This might be anecdotal but I've noticed that when I started doing trav runs (creating games quickly) then swapping back to Herald runs the spawn rate of Heralds decreased to zero. So I think their spawn rate may be tied to how often you've created games. If you've been creating games way too quickly it drops that potential spawn to nill. Meanwhile on days where I kept games open while afk and had it running most of the day the herald spawn was noticeably increased compared to quickstart games to check for spawns.

Interesting when we potentially discover the mechanics more exactly.

Dont know if it could ve tied to some server seed or such lile old school dclone.

But really... dont know being the operative phrase..

so once again multiboxing is even better

i dislike it because you cannot control player count in tz and its a nightmare in public games it doesn't goes that well

so if you have loaders you have a massive advantage

big F for the average player that play the game normally because its hard to find a good team to do tz with you. and its also not nearly as good as doing it alone on p8 with 7 loaders.
just big F.

not gonna do that unfun for me

Why cant we just /players 8 ....zzzz

Would be neat if they fixed drops getting deleted when falling in odd spots also, but at this point im clearly asking too much

Its simply unattainable for solo players

You can get hellfire torch as a solo player on a 100 fg budget smiter. You can farm keys with a half naked sorc. You can get tokens, or even uber statues -> jewels. You can get annihilus by being online and lucky when some cabal sells sojs.
Latent sunder hunting is 75% dependent on having a P8 multibox setup and 20% dependent on having a hork barb multibox to give you +75% drops and then finally 5% attainable by solo players

I'd like to see it actually made deterministic and attainable for solo players. Make these changes in a new patch:
  • Killing a terrorized act boss always draws ire
  • Tier 5 herald chance to drop a sunder goes from 1% to 100%. It just drops the god damned charm in P1 and you win, we don't give uber diablo a 1% chance to drop a torch


Yeah sunders would go from 2000-5000 fg down to 200-300 within a day but so what, people need them for chars to function

People still fucking whining about this? lol And no, you don't need Sunder to function. I hate these tourist takes. Game was fine prior to Sunder charms. Now you people act like the game in unplayable without them.
