    Bring back world spawn bosses

    FFXI had a lot of world spawn NMs like Fafnir, King Behemoth, Adamantoise, Tiamat, Dark Ixion, Sandworm and many more. What is missing from MMORPGs these days is that there is no thrill of claiming over your rivals anymore getting that extremely rare gear off that 3-7 day spawn.

    Everything doesn't have to be in an instance. We can have more then 1 way to get gear!!!!!!!!!!!

    I bought World of Warcraft Mists of Pandaria since FFXIV severs went down and have seen Blizzard has brought the world spawn boss back in a big way its a nice addition to their normal raid instances. Sha of Anger a 20-30 min spawn easy to claim still takes 40 people to kill and Galleon a 3-7 day spawn crazy hard to get claim but drops some of the best gear.

    Check out this picture tons of players at a day 3 Galleon camp

    It be crazy fun to talk trash with rival guilds at the camp and sit there doing still while you try to get the claim. You got to know people on your server do dumb stuff at camps. These guys even did some fun stuff like most everyone got on their Firehawk mount and made a circle http://i.imgur.com/wTfSO.jpg Tons of crazyness to pass the time.

    Yoshi-P told the dev team to play WoW and this is one thing they should take from that game is world spawns. Blizzard said they wanted to add more world bosses in future patches since these ones went so well. If Blizzard can revive the World Boss in MMOs then SE can too. They already proven they work well in WoW:MoP

    I would like something like this, but I don't want to be waiting 6 hours to days for a spawn. I could care less how long it takes to kill something, but I don't think I should be waiting forever for it. 1-3 hour spawns are fine, but they went overkill in XI with them.

    Ironic the ones against this in general forgot one of the first XIV updates introduced world spawns..lol. They should continue doing it and I'm pretty sure they already have a plan to because Yoshida feels an "NM" should be something more than what they did with the current NMs, something akin to XI that separated real NMs from just regular mobs with better loot, i.e the Wyrms, Sandworm, Ixion etc were what you could consider NMs compared to Leaping Lizzy which was just a regular lizard with amazing boots for the time.

    We already seen what they can do with the world spawns they added to XIV. The only issue would be Dodore since it was weather triggered but due to the fact it's such old content it wasn't really that big of an issue in the long run, since ARR wouldn't have old content in the same regard for years.

    So long as it isn't something like waiting 3 days for a 50% chance at a pop, I'd like to see more NMs in the world. Which I'm sure Yoshida is planning on doing.
