Can Ovni please give a buff to all around him once he dies which is needed for BA?

I keep thinking this "those outside have to work for those inside to get the rewards" thing is a bad move from SE.

People outside get rewards as well. It's a level 60 NM so it gives good EXP and Crystals. And with the horrible rate of NMs in Hydatos, having these extra from Support NM helps like crazy.

But honestly, everyone who qualifies for BA and manages to get gold on the support NM should get at least 1 Eureka Fragment.

@OP: Sounds like you want Onvi to function the same way as bunnies where there is a hard-cap on player limit.

When did I say that? I don't see how I can make it more clearer. My suggestion is when Onvi / Support NM dies, he does an AOE around himself. If you get hit by this AOE, you get a new buff. The current buff where if you accept going into BA and get gold from the NM still remains. But now if you want to enter a red portal or blue portal, you need both the buff you normally get + the new one Onvi / Support NM gives you himself.

This way, people who run away from the NM, just so they can "secure" a portal quickly get punished by not being allowed in.

Honestly BA sounds like a headache to co-ordinate with and literally one party/person can end a fight for everyone just because they sniped a node and went in unprepared. I was just in an instance where ppl were debating if node sniping the support was an offense. I would like to try it but I'll wait till things get more organized. I'm also in no rush for a mount that has the generic mount music. Such a waste they could have easily put the FF9 battle 2 theme.

If you want to go as an organised group, there's an item you can use to enter Blue Portals. It's why it exists in the first place. It's not that hard to get one but hard enough that not everyone is going to be spamming them. So if you really want to co-ordinate a good run, just farm the item.
