Prison Guard Prophecy

The Prison Guard Prophecy says, in short, Kill a powerful Axiom Thunderguard, get a unique. the Thunderguards are only in Chamber of Secrets, Level 2. I've full cleared 4 times, and no luck. Is it random that the prophecy will be enacted in the zone, or is it bugged? I assumed it was like all the others where you go into the correct zone and its active the first time.

Thanks for help and clarification!

Bumping to look for an answer.

The "Kill a stron xy-type monster to get a unique" Prophecies are always active, though not visible. Their effect only activates (you get a specific unique) once you kill a rare monster of that type. Basically it's only dependant on the rare monster spawn chance.

I have this prophecy as well, and it says axiom thunderguard. From what I've seen on the wiki, those only spawn in the upper prison as the ones that spawn in sins are called sparking mages.

I completed this one yesterday, You have to kill stuff in chamber of sins level 2. Its the "black electric mages" just need to find a powerful one. Good luck searching =) as you won't get a prophecy popup saying hes in that instance of CoSL2.

axoim thunderguard spawn in both upper prison and chamber of sins 2... but they can't be rare in upper prison I dont' think. Additionally, axiom thunderguard dont' ALWAYS spawn in sins 2, so it may take a few zone clears to find one.

Exactly, Took me MULTIPLE resets to find him.

Thanks for the answers all...I was thinking that the Prophecy would force spawn a Rare mob....good to know it doesn't!

It's the same with stuff like the Master Quests, Strongboxes and Crafting.

They occur the next time X event happens, regardless of where it is (Difficulty restrictions only, of course). Whereas, as you said, the other type of prophecies trigger randomly once you start a zone where it can apply to.

Just to clarify, Sparkling Mages are definitely different than Axium THunderguards, correct? I have re-instanced and cleared Chamber of Sins about 15 times now, and never seen a single Thunderguard, but have seen the SParkling ones every time.

Edit: Just saw a pack of Thunderguards now, but only white ones. Boy, I don't think this quest is worth my time, but I don't want to spend the5 coins to get rid of it.
