Where are the Sweepers and Soul Reapers?

marcbf · September 26

Come to think of it, this might make the Witches Festival somewhat more difficult, since one of the tasks is to take down a Sweeper group.

I think I've seen exactly one sine my last post (Sept. 5th), and that was a while ago. Random incompetent Summoners, Werewolves, and Bandits - yes. Soul Reapers - no. And I too miss the random Daedra/Vampire crews dropping out of nowhere. At one point, it was pretty common for me to run into these while going between fishing spots or digging up treasure chests and antiquities. Now, it's eerily quiet...

Darn. Just as I finally post a thread on this subject I see this one. My haunt is usually Deshaan and I haven't seen any of those incursions for weeks. I might even go so far as to say for a couple of months by now. We're talking early August at the latest.

@minnowfaun didn't we actually talk about this in zone chat in Deshaan? Your username rings a bell.

It's entirely possible. Deshaan is my home base too. I usually check with others in game to see if they're having similar experiences before I come to the forum.

I've been thinking about this too. Unless they decide to change the requirements. Or if they decide to leave it broken for the whole festival like they did with the Crow Borne Horror two years ago.

Once again @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_Kevin can we get some kind of acknowledgement of this issue?

The sweeper is also fulfilled by public dungeon and IC bosses. So, it will still be easily doable. Unfortunate that these aren't working though and obviously they should comment on it. Just wanted to give a heads-up for anyone that usually just gets it done with the sweeper right in front of the witch festival and usually didn't have it even think about this skull.

for myself, i found it significantly more rare to find a soul reaper outside of solstice

in solstice it only spawns soul reapers so its much easier to farm for the achievement

So, I saw the commoner here and could hear there was a Soul Reaper here, BUT, while it occasionally spawns cultists, the reaper itself is probably within the cliff. i went down to the bottom to see if it was down there, and it wasn't. if you climb up to the top you get some cultist dialog and a cultist spawn, but, yeah, the reaper is in the cliff.

Location is here:

@ZOS_Kevin Could we get a fix?
