Earthquakes?
 

On Halloween 2018, Nilbog posted the following change under News & Announcements:

"0-3 Simulated Respawns will occur each month; 1-3 being the normal amount, and 0 existing as a possibility if we cannot do them at all."

Since then, I'm not sure we've had a single month with 2 or 3 quakes. 0-1 seems to be the norm. Are these automatic now since the Chardok 2.0 patch, or are they still manually triggered?

There is a thread about whether they are automated or manual. It seems most people are under the impression some are manually triggered. For instance, the one that happened the day before Mother's Day definitely seemed triggered. Similarly, the one that happened the evening of the new ToV raid mechanics release was 100% triggered, given it came with a message from Rog.

I think most people would enjoy more Earthquakes. I've only been around since the New Year so I'm sure there is a lot of history in this department that I am unaware of.

My ideal situation would be an earthquake week/repop week rotation:

Week 1 - Quake
Week 2 - Repops
Week 3 - Quake
etc.
etc.
etc.

But that's just me :)

Seems 0-1 falls between 0-3 move to resolved

It's supposed to say per year. Month is a typo and will be resolved in the next patch.

Majority are manually triggered by Nilbog, him and Rogean are the only ones that know when they are going to happen.
Rogean did one the other day that was pretty out of the blue and not part of Nilbog's normal cycle.

Be happy they happen at all.

Was that the one that he prepared memes for in ToV lol

The latest quake had exciting new yellow text without the BROADCASTS message.

That was the one where you said your patented "10 min" and he decided to spring it on that 10min mark for funsies?

Good times were had.

No not happy they happen. Because all earthquakes are america prime playtime.

With no earthquakes atleast most ffa raid targets will eventually space out and have more varied spawn time.

Cause rogean / nilbog aint gonna wake up at 4:29AM just to trigger EQ.
