Current TZ is CS, and "You draw the ire of a herald" popped up twice. Ran through whole CS and couldn't find him or them if there was 2 because of the double pop up.

Question is, can they spawn in the river of flame that is not the TZ but nearby? Will the Herald also always spawn on the floor you're on?

Once you drew 2 Ires, you can have a double spawn.

Each Ire is a Herald,
If you got 2 Ires it means you will eventually get 2 Herald Spawns in the future in your game.

No you cannot spawn them outside of TZ.

Okay so it's not spawned yet? I must keep killing until it says an Ire is hunting me?

Yup, but CS is small so if you already cleared it and it didn’t spawn, you should just NG.
I mean, you could also wait for the next TZ in the same game, but unless it happened to switch to it without having to wait, it’s not worth it.
Anyway low lvl heralds are pretty much useless.
You want to keep a game active and terrorize each act one by one.
Don’t lose your time hunting them randomly if you just do quick TZ runs.

First is "You draw the ire of a Herald"

Second is "A herald is hunting you in X area".

If you get :
"You draw the ire of a Herald
You draw the ire of a Herald"

It means you have 2 heralds "looking at you" but that didnt spawn yet
And you may have then

A herald is hunting you in X area
A herald is hunting you in X area

Note that the 2 heralds will be the same tier if they pop next to each other.
I could not confirm if once you kill those two, the next Herald will be Tier +2 or +1. Like if you spawn two Tier 1 will the third be T2 or T3.
Havent figured that yet.

You can also just get the heralds to spawn not next to each others in which case (lets say you spawned 0 yet) you will get T1 and T2.
Its really just when they spawn at the same time.

Hi, have you tested/experience whether do you have to kill the herald within x minutes after spawning/will they despawn once the area is no longer terrorised? And must they be killed for the herald tier to go up? Meaning if I spawn 3 heralds, don't kill them, and move on, will the 4th herald be tier 4, and the first 3 will stay in game?

I reckon you need to kill the heralds in order to upgrade the Tier level. Not 100% sure but the 2 heralds spawning next to each others at the same Tier makes me think so. And when having 2 Ires but spawns one after the other the Tier was +1 and not same level.
For your question about not killing, no, I dont try this kind of thing, I think it is silly to do so. Just kill the heralds, and get tour +1 Tier - until T5.
I dont see why they would despawn tho. No mob despawns in the game, but the heralds would ?
Even if you spawn mobs in TZ, dont kill em, TZ changes, the mobs are still under TZ in the first area.
Probably to prevent from despawning.
Will these mobs be able to count for an Ire, even if the area is not under TZ anymore ? I have yet to find this out. Havent had an Ire from TZ mobs in a no-more TZ areza tho
