Salem

I play one character that lives in a place of high spawn rate inside logs and stumps. I can always check them and find new bugs, arrows, worms, webs... this is decently populated region, with lots of leantos and some claims...

Another character is traveling for a couple days and the logs and stomps are absolutely empty. It's an empty region, the few leantos are empty and no bases were seen...

Is it right to conclude that some regions are just better at spawn rates?

no

a region that hasnt had any players active spawns nothing.
it needs to be activated/active to start spawning stuff.

Indeed, the more people walking through an area of the world, the better chance the logs have to spawn things.

so my single alt repeatadly walking through the same area will not increase the spawn rate then

He will. The people need not be unique.

For anyone paying attention this is one of the better ways to find bases in Salem, check the logs.

welp, guess I'll have to pack my bags and run for the hills, thanks for the info
