Thread: 1.23 Imperial Event

I've been checking at Crimson and no pop between 9pm-midnight JST (now 12:30am).

did this last night 5 drops but the claiming on it is terrible and a few people around that just leech the final killing blow rest of time they just stand there. The lag is stupid and would be better if each party can claim one mob instead of them all

Agreed. Since it's pretty difficult to fight the entire group with just 8, it would be much better for these elites to spawn separately around the area and on a 2 min respawn where people can coordinate who gets which pop next.

Actually, it would be nice for this to be in an instance a la Skirmish. It would lose the whole "community" thing to it, but I don't think anyone would care.

did you have claim?

Was such a fun and challenging MMO experience last night when 6-10 WHMS from other shells would watch a LS fight down a Magitek/elite just so that they could all go over and try and holy for the last hit and "steal" the drop.


A real test of skill!

And people clamor for world HNM's.

This is indicative of the mindset of the FF mmo community. If HNM's were around it would get this nasty and worse. People in any MMO but particularly Final Fantasy do not want to cooperate if there is anything loot related involved. If there is loot involved they will resort to MPK, leashing, botting or just overall dickery for a shot at the loot.

Also lol at the people defending this event.

It would be divine justice if SE released this event as a test on the community to see how people deal with large-scale HNM events in preperation for 2.0. If they did we are failing....horribly.

Honestly I wouldn't doubt that at all, they have done seasonal events before as testing for future content (last summers bomb escort was a test for caravan etc)

U don't have to leash the mobs if you straight tank the vanguard, sleep the elites and pick them off one by one guys. Our ls did this last night for a couple hours, tho we did overlook it at the beginning. Also, the reason you guys might be confusing the killshot for who has claim is because when you leash the mobs they could be deaggroin right before a kill and your killshot could be for claim because i noticed it happening last night before we were straight tanking.

They have become highly resistant to sleep the more you cast it

Yes but with 8 ppl we were able to kill most before they woke up and the tank got hate on the others and held them.
