Gunpowder skellies still need adjusting

  • I know they said they toned em down after the event... But.....they need to tone them down a bit more. They were fun at first but i still get gunpowder skellies spawning allllll the time....
    Snake island just now they spawned every 15-20 seconds and was always TWO of em with barrels... Anyone else think they could use another adjustment? They def still spawn a loooot

  • @shuoink Well it's all RNG based; I went to a skull fort recently with only about three gunpowder skeletons spawning over the entire session - So from my point of view they need to increase the spawn rate!

    But for real, it's all about luck; I reckon they should keep the spawn rate the same.

  • Yeah you think so...every island i wemt to today they were outta control amd wouldn't be the first time... See waaaay too many of em still

  • @shuoink I think so too. I don't know whether faction ranks or voyage levels have some influence, but atm kill quests are just bombing.

  • @shuoink I want them to spawn more often... It's more fun with a few gunpowder skeletons running after you. Heck... Everything is more fun with more gunpowder!

    nah, its not. It was the first few days...
    now.. when doing oos, and literally every wave i get three guys from the island spawn with gunpowder.. its blow up, respawn, repeat, and it gets old hella quick. rather be able to just kill the waves myself without dying every wave due to uneccesary amounts of GP skellies showing up.
    If it was one every few waves, cool. 2-3 EVERY wave is over the top. I wonder if being on an athena voyage has something to do with it...
    i know athena voyages get more island skellies to spawn as is, but the GP skellies are out of control. Maybe they only applied the nerf to regular island waves and not athena voyages, i dunno. either way, its still too many

  • @shuoink Not sure if this is actually what happened but I have noticed (at least in my sessions) that grass, shadow, and gold skeletons with barrels has been reduced significantly but bone skeletons seem completely unchanged.

    Ambient skeletons and bone skeletons on islands that are not forts always seem to have barrels. I like it though because it makes hoarding them easy lol.

    Looking at it i think your right... its the ambient ones that spawn like crazy while doing an athenas and EVERY Wave has barrels...

  • I farmed around 30 Exploding barrels from Plunderer's Plight Yesterday in just over 10 minutes.

    Exploding Skellys just kept spawning, a quick shot to the knee cap, the barrels just kept coming.... :-)
