Nyzul boss floor ramparts

[Xrave]

Does anyone know what these actually do? Increase drop rate? Decreased boss difficulty? My group always kills them just to get them out of the way, but was wondering if anyone has noticed a purpose.

From what i think:

-They are there to explain how the HNM is there. (Obviously it pulled it outta its wild habitat into the ruins of Alzadaal with Reinforcements!)
-To build TP on for the HNM fight, if you dont have TP from the floor below.

Clearly increases drop rate.

8/9 killing rampart (7/8 on floor 80)

Clearly.

:rocl:

honestly, for building tp i think

[ronin sparthos]

Your drop rates make me want to stab myself....

We got like roughly 1 drop every 4 floor 80 HNMs ~.~

Pretty sure SE put them on every floor to explain how all the mobs got inside the ruins like ronin sparthos said. They do make a great TP builder though. :nikkei:
