Bosses

Author Content Date
This has already been brought up before and we established random boss spawns with additional mobs aswell as world/map shout plus the bosses having more hp. these would all be nice changes. Boss fights are awesome.. no 1 guild controls the boss spawns...At Shironim there's about 20 people that show all from different guilds, the tension at that boss makes this game fun.

"HURRICANE"Also giving the boss more hp will not solve the problem. They will still pk. I just find it wrong that 1 guild have control over all the bosses ingame


So why don't more people attend the boss to try and help with the pking? There's no reason why you shouldn't be able to hold your ground.

Things like world shout announcements for bosses like Pamoth, Shironim would be cool but lets be honest here most people are moaning about the pking that happens there which in my opinion is perfectly fine because that's part of what comes with rivalries. It seems some only ally up when it suits them.

Just my 0.02.

Sylver,

The last couple of weeks the bosses have been even and competitive.

It's been good and fun. Lots of your guild mates have turned up as well.

This method works well in pretty much every other MMORPG.

It just allows for more variation.

Sometimes these bosses can get locked in a rut of 2am spawns and don't lend well to casual gamers.

At least random spawns would mean less clock watching.

There was a shiro a few weeks ago, when PK was turned off 20 people turned up an hour early and locked everyone else out.

Bosses now people are setting their clocks by them.

Random would be more fun.

I don't think anyone would try and solo a boss either.

Think if enough ppl wanted random I'd suggest a small random hour with set day with announcement of when it spawns, still in need of more hp

Eg spawns every 3 days between hours of 12-20 and sends out announcement

Would mean no one is sat waiting for it and every one has chance of it, tho would still get pking going off

Think full random would just mean ppl without trace would never find

The pking and finding of bosses are two seperate issues and people see to be mixing them together. Claiming pking is fine, doesnt mean the problem of finding / respawn times of these bosses dont exist. Yes pking goes on, always has always will, all depends on whos there and how many people and yes that is fine.

The real issue is people just dont find these bosses, and once they do spawn (After a reboot) They are very quick to be killed. Garp found and killed the last pamoth by himself within 5 minutes (There are numerous people probably tracing bosses at a very regularly interval after a reboot) and now it wont spawn for over three days.

And once they have been killed the spawn timer is fixed, so everyone knows when it will spawn, as as Tolic said, I've been to Pamoths at 3 am with like 20+ people, and thats pretty ridiculous.

I like the idea of a variable re spawn timer, lets say EDW has a 40 hour respawn timer, If it were possible to make it a random interval re spawn say between 30-50 hours during which at any point it could respawn. The number of bosses spawning should stay the same, but means there is more luck involved in finding it.

And there shout be a global announcement:

I see the point you're trying to make but I do think they're somewhat linked in a way because the pking is what most are moaning about.

If bosses were full on carebear with pk mode disabled etc I bet people would moan less. A fair few seem to want peace but only when it suits them.
