    Why Do I Have To Compete With Other Players For Notorious Monsters?

    It is getting tiring trying to out pull other players for over camped Notorious Monsters or having to wait until they finish all their pops. Can we please have our own spawns.

    Enforced cooperation where there is no desire to cooperate.

    The fact is, this is one of the great enjoyments many players get.

    It's called "***".

    They not only get enjoyment by doing the content, but they get more by preventing you from doing the content.

    This isn't going to change, sadly.

    I personally enjoy this aspect of random spawn mobs, but only when you don't have to compete against 50 botters.

    No, I'm sorry. Botting was only ever big in kings and other hnms (Arthro for example). Next to no one actively camps kings anymore, Anyone who does is a small group. It's certainly no longer a case of 50 botters, as I quoted in the last post.
    The fact you think there's still thousands of botters camping kings and stealing your NMs shows just how ignorant you are about the whole situation and how basically all your anti-botting comments are based purely on old and irrelevant stories.
    Don't try and pretend botting is remotely important anymore. The only things that were ever botted were Behe/Faf/Ada NQ/HQs and King Arthro. If it was Kimaira/Cerberus/Tiamat's last 1-3 windows and they hadn't popped, maybe there too. Ground Kings are getting changed to force pop. Khim and Cerb don't drop anything worth botting, and Timmy has such a large pop area that it was always more luck whether he popped in casting range or not anyway. King Arthro is the only one left but concidering every job except Rdm, Pld and Drk can equip Bullwhip or Twilight Belts, which are both very easy to get, and concidering that AV is easy to kill now and most "botting shells" will kill him to sell drops, that one isn't very important either.

    Speed and Pos hacking, fishing, synth, skillup, and widescan type programs are still around, and are still troublesome. But Botting Kings and such anymore is pretty irrelevant.

    @ person who said this is no longer relevant... try getting a Sobek pop @ night time in the US, you'll see it's entirely relevant still.

    I hate competing during JP prime time, since it's when I'm up, and I have to compete / share with people I have little to no way of communicating with in an efficient matter. I want a fix too.

    Everything in the game is designed to make it take as long as possible. If we got everything we wanted right away no one would keep playing.

    10 years ago Squaresoft was great. 10 years ago Hironobu Sakaguchi left Squaresoft. 10 years ago Square's profits were at an all time high. In the last 10 years their profits have done nothing but decline. Coincidence, I think not. Do yourself and the fans a favor SE, bring back Sakaguchi. Bring back the awesome you once had.
