Possible Solution to the NASA Bot

Just use old BCNMs and instance the whole damn thing. The Ouryu -> B2 method was the simplest and easiest way to instance content and remove the need for bots. What killed B2 ultimately was making it completely zerg-able, not the idea of accessing it.

Tie KS30/BC50-60 battles to Faf/Behemoth/Adamatoise triggers. Players that enter the instance have a 3day lockout after going in and the recommended number of people to enter would be 18-24. Its like Einherjar except you have no trash mobs to deal with but harder versions of Faf/Behe/Adamantoise.

Make Adamantoise a Scholar or give Fafnir dancer JAs it really doesnt matter..... just instance the damn content already.

Player does BCNMs for Faf/Behe/Adamantoise triggers (breathe some life into the all but dead BCNMs that are all over the damn place - 50 cap jumps out) and then gets a shot at fighting the HNM on their own time. (No wierdfuck windows, no spending 3hrs a day... do it when you want)

For HQ instances, make it slightly interesting. An example would be during a Behemoth fight have KB spawn mid fight and use Meteor, killing the Behemoth/damaging you and beginning your King Behemoth fight. This would only happen if you happen to trip the HQ instance making it sorta like Sandworm where you never know what you are going to get.

The same idea could be transposed to a Monarch Linn Faf fight where during an HQ instance you might be pitted against Fafnir and Nidhogg at the same time by surprise.

Just up the NQ loot slightly (perhaps finally some unique gear for Adamantoise that isnt total garbage or some endgame gear on Behemoth) and keep the HQ instance drops the same as now. Mainly if the devs instance the content they have more room to make it difficult without affecting the current HNMs difficulty.

P.S: I know its theorycraft and probably wont happen.... guess what? I dont care.

[Seraphus]

So on another note, I have a personal question.

She did. Way to bring that back up, bitch.

Was your mom's name Barbara Bush?

[Okan]

Andrea Yates.

[Seraphus]

Ya know, tbh that name is very familiar for some reason...

She killed her 5 kids by drowning them in the bathtub

[Seraphus]

Wow that's fucking terrible

[Corrderio]

Yeah, don't know if she got off on terms of mental illness/insanity or not.

Was thinking about a new sign for Bagel when I read that! :D

I think i subconsciously imagined Bagels sig when i thought of that. It'd be funny as hell for sure.

Dancing dragon... this idea has potential >.>

The dancing orcs in WOTG are win.

I'd rather see a dancing Quadav. Them breakdancing on their backs would be funny >.>

Bots will always overcome any modifications to spawn conditions. It's still purely luck-based any way you put it. Either instance them in some way or go join an LS that does Einherjar.

[Conker]

People still care about rotz kings? Why not just join an Einherjar shell if you want the abj that bad... you wont have access to Ridill and shit but wouldnt you rather have a chance at an ABJ then not at all? In theory the "aoe stun" thing really wouldnt work bots are still active after stun wears off doesnt really fix the problem.

Anyway, does around 3 claims a week sound average to a HNMLS? Just trying to hammer out the details of that system I've been talking about which I might post in here later.

Some HNMLS claim 7 times a week if they're uncontested. There are other serves with LS that go months without claims because their members don't pay attention and afk during windows.

There is a distinct difference in an instance system where you let every group enter 3x a week, and a world spawn system where an LS claims 3x a week: how many times other people fight it. One system still maxes at 7 Fafnirs a week. With the "omgcompetitionsux" people entering the arena 3x Fafnirs a week per group could mean up to 70 pops a week. Look at Byakko when Ulli was changed, it wasn't just the previous groups fighting it, it was a lot of other people who flooded Sky.

The whole point of the world system is to limit drops by pitting people up against each other for one singular spawn that only one group gets. Any instancing of the system needs to come with some sort of hard cap or a severe reduction in drop % if you want to maintain gear equilibrium.

[Corrderio]

I can agree w/ you on that Gredival, but personaly me and a ton of ppl believe anything is better than the current system.

[dejet]

One can dream.

Anyway, thanks for not letting that D.Ring thing drag on. I just get competitive w/ PLD more than I should.

my shells not that great but when we camp a HNM we claim about 2 fafnirs 3 behemoths and one king of the 3 id say. based on avgs
