Pilgrims, what possessed you to make them this rare?

Ok so personally been hunting the madera one now for over 10 hours, and yeah I can afford to spend that kinda time finding pilgrims, even if I find it quite annoying..

However I am running into a suprising amount of people with the exact same problem, which makes me realise, making em this rare when it is a TIMED pursuit, is a big mistake.. you cannot expect casuals to log the amount of time that is needed to find all of these, it is completly unreasonable..

I have been fighting to keep having this kinda content that disaper when new episodes air, but this will only work if pursuits for these episodes are something even casuals can realisticly finish within the time given.

PS: yes I know a bunch of their spawn spots, aswell as the need to clear out nearby emergencies..

I will likely be able to find mine eventually, because I have a absurd amount of free time, but at this rate there are plenty of people who will not have a chance in hell at getting them all, which will kick up a even bigger ****storm in regards to episodic content.

So please Trion, look into making these much more common before it is to late.

Also, when you insist on holding back C&H, you seriously "finish" that pursuit for everyone.

I agree... I spent a few hours Monday night and another 5 hours last night trying to find those elusive pilgrims. Actually managed to do the San Fran one really quickly and shortly after that ran across the Mt. Tam event but good luck finding the other two. Even found a quick guide showing where they are found and spent hours driving back and forth between the two and all around those areas.... couldn't tell you how many dozens of "Feeding Frenzy" and "Skitterlings!" events I completed. Even took out several Monarchs on my own but the Raiders & 99er events were so few and far between and not once did I ever see the Armistice Celebration or Burn Baby Burn events.

learn 2 find..

hehe

seriously it was hard to find especially the one "99ers in madera"
however i tho to myself, madera and 99ers doesn't make any sense..

after the 5hr maintenance
tooltip changed to 99ers in marin.
than we found it in 30 min...

pro tip: episode pursuit emergencys are not random spawn.. they are static spawn and they share spawn point with other emergencies..

the marin one is much easier, speaking of Madera/sausalito one.

I remember way back in the day in EQ, going to a zone every hour to see if a specific mob had popped. Then I realized why it hadn't. If nothing dies/despawns, a new one won't take it place. This was around 10 years ago, maybe longer.

Glad to see you were killing off other events, really strange it hasn't popped for you yet though. I found the Mt Tam one pretty fast, about 10 mins of hunting right after I got the data recorder, about an hour to find one in Madera - the first one I found despawned for a major arkfall halfway through. Seem to occur a lot around the Crater.

I AFKd for 4 hours at Overpass (sick, took a nap) and came back to find the San Francisco event completed. Okay.

madera/sausalito is disguised as pilgrim picnic..
Fast travel Bug n Chug
start driving towards north and do not use the road
use off-road
you will see a group of pilgrims dancing next to fire and tents
go dance with them after the dance raiders will ambush

approximately 500meters north-west of bug n chug(or maybe 250 i'm not that good with distance)

Found most of them within 10 minutes. The last one, the 99er took me a little longer :p At least 1.5 hour.
