Monster Density Patch Note Clarification
The PTR Patch Notes Update from a day ago raised some questions because of the vagueness on density changes for certain zones. Since the zones were not mentioned, Blizzard clarified a few minutes ago which zones in particular are getting changes and what kind of changes exactly.

In the latest PTR patch notes for build 16033, we noted that "certain areas in Act I and Act II have received further adjustments to Monster Density." We've seen some players ask what zones this change applies to, so here's a bit more information.

Zones that are bolded received a straight-up buff to their density.
Zones that are italicized were slightly nerfed.
All other zones had monster spawns adjusted to make them feel more "clumpy."

Act I:
  • The Lyceum
  • Cave of the Moon Clan Level 1
  • Weeping Hollow
  • Cathedral Level 1
  • Cathedral Level 2
  • Leoric’s Hunting Grounds
  • Whimsyshire
Act II:
  • Realm of Shadow
  • Dahlgur Oasis
  • Vile Cavern
  • The Storm Halls
  • The Unknown Depths
  • The Eastern Channel
  • The Western Channel
Thank you to everyone who's posted about the density changes so far; your feedback is incredibly appreciated. We're still fine tuning monster density across all Acts, so please be sure to keep sharing your thoughts and experiences from the PTR. :)
