I camped Giant Centipede and Deos on two characters for over the maximum wait period 3 hours and 36 minutes. I was only able to find both bosses in ch20. People are reporting the same issues with Griffey, Manon and various other area bosses.
Many players seem to encounter a similar issue of: Bosses do not spawn outside Channel 20. How was it detected: Multiple people have waited in different channels for: [(spawn rate) + (20% offset)] amount of time. No spawn.
I have found the same issue, I was hunting manon for 3 hours and 45 minutes with 10 others to only find one in channel 20, which was the same issue many others faced.
I experienced this issue at Manon, and have friends who reported it in almost every other area boss available. Currently trying to gather more information from more players, but the general verdict seems to be that nobody is finding anything outside of channel 20 despite waiting the maximum period of the respawn time.
Got the same issue with Griffey, been looking for him like 3 hours today and another 4 yesterday and still no single Griffey spawned
Checked all Twisted Paths from channels 1-20 for Bigfoot twice and did not see him when normally it only takes like 5-10 channels.
Check channel 20 in around 2 hours and one should spawn soon. We killed it roughly 45 minutes ago so you should find one there.
Hi everyone, I've tracked down the source of this issue - it seems like a really rare issue that only would crop up if the database happens to be under very heavy load meanwhile the world server is starting. I've implemented a fix for this to ensure that area boss information loads correctly even if the database is under heavy load, which will be released as of the next server check. We'll likely plan to have one soon, seeing as this affects nearly every channel.
