Just ran vet City of Ash 1. I didnt see any heave sack, and only found 1 chest. The COA1 is glitched now. Please fix it, ZOS.

    City of Ash 1 used to be 'City of sacks'.

    Another mention is 'Blacksack Haven'

    Did you check every possible spawn location? Cause there are a lot of them, as well this is a freakishly minor bug.

    Im farming it atm for a bsw shield again and I can confirm that they nerfed the amount of loot heavily.
    There are always 2 sacks and 2 chests and I know the spots. I spent there a lot of time. Pretty demoralizing if you knew how many sacks were there before.

    It must be a glitch cuz ZOS didn't mention nerf heavy sack in patch notes.

    Standardized the appearance rate of heavy sacks and treasure chests in all trials to match Maw of Lorkhaj and the changes to Halls of Fabrication. As part of this, we added heavy sacks to Sanctum Ophidia, which did not previously have any.

    I guess they changed something about the usual dungeons as well without mentioning it. Its not only like that in city of ash.

    There are DOZENS of heavy sack locations in there. But that being said I haven't been in there recently to see any changes.

    They've redone chests and sacks in dungeons. It isn't a glitch.

    Yes, there are still all locations possible, but only 2 of them will actually spawn a sack.

    I've been in Blackheart today, no heavy sacks around, the group was indeed puzzled about it.
    If this is a deliberate change as some users reported above, it's just stupid, pls ZOS punish some more the people running for farming the damn gear or even pugging for pledges, as if there are not too many downsides already, why the hell did you felt the need to eliminate or drastically reduce the sacks? It's not like we are getting millions from the sacks, lol, it's just some mats, a very poor consolation for the huge amount of time spent in there getting crappy traits on gear or absurd random groups with lot of time-wasters.
    By now I really shouldn't be surprised about awful decisions by this game studio, still they manage to amaze me every time.

    Maybe you were looking at the wrong sacks?

    Found a heavy sack and two chests while sauntering through normal Elden Hollow 1 last night. Can anyone else legitimately confirm any issues for City of Ash 1? Make sure you are taking your time and not rushing past any area. Check corners, behind crates and barrels, and make sure your brightness/contrast settings are properly set.

    I think heavy sacks always have something like the oblivion symbol on them, but try not to look for that and focus on checking all the sacks to see if they are heavy. I don't think the sacks are always facing outward where the oblivion symbol is visible. Perhaps the spawns for HS's have changed? Perhaps the number of HS spawns has been reduced? I don't think they are impossible to find, but maybe the spawn rate has been significantly reduced, more than was intended.

    Has anyone encountered similar experiences, particularly with City of Ash? @ZOS_Finn , while standardizing the appearance rate of HS's and chests, was the reduction of HS's intentional in some dungeons? Thanks!
    Best,
    Ettin

    The RNG gods are displeased with the OP for insisting on kicking every low level he meets.

    You laugh, but what will you do when you need to heave something in a sack? Eh? Eh?
