Well if you use public it was stated that the first group to get to him gets him.
Kind of sucks but can make it fun.
Hopefully soon it will be changed to a max of 2 or 3 steps as it does get annoying chasing it around.

We were finally able to get him after just 3 shadow steps.  It was our first kill on him in the last full week of chasing him around.  We only have limited time so unless its a weekend or we don't have to work, we have to give up after that long and call it a night.    We are only in T2 gear fully aug'd but it's completely doable.  It just sucks spending that much time and surviving just to have him keep stepping at around 20ish% every time.    We typically survive every attempt now but that much stepping is just crazy.   Our group makeup War (100roa / has both 50 sorc and 41 guardian), paly (48 oracle), paly ( 1 oracle), monk (25 brawler), mage (think around 35ish sorc), cleric (41 oracle).     Great survivability but he says see ya later almost every time.     As of today though he finally stopped stepping and we got our first 3.5

with this group makeup it takes about 25 minutes.  I think the loot is definitely worth a couple shadow steps and makes the fight interesting but more than that it gets very tedious. Smiley

Did Hunter say he was changing it to only 2 steps?  Just wondering as I haven't seen him post it.
The stepping is worth getting the charm upgrade for my alts.  Sure beats LDoNs!

- Shadow now has 50% chance instead of 66% chance of doing a Shadow Step. Still need some time to create the limit to 2 max shadow steps before he doesn't shadow step anymore. But with the 50% chance, he should shadow step too many times unless the RNG really hates you.
He said this awhile back (Dec 24th Update to be exact)

Unless a guildy really needs the help, I am done chasing Shadow around until the step rate is adjusted.  I've wasted so much play time on this.  It's so frustrating doing enough damage to kill him multiple times but still be no closer to success than the minute I began.  I can't play 6 hours at a time to finally outlast EQ's famous RNG.  If I had the option, I'd go fight the old super-hp version Shadow.  At least I'd have my success in under 60 minutes.

The charms are nice, but given my decent but non-maxed DPS, LDoN is still a faster way to collect them, especially if there's a specific type of charm I'm after.

Please roll out the 2 step max or come out with some other adjustment like zero steps and a blue stone to spawn him.

Maybe when I'm on vacation working on T5 which I plan to finish in Feb. I'd also consider streamlining T3/T4 to make it faster too, with lower stone req for bosses, and maybe a rot bot.

This guy is a pain in the backside... I can take him with my group, no problem, but trying to track down his respawn point is a major pain, I have no tracker in my group so it is a run around the zone randomly and hope I bump back into him before I get tired of F - ing around and decide to camp
