Editing Spawn Distributions (section)

==Developer's Notes on Spawn Distributions==
"The Ranges noted on the Monster Distribution Maps do not mean that the difficulty in the different areas is uniform. Some areas are harder than others. In general, the deeper you get into a certain area, the harder it is to survive there. That doesn't mean the fringes of an area won't be challenging, but you can expect to have an easier time on the edge of an area than in the center of it."

The Olthoi North, for example. While at its core you may find things like Olthoi Warriors, on the fringes of the region you will find monsters better suited to a level 40 character (such as Olthoi Soldiers).

The Map is not meant to be a strict guidline of where players should hunt, it is meant as an estimate of challenge. If you want to have an easier time while hunting, drop down to the next lowest area, or hunt on the fringe of the area statted for your level."[http://forums.ac.turbine.com/showpost.php?p=42597&postcount=4]
