Unique
From Silkroad Addiction Wiki
Uniques are the bosses within the Silkroad Online World. They usually tie in with the mythology of the period in some kind of way or tie into the enviroment. We currently know of 8 Uniques.
In the game Silkroad, there are a number of unique monsters that are very powerful and similar to "bosses" in other computer games. They spawn in designated areas every 6-8 hours. When they do spawn there is a server-wide message indicated that the unique has spawned. When fighting a unique, they will spawn their own monsters (champions, giants, and elites) whenever the unique monster's health hits a certain point. When killed, the unique monster will drop a good number of items and gold, depending on the level of the player who killed it, and a server-wide message will appear with the name of the character that killed it.
Currently in the international version, the unique monsters consist of Tiger Girl (Chinese, level 20), Cerberus (European, level 24 quest available), Ivy (European, level 30 quest available), Uruchi (Chinese, level 40), Isyutaru ( Chinese, level 60), and Lord Yarkan (Chinese, level 80). Future unique monsters are planned to be added to the international version, such as Shaytan (level 90) and Medusa (level 105). Other possible additions may be Roc - A unique from an event in another version of SRO (tSRO). Also, with the addition of the Chi'n Tomb unique monsters (7 in all, roughly) there will be much more coming with the level cap 100. Along with the unique: Medusa (level 105). Unfortunately for players of lower levels, there are usually very high level characters standing around waiting for the Uniques to spawn. When they do, they are often killed by higher level players, before lower level players even have a chance to see them. Many have asked for level restrictions on players who can kill the uniques.

Roc is the strongest Unique at the moment. He only spawns in KSRO, at a special area. But he spawned already in other versions of SRO at some events.
Hunting Times
Spawn Times
Currently there is not accurate way to know when a unique will appear but a time tried true method is the 3hour spawn. Unique do not actually always spawn 3hours after they last died but they will not appear under 3hours so this gives us a rough guide to work with. I myself have always tried to make it more accurate but keeping track of what times they appear on my computer this will give me a rough guess to when they are more likly to spawn for example
On Venus Uruchi is often due at 11:00pm GMT but has never spawned to my knowlage until after 00:00am GMT now this gives you a closer guide to when he will appear saving you time waiting.
There is also rev6 but this is not a tool more just stats, you can use this and you can use it to help but do not be fooled into thinking the unique will appear when they say it will, stick to the 3hour rule and be ready for what ever happens.
Uniques can spawn late too so dont be shocked if they appear 2hours+ after you though or missed a spawn totally.
Unique Maps
When searching for a unique you must keep in mind to hit as many points as possible in the shortest amount of time. Keep in mind that if you are low level relative to other people hunting this unique you will need to hit as many spawn points as possible that are not camped.
