enemies not (re)spawning ?

[p00se2]

iv been to the 2nd area and sunken city

iv been back in the first area to find some enemies

but there is nothing here besides a few random small dog type enemies
i surf around for 20 40 minutes
i interact with anvil
i fast travel
still nothing spawns

its like the spawn trigger gets disabled after you kill an enemy group too many times
( like 5 times )



not sure if bug or just wild design decisions

ye im having same problem, i need 2 last spells or mods but the spawns aint spawning at all ... the conjurer and the menders are the ones been a hassle to make them spawn ...

[p00se2]

id like to believe this is a bug
because the actual design decision to destroy your gameworld by removing enemy spawn just boggles the mind way too much


spend more time in area 3
went back to area 1 and found no enemies of any kind

yeh same

game itself is pretty fun
but when you cant enjoy the combat because there are no enemies
all you can do is surf (to a better game )

Had the same problem, once you move on to the next location following the main questline, the previous one becomes empty. Unfortunately it looks more like an intended game design feature than a bug. Which nevertheless should be corrected in the next fix/patch (IMO).

The good news is that the last zone (the Black Alms) retains the consistent spawning, even after beating the game. Also, this is where you will find Conjurer - its spawn area is in the swamps.

On the other hand, Mender took me the longest to acquire its Essence Stone. The only way I found to spawn it is in the Watcher's Fury event in the Monsalar - Wildlands zone. The trick is that there is only one at a time, accompanying the Scrotur, which is not guaranteed to spawn every time anyway... I kept killing Mender (respawns after some time) while constantly avoiding Scrotur. After far too many attempts it finally paid off.

BTW, the Watcher's Fury events (in Caladrias, Monsalar-Wildlands, Black Alms) are really good spots for farming at least some Essence Stones and testing different builds. Especially that they have different enemy pools, especially Greater and Colossal Wraiths.
