Talk:Monolith

The Death Dot Idea
I did some research on whether or not death dotting (players standing on the same spot) reduces the number of shades spawned in a monolith room.

To conduct this research I formed a group of five people, activated the monolith and let it die, and noted the number of shades that spawned in the first wave. I did this five times while everyone was standing together, then five times with four people on a death dot and one person away, five times with three people on a death dot and two people away, so forth, until all five people were spread throughout the room.

My results are as follows:

It seems to me that death dotting is not a myth and actually does reduce the average number of shades spawned per wave. Any other thoughts/research ?
