Helm's Hold spawn rate too high

edited June 2013 in General Discussion (PC)
In the tight quarters beyond the main gate, the fighting is absolutely insane. The mobs take a long time to fight and it's very easy to have 2 or 3 on you at the same time. Then when you'Re just about finished, another mob spawns on top of you!

It's not a very big issue but one I'd like to see addressed nonetheless.

    Helms hold is the first place you really get tested by normal mobs. I enjoyed it.

    I spend about an hour there whenever I run a new character through.

    • Hellfire Archmagi now spawn less frequently near the Old Dirty Dwarf Tavern.
    • Several spawns have been cleared out from frequently traveled pathways.

    Great to hear this as some parts can be frustrating on classes that have lower DPS and have trouble killing one set of mobs before another walks by or re-spawns.

    It's enjoyable for some time as I love the combat but I still believe it's too much. Walking around becomes a chore.

    Ugh. I just to Ebons Down and it's pretty much the same thing. I LOVE the challenge but not when gets this crazy. Wights can summon infinite rotters and having more wight spawn right in front of you is crazy. In a house for the Lights the Bonfires quest, I fought a group, looked at my items, went to the other room and the group came back.

    I think the spawns rate in general need to be reduced or not to have enemies spawn in certain locations when there is a player there. Else it makes soloing too difficult.

    Ah... the memories. Went through there (I'm a Cleric). No Astral shield. Only equipped with Astral Seal, the other At Will (not Lance of Faith), Chains of Light, Healing Word, and that AoE attack power with the word "Dawn" in it... and a LOT of potions. Nice amount of loot as well if you survive the onslaught long enough.
    *sings* "I like Gammera! He's so neat!!! He is full of turtle meat!!!"

    "Hah! You are doomed! You're only armed with that pathetic excuse for a musical instrument!!!" *the Savage Beast moments before Lonnehart the Bard used music to soothe him... then beat him to death with his Fat Lute*

    Go solo and its "welcome to the meat grinder". Go with a group and it becomes very enjoyable.
