Hello guys, like many of you, I participated last year on the Winterlight Solstice event, and killed the Percht Queen multiple times, and to do so, I had to kill some Bonny Bunnies to get the frozen carrots. But in order to do so, I had to get up as close to the server save as possible, because it was the only time when the percht island was alone (or at least not so crowded) and could find some bunnies on my server.

I noticed that their respawn time wasn't like the other creatures in the island (Schiachs and Perchts) respawn time.

I wanted to know if it is a:

  • Time dependent respawn (every X minutes a Bonny Bunny appears on the island)
  • Random creature respawn (kind of like the calamary/Crustacea Gigantica spawn, where if you kill a calamary the next respawn might be another calamary or a Crustacea Gigantica)
  • Respawn based on some mechanics you have to do on the island (perhaps summoning and killing an animated snowman, or using all the "Barrels Filled with Hammers")
  • Or if it is a respawn which can be blocked if players are around it, which might be the reason why it is so difficult to find one bunny when the island is too crowded, with tens of players running around in circles trying to find one.

I tested respawn of Bonny Bunnies  today for some time and the result of my test looks like this:

XX:10 - the end of the raid

XX:21 - start of the raid (after 11 minutes)

XX:31 - the end of the raid (after 10 minutes)

XX:43 - start of the raid (after 12 minutes)

XX:55 - the end of the raid (after 12 minutes)

XX:06 - start of the raid (after 11 minutes)

XX:19 - the end of the raid (after 13 minutes)

I tried to make as accurate stats as possible, but believe me, it's hard on a crowded server, so please take into account that results may vary about +/- 1 minute.

Generally, raid of Baleful Bunnies takes 10-13 minutes and the break between raids takes also 10-13 minutes.

Exact locations where you can find Bonny Bunnies you can find here:

Note, that you can meet Baleful Bunnies and Bonny Bunnies alternately! In practice it's like: sometimes I meet 2 Bonny Bunnies, sometimes one Baleful and one Bonny Bunny, sometimes two Baleful Bunnies, or only one Bonny/Baleful Bunny... finally we can meet none of them in the presented above places.

Worth to mention, that you can block the spawn of bunnies on a particular location by standing there. I tested it on the most eastern location next to the tree and none of the bunnies appeared around me.
