Dread Enemies
Dread, Vet, whatever - the level 15 enemies that spawned in random areas have they been removed from the game?

I did a few random searches for them over the last week or so and it just seems like they are always dead and gone.

Someone told me that they wont respawn unless you kill all of them in an area first, is that true?

idk about that last bit. i think they all have their separate respawn timers after death.

maybe try changing blocks a bunch of times. i know for sure you can find a dread that way.

and honestly there's no reason for people to really be hunting/farming dreads rn cause dread keeper II only gives pot floor, not actual pot

Afaik, Vet Enemies spawn every 30 minutes. I've been doing runs for them at the moment and they spawn pretty consistently.

Ah it might be that they're being hunted on a tight rotation then. Yeah I haven't been so determined as to change blocks for them.

It's basically that I used to see them casually but I haven't spotted not a single one in the last week - even the tougher ones.
No they're still around. Earlier this early morning i've seen a couple gigantix + vet pairs at south aelio.

yeah no need to be farming dreads rn. dread keeper augs are barely worth it. i mean what else do you get from dreads? i feel like im missing something.

due to tests, 2% pot floor is equal to 1% flat pot in power. and honestly, even if you stack nothing but pot floor right now you wont even come close to being as strong as you were if you'd just went full flat pot.

They might taking some time to look for, but they do spawn. It's something to do for me while I wait for Gigantix Spawns.

That guide has the locations of the spawns, but unfortunately it doesn't say what spawns where.

people are farming them as they drop augment items unique to them.. if your needing them for the sub quest, you can also hop between blocks and rooms and hope to find one where they are up...

another alternitve would be to try and tag along with someone farming them.. 30 minutes seems about right and reasonable i cannot confirm this myself howerver

typically if i see one up and people fighting ill jump in too as im at a point where grinding/farming for the future as thats the only real endgame right now

Being out and about in the world today in game,, i noticed one up... started fighting... 3 others showed up.. same alliance... same main/sub class same weapons same units, same augments.. said some hateful things that dont need repeating, in VERY Broken english,...

while one encounter isnt enough to confirm anything... but every "rmt operation" red flag was raised... this is on ship three, i wont say anything in regards to identifying that alliance, to prevent witch hunting if in fact im mistaken. But considering there a semi-limited mob, with set spawn behavior and drop an item unique to them in the "Dread keeper" augment (which is pretty meh)... its something i think everyone across all ships should keep an eye on.. as theres to many red flags to not be suspicious.

thankfully its a crappy augment. considering we cant see whos selling them in NGS. So its safe just to avoid buying them, to avoid potentially giving meseta to rmts

RMT bots can't really do combat, especially vs veteran enemies. Bots make their living farming trash mobs and gathering resources usually. And they generally won't have a user around to talk to you directly, some of them will just have an automatic reply to certain things or log out automatically when engaged.

More than likely it was just some tryhards.

They wernt bots... judging by the fact they were all the same class and gear... it was likely a single player using some sort of Remote Command input... like i said what caught my eye was the following things
#1 All three of them had the same main/sub class
#2 all three were using the same weapon and units... with the exact same augments
#3 the incredably broken english very reminicent of native chinese speaker, who doesnt actually speak english.

like i said i could be wrong thus is why im not naming them, dont need any witch hunting.

But the fact they are semi-limited spawn mobs.. and are the only source of the dread keeper augment. ontop of the fact that many players are complaing of them "never being up" Across what 80 blocks with a potential indefinite number of rooms/layers spread across 3 servers... i mean tehres no way its just small handful of people keeping them down 24/7...
Further more the augment itself isnt even good, so there wont be much demand for it...
No, what they are attempting to do is control that 1 augment on the market in hopes to establish a foothold in the economy, by preventing other players from being able to get them from any means but by buying them.

Even worse is in NGS we cant see which player is running a given shop, So its something to keep in mind.. and a word of caution about buying the dread keeper caps from player shops...

The red flags are there and check virtually every box , but like i said im going to further invetigate this and watch at least here on ship 3..

I mean your elitest augment i cant take as more than neutral arugment, i mean they did have level 20 subs, and sub level doesnt really provide anything, But on the other hand, if they are "elitests" though, they already know dread keeper is crappy, so why waste the time farming it.

You mean multi-boxing? It's possible, seems like a waste of effort considering the rewards tho. lol
