Anyone have the current borderland ruins spawn timers?

For some reason googling it all I get are really old results, like back when spawns happened at 27:00 and such.

Does anyone have the current set of spawn times for borderland ruins? Preferably for both full alliance and single party modes.

72 and 24-man matches have the same spawn timers

The first wave happens at 19:00. The spawn time for the later waves is depending on when the last drone of the previous wave was killed.

If the last drone of the first wave went down at, let's say, 18:45, that means the next wave will be at 14:45. It's always 4 minutes between waves.

The Big Node is always spawning at 10:00.

Hey, thanks for posting that.

time to make those macros to notify alliance!

what if last small drone is took down at 12:00?
- at 10:00 big one shows up and then at 8:00 the small ones appaer?

if it is true, then it might happen that both smalls and big ones spawn at 10:00 and the small ones around that time, right?

That's right ^^

what are shatter and seize timers or mechanism then?

shatter

1st big crystal 19.00

1 or 2 big crystals 16.00 or 15.00

1 or 2 big crystals 12.00 or 11.00

this is the usual pattern except when all the small crystals spawn at the start , than i think the 1st big crystal activate at 15.00, not sure.

theres also a 24 map whitout big crystal.


seal rock\seize

3 nodes spawn at 19.30 , quality and position is completly random , onemore node spawn when one dry up.


ciao ciao.

So SHATTER has 2 possible starts? One with all smalls and one with none or few smalls? If it is the first route then we have first big at 19, second with/or third big bewteen 16 and 15 and then 1 or 2 big between 12 and 11, does this mean that in the meanwhile, if a big don't spawn, the smalls could, if not at the big times, at random times?
The second route is less known i guess, we could wait more players sharing infos.

for SEAL ROCK, 3 nodes at 19.30, is it always? on ALL matches? and do u know how much time pass between each spawn?

For 24-man matches, 3 nodes can be active at the same time. In 72-man, 4 nodes can be active. When one despawn, it takes about 10-15 seconds before a new one appears.

A and S rank nodes has a higher chance of spawning the longer the match gets. After 15 min, it's pretty much guaranteed.

Shatter 72 actually has 3 opener :

1° every small crystals activate right at the start, delayed 1st big crystal spawn

2° one small crystal at the biginning and big crystals spawn with usual pattern

3° six small crystals spawn , usually two small close to each gc base ,usual big crystal pattern activation


for what i know and see , one or a couple of smalls crystals spawn every min ,like 19.00 ,18.00 and so on.

The Shatter information is almost correct.

When the big crystals spawn is mostly determined by the first 15 seconds of the game in a 72 man match.

If all the small crystals spawn at 19:45, then the big ones will be at 14:00, 12:00, 10:00 and 8:00.

If some combination of small crystals spawn at 19:45, then the first big one is always at 19:00. The next one has two options: 16:00 or 15:00. If it's 16:00, then the one after that is 12:00 and the last one is 8:00. If it's 15:00, then the next one is 10:00. One of the spawns is going to be a double big, but it's random which of the two times the game picks.

The small ones will spawn randomly throughout the game seemingly around the minute marks. I've never really tracked them that closely. In any game, whatever ice is left on the board at the 8:00 mark is guaranteed to spawn.

24 man matches are a little different in that the map has either all bigs or all smalls.

For smalls, first is always at 19:45 and 8:00 is the latest one can spawn. They'll never all spawn at 19:45 like they can in a 72 man match.

For bigs, they always follow the 19:00, 16:00, 12:00, 8:00 pattern. You'll never get a double spawn.
