Abias Nightmare Spawn

Author Content Date
What is the reason for Stiges and Swamp Beasts being at the Abias Nightmare Spawn? Seems really pointless and is very annoying being surrounded getting attacked while trying to kill mobs.. Kill them you lose %, annoying having to go freemode every time.. I don't think they really need to be there at all..

Suggestion:

Remove Stiges and Swamp Beasts from that general area, increase the Nightmare Spawn, it needs more Nightmares.. It's such a big area, you spend more time running around trying to find them than hunting, VOD gets very crowded at times we need an equal/comparable alternative spawn, Conti is good but we don't always have that option..

We all had to deal with it... try doing int a year or 2 ago..
Same issue then and I know it was worse then but we all dealt with it..

Deal with it like everyone else?..
Don't think this game is tailored for individual requests.. they just done a update got double stats weekend comming up..

Esoma had same layout.. not a problem..

Your solution is simple..
Get dex
Don't kill them
Wear Eva as you probs got min dam on nm
Lure them away

That's your issue sorted out of those solutions No?

Think you're overlooking the problem, its annoying as fuck, no one hunts there.. its a massive area, the nightmare spawn-rate could be upped stop vod being so crowded.. its not an individual request, its something that would benefit anyone doing int? Wear eva doing int? dafuq u talking about mate

Stiges and swamp beasts are lower down the evolutionary chain than nightmares, and Charles Darwin would agree with DR3. They belong there; it is the nightmares that don't belong.
Notwithstanding that, they also bring benefits to us hunters:
1. They relieve the boredom of grinding the nightmares. Like many, many before me I've been grinding my way from around 100 INT to my current 160, and I'll probably need to kill about the same again to cap out.
2. Apart from the INT gain, the only reward for killing nightmares is the frogs. But guess what: swamp beasts drop them as well. Okay, they don't drop many, but they drop far more swamp beast gems and they trade at 6 SBGs for 1 frog. I go out of my way to kill them.
3 I don't go out of my way for the stiges, but I get a perverse pleasure (that not many of my avid readers will appreciate) in seeing them drop and go through their death throes. For some reason, midges prefer biting me than most other humans, and I wake up in the night itching from the many bites. It gives me great satisfaction that a single swipe of my light sword has a larger version writhing in the dust.
Let them be, Donatello.

It's still annoying mate, massive area not enough nightmares for the area.. anyone genuinely trying to hunt stiges/swamp beasts for stats isn't going to be able to hunt there anyway lol, swamp beasts aren't as bad you have to be a bit closer to get aggro, stiges seem to come from offscreen, 3-4 stiges interrupting casting is just unnecessary.

There's 2 great spawns for BLG, abias and vod.. why can't there be the same for nightmares and people doing int? There's nothing interrupting/annoying people doing str/dex at BLG.. Why do swamp beasts/stiges have to be at a nightmare spawn?

I don't understand why some people get so butt hurt over a suggestion that isn't completely unreasonable and would benefit anyone doing int.. it's a bit weird lads chill out..

At LEAST, an increase of nightmares in the area would be ideal, upping the spawn rate there would stop VOD getting so crowded, more people could hunt in abias too due to the size of the area being much bigger..

Abias nightmares were used as a stepping stone onto vod nightmares because the decreased spawn meant you could hunt them at lower int.
