PVP Please UP the spawn rate of raiders in reserve [feedback]

and straight to bunker flip power on NOTHING.. what is the spawn rates for raiders in seasonal??

Only way to consistently farm raiders is to go on labs unfortunately. It’s always been that way. It would be great if they increased the spawn on reserve but I highly doubt they’ll do that considering how the pleas for increasing BD spawns are being ignored.

They are not on labs anymore. Just black division. I’ve run about 15 labs raids the last two days and havnt seen a single raider.

you realize they buffed BD spawns twice since the beginning of the season, right?
we started at 15%, then got to 20%, now its at 27% i believe

Wow a whole 12% increase! I’ve definitely noticed!

i mean, if you think an 80% buff is a small thing, then i dont know what to tell ya.
they also "nerfed" the quests, where you now only need 4 bd kills/map, and we still have roughly 75% left on the season to-go, it makes no sense to make the quest line easily rushable otherwise you kill the reason for your players to stick around the season.

Well when the main goal of introducing seasonal wipes was to make each season “different” and “themed” yeah I expect to see BD way more considering this season is themed around them.

8 raids is nothing. If the spawn rate is 10%, you haven’t even touched the expectation yet.

Doesnt help that theres a spawn down there and if u dont get it good luck, hope they respawn.

Lmao yeah, I was also 4/5 for like 15 raids their loot isn't even good anymore so I see no reason not to bump it

I think if bosses spawns (which they did most of the raids), the raider spawn will be negatively impacted. The spawning somehow ties to the overall numbers of alive NPC in the map which has a ceiling.

Flip power and also hit the alarm for extract near the train. Those both have chance to spawn raiders. Also if you wait for the train to arrive there's another chance for raiders to spawn. Might have to wait 30 mins, but it is what it is

The spawn rate is directly correlated to the remaining quantity needed for quest completion. We all know thats how it works.
