2. 🏹 Additional Outpost Bugs: Mission Zone Issues and the Annoying Sniper Boss

3. 🚧 Outpost Respawn Issues and Progression Challenges
- ✅ Outposts do not respawn due to tamed creatures being too close, even 600m away.
- ⚠️ The lack of outpost respawns hinders progression, as it is the only method to obtain sigils.
- ✅ It is suggested that outposts should drop double the sigils and red items to compensate for the respawn issues.

|---|---|
| Reaparición de puestos de avanzada | Las criaturas domesticadas cercanas impiden la reaparición, lo que dificulta la obtención de sigilos. |
| Recompensas | Las recompensas de sigilos son insuficientes debido a los problemas de reaparición. |
