Ghost of the Scrapyard (giant monster spawn)

[Ceili]

I was soloing tonight, trying to get Evil Ceili to 25, doing newspaper missions in Sharkhead Isle.

I ran up to the Rogue Isles Ferry as it was being attacked by, like, 50 Enraged Minors.  They just kept coming and coming ... throwing molotov cocktails at the guard drones.

I ran around looking for a boss or something when I came across The Ghost of the Scrapyard.

I spent a little while trying to coax bystanders into a team so we could take down the ghost, but no one wanted to try it ... so I tried all by myself.

I lasted like 30 seconds, lol.

Who's a fucker?  Ghost of the Scrapyard is a fucker.

I once was talking to a contact and I died because the Scrapyard spawn happened to walk by.  If you get near and they can see you they attack.  They meaning all 40+ of them.

Tonight, down by the Sharkhead docks, I saw some random guy and his bots fighting nothing. 

I stood and watched for a little while and he asked me for an SK (he was a lvl 12 and the invisible mobs he was fighting were, apparently, lvl 22s).  So I SK'ed him and asked him to explain what the hell was going on.

It seems every night, after the Scrapyard Ghost spawn disappears, his huuuge mobs stick around.  They gather around mission doors (like sewers and and trucks) but they're invisible.  My lvl 12 companion couldn't see these mobs but he could set his bots to auto agro and target the mobs through his bots.  I also couldn't see the mobs, but I could target them through his bots as well.  He had a dark cloud AOE thing that made "seeing" the mobs a little easier.

I got a crapload of XP off invisible enemies that couldn't fight back because technically they weren't there.

So if you're on CoV at roughly 4am EST, check out the Sharkhead Isle docks for some easy XP.
