Are the dervs spawn rate in Great Divide nerfed? It seems the north west area was good for the dervs and never had skeletons, now it seems skeletons and screamers are the most frequent spawn with a minor amount of corpses... where are the dervs now?
I assume this is the same as elsewhere in ToV and the mobs share spawn tables. Kill more of the other mobs to get dervs.
In Bug Reports, confirmed: https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/great-divide-dervishes.262593/ The only luck you might have is in a fresh pick right now (people have reported 4-5 up at start).
They are PHs for each other. So if someone was ahead of you came though and plowed down all the dervishes to do the merc, you are not going to have to kill a bunch of corpses to get dervishes to pop.
Having just done this task myself Monday, and helped a guildie do it last night, I can say that the ‘a windchill sprite’ DO still spawn. North end of the zone, just west of the river, above the waterfall that has the coldain NPC’s. I’ve seen at least three spawn points there that can spawn the dervs. Ironically, they’re the only spawn points up there that I’ve also seen spawn as the tizmak.
