Public Dungeon - Achievment Bosses Low Respawn Rate.

Hey all!

ZoS, you must do something about the respawn rate of the achievement bosses.
They have a absurd low rate... I'm in The Vile Manse waiting since yesterday for one boss! The others six took me like 30mins - 1 hour to complete but the last doesn't respawn.

I know that doesn't supposed to be an easy achiev, but it's like throw my free time away waiting for a boss to respawn...

    Might be a bug? Report it in-game. The respawn timers are slower than they were but that seems like overkill. Sounds like something is bugged.
    I don't always drink Skooma, but when I do I go to the Southwall Corner Club. May you walk on warm sands my friends.

    Razak last boss (well, furthest into the dungeon) never spawned for me. Been there twice, waited 30+minutes.

    Some bosse require an action for them to appear. Maybe that's the case here. If not, report bug in game

    I feel your pain with this one. After three days of trying, I finally only had one boss left on the lower level of Manse to complete all my Pub dungeon achievements.

    After a server maintenance reboot, all bosses are spawned (from what I've been told). After they are killed, in any given pub dungeon, only two bosses can spawn at any given time. I could never find any rhyme or reason and it seemed to be random. In some dungeons I would have to kill the same boss a few times (going back and forth) to get the one I needed to spawn.

    In Manse, it's such a nightmare because there is the Upper and Lower level, and it's such a time waste to run back and forth.

    I sat in there for 3 hours while I just read random garbage on the internet, and FINALLY the last boss showed up downstairs. I was tired of the running back and forth, so I just had to sit there and hope a group would come through upstairs and kill some bosses, and eventually the boss I needed downstairs did finally appear.

    Waiting for the bosses is the wrong tactic. The bosses spawn timer works differently in this game. Only a set number of bosses can be up at a given time. If you are just sitting waiting for a boss, it will never spawn unless another group happens to kill a different one.

    I've completed all of those achievements and only a few bosses took a bit longer. What you need to do is kill the bosses that are up at the time. Then go to the spot where the boss you need is. Wait 10 minutes. If the boss didnt appear, then a different boss appeared, rinse, repeat.

    All the bosses are on a 10 minute timer, however, some bosses have a lower chance to spawn than others.

    What he said. Only a certain number of bosses are spawned at the same time. To get a new one to spawn, one of the ones that's already spawned must be killed. Certain bosses have a lower chance of spawning than others, so it can take some work to get that last one. But as long as you understand these mechanics, you can work them out.

    Yeah, this isn't commonly known.

    I tell everyone I meet in Pub dungeons, but people seem to like to camp... then they get the last guy I need because I was on the other end of zone killing the PHs :p
