    Okay, I hate to beat a dead horse as well, but I want to join in on this complaint:

    I'm trying to get my friends and myself through this part of the first stage and finding these guys is proving difficult. Nothing else in this whole quest line is so ridiculously luck-based. So fine, I say either just have them pop every two hours when Besieged gets over Level 5, or make it a pop one can get from a BC drop. Make it something that drops from ISNM on occasion (and I mean reasonably often), something we can bazaar, and it'll make people more likely to spend time in the Aht Urhgan areas and give those of us that need it a shot at these monsters.

    This is definitely going to be a problem when the new Salvage areas come out. The surplus of Alexandrite is going to have a lot of people wanting Mythic weapons and that's going to mean hard times for everyone.

    Bonus idea: If the Beastmen Leaders are defeated in Besieged, have them show up back in their lairs shortly thereafter, but have them in a slightly weakened state, like 75% life, or with fewer helpers or something. That would likewise encourage and reward players for defending Al Zahbi.

    Award a temporary key item if you are on the relevant part of the mythic quest and participate in a besieged where said NM is present and defeated. That key item can then be used to spawn the boss without loot, while still awarding the title on defeat.

    You can wide scan medusa at ilrusi stag point and gurfurlur on the first map (where mob con EP) of halvung (at a drop from the true sight zone to the normal zone). Also in mamook it's not hard to check it either.
