I’m often minding my own business trying to do a voyage but with the new phantoms and ocean crawlers are making islands very difficult to stay on for a while. Sea of thieves is more than 95% islands, so they should be places you want to go to. I’ve been playing since season two, and back then islands were relaxing-ish places to do a voyage and look at the view, only occasionally facing a skeleton hoard or two once in a while. But now even a capable fighter can be, at most enraged at least frustrated at the constant stream of enemies that you have to fight off while voyaging. Now there is a bit of luck involved and sometimes you will be able to relax for a few minutes, but the other day I was at thieves haven trying to do a voyage there but the enemies made it take hours and it was so tedious I eventually gave up. I think you could solve this by simply lowering the spawn rate of all monsters, or even make ocean crawlers be limited to beaches.
Fix enemy spawn rate on islands
I think they should bring in an item that works as bait and distraction. It can be a conch that lures enemies to the area where it is placed.
It'll be like a trident, common and runs out with use
That way people that pve will find them and be able to use them to keep them busy or can use it as a weapon of sorts to lure enemies to enemies

Go on...

So..they are Spawning up to kill you, as that is there job.
Sea of thieves is more than 95% islands
It more 90% Sea and 10% Island.

Yeah the Sea changed and now with the trouble that been going on, it starting to become Unsafe.
But now even a capable fighter can be, at most enraged at least frustrated at the constant stream of enemies that you have to fight off while voyaging.
I like the challenge myself, makes the islands less dead and 'alive' Also makes those boring voyages like X marks the spot more fun.
so tedious I eventually gave up
Okie? So you gave up instead of pushing forward. The villains won...good show.
I think they are fine. No need for these "relaxing" and peaceful voyages. If a Player wont give you trouble than the Mobs should. Balanced.@a-donkey5002 did I miss something? The spawn rate has been changed already a few times with the updates in about the last 6 months, two or three times. Now it's pretty good...not too much of them, but still enough to keep you busy
@timedsatyr79799 sagte in Fix enemy spawn rate on islands:
I think they should fix the spawn rates of pirates complaining for a fix on the forums
🤣Probably hard to programm that...
@schwammlgott Yeah I agree a good developer listens to their community this comes from everybody I talked to. the spawn rates are way too close together it would be nice if you could clear a island and they wouldn't spawn for a while At least time to pull out your map and look for an X less than 30 seconds isn't enough to hold a map and run around with a bunch of more ads spawning on you.. I've just been doing forts and frankly those are getting boring hopefully they change this soon.
