They wouldn't spawn. They take the place of an elite pack that hasn't been loaded yet.


can they spawn of an evil urn?

It’s just terror zones, once you’ve killed baal on that difficulty they will start to show up. After that it doesn’t matter if it’s a TZ you made with a shard or if it was one of the 30 minute rotation ones, just kill elites and keep your fingers crossed.

ok that helps a ton thanks!

also another question regarding tz and shards, using a shard make entire act corresponding to the shard used, all tz like every zone and mob?

Yeah the whole act. Me personally I do normal tz if I draw ire at least 3 times then I'll use a shard. Some games are hot some games you don't draw at all. Don't waste them on bad games

The goood old Heralds B)

they don’t replace packs, they’re their own spawn

game just rolls for it when you kill stuff, doesn’t care if all boss packs are already up or not. you’re not “blocking” heralds by spawning everything first

you can clear the whole map, leave packs alive, come back later and still get heralds. it’s tied to kills, not available spawn slots

den example works the same, corpsefire being there doesn’t matter

people overthink this because of old spawn logic, but heralds don’t follow that

That’s correct yeah, even all the small secondary locations without wps. It’s nice because I never do those optional side dungeons, good to have a reason now.

What id recommend is start doing one of the random/rotation tzs, then pop your shard for another act. Then you can do the random TZs as they change and switch back to doing whichever part of the shard terrorized act you were at previously. It’s a great way to stretch out your shards
