    Let me understand this. . . you are concerned that people will leech so it would not be appropriate to make the W1 boss a World Boss such that anybody who chooses to participate would get credit. But making it so everybody gets drawn in and gets credit regardless of participation, in your mind, removes the issue with leeching? But what if I communicate with my insiders and only come in right at the end!? I'd be a LEECH!! You are not a serious person, sir. Lol.

    Well the idea the poster above suggested creates a risk for attempting to do so. If you're not just for sure getting a free boss kill by entering while it's up, then that's fine. Sucking them in forces them to participate or potentially get rekt. So while it's not my *ideal* solution, I like it better than anything anyone else has said.

    You need to stop thinking in black and white. I'm a very serious person (but I can also see the humor in the suggestion I cited.... ) and there was a clear logic to my comments. If you can't see it, I'm sorry.

    Basically, I'd rather it not be (easily) possible at all, but realistically you can't prevent it entirely without the reservation system. So adding an element of risk to trying to game the system is not a bad solution to me. I know that if there's a way, people like you will find a way to avoid doing the work while getting the credit. So if it can't be prevented, we can at least make it harder to get away with.

    No, it doesn't. Get drawn in. Immediately move 10' away out of danger. Leech a win. Far from preventing your main concern, it virtually guarantees it! Having to engage the boss entails just as much, if not more, risk of getting "rekt." You're not thinking this through. You're just muddying up a thread as usual with irrelevant concerns lol. The main point is everybody should be able to engage the W1 boss, which you appear to both agree with and disagree with. That is not logic. That's just being intentionally annoying.
