do you guys ever plan on fixing the spawn timers on the mobs in AV?
another AV weekend down the drain because games are lasting 8 hours, because the mobs respawn every 3 minutes. How hard is it to adjust the spawn timers, hard enough that it takes 2 months? Doubt it.

Nah, it's easier to just strap on a [new] or [duplicate] on every report on bugtracker, and never look at it again.

The OP is right, there is a problem. 8hrs of playing isnt the problem, its what can happen after the fix too.


BTW its 2 minutes not 3 minutes respawn time.


Nostalrius should consider investigating themselves and not waiting for other people to open an issue on the bugtracker.

the respawn timers in dun baldar can be adjusted very easiely, just put 30 mins to them.

its funny this is still a topic and still an issue. For what are you opening a private server if you are not willing to fix major bugs? Well you have to understand whats a major issue too, which i explained already some time ago. More people use Content A, less people use content B = major issue is A, because most people use content A

I have recorded a video from Alterac valley on retail (Warlords of Draenor) where i recorded how dun baldar npcs are getting killed and i keep showing the scorebored to show the respawn time and it lasted longer than 5 or 7 minutes and none of them respawned, i will post that video once i get my broken PC back. But is this evidence enough Nostalrius team? How else you want to proof it? Every other private server has it correct, you have modfied it yourself, i cant explain that to myself how this can happen and then denying to investigate.

Pre-nerf AV on a vanilla server is vastly different from retail. Any data you collect from WoD is mostly worthless here. You would have to find old videos on Youtube or Warcraftmovies, or something similar from the 2005 era. Or some information cached from the Internet Wayback machine, or maybe wowwiki.
It might be obviously broken, but without some solid evidence of a spawn rate they will probably be reluctant to make further changes unless it impacts the entire community & enough people complain. The time to bring this up would have been the PTR (or further AV tests.) The testing process on Nost has been flawed, but it's a process that they are at least aware needs to improve...

they respawned AFTER the gy was alliance controlled.. needs no evidence to see this is broken

another example https://report.nostalrius.org/plugins/tracker/?aid=2109 (1st report 2015-08-11)

rather publish new broken content to distract from old broken content :twisted:

I don't disagree with you.

the complains are in huge numbers, if you dont follow the discussions/complains about AV and specificly respawn timers then you shouldnt say this.

respawn timers arent shown in any wikis and wayback machines i already checked it all thats why there is no report about this, also you can use common sense here for comparing elite npc and 2 min respawn, this is common sense (regarding the game mechanics ofc) that u dont set 2min respawn for elites.

i can tell you with guarantee for 95% that u wont find the respawn timers for dun baldar and the respective npcs for the horde side anywhere.

There are things that are not changed since vanilla, just because there is WoD and vanilla content is 11 years older doesnt mean everything is different. If you search a lot for vanilla content u can find such things.

You know if you modify respawn timers to 2 min, you can modify it to 30min too. Now show me evidence that they should have 2 min. You cant, because for nostalrius its easy to say "give evidence or fix never", if they modify stuff themselves without evidence and show their fingers to the community ans ask the impossible. Thats how you win as a bad loser.
