36 vaettirs on Hard Mode problem

(note: I tried searching and posting it in a farming section in glacial stones topic but so far no anwser and Id like to solve it asap)

thing is : now two of my friends have the same problem - they are both Elementalists that used to farm them a lot in Jaga Moraine and always had 60 of them in HM, but for some strange reason now they only have 36 :/

any ideas what might have trigger the sudden change and how to fix this ?

Not sure - always had 36 on one side of the shrine and 24 on the other, but haven't been there for a few days. If this is true, all I can think is that a recent update screwed the spawning code.

its a quest that is preventing others to spawn...

forgot the name of it...

no its not the update for sure my friend had that problem a long time ago, and its not anything time based <like a magic punishment for overfarming the place :P> because now that he checked it things are still the same

I also think it must be triggered by some quest but both of them say they dont have Blood washes blood nor Flames of the bear spirit in quest log :/
<I will ask them again to be sure>

I think Blood Washes Blood prevents the 24 from spawning, I remember having the same problem.
