New NMs

[Poipori]

If it's killable anyone will be able to kill it which means the gear won't be limited and also there will be no competition.

I don't see how anyone will be able to kill it, if it is really difficult, it could even take hnmls months to kill it.
Also, if there is a reeenter time of 72hr or once a week, the items drop by the boss WILL be rare.

This kind of competition is more revelant, it is the competition of player's skill and gearset trying to defeat a super hard boss.

What kind of competition does camping nm offer? competition of whose internet ping is the best? or who is the luckiest? or who don't need to sleep? it makes no sense.

Difficulty is no factor. If you can kill it you can kill it again. It's not rare no matter what because everyone is killing it. Not 1 kill every 24 hours. 1 kill for every LS every 72 hours is a lot more added up.

So you don't want anything to be hard, you just don't want other people to have the gear you do? Given enough time a vast majority of people will have it anyway, deal with it.

No they won't. KB was out forever. Barely anyone had D rings.

If an LS can kill something once they can kill it again. I'm not saying it should be easy, I'm saying difficulty does not determine rarity. If it's instanced that means it will be less rare. Please read.

What does rarity have to do with this, other than epeen of course, if SE are clever they will keep adding armour to the game at a steady pace, which will make NM's irrelevant within a few months to half a year.

They plan to go up to rank 99 from what I can tell so we aren't going to be stuck fighting the same NM's for years to come.

There are really other ways of making items rare, don't just limit to thinking that camping nm is the sole solution.

Take EQ2 for example, there are special items being awarded to the first kill of an NM in the server, there is only 1 of that item exist in the entire server.

Now that promotes healthy competition, it lets guilds compete with each other to see who has the best skill in game.

This is just one example, there are many other ways of making things rare, really.

Do you really enjoy staring at the screen, waiting for pop that much?

Sad thing is, they really do. Anything that they can keep most people from trying, they enjoy.

Also, your LS is going to be having a hard time enjoying anything with the new 8 person party limit. I have fraps on don't worry!

But back on subject. It's not about being unfair to casual players, it's about being fair to everyone and making a game that will last instead of being nothing but spoon-fed content.

Now that is a little too crazy! JPs would have all of them :P

Lol just imagine the rage that these guys will have if they are.

The game really needs those NMs like Leaping Lizzy and Valkrum Emperor. It seems so empty with out them.

I guess your definition of fair is the game catering to the only 3 people on these forums asking for 24 hr NMs? Wow.

Yeah and you all thought your server had issues...we got an migrant shell full of that. Who knows where they came from. Probably XI. They sound like XI brand.
