Any new HNM coming?

[Sasukeuchiha]

No they did not do that. What they did was make the mob unclaimable for 0.5-3 seconds after it spawns and if you try to claim it during this "unclaimable" window your abilities are stunned for a few seconds.

If you did the reverse of that i.e. make the mob able to be attacked by anyone for a few seconds window after it pops and then pass claim randomly to someone who attacked it then it would make bots completely useless. It wouldn't matter if they botted or not because it wouldn't increase their chance of getting claim.

Well that would work but without a dout someone with time will find a way to manipulate the system just to make sure they get the nm anyway. They need a way better way to camp and claim a nm then a 21 to 24+ hour spawn nm.

the real life card? well played sir, well played.


Edit: i would be happy, why add the best gear to stuff that can be spammed? at least with HNM you see who really put the time/work in to earn it.

Because sitting around for up to 3hrs at a time is your definition of work?

A NM doesn't have to be a 21-24 hour spawn to be difficult, lol.

"Oh hey, I put in so much work. I sat there for 3 hours, actually tried to claim it for 2 minutes, and fought it for 20 minutes!"

Greetings fellow adventurers!

Seems like many of you are looking for a new challenge in Vana'diel.
It's great to know that spirits for a challenge is burning in your heart.

Well guess what? Dev. team is working on to implement new HNM in the next major version update!

More details will become avaialble soon so stay tuned!

Hooray. New army of botfests.

Respectfully, I welcome the challenge of some HNMs that are tougher than what is out now. Force spawn is cool, but having a little old school time popping isn't bad neither. I agree with everyone about the bots. People who use them, clearly are more than just cheaters, they are poor sports. I mean, why else would you want to use a tool to claim a monster from everyone else ALL THE TIME? lol.

So you can sell ridills to noobs for 20 mil each.

And how exactly are they going to do that? You need to come up with something better than "they'll use their magic powers to find a way around it... somehow"

I think the real problem here is that you just don't like competition.

However some people do and they deserve to enjoy the game as much as people who don't like to compete.

So only you people who like competition deserve the gear that would come from these HNMs.

The isue is a 21 to 24+ time spawn nm is going to promot cheating. Unless it has a extreaming high drop rate to get the botting people away from it soon to let the people who want to play fair have a chance the hole system is flawed. They need to impliment a system that does not promote cheating. There nothing rong with compition is the fact people wont have there fair chance at the nm.

Timed world pops were the best. That new abyssea crap is mehhh... sure it's fun for all but FF in it's roots has been more about the stature. Spamming abyssea nm's and e'one in the same gear is ftl. World spawn HNM's would be ftw and might bring players back. AFk'n @ joachim with what you whiners will never equip so you can see it on your way to get what e'one else has. And fyi I did quit; after 8 years it was time to go. Might come back for some old skool DA action!
