Well we all know All Bosses Respawn at the Same Time............Why Not have them spawn at Various Times.......give ppl a chance to actually grab one, and not everyone and thier brother/sister/cousin/daughter/wife/3rd cousin he,he log on at the same time..........Gives some sense of adventure too......Never knowing WHEN the Boss will show up so noone can have Monolopy over one thing and for some ppl that can't get on when the Bosses Pop may actually have a chance to fight a boss...........Just My 2 Cents not like it's worth much Peace

I agree this to a degree. The fact of the matter is tho this will cause a lot more people to become angry when hit and runs are performed. No?

read the update thing jlh poted? bosses now have something where staff sets an amount for the chance the boss has to spawn the next hour. this would result in random boss spawnings and this will be in as soon as the crits are updated (when pacifists come in)

Maybe, its got nothing to do with being killed? Maybe there just fed up of having to buy the item?

didn't we go over this a couple weeks ago? i swear to god you're not trying to fix your own problem randomizing boss spawns. if you want to increase your chances of killing the bosses the best thing to do is find a way to do it on your own terms instead of trying (and failing) to have the game lean in your favor. not being able to kill enough bosses isn't a problem that is going to be solved by re-tooling the game.

Yep, and I'm glad they are. I still think it will improve the game, even if you don't.

Ofcourse this will make the game better, not having 30 crits huddled around a boss before it even spawns is gonna be nice...give the "smaller" people more chances to kill more bosses, and dognapot why are you so against it?...i dont get that

i'm against it because it won't work. i've explained it a gajillion times and at this point in real life i'd just let everyone prove themselves wrong but here in nightmist when unneccessary things are added to the game and fail to do anything usefull they stay there forever. remember the trial pk restrictions? guess what: the expirement failed. it's easier to kill noobs now then it was before. do we fix it? no.
 
now hear me out, if boss spawns are randomized smaller players will still face the same problems when fighting bosses because most valuable bosses are incredibly easy to check on. now if you're a 'smaller' player do you seriously intend on killing a crystal giant in a short enough timespan that bigger players won't come by and demolish you? i don't think that will happen. so in the end you are forced back into the same situation as before but instead of having of the ability to plan and prepare for taking what you want you are now forced to assemble a force on the spur of the moment and defend your parties against 'larger' players. call me crazy but i think that equals a disadvantage for 'smaller' players. more powerfull and well connected players have a greater ability to assemble a larger force on shorter notice that can disperse 'smaller' players attempts to get most boss drops.
 
it's like i'm talking to walls here.

dognapot the poiont is that ppl like me now have a chance too since the bosses don't spawn at 2 am my time. and during ym days there are alot less ppl on that could kill a boss then during my nights so i have alot more chance to killing a boss and with me alot of others. and now there is a lsight chance that you actually kill a boss before a big party arrives. and with the old system it was 100% certain that a big party would show up before you actually got the boss to mod Cheesy

Smaller players wouldn't even consider going for the CG, it would take them hours to kill it. They could quite easily kill other bosses though, like DG, and it would let them get the item which would save them 140k... how is that a bad thing? The only reason you think its bad is because it will stop you and your clan getting a monopoly on the bosses. Simple.

obviously you have no idea how many times the 'bigger' clans adventure into the barracks in a day.....
 
[Clan] RandomClannie: hey guys dgs there
djdjdjf logged on.
fdfgjdjf logged on.
fiofkixf logged on.
ckidkdjdjf logged on.
[Clan] RandomClannie : okay lets kill these noobies killing it.
 
Noobie1 was resurrected here, after being killed by RandomClannie.
 
Noobie2 was resurrected here, after being killed by RandomClannie.
 
Noobie1: gosh darnit! i thought random respawn would make it easier for me to kill the general!
 
Noobie2:  Cry
 
that's the point dognapot's trying to make.. no matter what time bosses spawn, it's not going to change the fact that people are -still- going to get the boss. oi and believe me, he's not stating it for any personal benefit what so ever, i don't think he cares about a silly halberd, or a pair of sgs. he rarely logs on now a days as it is  Embarassed

And what you seem to ignore is the fact that TR aren't always on, and they won't be checking it every minute, so there's still a much bigger chance of them getting the kill.

dude, what are you talking about, do you think tr is the only big clan in game?  
 
and whether you want to believe it or not there is usually someone ALWAYS on.
 
i think you've got a lot of issues with a specific clan and therefore you are making it harder on other clans to progress as well. i suggest you chill out and enjoy the game.
