I’ve never seen Kobolds and Coldain in the group mission - however they are in the raid version that we tested on beta. Either the mission is not working as intended or the collectibles have been placed incorrectly still.
Zone in, don't trigger the mission fight, instead go down to the basement. Plenty of kobold and coldain down there to kill. Kill your fill (its a good lesson burn spot) and when you're done head back up and trigger the mission fight.
Eh, I think its fine, even if it isn’t preferable. You can re-get the mission as many times as you want to spawn the NPCs and there are a fair number of them, so you don’t need to flip it 100x just to get one set. I’m just glad they aren’t in the chest so I don’t need to get a lockout every time I want a chance at the collectibles.
Agree the mob density is great as well. Still working on the nuances of pulling down there as the pathing is awful.
Well, they drop the useless tools set at a very minimum which is well, not very helpful. That set is a fairly regular find in the static zone. Edit: I have found ground-spawns of the previously rare/unfindable two sets in the static zone so far today, so something changed, I'm just not sure what is supposed to happen right now.
