There is a thread here that has discussed among some other things just how rare the spirits are.
I keep seeing people mention this problem, but I'm not seeing it. Sure, they're rare, and far less common than Sorceresses, Werewolves and Vampires, but I'm not noticing a lack at all. 6-man team on Tenacious, Duo on Heroic, Solo on Heroic - all of these options have been tried, and I was seeing a spirit every 10 doors or so. It doesn't take all that much time.

; Techbot_Alpha: Also, what Shadowe said. It seems he is still somewhat wise 
; Bull Throttle: Shadowe was unwise in this instance...; Rock_Powerfist: in this instance Shadowe is wise.; Techbot_Alpha: Shadowe is very wise *nods*; Zortel: *Quotable line about Shadowe being wise goes here.*
Wish I was - over about 12 hours of ToTing since Sunday - I've only seen about 6 and that is a mixture of team sizes - from solo to 8 man and zones - both sides. I'm just glad my main badgers picked them up last year.
Maybe its your name - and spirits only appear for other spirits.
Mind of Gaia lvl 50 Defiant's first Mind/Storm 'troller.
Deadly Doc 50 Dark/Dark Corr
and lots more on Pinnacle,Union and Defiant
Solo yesterday I was able to trick or treat for an hour solid before getting my first spirit so their spawning appears to be quite streaky at times.
Defiant 50�s: Generalissimo, Righteous Bob, Splortch, Brutus Cayuga
Union 50's: Chimera Obscura, Diet Anthracite, Grim Proctologist, Puny Little Minion, Raging Bitumen
In Soviet Russia, mission farm you!
Dare I say it? Dare I?
I dare.
I DEMAND A DATAMINE!
No, seriously, though, I agree that it seems to be very peculiar. Just because I'm not seeing a problem doesn't mean there isn't one. It would be useful if the devs could take a look at the spawn-rates for this particular enemy type and just check it against the code. If they say everything's fine, then everything's fine.
Though I expect they're too busy working on I14 stuff.

Spirits every 10 doors? You are very very lucky then Shadowe. As in extremely lucky.
You must have a friend inside the gm team. Admit it.
I apologise if I have missed the answer to this somewhere but...
Are ghosts in the ToT event meant to be THAT scarce? Or have I just not been on a big enough team for them to spawn?
Having been knocking on doors for a couple of hours last night and a further hour this morning I have seen ONE ghost. By my reckoning I will need to ToT for a further two and a half solid days before I get the buster badge...
