    Its most likely because people are finding them soon after they pop.

    The way it seems to work is destroying a mirror stunts the growth of the beastmen in that region for a period of time. It doesnt appear to be the number of mirrors that matters, rather just weather or not one has been destroyed recently.

    Destroying a mirror before the last mini patch would cause the number of enemy forces to go down. Now, it just makes it temporarily stop rising.

    With mirrors up, the growth actually increases, but only slightly. We're getting 2.5-3 or so per hour with 1 mirror in Halvung, as opposed to the steady 2 per hour when there were none up. Also, to actually lower their numbers, or halt them entirely, you have to be kill a lot of beastmen in the area, since they also changed the decrease rate this morning. The reason Mamook and Arrapago Reef are behind Halvung on nearly every server is because there are better exp spots there. I'm sure killing imps at the camp there affects it, as they were one of the monsters that will attack the town. Puks and Raptors in Mamook, and Trolls, Flan, Wamouracampa and I think I saw Dahak in the DAT files (gogo big ass red dragons in town) for Halvung's attack.

    If the mirror doesn't get killed, we're looking at a Besieged on Remora between 1-2am PDT.

    They arent gonna just instantly start pouring into the city you know... the status will eventually change from "Training" to "advancing" and the beastmen need to travel over before the invasion begins. It gives players an oppertunity to whittle down the numbers before they arrive.

    pandy 97!

    edit: going by my post times, pandy went from 92 to 97 in exactly 1.5 hrs (although I didnt see it tick over to 92). That would indicate that assuming they start moving at 100, we will likely see besieged within the hour.

    Halvung @97 on carby. Some tard was exping there earlier and it had to go 93->94->93->94. Guess we gotta wait a little longer.
