    You cant want the best gear in the game and be against camping and for long respawns, atleast if getting the best gear in the game involves NM's. If your solution is the random spawning of mobs anywhere in the game with no pattern of any kind, you sir, will never see the gear i promise you.

    If the mob is hard enough to be super difficult with a party of 8 , it is possible.Like i said, please notice the direction the game is taking.

    You think that camping NMs is what needs to be awarded most, with best gear?
    The solution with the random spawning of mobs anywhere in the game with no pattern of any kind would add rare items. Very rare items.

    I never said that this should be the only sort of NM, there are various options to add instanced NM, faction leve NM, BCNM, the current open world NM.
    There could be tournaments with rewards (instanced PVP) and lots of other new game modes.
    Please note, I am not 100% against camping, we talk about 24h pops here!
    Being restricted to a single window every day is simply unfair given all the different time zones.
    Some people are limited to certain times and i want to play the game when i am free and not at night or when i am supposed to work. Why is that so hard to understand?
    Make it pop often, lower the drop rate.
    Also IMO the super rare gear should be untradeable and people should be able to hold only one.

    You shouldn't have to camp the hardest monsters in the game to get the rarest, bestest, coolest gear. NM should camp you!

    Your party of 4 is wandering down a road and freaking giant dragon lands on your buddy. Survive, get rewarded. That's a challenge.

    Monsters that are only out at night and roaming wide, or in certain weather are cool. Monsters that only are in deep caves or dungeons that you have to fight to get to are cool. Monsters that attack you at random while on a ship are cool. Monsters that are actively assaulting you out of the sky, or stampeding towards the hamlet you are in are cool.

    Monsters that pop on a clock are boring...

    This game needs to more challenging and more dangerous and more alive, monsters that pop on a clock just seem like....blah....

    I wouldnt be opposed to that. Would add a kinda Monster Hunter/ Demon Souls, or even old school FF random battle element to things. In moderation of course, since I dont want to be eviscerated by a Royal Antlion anytime I wander around Ul'dah.

    i do, it would be funny as hell if an NM had the random chance to spawn in a city and go on a rampage

    *thinks back to Ragnarok Online*

    ah the memories of seeing all the merchants in Prontera being slaughtered by Drake's army ^^
    that was the best episode imo.
