Where have all the monsters gone?

My roommate and I have both begun to notice a disturbing trend. Has anybody seen the traditional monsters around lately? Kraken and Adamastor seem to be taking a long nap. Is it just us or is something up?

Re: Where have all the monsters gone?

I saw the Ghost Ship when I first started playing, but had no idea what you are supposed to do with it. Still don't. Are you supposed to destroy it?

When its over land it drops its crew (I could of used another term but figured this one was better) and you can attack them. 50-100 will get you the Ectoplasmic Badge.

Re: Where have all the monsters gone?

I fought Adamaster about 2 months ago, I've been trying to find Kraken every time I do a Jump through of Perez Park. Yesterday, with an in game friend (Tapeworm), we took down Jurrasik and Juggernaught Red Kronos. So that's two more badges on my Belt.

But I really want to find Kraken, and I'm frustrated not finding him.

Re: Where have all the monsters gone?

Was playin my troller and just happened to be badge hunting in DA. On the way back from getting the Cairn Warder badge I spot something out the corner of my eye, I back up and who do i see.....Adamastor. Invite a few people and we take him down no problem. Well guess I'll log in my blaster now. Get a invite from a friend thats doin a mish in PP. On the way to the mish who do you think i saw? That's right, Kraken. 2 badges, 2 different toons, all in about a 30 minute time span. Talk about luck. :)

Re: Where have all the monsters gone?

Over on Infinity, our level 36s were coming back from a door
when someone noticed there was a call for heroes on the
Broadcast channel (which I normally don't watch) and that
Lusca was there!

So, I got to see Lusca in person for the first time. About
25-30 heroes were there, and fortunately smart players too.

Everyone made sure to whack just one tentacle at a time,
which sends Lusca underwater, giving us a chance to
heal/buff/rez etc. then Lusca comes back up and rinse and
repeat.

I was impressed when the first ink bomb hit. Not quite
a ranged uber-nuke, but the large burst of black inkiness
looked particularly dangerous, and generally took 50% or
more of someone's health bar.

I survived one whack of a tentacle when I got in too close,
but otherwise was ok. (As a Controller, I focused on making
sure I got off debuffs like Quicksand, Earthquake and
Freezing Rain, then CJ+Hurdle+Swift myself back out of melee
reach, giving O2 Boosts for 250hp a shot to the heroes.

Was the first time in many levels I turned on the Cryonic
Armor. (temp power from a level 20-24 sky raider mission.
You have a total of 60 minutes of use, and it counts the
seconds, and stays around until it's all used.)

Got a lot of great screenshots, including one where the
lone head is beginning to fall underwater, vanquished, and
"Badge Earned" is in shiny letters on screen :-)

Strangely, both my highest characters picked up Ectoplasmic
a while back, when they were in the level 25-30 range,
and lots of missions in Talos and such. In fact, I think
I got ALL my badge progression in Talos alone.

What really felt great to me during and after the battle,
was that it was very comic booky. "Oh no, a Giant Monster
is attacking Indepedence Port!" "Look, up in the sky, it's
a bird! No, a plane, no, it's [herogroup name]! They'll
save us! But wait, they aren't making a dent in Lusca!
But look over there, it's [herogroup name 2] and [3] and
[4]! They've saved us! Yay!"

Lusca was at least a good 10-15 minutes of work after
we got there, and we were latecomers.

Some monster spawning needs adjusting though. Having
taken many heroes through Perez Park at low and high levels,
I've not once seen the Kraken in 9 months of play.

Yet one of my first Winter Lords was found in Perez,
before they were a dime a dozen in all zones.

Anyways, make sure Broadcast is showing in one of your
two windows, and hang out in a desired zone. You can always
work on your Kill Skuls, [Bone Daddy defeats] and
Hellspawned badges in Perez while you're waiting on the
Kraken to show up.

Re: Where have all the monsters gone?

I ve have been looking for Kracken and Adamaster alot as of late. And have yet to see them which is funny cuz I have bared witness to the luska spawn 3 times an hour!And seen alot of the ghoust ship.So mabe they can slow down Luska and speed up the other spawns. but then again I am just thinking again and Ive been told to stop doing that do to smoke flowing from my ears

Re: Where have all the monsters gone?

I was hopping around Talos today on the Liberty server and saw the ghost ship sailing through the middle of town. Haven't encountered any of the others yet.

Re: Where have all the monsters gone?

Ghost Ship is spawning everyday it seems like. Everytime I'm on and going through Talos I see it floating through the City. Now if it does spawn everyday, is there any chance that Kraken/Paladin/all other Monsters spawn once every day?

Re: Where have all the monsters gone?

Well I've seen Luska about 20 times in a days play and the Ghost ship nearly as much but all the others are very rare it seems. I still haven't found Paladin, Adamastor, Kraken and a lot of other monsters but others are as common as a Blood Brother Slicer.

RE: Where have all the monsters gone?

The Paladin

Just a little FYI … I just caught the Paladin Spawning, it was the first time I have seen it spawn. I have arrived as its finished and even midway but never saw it spawn. So here is my account.

First of the three sites only one had a gear pile in it, it was the biggest gear pile I had ever seen. When I had passed it there were some clockwork standing around but nothing out of the ordinary. I checked the other two sites and then came back as the other two were absolutely empty.

Next I saw the construction spawn and two groups of clockwork mostly cogs and oscillators. After that all bets were off, and the rest was fighting.

Note: with the new “Run Away” AI it’s hard to pin down the waves unless you kill them as they spawn. Having a Warshade Nova was handy for taking out the waves.

I’m not sure that the gear pile was the key but it was the biggest one I had ever saw.
