More locations on the map vs. the site

Post by FyreStar » Wed Apr 12, 2023 9:25 pm

I ran around Apsaranta and mapped out all of the Dangerlily bushes they added in the new patch. I noticed lots of missing location links around site 10 when I was double checking it against what's on the site: https://aioncodex.com/us/npc/704028/

The red dots are locations of Dangerlilys and the blue x means it is a location listed on the site.

Ok, so I've checked for this gatherable and it has this internal name: STR_LDF9_FOBJ_Weed_RandomSpawn_1. Notice the "RandomSpawn" part.
Looks like it's spawned randomly and we have just a few fixed locations for it in the client. :unk:

Personally, I would think the "random spawn" part is describing what happens when you click to use the Dangerlily. It'll either be a friendly NPC or an enemy NPC at random that gets summoned and "pops out" of the bushes.
The Dangerlilys are always up on the map 100% of the time and they never disappear. After you click on one, it remains there and it's "respawn" just allows it to get clicked on again.
There are kill quests for defeating the enemy NPCs that pop out: [Elite] Suspicious Activity within the Grove (Asmo) https://aioncodex.com/us/quest/79215/ and [Elite] Shadow Hidden within the Grove (Elyos) https://aioncodex.com/us/quest/69215/

Still, this is an NPC and not a gatherable. Aion stores only certain part of NPCs in the client. Quite a lot are spawned by the server. Looks Like it's the case with this NPC. There are only 58 locations for this NPC in the client and all of them are displayed on the map at the moment.
