Named mob spawn rates :(

It’s not exactly a time gate, but it is a gate of your time.

Named mobs currently take far too long to respawn. Even with people grouping up together for objectives it’s still a 5-10 minute wait for some named mobs to respawn.

I do not recall this being a “feature” of vanilla.

Please Blizz take a good look at the respawn rate on your named mobs.

Here is one of the worst offenders I’ve noticed of poor spawn rate times.

This quest is an absolute joke to do as well, you have to wait multiple times for this guy to spawn up.

After waiting to get the quest, waiting to kill the named mob for the key and waiting for the quest giver to appear again for the escort it’s just way too much waiting around doing nothing only because respawns suck.

Fix it please.

Additionally it’s annoying that this new forum software will let me link this

but nothing starting with classic.wowhead… fix that too!

This is how it always was. Why don’t you layer hop if you hate the game

Yea, named mobs have always had respawn timers. The only difference is back then you didn’t have half the server doing the same quest.

If you want to pretend that the spawn times haven’t been tweaked and aren’t ever tweaked that’s fine.

It’s not like I recall it at all though. I don’t want to “layer hop”. I’m not concerned with the thing that everyone else seems to have a problem with. I’m okay with waiting some, but I’m growing concerned with how much idle time there is simply waiting for named mobs to appear again.
