One thing I noticed right away was in Vedas Plateau, one of my usual camps the mobs don’t seem to spawn any faster, they are just far more inconvenient now. Instead of spawning all at once in a large pack they now spawn 2 at first, then 3, then a couple more, then 5 etc etc, it takes 3min now for the entire group to spawn instead of them popping all at once. For me its actually been worse then before the ktos patch.

They didn’t increase the spawn rate. They just lie like they always does.
To complete a simple monster hunt of 10 quest, you still have run the entire map for kill of 9/10.
The more you complain, the worst they make it to, and then laugh at you.
Damn you IMC…

I’m really surprised people aren’t up in arms over this, basically they are all too distracted atm with the pvp and name calling in shout for an hr after every match to notice that IMC completely lied to us again.
I have seen no difference in spawn times and furthermore many of the spawns are even worse now. I don’t mean the field bosses, I mean small/medium trash mobs. Large packs now spawn staggered instead of all at once making farming even slower, almost like the new spawns were designed for chaplin bots using only auto attacks as to not get overwhelmed by a large group of mobs, wtf IMC…
I’m pretty sure it was increased. The way the spawns are actually based on a timer after the previous mob was killed instead of respawning them all at once every 2 minutes might make the respawn time seem slower if you clear slowly - because you’re just barely clearing the area before all the mobs respawn, so even mobs you killed 5 seconds ago respawn with the wave. But from grinding in demon prison district 2 since the patch it seems to me that you can now farm more efficiently while splitting the map.
Basically it makes grinding in highly contested areas more efficient and is a buff to fast clear speeds.
Spawn seems better to me. Getting higher exp/hour at Workshop compared to previously.
it must just be vedas plateau then b/c I literally can clear the entire pop set of 40+ mobs in less then 10seconds, double sissels, max peta, manamana t6 gems etc, its just in vedas they spawn staggered now no mater how fast you kill them, super annoying for speed farming, thx for the feedback though
Can we get some real data from the game’s files? Need someone to post what our current spawn check timers look like for various maps. Fact check please.
