Uh, how am I supposed to kill 8 bile spewers if they don't spawn? (lemm.ee)

I honestly don't know how I was supposed to get yesterday's personal order. I did 3 different bug missions, 7, 4, and 4. None spawned. I don't mind a test of skill, making sure I'm on the right level or that we spawn enough bugs to cause some spewers into the mix or that I prioritize them. All fine and good.

How am I supposed to achieve if I'm not even allowed the chance?

Spawns are table based and random between missions. Means that each mission has a set table of spawn types. For example, two of the most recognized tables for bugs are "this mission has tons of bile spewers" and "this mission has chargers and bile titans"
You are gonna get a higher chance of more elites spawning at higher difficulties. So 6 and up.
If all you are interested in doing is farming the kills, then find a mission where bile titans spawn, then carelessly aggro all patrols and allow as many bug breaches to spawn as possible in order to allow more opportunities for elites to spawn, then get your kills and leave mission, since you don't have to even complete the mission to get credit for the personal order
