I made a similar post on the maintenance's thread, but i don't think many ppl saw it, so i'm making its own thread for people to discuss and test it out.
So... from my understanding Spotlight is supposed to double monster spawns, together with exp and drops (or somewhat increase).
There was an improvement in the exp per kill, that's why i was expecting for more kills/minute as well. But i don't feel like there was an improvement on how fast i could finish the bounty boards. And here is why:
I play GX, and I have been able to kill an average of 38 Big Bells per EDP (90 seconds), and it usually takes me 4 EDPs to finish a bounty board. When i'm lucky with mobs, i can kill up to 45 or 50 Big Bells within an EDP, and when i'm unlucky i usually kill at least 25~27. And it has been like that for a long time.
And it actually is slower than usual now. When there are few people on the map, i finish the 150 kills with around 20~60 seconds spare on my 4th EDP. But now that there are a lot more people than usual on the map, i barely finish it within 4 EDPs ( there were 2 rounds i only did around 147 kills, and finished it without EDP). I often teleport to either empty parts of the map, or places with only 1 or 2 Big Bells, or somewhere someone just killed a mob, or somewhere with someone killing something. And i barely ever find an actual good mob.
I was expecting a double spawn to make it possible for me to average 50 kills per EDP, but i still am killing around 38 Big Bells per EDP. And there even were some EDPs that i could only kill 30 or less Big Bells. And i still have to fwing a lot of times to find mobs.
This is why i believe it might not yet have double spawn. And i would like you to please take a look and, if possible, give me a confirmation whether it is double spawn or not (and if it is supposed to be like this).
It would be nice if some of the GMs could take a look into it, do something about it if necessary, and tell us.
Thanks in advance!
