No one kills the WNMs now (save for dodore cuz of his "OP" drop), yes people still kill them rarely... if you're gonna nitpick on stuff like this it makes it look like you have no info that's true so you're doing stuff like that instead. Vrtra dropped cashmere... just like an instanced fight so people had a choice. Cashemere selling for millions in FFXI is pretty good motivation no? they didn't kill Vrtra just to kill it. And Vrtra still sat up most of the time due to the BC fight being easier. Zerg somethin to death rq? np! If you were satisfied with these types of -kill something just to kill it- fights you'd be happy with the way WNMs work now, which obviously, you are not.
