    It's no problem honestly, you get the key items, turn them into the charm or whatever, and fight the King all in the same area. It's extremely local. 15mins till you can re-enter after you win. So in that time you turn in the completed quest, pick up a new one, kill the 5 NM's and then get to the Atheryte. Beats waiting around.

    Also, right now everyone is pretty much doing it the "wrong way". I know my group would sure take far less time if we knew what we were doing. Heck, we only discovered we had to walk by accident, then as we moved on we kept learning new "tricks", from avoiding the links to where to tank stuff.

    I bet that in two or three days there will be already guides showing how to kill everything in 15min.

    That obviously takes into account the 10 other LS's out there trying to do the exact same thing.

    Would be a problem if the spawn rates weren't incredibly fast. But they are.

    The NM's do spawn fast, but that's not the time sink part. They are very easy to kill... its the whole walking everywhere, while avoiding getting aggro and linking tree's that is lame.

    We could really use that update to the link system where mobs only call the same type.

    Yes, a beastman calling a squirrel to fight with him is absurd.

    There are actually several NM's of each type of. Atleast i know of 2 hog's and 2 monkeys. And they respawn super super fast.
