Great drops to match instanced I think everyone is okay with, great drops that exceed instanced might be too far. Nothing compared to the Ebody/Abody/ for a long time, and even more persistent was the power of ridill or black belt.

Rewarding your own members based on participation is well and good, a great way to do things. The other shells make the effort, too. I don't see HNM shells passing claim to each other like "nah we got the last couple, you go ahead" lol. If mobs popped 4 or 5 times a day with higher than 1% drop rates I could totally get behind HNMs. If they're implemented in any way that allows for monopolization (of drops) and polarization (of players) I could in no way get behind it.

Yes, FFXIV has elitist jerks, but what are they elite about? There isn't hard content yet. ^^

Enhancing the spawn zone is good, but they gotta find a way to stop MPK if it spawns somewhere with upper level mobs. I'm totally open to any ideas folks have on this topic.

People who want useful items from HNM is one thing, I can appreciate that. HNM having end-all power items is likely a very bad idea.

Let's make HNM spawn like the updated despot from normal mobs!!! (this is the jokes) The HNMs will pop from star marmots just outside of town, but will pop claimed to whoever killed the marmot that he popped from!
