[Yes-Under Development] Increase Herb Spawn Rates

[Soyoen]

HEY HERE'S AN IDEA WHEN THEY MAKE IT SO HERBS RESPAWN AGAIN THEY SHOULD QUADRUPLE THE RATES ON THEM SO PLAGUEBLOOM ISN'T 60G A STACK AND LOTUS AREN'T 100G PER

Zul'Gurub should be great, rollin in those manablood potions.

ZG releasing in a couple weeks. Please fix this soon.

Plaguebloom / Black Lotus need 3-4x spawn rate increase.

[Robotron]

Herbs (or at least Lotus) are spawning less than regular Blizzlike rates (maybe because they spawned less in previous patches?), so they need to be brought up to normal rates. Then quadrupled, if not quintupled. We have 3-4x the population of a full server, and a much higher percentage of the players raid here than average, meaning more competition for resources.

As far as I can tell, the spawn rate for plaguebloom and lotus have looked quite blizzlike up to this point, just isn't enough to keep up with demand. Plus I'm pretty sure there are way more herbs just sitting in people's banks and they're price gouging - especially for lotus. On Ally side there are only like 3 names that list black lotus.

Well, when they increase the spawn rates these people hoarding the lotus in order to control the market will lose big time.

Isn't there supposed to be guaranteed 1 Lotus up in the world at all times?

Would be nice if the GM's soon took a stance on this, we are some who are investing loads of gold into herbs, expecting price increase later, as it do with natural inflation.

So if you are planning on actually breaking the economic system, because people whine in this forum, please inform in good time.

Yeah, but not to be rude. I think the thread is about making the herbs spawn more frequent, rather than the standard 45min respawntimer or whatever it is, so its enough supply. So we dont have to pay 60G a stack

[Guybrush]

"Blizzlike" respawn timers don't matter at all, as they only affect a small section of the population: the herbalists.
What actually affects everyone are the AH prices, they need to adjust the timers in order to get blizzlike AH prices.
