3 Honey Glades in 1 area

#1 Post by Adracko »

wow...that was fantastic for my splash damage alchemist, didnt even die
----edit
Went back to town after the 3rd, read some stuff on the forum and came back to find a 4th Honey Glade.
Was this designed this way? Im looking through the lua files and i cant find anything that says it is, I gotta be missing something.
I just had to get a screenshot as well...

Its a dead mans party cause no one lives forever due to a lack of weird science.

It's a forest vault, so yes it's intended.

Found 2 on my last run with a sun paladin - fun times ;).

I think possibly it being the same vault design is a bit of an error, but more than one or two vaults not so much. Though I think I should bring something up. There was one(1) time that I ran into a vault in amon sul (the one that is kind of like a wide symetric diamond) that had certain drops and npcs, and I found an exact replica of that vault again on a different part of that level. Same vault design, same npcs (I don't remember if they were the same level though), and the same loot. *shrugs* I could see how that is intended or could happen, but it was just weird.

The problem is some zones only have a few vaults they can spawn.

The game runs a check and says, "Do I spawn a vault?"

If the answer is yes and there's only one choice on the list you always get that vault.

How it determines how many vaults to spawn I'm not sure, but the process would be the same.

Four vaults means you got really lucky. Four of the same vault (in this instance) means we need to design more maps for Old Forest ;)
