    Might want to talk for yourself. For me the adrenaline is the same. The unique mob is still there, if it's camped there's still the moment of claim. The only difference is that the adrenaline is not preceeded by the utter mindnumbing boredom of waiting, and followed by the frustration of waiting again.

    This not to mention the fact that the current system pairs the (still existing) adrenaline with the pleasure of teaming up with others (instead of seeing them all as enemy) and making new friends, that results in a better community.

    Which is all gain.

    Then,as I said, you may want to speak for yourself and not for everyone

    You know the rush you get when you see a unique monster? There's none of this with the current system.
    Stating that there's no adrenaline with the current system means that there's none for everyone. This is obviously not true.

    I can only offer my observations on what makes for addictive gameplay for me.

    I stated this before, and now I'm stating it again, since you seem to have missed it.

    So waiting in line at a supermarket is addictive for you?

    The mechanics aren't that different, besides the fact that this is a supermarket in which you're allowed to be rude to other customers by jumping ahead of them.

    Why do you insist on always using extreme examples in all of your arguments against what you want? Lottery spawns aren't just "waiting". They aren't "boring and less active". You're killing the NM's "followers" while trying to provoke him to get angry and come out.

    And no one is saying they need to be overly long spawn windows either. Every time someone makes a suggestion you don't like, you use the absolute worst-case scenario from FFXI you can find, and don't even consider that there's less extreme and more middle ground options.
