Where are all the cows and bulls at? I went to the rune that was marked "cows and bulls" (delucia) in the library and there was nothing, I ran around a bit but there was no cow or bull in sight, I checked delucia again in felluca and also nothing.

Some spawn areas have creatures that are on "Random Spawners". What this means is that each spawner can spawn a list of several creatures whenever one is killed. That's why you can sometimes go to hiryu woods and not see any hiryu.

I took a look at the area and the cows and bulls did spawn there but also did birds. Somebody must have been killing or taming in that area a while back which resulted in a group of birds being spawned instead of cows and bulls.

Upon looking at the spawner, I removed the birds as they didn't belong there anyways and I also extended the spawner to space out the cows. You can check back in about an hour and it should be all spawned.

Cheers Death 8)

For future reference, with this system if I kill off the current spawn it will eventually rotate to the creature I want? Right?

Yes.

Some areas have larger random spawns so it might take a while to spawn one (most notably some named creatures like grim in the labyrinth but this is primarily a relief as to not overload the whole dungeon with named creatures, cause they hurt).

Provided you're killing stuff from the same spawner, you'll eventually get the monster you're looking for (by same spawner, it's important to note that there may be 2 or more spawners in the same area. I usually stack them according to difficulty so a bird wouldn't be on the same spawner as an oni for example).

If you want to know where spawners are and some of the creatures on them (up to 3, t here may be more) check out this file:

http://www2.uovalor.com/aovspawners-output.map

Load that up in uoam and it will show all the spawners. We try to keep it fairly up to date.

It is selective advertising....thats how Goooooooogle ads works. They take keywords from the page you're on and use that as a target for the ads.

Had a feeling but didn't actually know that. Mind you, surprised something came up for cows.

Yeah it's keyword based.

I don't know why that french car credit one comes up all the time though, maybe it knows I'm french.

lol.. Mr VB Forum is sending you subliminal messages...

When I saw that screenshot it gave me avid memories of the secret Diablo 2 cow level, those cows scared me at the age of 15 and still do at the impressionable age of 21.

Now the ad is telling me I need to buy grain for the lifestock family that I apparently have
