Guild Wars 2

Currently, in Hidden Lake of Brisban Wildlands, there are various bandit spawns that run to the waypoint area – dubbed Seraph Observers Waypoint and killing off all the NPCs. The respawn rates are increadibly fast and I have never entered the area where those NPCs were not down. The “Seraph” camp is always swarmed with bandits and the waypoint is never contested.

This is a deathtrap waiting to happen for anyone using that waypoint. And even if someone manages to kill all current bandits at the camp, they won’t have much time to heal, recharge skills, or leave before more bandits come down on them. First time I was there I tried clearing the camp and was fighting for about 15 minutes as bandits continued to come one after another until I eventually just gave up, having completed the heart while trying to revive the heart NPC.

Furthermore, there are ghost NPCs you can talk to throughout the area – and most of them are near or in the path of those bandits.

This kind of spawn rate should only exist for events, and need to be reduced. I know there are a handful (if not a bit more) of respawn rates which are too fast, but this is a specific example and the one that needs changing the most that I know of.

Granted this post was created months ago, but we still have this problem.
Even if a few players push back against the Bandits there’s barely a second before the swarming begins anew.

Still a problem with the spawn times, I want to revive all the NPCs but I have to clear the endless amount of bandits before I can do that. A-Net should really fix this spot, I can’t last more than 1 minute fighting these guys. Plus the Veteran in the area prevents me from even talking to the heart NPC because it’s on the path to the heart from the waypoint and is near impossible to beat alone what with all of the bandits spawning ridiculously every 5 seconds.
