Breach pestilence event: can't find last 2-3 enemies to finish the pestilence. This is not fun at all

I recently just did my first pestilence. It was in the sewers and I was roaming around for about 20-25 minutes just to find the last mob I needed to kill.
I would like if there’s some sort of indicators as to where mobs are when you hit a threshold on the meter.

I was thinking to be fair and balanced at 5-10% left of the meter, the game highlights the mobs or something of that nature. I guess I was babied by POE elites highlighted, but I really was upset when I had to spend 25 mins roaming around.

Shallows breach event: can’t find last 2-3 enemies to finish the pestilence. This is not fun at all.

1 enemy left, it must be somewhere in the stupid cave but i can’t find him. this should NOT happen. we should not have to kill EVERY enemy in the event. 75% should be enough otherwise this bullshit happens

i have now searched every secret place too, the mission is bugged. Devs need to fix this. Or at least have the enemys of the respawn after 30 mins.

I don’t think I ever had to kill every single one of them, could be wrong but I usually completed the pestilence before exploring the whole area.

The easiest fix will be to have the skull icon just like the boss when you are down to say…last 5.

This happened to me as well, leave the area and come back later on (like an hour or so later) and some will respawn

You never have to kill all the enemies in the area. Which means that you probably missed some part of the place (or maybe even didn’t discover it).

Shallows is just dark underground + a piece of the beach.

I searched all of the places you mentioned

it’s bugged, plenty of people have experienced it

During pestilence spread there should be more enemies than needed. I have been running around the Shallows for over 10 minutes trying to find them and yes I did check the cellar area. This would be easily fixed by having more enemies than needed so you don’t run around trying to find them.

Doing the pestilence event in nameless pass. Don’t you think that having to kill every single mofo in the area is a bit too much to complete the event?
It takes too much time and to many runs to the house to save/sell stuff all the time.
Not fun. Make it half to complete the even, and have 2 events in different areas for example in one day

Did it again today. What a bad not fun experience. its just too long. And you have to not miss any enemies??? aweful

Hey, heads up. you don’t have to kill every single mob in the area. If you fully did the surveyor quests you would notice there is a surplus of mob. The method of which to go about clearing the nameless pass would be to begin by the mountain side (area that leads to initial quarry lift prior to opening gates and such) and then following into the quarry, skipping the jumping part and then clearing pestilence by Caylen Gate. and tip becareful with Corruption Burning. I rolled max tier with insanely negative debuffs and couldn’t clear for about 4 hours of grinding for embers to roll armor. shit gets HECTIC

maybe provide sculls on the map for the last 10 enemies if not making the number of enemies needed much lower

I completely agree, it’s more difficult finding all enemies than defeating the boss.
But you can spawn the boss immediately, without killing all mobs, by offering a Torn Effigy in the fire.

So i killed all mobs. took me an hour. then i go to the boss. its the crucible boss top left. Kills me and event ends, no loot. FML

There is a couple of FML moments in the game, hope they get ironed out. My biggest FML moment in this game is being thrown off edge in crucible. What rogue-lite game has a mechanic that can instantly end your run. But otherwise I love the game, so good and much potential

Pestilence doesn’t get cleared until you kill the boss. If it did, then it’s another bug.

honestly i agree, when pestilence comes out it doesn’t feel like it, the monsters have changed, they change every location reset anyway. I really miss hustle or threat, and searching for enemies is very tiring. sometimes it seems to me that having cleared the entire location I have only come halfway. sometimes killing a rat brings 10% and killing a big guy 2 or 3%. in fact, it is much more convenient to summon the boss using effigy. 5 per day is more than half of the locations, which is quite enough for me
