Post Mad Scientist respawn time
There is something wrong with the respawn, it has been 45 minutes now. Isn't the respawn time supposed to be 30 minutes?

Nothing wrong with the spawner, most boss spawners have a random spawn time. Sometimes it will spawn in less then 30 min and sometimes it will take longer then 30 min.

Hey Folks,

There is a few things that will interest you.

First off, with Trevor50's help, we've been maintaining a page containing what we hope there will be in the next patch. This page can be found at http://wiki.starsonata.com/index.php/Next_Patch.

Another thing that was talked about during the dev meeting and the dev-player meeting was the uber's lockout and spawn rates. Here is what was decided:
* Should DG ubers all be in Perilous space?
o Ubers will remain spread out as they are (some will be able to be blockaded as is the case this uni)
* Should we remove/reduce spawn times on all ubers with lockout?
o Uber spawns will be 30 minutes max.

This should happen relatively soon (doesn't require a patch, though we may need to patch some fixes to the lockout before changing the spawn).

There is also good news: Jeff is now working on the next C2 preview video. Hopefully he can release it this week.

There is going to be a ton of changes to C2's UI coming in very soon, and we hope to be able to show those off soon as well.

That's it for now,
-pip-



I do ubers on a regular basis. Apart from those who are instanced, Mad Scientist is the only one who seems to not be spawning after 30 minutes, he can spawn from 30 minutes - 1 hour, which is extremely annoying and I don't see why it is to be that way. And I must mention, I never, ever had a problem with any ubers apart from Mad Scientist, (and Corrupted Guardian and Emperor which used to be 1,5 hours respawn) spawning after more than 30 minutes before instances were put in.

The spawn time is set to 30 minutes but there's a random interval, because of that MS can respawn at anytime between 15 minutes and 45 minutes.

Been like that for years....The random interval was added a long time ago so it wouldnt be so easy to predict when a uber would spawn and camp it.

I find that a bit pointless now with lockouts etc...

Especially as anyone would just sit there for the extra 15minutes anyways.

Something definitely needs to be done about the Brute Force warp in Lunacy as well.

Move MS into a DG like Brute is in... Instance them both (not sure if brute is already), problem solved.
