Random NM Trophies

[ThePatriarch]

So lets make HNM's, and open world NM's.

and make their drops nothing more than vanity items?

This is definitely a Sephrick thread

1. Please bring back similar FFXI-style NM with various pop conditions
2. Please have the rewards be based around trophy items for display (maybe Jaggedy-eared Jack's head as a hat)
3. Please do not put stats on these items, therefore making camping ENTIRELY OPTIONAL AND NOT CENTRAL TO GAMEPLAY MECHANICS
4. Possibly incorporate crating into the concept by turning said drops into trophy item/gear

This would be cool... my only real "problem" is that your in game name is Dookie Poo...
What the hell? On second thought... that IS hilarious

@ Orophin. Did you read all of the OP? That kind of drop leads to all the crap that was wrong with XI. "botting, hacking, and poor general treatment of others" and having only trophy drops keeps them ENTIRELY OPTIONAL AND NOT CENTRAL TO GAMEPLAY MECHANICS.

This isn't those other threads you read, this is a different one! If hardcores only chase "elite items" that make them one step closer to god mod, i'd be happy if they're not there. I'd be way happy to see the LS's that show off this gear to be runnin around town in bunny hats as trophies instead of carrying weapons or armors that break the balance.

My point being, why can't the NM remain on the current respawn timer of the lesser NMs or ones such as Dodore that require a specific weather active?

This is someone asking for the long timers and camping to make a grand return, but in a way that doesn't foster ill will between players. If you don't need a no-stat-rabbit-hat and it serves no purpose aside from having it, does it matter what the conditions are? If you've no intent to participate in these NMs then why the concern? That is the point of them having trophy only items. You don't need to feel slighted if you cannot obtain one. It will let people who love to camp camp again and for those who can't they won't miss some mega-uber item.
