I'll tone down their max health a bit.  75% sound good?

I'd also like to see outdoor spawners permanently gone if the player decides to destroy them. To that end, their current large max health is a good thing because they shouldn't be trivial to destroy permanently. But allowing them to be permanently destroyed allows me to create "safe" regions if I choose that can act as sort of homes away from home.

That's already been there since yesterday! ;)

Oh sorry, I didn't have a chance to play last night. Can't wait to get home and try it out!

I was going to say 50%.

(Make it 68% and you've got yourself a deal.  ;))

Actually, what about normal rooms not having spawners, instead spawning monsters (away from where you entered) whenever you enter a chunk that you haven't visited in a while, but they don't keep respawning right into your face.

Whereas bossrooms do have spawners, which get destroyed when the boss dies?

That'd be the more diablo-ey approach I've sene mentioned elsewhere on the forums.

And that'd give killing the normal mobs -some- point as well, as they'd at least leave you alone for a while.

Not sure if that might make things too easy, though. Hmm.

Hahaha, I was wondering where the 68% came from in the release notes, it seemed like such an arbitrary number.

EDIT: Why do I keep leaving off suffixes?
