NPC Spawn Issue: Everfrost newbie mob on laughable 13 minute respawn timer

[Jimjam]

I'm not going to look into how it works/worked on live, as I know the respawn systems of newbie yards were much more dynamic to the degree that this project doesn't cater to perfectly emulating the mechanics, but aims to reproduce the experience.

There is a spawner* for newbie mobs (gnoll pups, bear cubs, spiderlings, etc).

It is close to snowflake / bryndin mcmill's camp.

This spawner has a 13 minute respawn time. No wonder Everfrost struggles to support more than a couple of newbie characters.

That is really not suitable for a newbie zone, this needs to be fixed before a new server launches. I suggest the respawn being far more frequent. Easy fix.


If players sitting on a newbie respawn is a worry, either randomise the respawn spot between 3 places or link the mob to 2 other mobs and make it so none of the 3 will respawn until all 3 have been slain.


* I actually believe there are a couple of spawners around here with a similar time.
