I was running round zone spawning them with no luck and then i named called Boulder spawned so i decided to pull him for the hell of it and he ended up dropping it...
I haven't seen a lucid shard from them, but there is a rock near the NW corner of the lake that they spawn from. If you are shard hunting, you could pop him by going up to the rock and taking him out. POS 1742 POS 1530
You must know that a trap can only spawn one kind of creatures. So here is a location from a trap near to Scalet Desert entry for Stone Beasts: 280/-1466/5 Kill the Stone that pops out and camp on the stone formation until a Stone Beast re-spawns (~5 min).
I got one Perfect Acrylia Ore out of 3 Stone Beasts (that was maybe lucky) and nothing else.

Err I don't know if this is the same item as the BST epic. I got one today. Here are the stats (which differ from BST epic item according to Allakhazam). It was titled Perfect Acrylia Ore, NOT Large Chunk of Perfect Acrylia Ore.
Perfect Acrylia Ore MAGIC ITEM LORE ITEM NO DROP WT: 5.0 Size: SMALL Class: None Race: None
This differs in name and weight and class/race from the Large Chunk used for BST epic (as listed in Allakhazam).
Hello ! I saw this guy 2 times in the south west corner of the zone if it can help :) I chant kitt him : very high mag/fire/cold resists so the fight took some time...drop nothing for me... Good luck!
I went to the Grey today to mess witht the traps hoping I could just get one of these to spawn and I finally got one but when I uninvised to make pet I was jumped and had to zone. Then I cam e back and found a trap close to the SD zone after tripping some others and what do ya know Stone Beast spawned so i went inside tunnel made and buffed pet and attacked. This was a pretty long fight but I was lvl 55 and solo'd it fairly easy though I had some buffs from a raid earlier BoA and KEI, hit for a max of 136dmg had a lot of hps but it dropped nothing. so I waited near the SD zone for trap to reset and triggered it again and another swtone beast spawned this one was tuffer hit for 142max but I still had little trouble killing him and this one DID drop the perfect acrylia ore! So if you Beastlords have any doubts if the stone beasts drop the ore worry no more IT DOES.

These, like Boulder, Stonehand, a boulder fiend, and a boulderling, are ground spawn triggered when you walk over them.
If you are invis and travel from rock-top to rock-top you can find these triggers. Boulderlings and rockfiends always spawn in 2's and 3's and seem to be un-slowable. All triggered spawns de-pop after about 45 seconds.
If you wait for the boulderlings/boulder fiends to de-pop you may get a different named mob to pop there in it's place after a couple minutes. It seems that the trigger will disappear after 2 or 3 times activated. Sometimes a shimmering rockfiend will spawn in the cycle as well and they do not de-pop.
All in all it's an easy way to hunt these named in the zone. They don't agro if you are invis, so you can travel from trigger to trigger until you get the one you want to appear. Gotten some nice loot this way...

These seem to be much more rare than the Shimmering Rockfiends, and have almost NO Magic Resistances.
When I kill Shimmerings to clear a pull path near the zoneline, I usually get about 20% resisances with Draught of Jiva (MR-based spell, and incidentally the only DD spell I can get to stick against them.) On the Stone Beasts, I didn't get ANY resists.
Loot was... NOTHING, but I've only killed 3 or 4 of them.
At least on the Shimmerings, I sometimes (read: VERY REARELY) get Shiny Granite Pieces, or Shiny Granite Balls.
