Has anyone seen ambush! spawned since the update? I have been attempting to spawn it, along with a few others and have not seen it spawn. I am wondering if its currently bugged and unable to spawn?

Paul could you please check into this,

thanks sir!

Hmmm, I believe it has been increased (spawn that is), BUT, I can not clarify this definitively, but, since the new upgrades / update, well(s) are still as sporadic as before, I found 3 or more early at start of update, but, now I find them sporadically thinking that they have not increased... so I think you are experiencing the later... it is game catacomb dependent (as I would put it)... example... 7-15 spins (Flash) in one cata and 1-2 in the previous 5 cata(s).

EDIT: I ONLY explore, so whistling maybe another issue.

Apot literally explores all day just like bwconformity. If there was someone qualified to talk about it's spawn rate I think it would be him :P .

You believe it's been increased? Facts are not faith based. You have no basis for your beliefs.
You're playing hardcore, a realm that hasn't reset in years and you have a handful of mqs which I highly doubt you did recently. Did you even play the beta? Did you even play after the new version was released?

Sir I am not talking about wells spawning, I'm talking about an objective "AMBUSH!" which I have personally not seen spawn. I would appreciate it if you didn't spam my thread speaking about wells. If you have anything constructive to add about the spawning of the objective called "AMBUSH!" then please add it... otherwise do not post here again. I will report you for spamming my topic

Had to take a 5 min breather to respond.

Outside of Paul stating he has increased spawn rate (oh, did he mention it or, not?). You only need to look at his posts. By the way, I can ONLY assume because of the updates made, in which Paul has stated (did he mention that certain objectives have had in increase spawn rate? Oh, 1 or 2 maybe, we heard about Face the Evil). Other than that, and testing previously, you CAN spawn Ambush, I have had this happen many times prior and during 1.30, PEOPLE just need to know how to coerce that objective to spawn more.

Note: Don't assume that I have not tested any of these before update, YES, ambush does not spawn as fast as others, BUT, they can be manipulated to spawn... BUT... having Ambush spawn at level 45+ is beneficial for drops (well, that was then, but, with the new update, it is most likely more beneficial).

Don't bring HC into your discussion, as stated by others (if not including you), there is NOTHING different between HC or SC, the game mechanics are IDENTICAL. The ONLY 2 objectives I have never completed are Elemental Education and Mirror Maze (Hardcore).

You are aware I am not spamming. If you want to complete Ambush, you need to create an OBJECTIVE character... the thing is this, you may need to use mules to complete these objectives which are ONLY used to complete them based on level... so, when you are in a group and reach a certain level, you join group with your OBJECTIVE character to ensure that objective is listed (before entering cata), now, once this objective has been listed, you revert back to your original character to make sure objective can spawn, now when that objective appears, the group leaves ONE monster alive, now, you re-enter with your Objective character (level up toon with help of others if game creation does NOT support your level) to kill last monster to gain the objective req.

It is not spam, even prior to this update, you could complete basically all objectives outside of MM... I solo'd No Maze No More and created group game for others to help complete it, or even hunt it.

Hmmm, I actually know that my limited insight (even though been playing this game longer than you have joined) can actually help, so I will post thank you.) Note: Buf and Sharpdeath with many others know that I am not just a sporadic poster or Nub to this game.

Dang... I wanted to leave that out of the discussion so they would actually take the time to search it for themselves... but thanks

Look I asked you politely not to spam my thread, I am not a noob... I know how to spawn ambush!

I've spent a very long time since reset trying to spawn it.

do not post here unless you're coming to tell me you've seen it spawn since pauls updates.

You have your answer, I don't need to prove anything as DankeKong pointed out, Paul has increased spawn rate for Ambush, just like I stated.
I have posted relevant information, also other avenues to spawn this objective for your benefit, if you feel you are hard done by and think that
my posts were spam, then you are incorrect... I personally do not like (even as poetic or polite you may think your posts are)) how you belittle
my comments and ask me to stop posting relevant or helpful tips, you are not the ONLY one that may feel that Ambush does NOT spawn to your
liking, or to be more precise, more often since Pauls update... just like a 'Well', it may spawn, but, it is NOT guaranteed to spawn, just like Ambush
or other Objectives.

It either spawns, or it doesn't... so, if you spawn 10+ spins instead of 10+ warm lights, which one is better or worse compared to the spins being
Evil Presences... we would rather have the EPs spawn in a cata vs spins, as it would be for wells... but... to be more precise, I have had full cata
runs where ONLY 1 objective appear (level 25+) ... so, you want Ambush to be the ONLY objective to spawn because it is active?

It is random, sorry, some appear more frequently, but, still random, just like solo, Treasure Pest either spawns or not... been to 71 without TP
objective even spawning.

Hope this info helps you get over the random % of objectives spawning.

Stop posting in my thread,

You are not answering my question. You are unable to comprehend the point of this topic. I have gone out of my way to attempt to be kind to you but for some reason you cannot read or choose not to read. You have obviously not spawned ambush! since pauls update, telling me that he increased the rate at which it spawns is jibberish. How long have you attempted to spawn it since the update? I've spawned the objective MANY times prior to the update, I'm telling you there is something broken with it since the update.... so lets stay on topic here.


Editing helps. Hints are helpful, So are reading tools and spell checker... oh w8, is this off topic or pointing out the obvious?

As posted previously (don't preach what you don't teach):

End Note: You may or may not have read this edit, well, just like the spawn rate of Ambush during a cata run, YOU may have or may NOT have the cata run that spawns Ambush... Random as it is... :D
