I completely understand the fears over cheating/botting. But instead of instantly shooting down content because we are afraid of cheaters, why not offer better solutions to nullifying the ability to cheat?

Why not do incredible spawn areas? For instance, lets use fafnir as example. What if it was his time to pop, and you saw him flying overhead, and had to wait until he landed in a completely random area to claim him?

How about pop items to spawn NMs? I'd love to have to go into an area with friends and slaughter level 50-60 monsters and try to get a pop item to get an NM.

Instantly turning down content due to fears of cheating from a prior MMO makes me a little sad. Instead of shooting everything down, why can't alternative methods to open world NM spawn/timing standards be introduced?
