Talk:In Honor and Service
From EQ2i, the EverQuest II wiki
Considerable amount of debate has occurred on whether or not this quest is broken. It is not. If the spies don't spawn, try looking around the area a little bit. Especially difficult to find is the spy at the Butcherblock Mountains entrance. He spawns on the root well above your head and if he is gray to you because of your level, he won't attack you.
If the spies do not immediately spawn, wait. They are not necessarily fast triggers. You may have to wait as many as 15 real time minutes for the spy you're after to spawn. Be patient. They will spawn, but it may take a little time.

[edit] Changes to Spies Spawning Per LU30
"The Crushbone Spies will now trigger every 5 minutes if you are on the right stage. If you meet the requirement and are within the 5 minute timer, then you will receive a UI message."--Kodia 20:43, 20 December 2006 (CET)
The time to spawn the spies is random and the same for -all- spies per person doing this quest. The more people you have durring this quest, the quicker the spies will spawn. Theroy has been tested and proven. Solo I had to wait 20 minutes the first time, two hours the second time, and twenty minutes the third time attempting this. This was tested via deleting the quest and reaquiring it again up to this stage.
[edit] Spies and spawning
Done this quest solo on seven different occasions. If the spy wasn't there, i simply walked into the sparkly thing at whichever location I was near and that spawned the spy or gave me a message that the spy was not yet at his post. If he wasn't there, he'd pop within 5 minutes.
[edit] Step 15
This quest no longer appears to be bugged. The officers drop their keys on the first kill and I was able to open all the lock boxes with no problems at all.--Rushka 13:45, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
- Please feel free to correct the quest with this updated information!--Kodia 14:11, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Numbering of copies?
Is the numbering wrong, or is it randomized? I'm currently on the Expedition Leader, which my quest log says is the "sixth copy". -Bekkr 22:57, September 17, 2009 (UTC)
