

My guess is a nifty little function called rand()
