Re: Tmappers attention!
Since this was brought up, and I've recently been working on a cartographer, I was wondering what the consensus was on when to axe the chest (i.e. - when do I know that no more monsters will spawn?). I had never been a tmapper in the past, but decided to give it a go and I recall people complaining about others not destroying the chests so I made sure I did it when I was out, but part of me was wondering if I axed it too soon and, had I waited a few more mins, would another monster or two have spawned? Anyway, just curious since we were on the topic. Any advice or suggestions from you tmap vets?

Once you've killed the original spawn, move a few loot items around and cycle the map (just re-dragging it in the container over and over). Cycling the map is usually 50-60% of the spawn. Once you keep cycling and nothing comes, grab your lewts and chop chop. I don't chop because I saw Linda complaining about this a while ago. So, you probably should do exactly the opposite of what I'm doing.

just record moving an item in the chest then let that loop for a few minutes while you kill whatever you 'milk' out of it standing beside the chest:) if you just dont get any spawn anymore for a while axe it and go
Re: Tmappers attention!
I was not aware you could cycle/move stuff around. Don't you get 100% of the spawn out of the chest by dry looting the whole thing?liinniejj wrote:just record moving an item in the chest then let that loop for a few minutes while you kill whatever you 'milk' out of it standing beside the chest:) if you just dont get any spawn anymore for a while axe it and go

You can kinda control the spawn. What I do on 4-5 is, after the chest pops, I kill the initial spawn, drop aDegamra wrote:I was not aware you could cycle/move stuff around.

loot bag/box whatever in the chest. Then load it from within the chest, most times something will spawn while you do this or by just moving items around in the chest will cause faster spawning. As you say you dry loot it, you are making it
spawn faster by removing items to [your] backpack.

Don't axe the chest and there will be less competition, lower map prices.
