 I had all but given up on getting my Singing Short Sword and have in fact done the 1.5 prequests and pretty far along on getting the 1.5 when  friend told me that she had some items in the bank she was going to destroy if I didn't need them for the epic.  Well after going through all that and MQing things I am to the point of hailing the Undead Bard and finishing it up.  We already know that she can solo Trakanon with her Druid so should be easy right?

Well there's been something odd happening.

We went into Seb before I was ready and low and behold the UDB spawned.  We went over to take a look when we got an /ooc ORDERING us out of the zone from a group if people from an uber guild saying that they were there first and we were trespassing on their camp. Apparently they were claiming the entire zone.  Well we left as we really didn't have anything to do there but we found it curious that they happened to show up at the time the UDB spawned.

At any rate after a long near overnight camp at about 7 this morning UDB spawned again.   My friend sent me a text message telling me to get online and she went to see that her son was ready to go to school.  When she looked back again she was dead at the banish point,  there were some members of a different uber guild in the zone who left shortly there after.

Guess my question is this,  is there some other quest that involves ganking the UDB? There seems to be a pattern developing here as we've also went to Seb around the time we'd thought UDB should have been up to find the entire zone wiped and no bard.

The other quest involving the UDB is to spawn him for loot to sell in the bazaar.  That's it, just people being rude (potentially hacking to get there fast, potentially just farming) and taking the spawn you needed.  If you asked, they'd probably let you loot the guts just to get you out of their hair, but that kinda takes the fun out of killing him yourself. 

Ya many people camp Trak for his loot to sell in the bazaar.  I was killing named in the zone not too long ago for tribute when I was technically KSed.  I ran up and killed all the adds on the platform.  As the last one dropped some necro ran past me and spawned Trak, used the corpses I dropped for WTD and killed him.  The guy would not reply to any tells and was /annon to hide his guild (/guildstatus is a wonderful tool).  He promptly looted everything including guts (which luckly I didnt need) and gated out.  All I have to say is some people are morons.

 Ok, I'm a terrible soloer, or at least I'd imagine I am, as I've always grouped.  But what level can a bard solo Trak?  Its hard for me to even imagine such a thing, as when I played last, I was a mage, lvl 60 (that was the cap), and Trak was a raid event =)  Any tips would be great, as that is my final step for 1.0, which I just want to use for milestone purposes and headway towards 1.5.  So many goals right now, its hard to keep trak (bad pun, I'll stop now).
