The Vyx spawn was broken. The join game function is fixed and waiting on Apple to approve.

[Kindread]

I think Vyx spawn was on purpose as a fun event for all us farmers.

EDIT: On another note, they changed the Close Encounters map for AO3. P'Othrozz doesn't spawn where he usually does but there's a teleportal that takes you inside the pyramid where you fight him and about 6 other blue aliens.

Interesting...
While I am glad that Apple is rethinking their rating system (I hate seeing games show up on top with 2 stars just bc a lot of people downloaded them), it's sad to see our free plat go bye-bye :(

[DOAPSaint]

So how rare is vyx's spawn usually? and is his drop rate the same then?

[Ayrilana]

Not rare enough since the market is flooded again. They need to make it so that the witch, prince, and shadow demon are ALWAYS up. This will prevent a bear from rushing it and/or at least slow down the runs. Either that or make it a rarer spawn and lower the drop rate.

[DOAPSaint]

How many runs does it take for one to spawn? And so the drop rate is still really good i guess
