rare pets

[Axaios]

When a pet is rare how often does it spawn? I was looking for one rare for hours but it never appeared...

[amrasillias]

all rares have different spawn timers, and even those spawn timers can be within a certain range, so you can never be really sure... for some it takes 24 hours, and other take maybe 1,5 hour.

What pet are you looking for?

I was looking for Arcturis in Grizzly Hills (spirit beast, ferocity)

Arcturis is probably one of the harder camps... From what I've gathered, his spawn timer is immensely wide (compensating for the fact that he only has one spawn point) so you might be in for a long wait. Good luck.

Took me 7 hours of camping him before he spawned.
But took a friend around 2 days and he still didn't spawned for him. My guess is that it can take a very long time.

When i camed him, i was on if for about 8 hours myself, was about to give up, since i started logging out ectect, and then he spawned
Should be easier to find him now, just go there every now and then.

I will wait the same time for other exotic rare pets?

When I tamed Arcturis, it was some very early morning. My friend had been after him for ages and I told her the time when he was up last time. And we counted exactly 21 hours for him to spawn that time. I'd suggest downloading NPC-scan and parking your hunter on his spawn point. You can just alt tab away and surf the internet or go cook dinner or watch a movie while waiting.

I had to wait 26 hours for Arcturis. My friend waited 72.

I've seen 21 hours for Arcturis, myself. I believe I counted at least twice that he spawned at 21 hours. But I don't think that's by any means his only possible spawn time.
