Despawning enemies?
Am I hallucinating or are there any enemies that can despawn from a map? If so is there a limit per map?

They despawn after 10 kills I guess. Maybe 15.

If you kill them 12 times they despawn.

For farming purposes, If you join the covenant of champions or burn an ascetic they come back.

So its possible to make a whole map empty?

It's fair to add that when you burn an ascetic, the area becomes more difficult. I.e. NG becomes NG+, NG+ becomes NG++ and so on, and when you eventually go into a New Game+, the area where you burnt the ascetic will be a + harder already. i.e. for example NG++. It caps at NG+7 I think, i.e. an eighth ascetic will only respawn enemies and not raise the difficulty.

It is. But if you plan to do that get a life instead, worth more in the end.

No I just thought the game put a limit to how many enemies can de spawn per map. Wasn't thinking of emptying maps

I've heard of some people emptying the map, just to say they did. I don't think it's worth it either.

The crappy thing is that the map can't be *truly* emptied thanks to the undead crypt and maybe one or two other spots that have spawning enemies.

If you need to grind for a specific item/set, you can go into the Champions Covenant and it will temporarily disable despawning. I'm not sure if it beings back already despawned enemies though.

It does. They have to have a respawn-counter though, stuff that simply doesn't respawn after you killed it once doesn't keep respawning in the CoC.
