Rats don't count.
Scorpions don't count.
Wolves don't count.

It's only the rat-men which make the spawn progress. If you don't see the rat-men, then someone hid the reknowned rat men.

If you're killing rat-men for over an hour, then you are lucky that you don't have to kill the reknowned.

From the upcoming (now on TC) patch notes:
Fixed an issue with being able to kite Renowned Mini champions away from the SA Champ spawns, these mobs are now leashed.
The good news is they're fixing it. The bad news is it isn't fixed yet.

Does a sampire with a soulseeker and vermin slayer tear it up with the rats down there?

My sampire is on an account that isn't activated for SA so was thinking i might eventually have to activate it to gather some resources.

Also, is there any chance the price of SA might go down anytime soon?

Im just a Swordsman but yes with a soulseeker and vermin slayer i can stand still and clear the place, apart from the reknowned as they dont have a slayer vunerablilty and also about 90k health ;)
All i do for them is lure them upto the Slasher and let them fight it out with eachother. the rats have never won :)

Sometimes the renown get dragged a long way from the spawn site, iv seen them ALL over the place, not unlike the fairy renown which i have seen as far out of place as the rat spawn itself.
If new rats arnt spawning, there out there somewhere.

Cool. Might just create a basic swords char on my SA registered account in that case, save me the $30 ;)

Yes. A single sampire can take all of the spawn creatures and the renowned rat at the same time with a radiant scimitar. For the tinker rats use a wep with disarm, disarm all of them, then switch to the scimitar and take them out.

Heh, I don't even bother with the disarm.

Or the sampire. Soul seeker has enough life leech that you should never have a problem.

If a sampire dies down there ever, then something went seriously wrong.

You come here to complain about missing mini champ bosses and then admit to the same behavior which is causing the problem?

That takes the cake.

Nope, i allways lure it up and loot after the Slasher has killed it. It would make no sence for me to leave it up their alive as its the lower spawns that i want and they dont respawn till he's dead.

Not quite. It's one thing to lure to Slasher and watch them fight it out till the renowned is dead. That doesn't halt the spawn, in fact it ensures it will continue. It's quite another to go park it somewhere and then leave, so no conflict takes place.

I sincerely hope the new leash is way shorter than the distance to the slasher. Anything further than say Sutek is too far.

I find a Pixie swatter with its 75% hit poison area is extremely affective. Can clear the ratmen spawn in just a few mins. FYI Pixie Swatter is a UBWS :)

if you can't kill the renowned you ought to fight elsewhere. he's not that tough, just takes some time.

I go there a lot, if i'm in a hurry, i mass drag 'em all up to the fairy dragons, green ones, archers, etc., otherwise I use whirlwind attack, vermin slayer & soulseeker, +110 healing.
I agree the renown is not tough, just boring. I took a look around and couldn't find Any rat men, period, incl in slasher's area.
Is anything special ever on these, or goblin renowneds?

I think the renowned have a small chance to drop an arti other wise they are just there to reset the spawn.

New Rat rules are in.
The renouned dont wander to far now, literally only their own enclosure. Take them out and they recall back to their spawn point.

The fix is good on the minies. The issue I seen was plp farmed the lower spawn and just went to another leaving the renown. There are enough champs down there they could cycle around and fill thier hunting time. Problem comes when Manny Moe and Jack come through doing the same and drag the renown about. With the leash the hunting style will remain. Just have to kill the boss for a respawn that they will gladly help with till boss spawns.

just went down to the cavern on napa. found the ratman archer renowned out of his section, hit him a few times and he went back to his area. i finished killing him, np. but the other two spawns are broken. plenty of rats and wolves around, but not a single ratman anywhere. with the new fix in, this can't be a luring-away issue, what's going on?

if you had to hit one to get him back to where he needed to be maybe the others are still out there somewhere ... or maybe, the spawner doesn't recognize they are not spawned, and think they are still there ... hmm or mmmaybe..... i don't know
