    Honestly i think a simple solution would be to make the enemy stronger the further it was from its spawn, although not in any significant increase over short distances but perhaps a very slow increase over long distances. That way people can choose to kill things far away, but have greater difficulty or just fight it at its spawn at normal difficulty. Just a thought really, vaguely like ffxi's timed "rage" except that if people exploit the monster by pulling it too far it becomes stronger.

    lol defending, if you would read, I was giving valid reasons why its needed in this particular type of event system which no other game at the moment is doing exactly the way its being done here. Do you know of any? I even added that maybe 14 is using it as there is an event system that they might be adding that will make use of it.

    I honestly do not think you understand how the events/game work and why timed leash is a bad idea.

    but anyway if being a douche makes you happy, all power to you. The game is not even in beta yet, really doesn't matter, there are lots of things that need fixing/tweaking, but for whats shown so far actually working, its pretty awesome already.

    and yes if you may, after playing the demos a couple times, you can put me on the very top of the defense force list, because I have not ever been more impressed. I assure you if you get some time in with it you will join up too lol.

    Blah blah blah, here's "what I understand". I just watched a video where 20+ times a non-event mob would turn around and leash before reaching a ranged attacker who stood still, spammed attacks, and occasionally backpedaled. If your paper theories make you feel better, take it and run. I was commenting on what I saw, you're commenting on what you think would/should happen.

    No, I am commenting on actually playing the game, and talking to the devs, as opposed to "what you saw", why are so angry anyway? I am not even trying to argue lol, I know exactly what you are saying and I am telling you there is a reason for it, it may not be perfect and again the game is still in development.

    Anyway if it makes you happy, you win, you are absolutely correct.

    Great, you think there's a reason for it. Thanks for sharing. That doesn't mean its not happening, and doesn't mean that its not an obvious headache for ranged attackers.

    I think you are just as bad for making assumptions on a video, over someone that actually played the game, in which I had no problem with range attacks, and again the reason for the leash came from the devs, not me. What exactly are you looking for? I still don't understand the hostility lol. I am just sharing as I had first hand experience and asked about the leashing during the demo time, obviously you have an issue??

    Holy shit. I'm not judging anything, I made a simple comment on what I saw. And even started the comment off with 'awesome vids'. I'm sorry it wasn't enthusiastic enough to override your defense squad oath.

    Actually you were very judgmental, since all I did was share the info I had on something you brought up, stating the facts I had about it. Obviously since you assumed it was coming from me and my point of view, it was not good enough for you to accept. Hence your ridiculous defense squad comments, which came out of nowhere.

    But since I know you from ragnarok, I will let it slide lol.

    FYI, I will post concerns about it on forums the devs do read and reply to. Cus it was a good valid point, this was the main reason for me asking why was it a bad idea in the first place, to get input.

    I'm starting to think that this is just a natural phenomenon of MMOs. One or two people become really big fans of it on a forum, and they are the ones who seem to function as the hype makers and primary information providers, the negative consequence of this of course is that they tend to be very fanatical about the game and at times unreasonably defend it.

    But i am probably only rationalizing the fact that i prefer takiwaki over foxer/mioko because mioko defended the shitiest game in history and foxer was kind of pedo and a rice chaser.
