RE: Factual error in main page:[edit]

Except for the bottom deck of the Emma May, the Etheral Undead are present at all times, subjet to the ordinary (it seems) respawning rules. This is amply confirmed by repeatedly harvesting them. This seems unlikely to be an idiosyncracy of my installation. I run plain vanilla Game of the year, with everything enabled, and the applicable official patches.

Since editing the main page would involve structural changes, I do not care to try my inexperienced hand at it, at least for now, and would prefer to leave it to one of the "fat cats".

Are you just talking about changing the information for the Emma May? Because that is the only place where non-quest-specific ethereal undead are that are said not to respawn (note that only that section of the page says that certain undead do not respawn; all other undead mentioned do respawn, according to the page). Does the top deck of the Emma May have respawning undead? If so, how many? Forgive me if my wording isn't too clear, I'm not completely certain what you mean. Vely►t►e 17:06, 18 November 2012 (GMT)
I am stating, that I have found the 5 etheral undead, 1 in the captains cabin, 2 on the upper deck where you enter, and 2 on the middele deck, present at all times (except of course if it is less than 72 hours since I last killed them). Additionally, of course, you find "Gable_the_Traitor" on the bottom deck during the quest.
It seems, that nobody will give you the reference necessary to start the quest before level 3 or 4 , and even before that you can find, and subsequently travel to, the Mouth of the Panther, enter the Emma May, and harvest the (at that level) Ghosts. After the end of the quest you can do the same. I do it regularly.
I have only barely tried to use the construction set, so I don't want to try at least as of now, but it should be easy for a "wizard" to verify, that the undead are a permanent feature and respawn. Lasse.oestergaard.dk (talk) 21:36, 6 December 2012 (GMT)
