Highly Notorious Monsters

[Sakasa]

Well you know there is the bounty system in place with in leves where a special monster appears that is actually only in the leve and not any where else. Like the snow leopard coeurl (I forget its real name) that spawn in leves infront of Stone vigil. I know alot of players haven't done enough leves to even see one yet but it gives a specific bonus in gil and their spawn is random as it decided when the leve is activated. In a way it is very similar to Monster Hunter were to get some of the monsters you have to do something else and have the rng spawn it.

Now what people tend to forget is the need for faux rarity. People like to collect stuff true, but people also want to feel special. Whcih is why long timers give that randomness and excitement that people love until it becomes old hat. Achievements though are hit are miss they have to be fun and doable. For instance coil is not doable yes people have made it and eventually the average player will make it there but its not a something like a HNM or a NM hunt were its random and accessible in a moments notice.

Now in 1.0 yes they were there and atm need to make the strongest weapons in the game but that too became old hat. To truely make interesting NM they would have to limit accessibilty to all to do this easiest way would be hunting seasons divide by month. So people can literally miss them and have to wait a long time because they just no longer exist in the game similar to holiday events. So pair that with leve bounty system and some achievements and some special vanity crafted gear or vanity dropped gear and you will have people out in thw wilds doing leves they never even knew existed.
