JWA 1.12 Updated Spawn Mechanics!

Submit Feedback or Error

Introduction

Explorers! Patch 1.12 is live and the thing we have been looking forward to the most is the new spawn updates! In the patch notes, they hinted at a pretty large migration so we couldn't wait to get our hands on the code and see where everything moved! So where did everything move to and where can we find the new creatures? Check out all the changes below! 

Major Migration Changes

As we expected, there were some major shake-ups in the local spawns. A LOT more dinos went global and of course, we no longer have daily epic spawns. You can see the full breakdown of the changes in the next section, but basically all of the daily dinos went from their day to either global or a local spawn. We now have 15 epic creatures that spawn as global! This is a huge change. While we are excited to be able to scent daily dinos now, several local dinos were also moved to global, so it is going to be harder to target them. Also, note that epic hybrids have a different spawn pool than epic dinos so that could help when looking for these creatures. 

As far as the new dinos: Titantoboa Gen 2 (the rare snake) can now be found global Dawn/Dusk. The epic hybrid, Megalogaia is a global Anytime spawn. Woolly Rhino is wild in Local 4. We haven't seen Mammoth, Megaloceros, Allosaurus Gen2, Nasutoceratops, Blue, Mammoth or Titanboa (the new epic snake) in the code so those are not spawning in the wild outside of events.
