Do gems respawn enemies

[ccd1977]

I am currently in a group where the leader told us not to pick up the gems because it makes enemies respawn. Is this true?

Not being sure which quest you are running I am not 100% sure, but I cannot think of a quest offhand that picking up anything makes enemies respawn.

col chamber in the vale. The gems spawn bats. Well, they seem to spawn anyway...irksome if you lack cleave or AoE attacks...

Its coallesence chamber. We were also told hirelings are offensive and take XP away from quests.

The leader was probably trying to fill the group for xp bonus week and the hireling takes a roster spot, so 5% potential xp hit

Well this weekend they do - they do not give the extra 5% xp per person in the quest. The offensive part varies from leader to leader.

As for the gems in coal chamber, not that I ever noticed but then again I never paid attn to it so possibly..

Hirlings no longer affect quest xp at all. There used to be a slight penalty when hirlings died, which was not in frequent.

As stated above, in coal chamber picking up gems spawns mobs, but I can't think of anywhere else that's true.
