#36300317993 09/06/2007 09:55:44 Question about the N30 Agent Data Miner Spawn
So I pick up my data miner gear and get to mining yesturday and I get this nice spawn of N30 agents, I think to myself Yes I can get some quick silver frags score. I interlock one of them and then suddenly there are about 12 or so n30 agents around me.  I was very suprised and got slaughtered rather quickly.

My question is this, is the spawn timer all wonky for this drop or is this operating as intended cause I deffinatly remember that it was waves of level 51's or 52's attacking you and about 9 of them in total in waves of 3. This is 53's and 54's in waves of 4 every 5 seconds. a little bit of a kick in the hardness level to say the least.

They come in 4 waves. Each with a very small time span.

 1º Wave: Three ( Player level + 3 )

  2º Wave: Three ( Player level + 2 )

 3º Wave: Three ( Player level +1 )

 4º Wave: Three ( Player level + 4 )


 12 in total.


 Yeah, this is one of the spawns where you can actually die and they won't go away. The timer is pretty good, about some minutes.

Just got my own Data Mining gear back up and I've been poking around, looking for these shiny new spawn. I'll make sure I'm not alone in case these boys show up.

Your gonna need a load of patience as the n3o's are pretty rare to spawn.

The n30s weren't supposed to be that "weak" as they were before the patch. Now they aren't "soloable" anymore, as are the other important node spawns.

Unlike the others though the 3-4 different waves of spawns all drop within seconds of each other instead of waiting for the deaths of the others first, they don't go away when you die, and the timer is the shortest of any of the spawns.  I've gone through this 4-5 different times now and I really think the spawn timer is screwed up.

As in.  The first three drop, then 3-5 second later the next three spawn, 3-5 seconds later the next three, and another 3-5 seconds later the last three.  So little to no pause inbetween and the timer on these guys is less then the reconstruct timer.  I know this because I had these guys spawn on me, kill me and my team quickly, due to having another purple frag on me another person on the team loaded rez and came back for me.  We went through another cycle of the team getting killed trying to get to me, came up with another plan, and just as they were getting ready to come after me again... the spawns vanished.  I had a good minute or two left on my reconstruct timer.
