Nidhogg!?

People should have to earn the right to fight HNMs. One way is by completing instance raids, killing bosses, and lesser NMs to get trigger items. Its like fighting off the big bosses henchmen before finally getting to face him. Those items will disappear after using them so the group or LS will have to farm them again.

I think this way promotes group effort, and co-operation that spans for a long time. It is way better than the lazy wait for it to pop so i can bot claim way etc.

i am for a tiered pop system as well, lets you work for your progress and you wont be affected by stupid botters at all

[Amage]

No, no, no no no NO!

Camping for hours on end and bots make this idea an instant fail!

Make the spawn conditions either from a series of REPEATABLE CHALLENGING quests where an item is gained to summon spawn the HNM to battle in the open field. Or make it an instanced area where once successful there is a long lock out of 2-3 days

In Ver 2.0 they already have plans for zones to be controlled by free companies through the management of resources and PvP. That will created enough competition between LS/Free Companies.

this isnt a timer idea so stfu and also if they did add it campin mobss you dont have to do it

We should just stop making content altogether with that mentality.

How so ?

You can still make pop style triggers and instance style content.

Do you mean it has to be your way or no way ?

[Amage]

unfortunately thats not how the higher NMs work

For instance....

Buffalo spawns during the day only(so its up half the time) and it has a few minute respawn
The goblin is same way
The peiste is up during the night

Dodore is the exception to all this, he spawns during foggy weather, weather changes every 8 IN GAME hours. so its a random chance for it coming up
but while its that weather he has a quick respawn still

yeah and who still does any of those

[Jinko]

I think if they dropped decent gear, people would still do them, crafting materials was a great idea but it exhausted pretty fast which I guess is your point.

I would quite like to see these NM's always up but you can only claim them once a week or something, I'm sure people would complain about this though and compare it to nothing more than instanced content in the real world.

Can't please everybody .. or is it anybody ?

look at all content now everyone knows how to beat AV / ifrit / moogle / CC . this content was good for about a month even tho feels like 2 weeks . everyone can do it and win unless you slow

the question is there any content now that only few high skilled players can do or figure out? no

Is the game still too new to get these in?no

And to go back to 11 but at 1st cap 50 they had : simurph bune roc serket and they were still camped and killed long after their fixes.

Can SE produce a anti bot process reader? yes

Well those who want harder content stay when another mmo that comes around that offers such "hardcore" content ? yes if the game is good

Tthis the things that kill me people say i dont wanna camp all day wat 3kings in 11 = 9hrs of camp if wer killed 3hrs of each other and went last window, most of the time they were killed 1-2 hrs apart or killed min apart so hole even can last 9hrs or 30min just saying

these nms 5min span to get everything from them spend 4-8hrs on 1 nm really

i'm sure Nidhogg would be the dragoon story quest end boss or the Ishgard story quest end boss. Because in FF XIV he is the archenemy of Ishgard
