Let's be real, no natural spawns and everything somehow on a magical repop system (I still don't know how to reconcile 3 day and 7 day spawns if everything is a random repop), is only going to benefit guilds such as yours, mine, and C - who have members that will log in for a batphone that occurs at whatever random time.

There are guilds that already don't even want to drag their members out of bed for a spawn that they know about, much less one that is totally random.

Didn't think much about those 3 day spawns. Meh. Draco should be 7 and Maestro should be 12 hr anyways if we want to be classic (wru fixed pending updated). Trakanon can have some sort of specialness for him I'm sure since he is already special in his own right.

It will benefit those guilds only when it happens in a bad time frame. Which is literally no different from the current situation. Their class R spawns can occur at 4 AM on a weekday. Knowing that the window goes into that time period doesn't help if you aren't willing to get up at that time.

Knowing your window is certainly helpful for more casual guilds, but really only in the favorable time spans for your members. As I mentioned earlier.

However if it happens during Europa's prime time for example they may be able to knock out an FFA mob which they never would've socked or tracked beforehand. Or it may spawn in the middle of the euro workday and they won't have a shot... No different than the spawns currently, except you don't have to devote 3-4 people to sitting at designated spots waiting to FTE for a 16 hour window.
