Anyone know if the spawn cycle or route for the Giftboxes take changed?
Been at Baskin Lake from midnight to 3:16 (in game time), near the '..takes more nerve..' bin and I've heard not a whisper of 'Fill the box!'

Edit: Turning this into a notification when I'm hunting should anyone like to join. I'm not looking for drops, just count for badges.

You have to be there earlier. The 3:00am wave only spawns if the lake has a certain population, which nowadays is a rare thing.

The first wave tends to spawn at about 9:00pm gst. But I will warn you, make sure you have iron.

Thanks for the info, I would think Saturday night as a good time for something like a population spawn, but it's good to know.

I've found friday nights better for population. You also have to factor in, you might have competing hunters... like me. xP

Well, if we were on the same server. Though in that case it's better to crew, right? Doesn't that improve the drop rates? Or has that changed too?
Also, I think I've done eb/ss runs with you, on my main account, though I think that was well over a year ago.

Competing crews/players causes each to only receive a percentage of the overall loot drop. So crewing together negates that as two crewed players are seen as one entity instead of two when it comes to loot computation.

Crewing also has the added benefit of increased survivability, given that a pair can carry more buffs and heals. And with more attacks it means you can take on more boxes at a time for faster hunting.

I'm mostly going for the badge anyway, but drops are a nice bonus.
