The spawns need to be severely scaled for earlier tier mobs.

Most zombies and skellys spawns are 4 at a time. Even if they scale to 5-6 that's still SO low and there's so much sitting around. This is fine for middle of the map but lawless continents should absolutely scale much harder to reward players that can kill more than 3 zombies at once.

This is what farming lower tier mobs COULD look like instead of sitting around a noob spawn:
