Keepers of the City respawn?

[-amicitia-]

I'm at already the Finale chapter, missing Nunchaku and Pyrodancer base weapons to create their Ultimates, but these two specific Keepers of the City won't respawn. Anybody know is there timer/chances for them respawning?

I don’t believe they respawn. Reason being that each of them provide a set reward upon defeat. You can get certain gear pieces through them like the riche crown and the tier 5 maracas for the best geodancer weapon.

They respawn exactly 10 minutes after being killed. (Tested this by killing the enemy for Desperato revolver that spawns next to the ABC store in little japan, then going across the street to the park where the oka charger is) and every time without fail once it hit 10 minutes you would see them respawn from across the street.

But the respawn system seems to be super buggy though since sometimes they just don't respawn (seem to happen if they attempt to respawn while you are really far away from where they spawn) best way I found around that was saving nearby where they spawn, then going title screen and reloading the game again, even that wasn't an 100% fix at times though.

Interesting. I’ll have to test this later. I could’ve sworn some keepers I’ve defeated never came back.

It doesn't work for me. Tried waiting for 2 days in real life time, reloading the game and save files, changing to day and night, still the same.

I think they only respawn in premium adventure mode? I'm not that far yet but they sure ain't respawning

I believe you are correct - they respawn in Premium Adventure but not during the regular game. :)

Thanks, japantourokudayo and Karlington, they do respawn in Premium Adventure mode. Still missing one weapon left because they doesn't want to drop it.

Actually they do respawn in the regular game, I beat the desperado revolver boss at the ABC store before you return to japan (chapter 8?) and now that I've swapped back to Hawaii (chapter 9) they have respawned and I got the desperado revolver

Yeah, in Hawaii when enemies jumps in levels through story progression, the mini bosses respawn. Their levels dont increase though.
