It’s just not spawning. I literally flew around zangarmarsh for an hour, with a player count of only 2 other lvl 70s in the zone at 6 am and only saw ONE swamp gas spawn. This is ridiculous! Even the wowhead comments from 2007 say that the spawns were bugged. It’s either that, or there are wallhacking bots farming and teleporting at every location. I don’t think that’s likely though when all the primals are about the same price.
I’ve never seen any of this. Servers are crowded and people are farming the hell out of everything right now.
I’m on a High pop realm and I slap on my goggles and fly around, in an hour I can suck up about 5-8 primals if that’s all that I focus on, so if it’s bots, report em, sounds like you’re on a really low pop which is odd for such few gas spawns, but if you are seeing bots it’s because it’s low pop so again just report, not much you can do outside of that.
