Season change and the supreme pop

Since a recent patch the supreme pop is not working as it used to spots do not refill after season change like they did previously.
it now takes a server reboot to refill the spots after a season change.
this is not exactly living the saga is it, GF please fix this asap as its very annoying.
Season change has become meaningless, (apart from supernodes which seem unaffected)

harv
ps waiting for reboot :/

Are you sure they´re not just randomized, like the Bosses?
Like wished for by so many lately?

Supremes never popped on given seasonchange,there is a timer for them.
If there was a reboot in end of summer, and next pop should be in winter,
then you need to figure the timer
Sometimes they pop in the middle or the end of their season

from my experience supreme's (at least the easy dug spots) would always refill for season change.
now that would always mean on the day of next season change the spot would be refilled.
now thats not the case and they don't refill until we get a reboot.
thats not the same pattern to my mind. now digging after season change has become pointless u need to wait for a random force such as a reboot which should have no bearing on living the saga surely.
especially from a IC point of view.

Hmh, last seasonchange I found supreme mats just as usual...
Strange...
And I´ve experienced the "middle of season" phenomenon too. Even befor the patch...
So maybe its a lokal Arispotle thing?

There is a downtime after a source has been dug for respawning the limited sup + ex content, This was not apparent for quite a while due to the frequent reboots. now with less reboots the pattern falls to the old intended method. It is actually only coincidental due to reboots or spread seasons that sups 'pop' at season change, The season itself does not respawn the mats. Ofc the actual timer has to be learnt

I have found supreme mats to pop now and then, baring the spot was already depleted. And now I've witnessed a boss pop next to the spot where I was harvesting

It did spook me at first, but it sure was nice to see it happen randomly

Thats not been the case for god knows how long (seriously, how long ago did that get changed?) as everyone has already stated the only mats that pop supreme on season change are those in supernodes, those which where not dug since the last reboot (FD zun pops in spring, if the last reboot was in winter, supreme will pop) and if the spot has been left long enough to refill
