I played the rattkin tree twice because my savefile mysteriously vanished. The first time I met lots of rattkin groups, and after my group killed the rattkin breeders, a horde of rattkin groups immediately advanced towards me. I had one tough battle in the breeders chamber to fight 30+ rattkins.
The second time however I didn't spot a single wandering rattkin, but instead swarms of wasps and spiders. Even after killing the breeders! It was only after using the "elevator" in the rattkin tree that I met the first group of rattkins.
I know that a szenario is set when I enter an area, but I didn't expect such a big difference. Did this happen by accident or is there a glitch in the program?

Except for fixed encounters, the mobs in any Zone are rolled when you enter. Sometimes i get one pack of Ratts and dozens of wasps; occasionally no Ratts at all, and other times a couple dozen Ratts and no wasps. If i'm trying to get a certain Ring, sometimes i will reload my entrance there to get more Ratts.
