The recent changes to Crag's Peak has got me exploring episode 2 in a new way. For instance, I have never considered going to Granthorn before swearing allegiance to a city. My question is specifically about sea road. That map is huge and has Krete (probably my least favourite group of monsters to fight) and I am wondering if I clear it before picking a city if it will respawn at the start of episode 3? Just to clarify, I do not mean the respawn where Volpa are added and the zone resets, I mean a respawn where I would have to clear the zone again to get to Granthorn to start the Fang quest.

Not that I recall, unless something had changed. Sea Road only ever had two fights for me. Krete and Volpas.

matrim - it does not respawn with Krete. Also, once you reach Granthorn, use the fast boat travel between the two locations!

But-but… I like hiking! Lol - your choice  I am working on adding some options to go directly to the Freeport river spot from Brunehorn, Granthorn and the River Outpost once you get back there. |

To add to the subject on respawning,
I went to gholla outlook, went through the whole map of frozen underroad then did the stroyline leading upto the events with an old "friend". Came out victorious and then after I went to travel back to Braeyshalum the whole map had respawned, both monsters and also chests/crystals. I noticed this because I had cleared the whole map before and I noticed that I could see red and blue chests on the map and also blue and red crystals that I had previously looted.
Now I am not complaining at all, I got 3 extra blue chests, 2 red chests, 2 moonstones and 1 red thingie (iirc) but I feel that this was not supposed to happen. (Or maybe it did and then I am wrong.)
Also waning moon pass and brelim peaks had a full respawn of monsters/chests.
Not sure if this is supposed to happen in the story, especially since I am waltzing through at level 26/27 and having 4-7 level 22 spiders/beetles/dogs spawn feels weird.
Anyway just sharing, not sure if it is out of the ordinary.
With kind regards,
Rashar.

Rashar - yep, that is fully intentional! As you pass through the story at different times, you'll encounter monsters above and below your level, it is highly dependent on the ordering you play the content. Whenever a region respawns its monsters, it also respawns its chests and moonstones.
