OMG at update details..

I'd assume the threshold would be about 1 hour for kings and 30 mins for nqs (maybe 45 mins for faf to be fair). Anybody who takes longer to kill, needs to get more people to show up, or stop being weak noobs. It will be interesting to see just how strong the monsters get after the breaking point, and if their strength keeps increasing non-stop with time. I can see the entertainment value in watching Nidhogg one-shot everybody for 1500 dmg non-critical hit.

I forgot the name of the topic, therfore I cant search for it, but anyone else remember the post someone made, telling everyone to complain to the comments and suggestions panel about end game if it's really such a problem? And I remember alot of us doing so, I even posted a topic on KI any many people complained.

And they fixed it!

Now the one last thing we need to complain about in the suggestions, is the abjurations. And since square seem to be listening to us, I can see Abj's being the next "fix" on the list

Fafnir uses Blood Weapon!
Fafnir uses Mighty Strikes!
Fafnir uses Hundred Fists!

Oh god that would be awesome.

Honestly doubt it keeps growing in strength while unclaimed. Most likely will graduly go back down to its original strength, but if you claim right after a wipe, it will probably be just as strong as when it killed the LS before. ;3

Having Fafnir / Nidhogg turn Super Saiyan will probably reduce drama from linkshells who immediately claim after other linkshells wipe. People are gonna think twice before claiming a beserked Fafnir.

[Not Kuno]

If you read carefully it says

- The notorious monsters listed below will slowly grow in strength after a certain amount of time has passed since being claimed

It wont grow to lvl 200 because an ls is preping to fight something and its just wandering around. And if its anything like fishing 'auto level grow thingy' it will gradually delevel after hate is gone.

[Raineer]

no more voke spamming

No more Gilseller/Better Connection/Bot claims? Or, at least, a drastic reduction of them?

I think it's mostly a lag correction... follow the logic (using bigger numbers for simplicity)

10:00 - Mob pops on server
10:01 - Mob pops on JP Client
10:03 - Mob pops on NA Client
10:05 - Window opens for claim, first lucky one wins

Ideally, anyone that tried to claim before 10:05 would be locked out for another 5 seconds (or whatever time they use). It adds a good amount of luck to it and although there are arguments like "JP vokes still reach the server faster", they are mitigated by the fact you still have to be the lucky one that hits first after the window opens. It almost eliminates connection advantage if they do it right.

*IF* it works like my example, I fuckin love this patch.

Oh, and <3 /blockaid too

Well the fished mob thing had different conditions when it grew in strength. Those grew from remaining unclaimed while the HNMs grow from being claimed. Assuming the fished mobs stop getting tougher once they're fought, I'd assume HNMs would stop getting tougher once unclaimed and with 0 hate on anyone. I was meaning like.. the statement that those fished mobs would grow in strength, never happened significantly to what I noticed. So I'm just wondering exactly how much harder will a Fafnir be who's been in purple letters for 90 minutes.

I hope they make wing damage increase over time... that would be fucking sexy to see everyone get *raped* for a 500-600 wing instead of the pussy 200-300 it is now.

[Not Kuno]

Those grew from remaining unclaimed while the HNMs grow from being claimed.

Unclaimed, yes, but with hate on a player. Thats essentially the same thing as having it claimed. Just like how mobs wont regen fast until they slaughtered every man/woman/child that got hate.

Althought it wasnt anything significant either, thats because you dont notice 1lvl/hour when the mob is level 2 and you're 75. You'll definatly notice it on an HNM.

[Roranora]

Hurricane Wing > Cyclone Wing? But I'm a taru. '-' It wouldn't even be safe for respectable LSs to watch a poor Fafnir attempt, hehe.

And Kuno, it was on those EP mobs in Kuftal, while fishing for Mantas and Angel skin, but then again, we didn't leave them roaming around terribly long; I guess I just didn't give them enough time.

God thats so annoying having LSes watch stuff like this from super close. It's ultra lagfest 2005. Get out of range and you'll live.


Yeah you have to wait a while before they level up. But it isnt anything really fast/it's aimed for places people afk fish.
