Simple solution for the 3rd quest Bombs - make it a LEVE quest

Leve:

1. Being a Leve no one else can attack them
2. You'll level sync to do it
3. Make it so the Bombs can only go down to 1 hp
4. Give the Leve a wide area of activation to avoid players standing all over each other.
5. No cross-over effects as standard mobs aren't changed.

Or make it leve like

the last two activities are cool, why does it have to differ? leve/destination in my book i agree with op

Yep, an actual Levequest or run along the same lines is good.

Or, or, hear me out, they don't make only one person able to pacify the bombs in a popular event?!

Better yet, just rotate some GMs during the duration of the event, so they ban trolls right in the spot, that would be amazing and satisfactory.

I did this quest last night on Diabolos. People must be really nice on my server. You only had to mention it once to people that were one shotting that they are doing it wrong and guess what? They listened, they changed their plan of attack, and they got it done. Ran to go do it on my alt this morning. People casually taking turns doing it. They really do need a GM just jailing trolls on those servers that have totally a-holes on them.

So why should GMs should be shuffled into the event just for trolls there, but not at all times elsewhere?

Honestly? This may be good in the short term but in a few days...the whole thing is going to be dead so all the extra work on coding would go to waste.

I did this last night on Behemoth - not a quiet server by any means - and there wss no problem, no one one shotting anything. Just equip a swimsuit and little else with a low level weapon and have at it.

The initial rush will be over within 48 hours and all will be fine after that.

No... not a levelquest. What happen if you dont have remaining allowances?

Because it would be much funnier. I would even use some kind of world-shout command to call by nickname and declare sentence to the temporarily banned players.

Ahhh, good old ragnarok online GM-Style.

I hope you can convince square to give the GMs a boost in pay for this funny idea then. Or just a pay raise in general for the things they gotta deal with.

Not needed, they are paid for their work time, not how or in what they work.

Extra pay for doing something that is already part of their job?

while its a noble idea to try & "fix" a trolling player... it never ends well, that said they really should have forseen this potental problem from the start (that said I got it done Day-1 5hrs in, just unequiped my left side, head hands & belt & auto'd 3 stray bombs dead while the random 1 "Troll" wasn't looking... only odd part was the Troll wasn't a Lala, as the MSQ seams to always make the "bad guy" one)

People COULD form lines like we did back in beta/early access for that one MSQ. But I think the player base is too savage now for that type of behavior.

That's easy to get round, just make it an Event Leve which ignores the allowance.

By the time they implement a solution to the problem (a problem that shouldn't have existed in the first place as this isn't their first rodeo), the problem will probably have sorted itself out.
