spawn rates for ns have dropped to nil. Where have they gone and when can we expect them back? Hunting NS is like my only fun thing to do in this game, and you've screwed me.

No the actual FULL area of Dathomir is bugged. Thus eliminating any extra Nightsisters in that area. I didn't run into hardly one single lair on Dath in a 6k m bike ride. Something is definitly wrong!

Where are the NS gone you ask?
I will tell you where and why, they got sick and tired of getting beaten round the head with big hammers, so they have gone to france for a vacation

I think Tatooine is bugged also, I spend 15 mins or so driving around krayt graveyard with my buddy and suddenly i noticed that i didn't only not find any krayts, i didn't find anything atall, and that area is usually quite full of wild spawns of NPC's and creatures so i told my buddy if there would be nothing there prolly wouldn't be any krayts either, so we killed the tusken cave, after that he had to go and I went to dathomir for NS, also on Dath I didn't find any NS or creatures whatsoever, but in the cave there where enough NS...

What servers are you guys on? I'm on chimera and have beed tripping over them left right and center for the last few days. All the other spawns seem to be wroking fine for me as well.
They do spawn and when they do its usually alot, but there are hours of time when there is nothing at all on the planet.

i noticed that during Dathomir day time, there are very few NS spawns; but when night comes, there are a lot of spawn of NS. last dathomir night i had 3 spawns of Elder in 300m !!!!

I play on eclipse and have'nt had any problems with the spawn rates.
there has been a funny kind of lag happening on the server since pub 11 though this may be whats causing you to not see the spawns. instead of riding your bike try walking /running or riding a mount.

I'm not sure, but i think i read it on my early days of SWG... The server is balancing the planets automatically. As more players
are on a planet as less random spawning creatures. You can pull missions to force the server to spawn more creatures.
As everyone is on dathomir atm, there are less random spawns...
Was NS hunting yesterday too and it was bit tougher to find NS spawns, but they were there...

Just a shame all the loot was rubbish, not even a single crystal or tape.

Ive been finding a lot of sentinals and rangers on my hunts for a bull baby rancor, and a hell of a lot of singing mountain clan npc's. But ive noticed that since this new FS phase has come about, i havent seen any wild bull rancor lairs anywere :S

Just a guess but maybe all the sith around the bases are counting against the npc spawn limits and keeping them low. But I have also heard many planets having this problem so who knows. Seems like the main problems having been going in shifts. I was doing janta missions one morning and I would loot a corpse and it would take 10 seconds to actually loot it after I hit the button. But latter that night everything seemed fine.

Yes, you are completly right, Not only are the spawns broken, but for some players the lag is near unplayable. I really am begining to wonder if they somehow reduced the spawn rates to keep the lag down till they iron out the bugs with these new JTS updates. We will have to see. ..
