Pestilence enemies bug: not spawning

I got pestilence outbreak in The Shallows, i killed every enemy in the outside area, and in both caverns: left under the great bridge and right behind a waterfall, yet i still miss a good part of the bar. Went to the underground dark cave but there are no enemies.

Update: after closing the game and some time passed i came back and went to the crucible to cleanse the bugged area at 5th floor. I paid the npc and went out of the crucible, checked the map and pestilence was still there. Went again to the Shallows and saw that new enemies spawned.
Are pestilence zones supposed to respawn enemies? Serious question to understand if i can avoid the bug doing this.

Also: from that we get that the option to cleanse pestilence from the Senescal is also bugged, but don’t know if it doesnt work on bugged areas or could happen in general.

I had this same thing happen, same zone(shallows), I’ve cleared pestilence here 10+ times before so it’s not like I’m missing where enemies can spawn, the cellar seemed to be the problem for me because there were 0 enemies down there when I went to clear it. But my progress bar looks about the same, with about 20-25% remaining to clear.

here’s the files for me as well, hope this helps

Area full cleared however the spread progress does not match. Yes I’ve doubled checked the underground tunnel. It had only a single mob. My best guess is there was an issue with the enemy spawns?

i took the liberty of moving this here :wink:

ah shit my bad. didn’t see it

you are allowed one merger too :wink:

on thin ice and I only just got back! I’m in shambles

Shallows breach event: can’t find last enemy to finish the pestilence. Searched everywhere, all secret places too.
You need to change this to make is 70% of enemies killed FFS.
At least have the enemies respawn after 30 mins.
This is not fun at all.

I’m having the same issue. Been running around everywhere in The Shallows but nowhere to find the last thing to kill. Among the times I’ve run these pestilence clears in The Shallows, it’s always been a nuisance to find all the required monsters to clear the zone. This needs to be looked into.

I often clean the pestilence before full-clear the area, so it should have more than enough mob needed.
For The Shallows, did you search the cellar under The Shallows’ Whisper? That side area also count towards The Shallows

2nd time the enemies are not spawning in the Shallows cellar (pirate hideout). I don’t know if it is related, but the last time it happened I whispered back to town using the whisper next to the cellar entrance to sell stuff and then went back and went down and nothing there. As a result I had to wait for the area to respawn mobs to summon the pestilence.

I want to add to what some are saying here regarding the cellar in the Shallows (the Brine Vault). A friend and I were clearing the pestilence in the Shallows and after moving from east to west across the beach (and ending up at the damaged tower which leads down to the Brine Vault) we had removed enough enemies for the pestilence boss to spawn.

So, before moving back to the main beach to take on the boss, we decided to peek down in the Brine Vault to see if it was included as part of the Shallows pestilence (as the icon around the entrance to the Brine Vault on the map seemed to imply that it was). Sure enough, the pestilence screen effect was present in the Brine Vault as well, and it was populated with pestilence enemies which occasionally dropped sinew, marrow, etc. We cleared the Brine Vault and used the sewer tunnel in it to exit back to the beach at the Shallows (and then defeated the pestilence boss waiting for us there).

We’ve had the pestilence occur on the Shallows several times since that day, and every time we work to clear it we stop the Brine Vault (before fighting the pestilence boss). But it (the Brine Vault) is always empty with no enemy mobs. The pestilence effects are there, the resource nodes and loot spawns have properly refreshed, but there are never any enemy mobs in that zone It’s been empty ever since the first time we cleaned the pestilence version of it.
