Controlling the mobs around your manor

GI in their wisdom seems to have a new method of spawning mobs around your manor.

It used to be I could visit a friend who had Snatchins and banish them until my heart content and they would just keep respawning. I really loved the stuck mobs before they fixed that bug. Now when you banish a mob at a Friend's manor, the mob does not respawn, so after banishing 15 mobs, the friend's manor will be empty. You have to go next door, then return to respawn the 15 mobs again.

Similarly, there are 15 mobs around your manor. When you banish a mob around your manor a random mob respawns, not the same as the one you banished. This is different than it used to be when you banished a Tripod, a Tripod would respawn. Now if you banish a Tripod, a robot may respawn in its place.

So the secret to getting a good group of mobs around your manor is to only banish bad mobs. Do not banish Tripods, as they will disappear and be replaced by something possibly much worse. Do banish your Robots and Snatchins and hope that they are replaced by a better mob.

So in general, do not banish any good mobs around your manor, go to a friend's manor to do your banishing. If you banish good mobs around your manor, you will end up with all robots, which helps nobody.

Another good rule of thumb, save all your oil cans for banishing robots around your manor. Do not banish robots around friend's manors, as they will just respawn anyway.

NOTE: This does not seem to work for all manors. If you have a quest ongoing, that may effect your respawn it seems. I have completed all quests and kill acheivements except robots.

Mobs currently around my manor:
Blackbeard
Destroyer x2
Joe the Farmer x3
Little Green Men x3
Octopus
Seahorse x2
Snatchin-Seafarer
Tripod x2
Xenophage

The full moon is back and I have respawned new mobs.

I now have the following mobs:
Ancient Mummy
Dark Adept
Dominatrix
Dreadful Maniac
Homunculus
Mummy
Phantom
Priestess of Chaos
Snooty Succubus x2
Stone Gargoyle
Swamp Creature
Zombie

And I kept:
Blackbeard
Snatchin-Seafarer

Enjoy, may the drops be with you!

Whatever I do, I cannot get a monster to come out! I keep banishing Thieving Snatchin & it comes right back. same with Gypsy Boy and any other gypsy I have...banish...it comes right back. The other mobs are aliens & a few robots. What can I do?

@PegWalt:
Yes, this happens to some people. The only explanation I have is that you have a Gypsy or Snatchin' quest that needs to be completed. But it could be another GI bug which hits random people. I know some high level folks that have no quests and the same problem you have.

Also some folks do not get the Full Moon event. You should have a 14 day timer on the right of your manor if you got the event.

I guess I'm one of those lucky ?! ones. I've completed all quests. I have the Full Moon Event and have completed all the FM quests. I am working on the 5th medal for the Gypsy achievement.

In my manor I also have Joe Farmer & Snatchin Seafarer & Seahorse.

Thanks for responding.

I've also completed full moon quests and event. When new full moon event pops up, I don't see any monsters in my manor. But when I banish robots, aliens or gypsy women, some monsters come out It doesn't work with gypsy boy, gypsy or snatchins, but it does (at least for me) with aliens, robots and gypsy women (not the gypsy girl though, just woman and old woman) Hope this can help you get some monsters too! Happy hunting all

I just got a slew of mobs from new quests if anyone needs some zombies, mummies, etc to banish.
