Kaisan

[Tenebris]

So i've been farming nemesis drops lately and noticed that kaisan takes waaaaay to long to spawn and sometimes he doesn't spawn after 3 dungeons, compared to other nemesis spawns that requore you to clear roughly 1 dungeon worth of mobs to spawn, is he bugged in a way or it ok ?

Dunno. Do you need to kill certain amount of enemies or certain amount of infamy-points-past-limit worth of enemies to spawn Nemesis? Feels like the latter.

Depending on how many heroes I stumble upon and whether Eldritch Totem spawns, it takes anywhere from middle part of Tomb of Heretic to entrance part of Court of the Magi for him to spawn for me, if rushing that particular roguelike dungeon.

For me he spawned maybe too often when I just casually make my path through Tomb of Eldrich Sun and Astral Fields before Korvaaaaak

what dungeons are you clearing?
i feel like Kaisan pretty reliably spawn on Tomb of the Heretic runs or Sunward Spire

you can't just clear small tombs and expect him to spawn everytime, even the other Nemesis don't do that
Dangerous Domains/challenge zones with mutators and skeleton key dungeon increase the spawn multiplier counter

I was doing Temple of Ateph, Tomb of Sethan, and then Eldritch Gate back to back, and he wouldn't spawn sometimes. But then i tried Sunward Spire and it was indeed much more reliable. It;s just that Zantarin spawns much faster like halfway through first floor of Tomb of Archon Barthollem, Grava spawns from nor clearing fully Cinder Wastes, Aleksander took hardly clearing 2/3 of Burning Cellar. And then there is Kaisan who takes most time to spawn for some reason -_-

Ateph is just a normal tomb/not a dangerous domain, so you get no bonus there, and since it's "tiny" it's like slaughtering a couple dozen enemies in the open map
Eldritch Gate stretch is also pretty small/not that densely populated, so even if it has a mutator it's still not a lot it adds total, which could explain the unreliability overall you felt, since it's small+small out of 3 😅

I've no idea what the the potential min or max kill count requirement is, but given the fluctuation it can have even on a ToH run i don't think it's surprising it vary a bit on the route there

It's just weird that i was getting him to spawn quite often when i farmed for gargoyle waist, like 2/3 runes he would apear and and then he just stopped, i guess i was just getting lucky :P
