Siptah should replace 80% of rocknose(cockroach) spawns with different creatures

Seriously, every single area is just a bloody rocknose (cockroach) spam of 50 rocknoses (cockroaches)
it feels super lazy to be honest, and making players fight the exact same enemy over and over and over and over and over again like rocknose (cockroach) gets beyond annoying

(I will always add cockroach to rocknose when i talk about them since they pretty much are the Conan cockroach)

Like holy hell this is just spam at this point when there’s this many in small areas

I like rocknoses :slight_smile: Rannissan (or any big hammer) + master weapon fitting + field of rocknoses = batter up :laughing: You can take out two or three with a single swing if you time it right :smiley:

It’s not the challenge, it’s the fact it gets annoying fighting your 75th rocknose after walking 100 meters lol if they spaced out the spawns and maybe cut them in half it would be ok but it just seems like all these rocknose a were just quickly tossed in to an area and forgotten about, hell after that picture i took i had to fight 15 more with in a span of 3 minutes, that’s pretty annoying for me to be honest, id love to see them give us something else to fight, like why not have some jhil roaming about or juv dragons wanting in some of the areas where there’s mass rocknose spawns, I’d love to see rocknoses replaced in all areas that are not mountainous or rocky

To be fair, I was forgetting what some parts of Siptah can be like, lol. I’m back on the exiled lands, where there’s much less of that problem. It would certainly be good to have a bit more variety in some of those areas. One really nice idea would be if they could maybe have a few more options for each of the spawn spots - like each spot could spawn one of a few different things (or possibly nothing), that way the spawns would feel more dynamic and it would be less easy to learn exactly what you’ll encounter along a given route.

See what i love and miss about exiled lands is proper enemy placement, enemy’s fit their own biomes on that map,

siptah seems like they let someone just slap a bunch a random crap where ever the felt like, imo they need to fully redo all enemy placements in siptah to properly fit better

I do like your randomized spawns idea for certain areas, one day maybe a roaming pack of hyenas in the desert, if you kil them all it might be a mated pair of mountain lions or something next respawn

I know what you mean - the main isle of Siptah, particularly the animal spawns, feel like maybe they were placed based solely on a form of ‘video game logic’ - like radiating circles, with the easiest stuff on the outside and rings of increasing toughness toward the centre. And maybe they weren’t considered much beyond that - perhaps the original thought was that wild surges and the maelstrom would provide that dynamism. But as that changed, maybe the animal spawns needed revisiting. Hopefully it will be something Funcom continues to look at as things go forward.

Apparently you did not play when they rolled out the northern area in CE. They had a bug where a dozen mobs would spawn where one should have. You seriously had to fight your way every inch of the way thru the north or just run like hell thru it. ( No horses back then either ). Nothing like being chased by 20 wolves, for a good time.

Agreed. Replace them with Corrupted Wolves.

I can’t imagine a game without its 80% rocknoses (cockroach chihuahua). They are unique and replacing them with regular animals will make Conan similar to other games. :scream_cat:

Reference to chihuahua :arrow_down: :dog2:

Since they renewed their appearance and increased their variety, I like :heart_eyes: them even more. If it is necessary to reduce their number on Siptah, let it be just a little bit.

:spiral_notepad: When I try to avoid them but they still notice me, their roar is so unexpected it scares me :ghost: sometimes. More rocknoses mean more fun for me. :laughing:
