Remove Angry Goblin Window

[Teddie1056]

1. Make it 30 seconds
2. Shrink the window on the server
3. Unroot dragons
4. Make a 3x kill 1x lockout policy for raid mobs
5. Make Naethyn and Yendor play with me again.

All helpful, but what the game really needs is things like Angry Goblin having a chance to spawn off a handful of different NPC's in zone, and after one of those NPC's triggers the spawn, the chance then jumps to another random NPC in zone. Thus, people must dungeon crawl in order to get loot, not just sit in one spot and camp a single NPC.

The main reason 10 seconds is a bad idea is it is incredibly easy to break the rules by scripting an immediate roll. That is what I mean by exclusionary tactics. A few bad actors knew they could get away with this while forcing good intentioned players on a rule set that is not practical at all. 30 seconds is how you avoid rampant cheating.

Fair point

Sounds so simple.

10 secs allows cheaters to cheat. Disallowing real temp afkers from rolling.

30 secs allows a *reasonable* amount of time for real players to respond (on an 8hr window) while stopping reloging for another roll.

Advovates for the 10sec roll seem to need to justify their need for 10secs as opposed to 30 secs that offers advantages to non cheaters while passively disabling cheaters.

Just saying.

Having SWC isn't worth this nonsense, trust me.

Yeah. I want the 2nd ring but I'll buy a ring of lightning and/or go through the hassle of getting a pitted iron ring long before I ever attempt this kind of bullshit.

I love this dumb game just as much as anyone else but that mechanic is unemployed tier and I ain't got time for that.

Not a big fan of MQ, especially if it is just paying someone to bot for you.

edit: I appreciate i am the freak on this one.

I don't mind MQs but when it is on a very contested item I find that's a dick move.

What truly sucks is when you have almost no choice but to MQ.

I spent months in a top raid guild tracking Hate (I really wanted my epic). I finally gave up and bought the MQ from the Hate "soloer", because he had that much of an advantage (it wasn't a monopoly, but when one player is getting more minis than guilds are ...)
