Summary0020440: Swarm enemies are pushovers compared to other things that spawn on the lower floors
DescriptionThe basic "swarm + swarm leader" pack continues spawning all the way down to about floor four, when it's appearing alongside things like Gold Guard Fleas, Aegis enemies, Chargers, and other horrible bastards. I think it should be removed from the spawn pool a little earlier and replaced with more Myriad packs, which are a far more appropriate challenge.

I stopped the weakest variant from seeding on floor 4, when before it was set to floor 6. And also set Myriad to seed one floor earlier at floor 4. That should sort it. Thanks!

Awesome. Myriad are a LOT of fun to fight, much more so than the weaker swarms.

Unfortunately, I've had to revert this change for now because it may have caused problems due to a lack of enemies seeding on those floors on the very first few runs. Sorry about that. I'm going to leave this one for Logorouge, who set up the latest enemy seeding, who will be taking a look at this issue. Thanks!

Alright, so I tweaked the spawning rules a bit.
The easy versions of the Swarm were spawning for way too long. Now you'll see less Swarms and the nastier versions will show up earlier.
I also tweaked the tougher version of the Gemini enemy to spawn earlier.
I've left the Myriad as an after-Warden exclusive but the above enemies should spawn at a more appropriate level now.
