Hey guys i would like people to confirm this.
The spawns in Grove of confusion are broken.
The mobs take ages to spawn and they spawn even when there is still dead mobs on the ground. If people could confirm this id be really happy
thx

Today we were hunting names and they take hrs to pop back, this really kills hunting in a high lvl team

I've found, when i'm trotting up to collect my cuttler reward, i'm all of a sudden surrounded by dozens of the little buggers. So yes...Confirmed.

I noticed this with Weebil and the GM that came to confirm indeed that Weebil was dead on ground and would not respawn said they have had reports of this. Weebil's poor remains stayed on the ground for hours and hours.

I, for one, am very happy about the wandering mobs. All about the realism.
I am also happy, that if a mob is not looted, that it stays a corpse for awhile. While that is more realistic as well, it is also safer for me

(dig, dig, dig)
This seems to be what many have asked for though, to break up the grind of hunting - here is your challenge. So those I consider more as "features" than bugs.
However, I do wish they would fix the rapid-target-switch bug that many mobs are exhibiting. We are learning to deal (avoid Yetins at all costs, have one tank, or keep taunt in reserve) but this needs to be addressed ASAP.
I miss the pet-able jug bug tho' - can't believe that something so harmless & funny was considered an exploit.

You guys think the devs will fix this, if not they made it so hard to lvl now almost impossible to get 250 in a full group

yeah its happening everywhere, but i think its alright.. it does add some realism and stop's the chain killing of named mobs. gotta feel sorry for the cute little named ones who wander into the wrong zone though.
and pretty please fix the melee bug, or maybe roll back that section of the patch if fix not easy.. its a lot worse on the starter islands than here.. was there this evening getting flattened by most things with 2 melee in team.

Slow spawn problem after reboot is known, but this now looks like a real problem again (they changed spawn time once before). I don't think this is the solution for fast leveling problem. They can beter fix melee/ranged/magic balance and make us all happy. This change will only bring advantage to ppl who already got 250 and other that now don't have a chance to get there.
