Summary0006629: Ocean Shallows underground boss rooms allow too many monster spawners.
DescriptionDue to the massive size of the underwater boss rooms the number of spawners in them can be entirely absurd, I have a boss room with 18 spawners in it, this would be bad enough on its own but coupled with the relative difficulty of the enemies that are spawned by them it is just insane, 15 respawning blue whales is not something anybody should have to fight.

I agree. Whales are tough, which makes for a good fight, but with their respawners they are together much tougher than the actual boss, or even an overlord.

In addition the sheer numbers of spawn they create will bring my computer to its knees if I'm not careful.

Compounding the issue is that the blue whales spawn enemies themselves. 10-20 blue whales shooting 2 mini whales at you every few seconds, coupled with the boss's 5 or 6 spawns, that's a whole lot of stuff!

This is a huge problem for me as well. I've got a relatively high end computer, and when the whale spawn (or whatever those high-speed fish are) are launched out of 15 whales at a time, framerate goes to literally 3 or 4 per second.

Correction: I just hit 1/3 FPS. Can't really do much at this point.

Thanks!

* Underwater boss rooms will now seed 1/3 as many monster nests as they previously did. Please let us know if this still doesn't seem right balance-wise in the next version.
