Within an entire buff session I visited maybe 5 different pve dungeons/locations, the kunga stronghold and force crystal caves on dantooine, the rogue corsec base, the Drall patriot cave and lord nyax.

Why exactly is everyone of these dungeons absolutely dserted? Sorry, I do tell a lie, both the drall patriot cave and the corsec base had one maybe 2 mobs in that were un-attackable due to them being inside the floor.

I have to say I always thought that with these dungeons existing that SWG as a game had alot of potential to have fun (I never actually got round to doing these things before), now however I'm beginning to have some serious doubts.

However, after spending 2 hours (I got bored killing jantas) looking for a place to have a little bit of a challenge, hell something for a change I come up almost completely empty?

I know I might sound stupid, maybe it is something to do with respawn times on these places, I don't know quite frankly I don't care right now. Why in gods name can I not show up to a dungeon and kill something? Is that really asking too much? I wouldn't have thought so, but quite obviously it is.

If I'm doing something wrong and I can do something to make these locations "spawn" please let me know, I'd be delighted to be on my merry fragging way.

It seems that the dungeons are on timers. Fort Tuskan is usually ok but there is normally a mob of people there and some ninja looters. The best dungeon, but also the hardest is the Vette. At least it is instanced and you can have all the PVE you wish.

It's annoying yes. The only reason I haven't cleared every dungeon is because some of them are always empty when I visit them.

On this note, seen as it obviously is spawn times, why are they so long?

Additionally, might this be a good place to compile a list of spawn times for all existing PVE dungeons?

And thank you all for your responses

because that stuff is no fun.

tusken village -camped
tusken king- camped
fort tusken -uber freakin camped and jammed with whiny noobs
squill caves- on my server its camped, even with a high respawn time you constantly have to shift places because theres so many poeople there
jinda caved - camped
korga cave or whatever - always cleared out
crystal cave on dant- fun with a lot of people but way too tough if you just wanna stop by for some fun, not very deep either
sennex cave- camped
geo caves - camped by leet jedi
vette- fun but it takes so damn long to get the stuff to go into it
NS static spawn points- usualy cleared

devs, what teh **edit** are you thinking? gee wilikers i wonder why everything is camped, we must need to tweek and refine them, NO WE DONT NEED ANY MORE GOD DAMN TWEAKING AND CHANGING< YOU HAVE CHANGED THE SAME **edit** 200 FRIGGIN TIMES. WE NEED MORE GOD DAMN STUFF TO DO

i had the funnest time last night, when a person was doing the exist quest for the force sensitive quests from aurilla. him and a few of his guildies were getting prepped for a mission just north of our town so a few of us went to help him, about 12 in all.

we came up on it and we had to destroy several energy pillars while fighting these sith and then kill teh dark jedi NPC.

we all died the first time but finnaly killed him the next time (about 10 TKM's were beating the crap outa this dude) it was SO FUN!!!!!!!! it wa such a nice change of pace, i just loved it.

give us more stuff, do you wonder why its camped? honestly? do you think its because they are looking for their uber loot or XP? no (well some obviously are) its because there NOTHING else to friggin do.

incredibly boring destroy/deliver missions with NO depth what so ever do NOT COUNT AS CONTENT, there SO frigging boring and only done for cash.
