MikeTheDuke Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Being the completionist I am, I am looking for getting my achievements. This means all of them, there is one though that is part of the Liberator of Taris achievement "Defeat 3 unique opponents of champion difficulty. Jiinan E'ron, Erlos Du'Ram and this Rakghoul Overlord. I know people have killed it, so I am curious to know where it is located, that is all. Please. I have tried searching the internet for it and there is nothing on there other than references to the NPC but nothing else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeTheDuke Posted April 17, 2013 Author Share Posted April 17, 2013 There must be people who have defeated this enemy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhah Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I am having the same problem finding this boss. I found the other 2 that are part of the achievement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeTheDuke Posted April 18, 2013 Author Share Posted April 18, 2013 I have PMed a user that had mentioned specifically killing this NPC so I hope I will get to hear something, once I find out I will post the information. Unless someone else can provide the details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shingara Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 its not on the other factions planet is it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhah Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I had thought I finally got my google-fu to work and found something but I believe it just means there is no location and the dot is centered on middle of map. Tried to actually get to dot for about 30 minutes heh. http://db.darthhater.com/npcs/7821/rakghoul_overlord/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhah Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 its not on the other factions planet is it. Its listed as a Republic achievement... Liberator of Taris (Republic). But these things have gone wrong before. I thought I found a forum thread where someone mentions it last night and thought it was a Jedi Consular thread talking about soloing it but my memory might be broken cause I can't find it anymore using google.

Shingara Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 (edited) Well if its listed as republic i would have to say its near the power station or the jedi ruins if i were to guess, you looked there ? Edited April 20, 2013 by Shingara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayshames Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 There's more than enough of the Achievements bugged at the moment. Some simply given wrong details, some requiring wrong things and others.. well let's just say they might as well be for a different game because they sure as hell aren't on this one. Though, I wish you good luck with your completion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieKirby Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 (edited) I believe I saw it in the Rakghoul Warren, the place where you do the quest to get the camera during the Taris Bonus Series....well, the following quest, that leads you into the warren, you know there are 2 steps leading down, one is to do the final stage of the bonus quest, the other leads down to where the overlord is, I never attempt to kill it. Its a big *** rakghoul, it will be hard to miss. Edited April 18, 2013 by JamieKirby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeTheDuke Posted April 19, 2013 Author Share Posted April 19, 2013 We I am currently standing in the Abandoned Power Station, in the location where I believe it is said, I have had a couple of friends wait there for an hour or so then myself about this same, to no avail. The other Rakghouls have respawned several times over, but this Champion, Rakghoul Overlord has not shown. My coordinates are X: 1007 Y: 1063 Z: -187. Is this about the right spot.

Yeah I checked out the spot I thought he was referring to, the other room where you don't get that last tusk/bone for the bonus quest stage 3. I did not see the overlord either.

FaustusXIII Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Got him. For people who don't remember exactly, here is the Power Plant location: Abandoned Power Plant Here is almost exactly where he spawns if you're looking at the power plant map: Inside Power Plant Here is what you'll see most of the time because his spawn timer is ridiculous:Spawn Location And this is what the beastie looks like: Rakghoul Overlord As stated largely and in bold, his spawn timer is crazy. We probably waited 2-3 hours last night and nada. I just logged in today to check. Had to switch instances to find him. Good hunting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZeroPlus Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Yeah... spent the last 2 days on Taris and no sign of this guy. Sad part: I've killed him at least 3 times that I remember in the past before the achievement system. Now he doesn't spawn and my past kills don't count. Please fix his spawn rate Bioware. Standing around for hours waiting for a monster to spawn is not fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eata-Rowga Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 his respawn was always bad i think it's similar to the fallen Jedi on Korriban the best chance to get him -> a new instance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninja_Amnesty Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 (edited) After camping this for hours and hours and placing one of my high levels there to check on it many times throughout the day, this is what eventually worked for me.... Server shut down for the last patch. When it came back up, logged on my toon camping the site and he was there. I don't know if the server shutting down for the patch reset it or what, all I know is that is what worked for me. I would suggest not worrying about it too much and try this approach so you don't waste a lot of time like I did.

Alphasgimaone Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 I don't know why they can just make the timers on the roaming champions the same. Between the increased populations and the achievements, some are just way too long. Camping for a WB all day is one thing. I don't like it, but I can understand how they might think it's necessary. But these lesser champs that most people can solo at level really shouldn't be that long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandOfKane Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 I definitely remembered seeing him in the power plant while getting the datacron, even killed him with the other guy at one point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoshiRaphElan Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 his respawn was always bad i think it's similar to the fallen Jedi on Korriban the best chance to get him -> a new instance So where is this Jedi? I've never seen him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
althene Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 So where is this Jedi? I've never seen him. If he's spawned, he'll be guarding the datacron in the area with the two heroic 2+ missions. He's ganked me a couple times while I merrily skipped around the corner to pick up my 'cron. For the level range, he's actually kind of a beast.

JFEverlast Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Finally got him. Here is a picture just to show how much health he has and the achievement. Rakghoul Overlord Health Liberator of Taris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroPlus Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Yeah... spent the last 2 days on Taris and no sign of this guy. Sad part: I've killed him at least 3 times that I remember in the past before the achievement system. Now he doesn't spawn and my past kills don't count. Please fix his spawn rate Bioware. Standing around for hours waiting for a monster to spawn is not fun. Finally got him! Logged out yesterday in front of his spawn spot. (He wasn't there.) Logged in this morning at about 09:30 GMT. Still not there. Checked and only one instance of Taris was up. Waited and waited. At about 11:45 GMT a new instance of Taris was spawned (the current instance was at 116 players when I noticed the new instance). Switched to instance (2). He was there! Killed him. Dinged the achievement! Did a happy dance and logged out. It is confirmed. He must only spawn once per server reset/instance "creation". The trick was waiting at his spawn spot until a new instance is created for Taris and then switching to that instance to catch him. Hope that helps others waiting/wanting to kill him. Good luck!
