Wolvern spawn rate appears to have changed
Why am I hunting squirrels in Nivalis? Because hunting wolverns just got a whole lot more boring. There was a spot in Nivalis where wolverns spawned almost one right after the other died - it was great hunting for warriors. I actually warped to Nivalis hoping to make a quest out of hunting the wolverns - something like trying to reach 10% exp hunting wolverns, but they spawn so slowly now that it's not realistic, and not fun - at all. What was fun is now quite boring. While others were running the new quest it was nice to be able to decimate a few dozen wolverns while watching the action above. Now all the action is above, one could sit, and wait, and wait, and wait for a wolvern to spawn. I think I understand why it happened, people were killing wolverns and getting enough animal bones to feed the wolf quicker than it might have been intended... but it's 1 lousy quest, and a bit of a ridiculous one that depends a lot on speed or group effort rather than time in. The wolvern area was fun because you didn't need to be really fast to get a lot of kills, the wolverns spawned fast enough that you could rack up a bunch of kills even if you were slow as molasses.
