I am up to 12k NPC kills and still haven't found one. We have had 8 in the last 2 days. That is out of the 364 elites I can see. Can you up the spawn rate a wee bit, maybe twice as often.

I agree! I've killed 4K NPCs in the last two days, and I've only had four Standard Q-Pedd NPCs. No Elites, however. I really want those drops.

Could really use upped amounts, only the big legions with the people that do thousands of npcs are going to get the drops...

Ive killed about 3k the last few days and Ive seen 5 Standards and no elites myself :/ a little disheartening.

I agree it needs to be increased as well.

+1, same thing here. thousands of NPC's and only one protopedd found

get over it its rare for a reason. Like all the others every month. Same story every month. Dan wants it this way if you have not fig it out yet.

He upped it both for Halloween and Thanksgiving. Christmas they were fairly common, so no he doesn't and is willing to met demand by increasing the spawn rate.

thats his plan he slowly raises it as the event comes to and end. So wait like normal or kill kill kill. All i can say gl happy hunting

Actually, after the complaints of the Halloween & Thanksgiving Elite's rarity, Dan compromised and said he would no longer implement the "rising commonality" for these events, and that he would bolster the elites to the increased rate(and keep it at that rate) for the entire duration of events, as was seen during the Scruuge Event.



It seems quite clear that Dan has forgotten to change the spawn rates of these NPC Elites.

'Remain at a reasonable rate' is a qualitative (and not quantitative) remark. While he may have intended the seasonal elites to have a fixed likelihood of spawning throughout the season, it is also possible that he was still planning to code them with an ascending likelihood over time but with a starting frequency that would be deemed by most to be sufficient.

Are there going to be any new elite/boss NPCs you're NOT going to complain about?

Maybe if you turn your waa-I-don't-get-what-I-want knob back about 4 notches...

lost count on how many NPC's I killed during this event.....
but so far I found 6 Standart W-Pedd and 0 elite Q-Pedd

and while hunting for those, I found 5 Boss / Extremely Rare, 8 - 12 elite/Extremely Rare to Rare, and 5 T.O. Troop Carrier (Extremely Rare)
(also hit a lot off other uncommon NPC's, lost count off those as well)


Q-Pedd Escapee are suposed to be uncommon, but from what I'm seeing it fells more like they are Extremely Rare

i could just be extremly lucky / unlucky depending on how you look at it, but can only agrey the spawn rate on all Q-peed ships needs to be increased

yull a just foolish. STOP HAVING A LIFE! look at all the stuff Dan puts out. you should be NPC'ing 24/7 to get them. stop sleeeping stop working cause unless Dan andhis devs Ithink he has a GL team don't know any thing , clearly your ment to play GL 24/7 for the things you need. hats why he have mega rare spawn rates VERY POOR drop rates and things like that right?

I bow before lord pony's wisdom in this matter

hear some more wisdom, most of them get more common and then are most common on the day its self. As dan and devs are with there others it seems they expect you to click a way. kinda like on Christmas you where supose to tell timmy to go play out side as u click away. inlaws coming by for thanksgiving lol to bad your clicking away all day. the kids want to easter egg hunt. To bad you have clicking to do. Sorry GL guys i dont mean to be a a jerk or na sayer its just that you set you game with mega rare drops/ npc that we only seem to have real hope of getting when we SHOULD e with our love ones. your game dose not come first and it seems like your trying hard for that in the timming and way you go about things. I think this works well for younger people 12 year olds and such but for the rest of us with jobs and family. kinda seems like your neglecting that. Just plz keep a good spwan rate the whole time. i have put over 10 hurs npc'ing in not 1 have i gotten I know others are in the same boat. Under stand we have lives and this is just frustrating time and time again the way you do it.

you gotta remember that the low-ish ranks like me can't auto-rank just yet (again). I'm so desperate for these NPCs I've been using refills...

...and I just realized why they're so rare.

Did it ever occur to you people that perhaps he's doing this on purpose? Maybe he doesn't want this game to be the easiest thing in the world And maybe, just MAYBE, the idea isn't to have everyone above 300 have every mod.

Perhaps you have to work on it, and hope luck is on your side. You know, like a real game.

True, very true, BUT this is an EoTS Member asking for more... I know that they're an NPC crazy legion.

First you've got to fond the NPC, and then you've got to get lucky on the drop. Sounding near-impossible to me.
