They also spawned special colored deaemons as minions for minax....that doesn't mean it's a real spawn.

Effectively you both have said that we ultimately just aren't sure if the spawned or not, which is what I've been saying for a while now. :P

So back to like I said, spawned or not (we can't know either way for certain... We simple CAN'T at this point in time), it WAS a creature made in T2A so it existed in one form or another no matter how you look at it.

It wasn't a normal spawn until you cast a net into the ocean and pulled it up. Nets weren't introduced until UO:R.

I mean, if Yoda wants to spawn krakens as a event monster once a month...that's up to him. You are asking for something that wasn't a normal spawn to be normally spawned.

Your image got blocked for hotlinking, Dagon.. :P I'll help ya out.

Actually Dagon, the UO:R kraken you posted, that's the Kingdom Reborn kraken, the newest version. Another way to tell this is the filename itself, kr at the end for Kingdom Reborn. The UO:R one was still a blue corpser, it turned into the squid thing in Third Dawn. Technically the squid thing is most accurate to what a kraken is but I still didn't like it.. :/

Just out of curiosity, why do people want krakens so badly? I'm not being sarcastic or flippant, I'm genuinely curious.

The first time I saw krakens was on IPY, so I'm skeptical that they existed in era.

I never saw a Kraken in t2a. Never saw them til much later. I agree with them being in manual but not in game. Much like horses on the mainland.
