These pigs constantly respawn to fast and people are taking advantage of it to refine the scraps fix https://youtube.com/watch?v=0DpN1GjGSbg

    because people want refine mats? want them to reduce the respawn rate on ores and flowers too? maybe reduce the amount of nodes that spawn in a zone?

    why patch?

    How many threads must you make about patching people farming for mats? It's not hurting your gameplay; let them play the way they want.

    pigs aren't supposed to drop matrial mats or at least shouldn't drop them at such a reliable rate as to be a major source of farming like this. They don't fight back and take a single hit to kill.

    Theres nothing clever about it. Granted they arent breaking any rules but when you walk into that barn its busier in there then some Social Zones like Mournhold and Riften.

    So much is actually going on that stepping into the barn alone runs the risk of causing the game to crash.

    C'mon now, be honest.

    Maybe some people really like bacon.

    War does not determine who is right - only who is left.

    The heroes during times of war, are nothing but mass murderers during times of peace.

    he does have a good point, it's because this is being exploited which is an issue. Farming mats is one thing, but this is exploiting an in game mechanic to get matts faster, and I'm sure this was NOT intended as other NPC's and enemies don't even spawn that fast.

    Do they sit completely still and respawn almost immediately after you one shot them with a shield bash?

    Obviously I'm not talking about actual mobs, pigs are considered critters, the same as chickens, bantam guar, sheep, deer... etc.

    It's clearly an exploit. The Respawn rate is not intended to be that fast.

    But in the end, does it affect you at all? This is my question to all you that complain about it. Let them play the game they want. So they get a little gold for their farmed materials. Gold is near useless in this game. I want to make it clear that I don't farm...I prefer to trial/dsa with some moderate pvp.

    It hurts the economy so yes and the people who farm without using exploits.

    yes, yes they do. sure they arent in a nice barn like the pigs but i can stand in the middle and hit a pack of fast spawning skeevers in a radius where i am and continue doing this as a complete circle they have respawned :D

    The gold farming that happened along with infinitely respawning jute in Stonefalls did a number on the economy when the game came out a year ago and guess what happened?

    It all got patched.

    Just so you know, something like a quest might be triggering it. I was there a few moments ago, killed the pigs once and mostly white meat drops, plus I had to wait several minutes before they respawned. Please note, this is my starting zone since I am DC so maybe that has something to do with it.

    I can say though, farms like this exist. I have a spot I can stacks of guts in no time. Instant respawns. I made a KILLING when the perfect roe went live.

    How does people running bots affect you at all? Let them play how they want!

    How does people paying Chinese farmers to power grind CP affect you at all? Let them play how they want!

    How does me kicking you in the balls affect you at all?

    Im quite certain Skeevers ARENT critters and they DONT respawn at the rate that these pigs are respawning.

    Since this game is becoming next to nothing BUT grinding at end game with the release of Imperial City, so plays have to farm dungeons for gear to deconstruct, maybe they should leave other methods of farming mats in the game.
    Far too many characters to list any more.

    The problem is that, if you are a dc toon, you will only get basic scraps.
    If you are another faction in your vet zones - you get high end scraps.

    So it's a bit unbalanced isn't it? AD and EP can farm superb hides and refine for legendary.
    DC get almost nothing.
