Today's Patch

[hiyawathadan]

I noticed this in todays patch:

"Tuned down the rare NPCs in Mechanotus. This is a first pass, and other changes to the difficulty of these and other such NPCs may happen in the near future."

Does this mean that possibly "A reaver" will spawn more or less often for us sublime questers?

[oerin trubble]

i read that as a reduction in difficulty rather than a change in spawn rate.

I read it as that as well, but more towards the RARES - those that drop loot - and not the reavers.

I think they mean that the named mobs will be easier, and closer to the desired difficulty. It was taking mini-raids of 2-3 groups of people geared beyond that level of content to kill what should be single-group mobs.

Bah. They should have left it. Things difficult to kill are good.

And buried in the middle of "Quests and Tasks" section:

Removed the expansion restriction from the Exalted Impressions task.

Reavers still rare - much more common spawn in the blimp than on the field (this is after 12 hours straight, post patch, to finish off Sublime task, woowoo )

Not sure if it was an abberation, but porous loam / exquisite marrow was dropping with more frequency than i would have expected, in the blimp, post patch.
