What server?
The only difference I notice is that there are no more crimson drakes near where the piles are.

Hail Guest! Please read the new announcement concerning the upcoming addition to Stratics. You can find the announcement Here!
I apologize I was reading their post thinking they were talking about playing on ATL.
When Draconi was here I played on TC a lot. He knew how to make the game fun. Many items were from his testing on TC.Or test center
Ya know to test things
Crazy how many "good things" come out of it when the people responsible for making the changes actually log in to the game to play
I agree. From what I can tell the lag is basically just from the amount of people in the same location and the number of spell effect graphics being shown. There are non-stop Reapers / wildfire / lightning strikes / thunderstorm / wither effects going on simultaneously every second. That said, Origin which did have the same lag issues on first day of release is running fine now that everyone has migrated to ATL
No they just are not making the glob of mobs begin. Until they group up, everything is spread out. LS was like that until someone in chat told us to get in a group. Then the glob began.I agree.

Ppl gonna be mad if you get the glob taken away. How are you not getting drops? Not casting?

Yes we get the *glob* as you call it.
We call it the grinder.
Still the drop rate did go down. I did not participate in the grinder the first few days because the lag made my game crash.
Now it's fine, but now the drop rate...at least for me...has gone down. I do not use potions.

They call it something else on LS. I can not remember what. I have no idea how they made it appear. I was running around killing the individual stuff, getting no drops, and decided to go check it out last night and it was there.

There seems to be a bit more spawn in that area where the hole is in the rock wall just west of the entrance. If you get a few people and start luring a few mobs tha way it seems to jump start the spawn...seems the more you kill, the more start spawning sort of like a champ spawn.
I think there is an instant respawn at that point for each mob that spawns there… some of them just end up lured or wandering into other parts of the dungeon. If you’re killing there and there isn’t much spawn, you need to find and kill the mobs so they respawn. Conversely, you can select which mob you don’t like and lure it away and it won’t respawn as long as no one else kills it (great for luring away the dismounting treefellows).
On Atl it was all but impossible for me to get drops yesterday, which I figured was due to the sheer number of people. On LS last night, with a few glorious fortune potions, I ended up getting 300-some drops - started the day with 96 (grabbed the quiver before logging on the first day of LS farming) & ended it with 429.

Well according to Kyronix, they did not change the drop rate, but they did change the spawn areas.
his explanation as to why there is literally no spawn anywhere but the entrance....why they can't fix that is a mystery.

They DID fix all the spawn being at the entrance. His post is in response to feedback on that fix

i meant why it's ONLY at the entrance and practically nothing anywhere else.
Most of the rear dungeon looks like this...
They moved a little more into the middle of the main area but not much.
Just ran through the middle...
Every spawn was a drake, dragon, Greater Dragon or wyvern EXCEPT for one lone paragon treefellow...
I guess the Fey are afraid to go too far into the depths of the dungeon lol.

The spawn area and the water ele areas always looked like that. 1 person could run the route and after 1 run there would be just 2 or 3 things to kill. The 2nd and 3rd floor ramps have spawn.
There is a pile? I was just there and could not see any pile.

Yeah but they said spawn regions have been updated......it looks like they just took a lot of it away lol...throw some fey spawn in the middle, a few in the back....well a few more!
I am just wondering why they can't temporarily add a few more spawn points inside the dungeon.

I could have swore we were getting one going in that back cave when I ran in. You were there. I thought that was a good pile spot.
I agree, just hadn't taken off like the previous ones, so not sure if it is as feasible.
This is exactly what I'm talking about... everywhere besides that NW corner near the second floor entrance is practically empty.
That seems broken to me.
Then it was "broken" on release. Kyronix just told you he can not make other areas spawn more mobs because of whatever reason.
Playing the dungeon without the pile nets me about 3 to 5 drops per hour, Just like the others did. 9 to 12 with luck.
Level 2 has a nice evenly spread spawn and is pretty much where all the fun lives (at least on ATL anyway). You'll die a bit more, but it's way more enjoyable than sitting in the lag pile spamming like a robot. Just mind the paragons lurking by the door left by those fleeing for their lives (although personally that's where I've been hanging out with my mystic bard).
Drop rate is probably not as good? No idea to be honest - been having too much fun to care.

Yup the ramps are fun. You can get lvl 3 too crowded with paragons but that's the game.
Also my experience.

Yup tonight since you called Kyronix in to look at the pile, Everything is empty like it was the first two days.
WTG Thanks!

Yep....now it's horrible the opposite direction lol. I was happy that I finally got a spellweaving 3 so I could help with the grinder and now there's no spawn! :/
We treid that on Origin exactly there... it kinda started, but the spawn was soooo slow that it would fizzle by itself... pathetic! ant it was just 4 ppl... standing there , and nothing to kill... (even with all of us running around to be agroed and lure the whole cave, it simply wouldn't gold.. definitely not fun.. with 2 potions I got 5 drops in 2 hours, FFS!
Well thank @Keven2002 for telling the devs to look at Atlantic.
The dungeon is just like it was If the pile was never started. The only place mobs spawned was by the ramps.
Basically yall have to get the 4 of you organized and just kill by the ramps, go up and down as a team, and hope you can kill the paragon shadows. There are no GD there unless dragged.
We were doing EXACTLY that... 4 of us knowing to stay together by the ramp... ... 2 minuts later, no monsters.. we moved instinctively together.. next tiny cluster of monsters.. 1 min later gone, nothing spawning.. move, kill 7 things in 30 secs.. empty... it was a snooze-fest... even luring the paragons in, to do something, even if it was just dying... .. they should've left small shards alone as it begun
