PvP World Boss

[IKerensky]

Excuse me but who thought this was a good idea and more importantly: WHAT IS THE EFFING POINT ?

Have melee character not able to approach the Boss without getting mauled by AoE ? Have grievers spawning in and out taking pot-shot at players ? Condemning solo and lower level character not to be able to participate ?

What are they aiming to achieve ? what is the goal ?

It is guild content... for people in guilds. You go with your guild and fight the other guilds for the loot on the boss. Hope that clears things up.

Melee have range and buffs to stay alive.,
Spawn is a safe zone you goober
Low lever players will die... a lot... but get exp and loot for their trouble way above their grade.

Seems like the goal is you're a grumpy duck and only looking at the negatives :)

PVP game... At least here you still have a chance to hit boss. If you try Lineage 2, good luck getting to e.g. Bajum, where the entrance is guarded by 150+ players and to get there, you have to click on the small statue behind them. I've been playing l2 for over 10 years and I finally have a new game that isn't afraid of pvp.

Its a pvp game...

pvp bosses was never a good idea. I remember some bosses in warcraft pvp servers where only the biggest and most sweat guilds would get a piece of the cake. Its not very nice ofc and some say this could compromise the longevity of the game. Who knows . But id prefer if everyone had a shot at it. Specially if its supposed to be the best loot. Tho cant say whats the right approach on this. All i remember is not having any fun in wow world boss encounters as there was 0 point in even being there. Ultimately it was free loot for the big guilds tho.

My suggestion would be to have such a world pvp boss have it on certain weeks as a guild boss where you can go in in peace and have a shot at it. At the very least to try the boss . This would incentive pvpers still fight for the world boss while the casuals at least get to try the boss and its mechanics once in a while in the guild hall.

There i fixed it.

You can also go to peace bosses. Those are for solos and non pvp players.

The point is to force you to compete with other people.

Competition drives sales. Tired of losing? Swipe your credit card and buy power. Now you can wipe them instead and claim all the boss loot for yourself.

On my server, we have a single dominant guild that wipes people out every world boss and public dungeon night. They are doing their best to deny people loot and then selling the loot they get from being the only guild allowed near the boss to whales for $200+ in lucent.

The strong get rich and can afford to buy even more strength. Just like real life. If you want to compete, put your wallet into the ball game.

It's a P2W product, they want you to get carried.

1. Find yourself a guild
2. Post in LFG to find yourself a group
3. Learn the mechanics and block, jump, dodge, run away when needed to not get hit.

That's what you need to do to be able to participate.
And all areas have a level limit and it only takes like 10-12 hours tops to get to lvl 50 so just level up, gear up and try again.
