    How to get to Kirin

    Could we please please please change how you get to Kirin? Don't know how many hours are wasted trying to get the last person there.

    That's why you allow an hour to gather for Kirin. There is supposed to be a secret to hitting the teleport, but I never found that it worked. It's all luck really and knowing how to get out of pots room and back again. Maybe you can do without that last person if it's taking too long?

    There is no secret. That's people wishful thinking, and having it work on a 50/50 chance.

    I agree with this change though. This is something that never made a lot of sense and has nothing to do with "skill" in killing the boss. Just a complete and unnecessary time-waster.

    the idea of "Randomly" going to the place you want, or getting thrown in a place forcing you to walk around itself is the problem.

    its a stupid and illogical procedure that wastes unnecessary time. there's no challenge in Dumb-lucking into the Kirin room, it needs to be fixed. Lets not make excuses.

    I know at one point i was trying to get to Kirin, showed up ~30 minutes before gather, Took me 23 Tries to get the Kirin room, took me about 45 minutes of walking back/forth between.

    Its a fail system, knowing your way around is no excuse to keep something like this in place.

    It's a rough life.

    Also, let's not forget the only reason anyone might be doing Kirin is for the Atma, no need to silver platter that too.

    I don't see how a dumb-luck Teleporter, that was a bad idea from minute 1, being removed is "silver plattering" it >___>?

    I don't think getting to the NM is suppose to be a bigger challenge than the NM itself =.=a? I'm sorry this seems like Masochistic logic, I don't think we need to suffer through bad design to fight something.

    Kirin himself is now easier, the idea of a random-spawn adds no challenge to the fight, its just frustrating.

    Only reason? Just about everything he drops is of value still. I've never considered the pole all that great. Whether you agree or not the fact is Osode, Quake, Raise III, Abj's, and shining cloth are all reason enough to kill him with a dama ingot and orich ingot on the side for bonus effect. If nothing else you cannot deny the staying power of movement speed items, and those W legs will forever be all the reason in the world you'll ever need to kill Kirin whether it's for yourself, your group, or to merc.

    Many people do not care about killing kirin or sky in general any longer. However, many people do care about it and will do it as proven by my constant cursed gear sales for sky abj drops. This change is a welcomed change.

    many people do care about it and will do it .
    THIS

    I'm all done in sky atm, but that teleport was annoying as heck. I'm glad it's finally getting fixed, now people will have less annoying stuff to deal with when getting w legs.

    Pretty sure that W legs are still going to be wanted and are still the main reason for doing kirin. They are still the only movement speed items for several jobs. Atma is not the sole reason.

    We're removing the "50/50" chance of making it to Kirin in the next version update. From then on, it'll be 100%. KIRIN FOR EVERYONE!

    (Am I the only one that got Sesame Street vibes from the subject of the thread?)
