increase spawn rates now that quests are where you intended them

Succubi and Incubi are difficult to hunt when you're alone on the map, but when multiple are farming them, they don't spawn fast enough.

    Zariel's Murder Board has issues in general. Hunting imps and whatnot is fine. They always spawn. Succubi, incubi, barbed, etc. are a PitA due to low spawn rates.
    I'm not looking for forgiveness, and I'm way past asking permission. Earth just lost her best defender, so we're here to fight. And if you want to stand in our way, we'll fight you too.

    barbed is plenty and often has multiple in a mob. To get Succubi, incubi, you need to actively killing mobs to have random chance for them to spawn. But it is not that bad if you know which mob they would have a chance to spawn within.

    Right now its almost impossible to complete some of the quests. Maps are just empty and not a mob in sight. They really Screwed us again

    IMO, it is a lot easier. I have been doing quests instead of BHE chase. Hence, I know where to go for each quest and how to prioritize them. I get my favor a lot faster now.

    Switch maps to a lower population one then

    I know where to go too. Thats how i was doing it from the start only doing bhes when they popped in my instance. With the stupid changes to the bhe everyone is doing the quests, and most maps are just empty of mobs. Its taking twice as long to complete the quests and you got idiots running up behind you just 1 shotting eveything before you get a chance.

    i also know where to go to farm the different mobs. the problem is there are a lot more people farming the same quests now, so its a lot harder to farm barluga or imps or succubi/incubi etc. jumping doesnt help because all the maps have at least 15 people on it (and it does look like most of them are running these quests). requests for +bhe has gone down A LOT.

    you do get more favours for each quest but it takes longer than before patch to complete each quest, so IMO you dont earn favours that much more quickly since patch from doing the quests alone

    i've also notice increased occurrences where people have killed part of a mob, the barbed devil or incubus or whatever, then ran off leaving the rest of the mob alive, so then someone else has to finish the job so a full mob can respawn.

    c'mon people, dont be selfish HAMSTERS, kill the rest of the mob, get a couple extra favours and help the mob reset for someone else.

    Yes and some try to steal the mob you are already hunting too. Hence, I always try to kill the target first before cleaning up the rest.

    BHEs should be fixed soonish, there was an unintentional change to the amount of tokens given out that would be split among all players who damaged instead of everyone getting the same number.

    It's rather cumbersome trying to kill Infected Manes -- of which there are 5. They don't spawn nearly fast enough and yet the chains they drop are a required component for all level 1 hunts.
