Here you go, for your knowledge.

32 minutes. I skipped only 2 chests and picked up 3 accursed hoard.

the comparison i made isn't trying to say "this content is literally as hard as a12s", i was comparing the attitudes towards the mount. OP is asking for it to be made easier to get this mount, which i compared against asking for the a12s mount to be made easier to get, nothing more

The kind of players that are running Savage could destroy those almost instantly, and then be right back in Savage. Amusingly enough, the kind of players that are good enough to run 101-200 do EXACTLY THE SAME THING.

He also have never played FFXI because that is how it worked..

You will spend 4-5 hours, or a week farming pop items, to pop certain special bosses, to get pop items from them, to then pop a big boss. and if you wiped? welp, you now have to start all over. which, in fact took far longer then redoing all of alex normal to get back into savage..

There was one event in that game, einherjar, that took 2 weeks to get items needed for Odin, you wiped to him???? To bad, got to start allllll over. see you in 2 weeks.

I loved the games where your group would take all the effort to spawn a world boss, only for an opposing guild to come PK you all, and steal your boss.

I would be all for this idea as long as the mount is not a possible reward. While it is complete RNG, the mount is there to motivate people to accept the challenge as it is. Giving that as a potential reward for easier floors defeats the purpose of having the challenge there at all.

That could easily be reported tho. Altho the mess Nidhogg created with his spike flails.. and then watching Linkshells fight over his claim, well those were just fun to watch, in a i can't keep my eyes off this horrible crash way.

Never got the point of reporting though. If you couldn't keep the boss, you didn't deserve the boss. It was very much a part of the game, even if it did suck for the losing side.
