town teleport

[Carlos Spicywiener]

Why is it that sometimes when I teleport to town to drop off or sell my inventory, when I go back, all the creatures come back too? Boss fights get annoying when you have to fight them twice. Seems like a bug

Maps repopulate when you leave them, its how it works atm for good and bad, they might look to change it in the future.

All mobs respawn when you zone.

As for annoying boss fights.....you don't want more loot? 'Cause it seems like the best loot drops off bosses....as it should.

No. Maybe 50-60 percent of the time they do. I have played plenty to know this isn't working right

In this game areas you leave are repopulated when you enter them again. You have to explore them anew aswell.

I totally agree with you, this IS actually annoying. In Grim Dawn levels get repopulated after you shut down the game and this is ok for me. But fighting all over again just because you droped off your loot is tedious and does not feel right.

And the map should remain explored ofc.

That can't be true. I have town portaled and come back a few times and the creatures did not return. Maybe thats the bug

It's basically a standard, well known and accepted feature of arpg games, I'm not sure what looks like a bug to you.

Do you expect the entire game to be empty forever once you finish the campaign ?

No. But to have the map reset after being gone for 30 secs is weird. I remember playing in ea and the fog of war would reset too.

Doesn't matter how long you're gone, you switch zones = zones reset

Fog of war reset I'll give you that it's retarded since the zones aren't procedurally generated.

It happened to me a lot and I dont think its a bug, I think its how they designed the game. I left an area to sell some loot, came back from the town portal and had to not only kill the mobs all over again, I also had to re-do the quest i was on because that reset too. Maybe it is a bug when I think about it.

Maybe you shouldn't pick up every piece of blue and yellow gear you come across mate.

After level 30ish you should have decent gear and you should be able to go through 5-10 zones without filling up your inventory. Use loot filters and don't pick up junk it sells for nothing.

actually most items are worthless in terms of gold, it could be usefull maybe at start of a new cycle, when you have 0 gold at all

In Grim Dawn, enemy in the area doesn't respawn, unless you turn off the game and restart it. Yeah, it is weird to return to town to sell your extra gears after a boss fight, and return back to your portal and the boss will immediately respawn again. And sometimes, even the story scene/dialogues between characters will reset when you teleport. Anyway, I think there should be a few minutes delay for them to respawn at least.

One thing also that would be helpful is that if the fog of war doesn't get partially reset when you teleport to town. I am one of those people who would only feel ok to get to the next map once I completed a map. But using the town portal right now is partially resetting the map. I think if they fix at least the map/fog of war, the enemy respawn should be ok, because at least you know that you've been to an area and you don't need to fight again the enemies in that area.
