Ok. The DQs are not doing anything for me anymore. I am falling into a slump playing this anymore. I decided to see how hard it was to make a Tier 5 Hammer with out buying dots. Started by getting the easiest pieces first. Had enough to make TWO Inferno Activators. Got all the buffs. Still only one try worked, the other FAILED. Not to mention that after I had gotten all the other buffs I needed to extract Amber Essense. I can't tell how far out of whack that seemed, to get those.

Now here I am 2 and a half hours after the last Baron SE was killed. I have already searched every square of Three Areas where it's supposed to be. Nothing.

It's a shame. I always felt this game, even after 9 years of playing. Had great appeal to me. Now, I am not so sure. Unless I log in, just to start 100 stam smacking players. Just to please all the PvPers, who are the only on who use the forums anyway. What else is there.

So yeah, how often do the SEs Spawn? Thanks

Baron spawns on 6 different maps, not 3 so there may well have been some active on the 3 you didn't search

 

SE's spawn, like titans, irregularly. One can spawn immediately after being killed or it can be 5-6-more hours later.

 

You want 'em, you look for 'em - and if they're not there, ya look later and hope that in the interim, no-one else has killed 'em.
 

I've had instances in the past where an SE has been killed on a map that I've JUST finished sweeping - them's the breaks.

I have a memory of a fairly recent admin post on the forums saying (most) SE's spawn randomly within 2-8 hours.

 

Also, to expand Pardoux's comment, one SE spawns in each of 6 realms. So there could be 6 available at any given time, but only one on any given map.

 

 

Edit: maybe that was 1-8 hour spawn time. The log is currently showing Baron kills in Appela Mountains (North) at 6:22 and 7:36.

Duh. No kidding, really?

Yes. I know. Obviously you didn't catch the sarcasm in my post. I guess you caught neither my discouragement or lack of enthusiasm for continuing to play.

yes I understand that there are more realms. As a matter of fact. one was killed in a Realm I didn't search. Just seven minutes after I posted. Maybe I was out of stam. Or maybe after taking the time to search three. I didn't want to waste any more time searching more. Not knowing when the last few were killed or at what time. Because the list only goes back as far as 10. But there's already another post about that so I digress. My thing is the PVP players want improvements to the game and stuff added. And the mechanics changed to benefit the gameplay. I'm thinking there are a lot of things that need to be changed, with the game mechanics. Like the consensus of most players on the Forums. In order to raise the player base. The Cows may want to make their game more playable if they wish newer players to stay more than a couple weeks or a couple months.

I remember right after the DQs were updated. Many players stated that they could not fathom killing LEs. Not unless there was an LE Event taking place. Many pointed out that there are some LEs in the realms permanently. Later, BG said in the forums that the permanent LEs Spawn rate had been increased. To match that of the SEs. I am simply saying. It to me, trying what I did. Seemed a little out of whack.

SE spawns are fine as they are. They've been this way since they were introduced and plenty of people have hunted them. Just because the Baron is useful again, does not mean they need adjusting to make them easier to get. They're fine.

 

As for the LEs, the NUMBER of spawns were increased, not the spawn time.

You win some, You lose some...

I do not want to even think about the number of barons I was killing without Fi and the number of drops I have simply fragmented...

If it was easy to get, we (players) would complain and when it is not easy we complain again...

 

Anyway the spawns are fine as they are.

yeah. I went back and found the post.

BG
"All of these Legendaries are always available. Based on player feedback, the number of them that spawns in a Realm has been increased. Bear in mind, Animal Mag does work on these guys."
