If it wasn't for my legion mates alerting a few Sarkonis npcs, I'd say they don't exist lol. I can't ever seem to find elite/boss seasonal npcs.

I've found 8 Gridrunners and 2 Sarkonis thus far. Though I really only NPC'd for the first 3 days of the event so far, as that was when I was hunting Darmos Drones as well.

You do have to do a fair amount of NPCing usually to find those.

Updated information on the planet effect as well as the upgraded Sarkonis, Harvest Leader drop.

I think that is everything?

13 Gridrunners, 11 archotage, at least 70 harvesters. 0 sarkonis so far. Maybe one day I will find one lol.

If it helps, I started event at level 1560...in 7 levels i've found 21 harvestors, 8 gridrunners, 11 archotage, and 2 sarkonis.

The sarkonis is defintely more hard to come by.

Side note, I don't npc heavy, so for people doing 20-30 levels so far i'd expect at least double or triple my results.

The archotage dont seem to show up unless youve met the prereq missions.

9,740 NPC kills
2 Sarkonis
23 T.O. TerraFounder
37 Archotage Transmitter
132 Captured T.O. Harvester V

Ah, that explains why I didn't find even one Archotage since the beginning of the event.

Should be added to the info on the first page

It is, here let me show you;

Notice how it clearly states they're a Mission NPC

That means you need to have the Daily Unlocked to find them.

On the subject of them being a mission NPC, is it possible this daily will be archived at a later date or do we think this extension of the chain will only be available for 3 weeks a year?

I believe it will not be archived and will only be available every Thanksgiving.
The daily is infinitely repeatable, right?

Im crossing my fingers that this is gls first branching chain. from the dialog its clear you and rayvern arent even and theres potential for an continuation followed by the recruitment of rayvern as an ally

Yeah my favourite (and only) space fox/cat, I am intrigued to see how it might play out

Looks like I'm going to find 0 Sarkonis this event. Continuing my trend of not finding the top elites/bosses during seasonals lol

I've found at least a dozen and haven't done much npcing at all the last week or so. You should post your npc count when making claims like that because the only thought I have is that you don't actually kill very many.

I didn't track my npc count so I can't provide you with an accurate number. I've found around 130 harvesters, over 30 transmitters, and 20 something terrafounders if that helps give you an estimate.

Over the past 24hrs or so I killed about 2k npcs as of this update. Add about 20 more harvesters and some transmitters and terrafounders. 0 Sarkonis.

Bumping this up so we can find it faster before the 2015 event starts.

And now we sit on our butts and wait until (likely) sometime next week for the event.

remember .. you need to have finished the mission Ravyn's Return before you can access the Archotage daily mission .. and you also won't find the Archotage NPCs on your bt until then either.

I made a point of finishing Ravyn's Return in September for that very reason.

Do you guys think it'll pop up within the next couple days?
