Will there be camps in the new expansion?

[Takutu]

Will there will camps similar to pre-Abyssea camps, such as Kings, CoP Wyrms, etc?

[Tile]

you want them to add a HNM that drops 1 item that everyone wants 10% of the time and is a 72 hour repop?

[Takutu]

10% is a bit high, don't you think? But otherwise, yes.

[Trisscar]

No thanks, how about we have actually engaging endgame events instead?

They should put these in on one condition. They have no drops. 0 zilch. Absolutely nothing gear or performance related.

Perhaps defeating them gives your character some shiny glow effect, or free warps to different outposts depending which ones that you have killed. Maybe a bunch of cool looking stuff to put on your farm.

No drops though. Absolutely nothing.

If my subscription fees are going to go towards something that most people will never get to experience, then it should be something that most people will not miss.

[Takutu]

Saying that everyone can't experience this is complete nonsense. Everyone has the opportunity to go to the camps, and compete. The game needs a sense of competition, and these events were one of the biggest competition driven events that also had the opportunity to yield some of the games best gear. I'm not saying all the best gear came or should come from camps, but quite a bit of it did, and should.

Oh look it's this thread again.

If you want HNM's then just unplug your keyboard infront of a ??? for 72 hours and watch it - then after 72 hours plug it back in and pop the NM. BAM HNM EXPERIENCE.

Why do people want to play a game to sit there doing nothing? Morons.

This game doesn't need competition, if you want competition go play any PvP enabled MMO or FPS or even Ballista here.

Sorry Tukutu, you've entered the realm of "If it existed before 2010, you can forget about it, because nobody wants it!"

I beg to differ here: Oh boy check out the 200+ Likes!

Anyhow, I agree with your suggestion.

[Takutu]

There is a very big difference between 21-24 hour HNMs, 48-72 hour HNMs, and 3-5 Day HNMs.

The 21-24 hour HNMs, a 10 minute (if it pops first window), to a 3 hour (if it pops final window) event. Guess what else was a 10min-3hour event? Every other event in the game. Between windows you can do other stuff. You don't actually have to sit at your screen staring at it.

The longer camps, were mostly camped by mules until the final window. Sure, there was people camping it themselves if they wanted a piece of gear from it, such as Gaiters. Sorry you actually had to spend time to get good pieces of gear.

I'm not saying every event should be Kings, but they were a really fun part of the game that added a lot.
