What determines the spawn times for uplinks?
Ive noticed when I use the same links the timer changes from 10sec, 3sec, etc.
Is it the suit I choose to spawn in with or something to do with the battle?

I'm also confused. Spawn-Modifier stats don't make sense, because the timer keeps changing.

thought if your clone didnt bleed out you get to spawn quicker

Agreed, it appears that there is currently no rhyme or reason behind spawn times for uplinks, CRUs and objectives. |

ive heard this before but never tested it, one thing ive noticed is towards the end of the game spawn get shorter.
whether it due to amount of clones, points controlled, or time passed i have no idea.
ive been waiting to spawn on a 10 sec link and watched it drop to 5secs then 3secs... ??

Each uplink has a set spawn time.
The spawn time may be reduced by up to 50% if the person who deployed it is an Amarr logi.
When you die if your clone is not terminated the spawn timer starts counting down from its original time until it reaches the minimum of 3 secs. This is so that you are not negatively affected by taking a few seconds to see if a logi is close to you.
The timer stops counting down as soon as your clone is terminated either by you hitting spawn or by an enemy killing your clone. |

ok so heres how it works.
Every uplink has a spawn timer and ever spawnable location (base/CRU) hass a base 10 second spawn)
when you die but arnt cloned that timer stats ticking down immediatly after death down to a minimum of 3 seconds, that 3 seconds starts counting down once you chose your spawn location and start to spawn.
when you die and your clone is terminated that timer does not start ticking down untill you select your spawwn location and begin your spawn.
tested and proven many many times over, this is why if you have the freedom to you always terminate the clones with extreme prejudice.
also note that anything that does overkill damage (sniper headshots, forge guns, railguns, and all explosive weapons) immediatly terminates the clone on death.

thanks for the answer/s guys.
but that sentence is a bit confusing, u mean it starts at 10 and ticks down to 3? do i interupt it and get, lets say 5sec, if i respawn too early?

spawn timer is in 2 sections
seconds 10-3 start counting once you die, canceling spawn does not reset this timer, it continues counting down.
seconds 3-0 start counting once you select your spawn location, canceling spawn resets this timeer.
