New World Boss Timer Affecting Quest Mob Spawn Rates?

in Alpha Two Bug Reporting
On the Server Vyra, NA, I have been waiting for the Quest Mob "Bone Crusha'" to spawn, I have not seen anyone fight it after todays server patches, and have not seen it spawn whatsoever after the patches. I have started a timer and am at about 45 minutes since standing in place waiting for the spawn. No end in sight.

The biggest issue is that this is a very popular starting zone quest and I have personally watched about 10 people wait and give up already.

This is a mob for the quest "The Boneyard Brigade" , where you "Recover the Record of Scout Eloris". all other mobs that drop the other items for this quest spawned for me in a timely manner.

    Same issue here. Also it doesn't help that its not very clear where it spawns.

    To add to this, all 'Named' mobs have had their respawn timers increased from 15~ minutes to 1 hour. This feels pretty bad, not sure if it's intended but it makes farming certain mobs significantly more tedious as you can literally only kill a handful now due to the respawn timers. I hope this is unintended and the change is reverted.

    Adding my vote to this too. When the servers went live this weekend, all was well at first. But as soon as the first patch got implemented (23rd Nov) there's been no more sight of Bone Crusha, nor after yesterday's patch. I've camped the spot and scoured all of the ruins of Aela, but to no avail. I hear the same from other players. It's not handy, as Bone Crusha is needed for several quests and commissions.

    Edit: This happened on the Aeterna server. I've just switched to the Castus server and there's no issues with Bone Crusha there. Just killed them and within a minute they respawned.
