    Has any other guild killed him yet? I was very intrigued by his strange spawn cycle and rarity. I hadn't seen him before, and it is kinda a raid encounter. If you look here he is included in the raid progression thread. Though I would place him in stage 2. It was cool to see him.

    The Mythical Wurm itself. Technically a Vacuum Worm


    Some of the Temerity kill crew who braved this wild encounter.

    Did you guys kill him yet Rimi? Just to check it off the list?

    I killed it once on live in the PoP era. I pulled it to the zone in, and used a corner at the entrance to block line of sight and avoid the mana drain aoe. The tank was a lvl 65 rogue with minimal aas and his best gear was from ssra because he was in a scrub guild that didn't really raid PoP much. The healer was a elemental and vt geared shaman with plenty of aas. It doesn't have crazy hit points like va dyn, or at least it shouldn't. Just finding it up seems to be the trick.

    nope, no interest in doing so either since it sounds like a multi-day poop-sock for a trash mob
    seems even more pointless than other 'check it off the list' type encounters

    You can do it without socking in front of your computer all day. Meh, it was an interesting mob to me because of it's rareness and unpredictable spawn. It's like doing Sontalak once, just to say you have done it.

    Worm mobs are the worst anyway if you are a melee. /pass

    it was fun training ourselves with piles of centi, getting this guy to the zone-in before he poofed. the mob itself is pretty easy if you can catch him up. could be a fun trophy trio.

    This. To add a tiny bit of clarity to what I already said about my one kill: I was boxing my friend's rogue and the shaman was my main at the time. Those were the only two chars involved. I don't remember for sure, but my gut is telling me shroud of stealth probably helped make the pull easier, or even possible.

    The insanity crawler sees invisible and the centi do not assist him when you are invisible so that is the way to get him without a huge train

    Any way to post imgur photos here without the obnoxious branding and white bars. I just straight posted the links and was wondering if there was a better way to do this on this forum.

    Has anyone tried tracking this mob right after a wednesday reset ?
    Or tracking the zone throughout the day after a reset?

    I haven't spent anymore time really even looking for this mob so I'm unable to provide any further details. It was just luck that someone had found it up and we made it out in time to kill it.

    If you put a tracker in the zone and afk somewhere safe you should be able to see the zonewide emote and then at least count back from there. 2 days +/- 6 hours. The despawn timer is unfortunate.
