Camelot Grab Bag Q&A

EA Mythic's Sanya Thomas has once again posted her weekly Grab Bag Q&A on the Camelot Herald, this time answering questions about the new pet changes, the upcoming v1.87 patch, and more.
Q: Are Dob (bear in Bog of Cullen) and the Dob's Bloody Tooth still a valid mob and weapon? If he's is still a valid mob, and still has the one time drop, what is his repop time?

A: The boys in content checked for you and Dob is still kicking. But: (You have to kill other mobs to help spawn Dob and the chance for him spawning is incredibly rare.)

You'll note there is not a way to give you a specific time. (Incredibly rare) means every time you kill the place holder mob, there is a one-in-however-many chance for Dob to pop. The system doesn't ever go (Gee, it's been three hundred times in a row without Dob, I'd better give him up or else.) The odds of spawning are exactly the same every time the placeholder dies. It is more than possible to be in a location for hours without seeing a particular rare spawn, because that's how randomizers work. Personally, I find waiting to be too frustrating, so I prefer to just check for these rare guys whenever I'm running through an area.
