GMST Class Testing

Free spawning bosses are a dumb idea in general.

Yeah, no idea why they don't make more stuff like pap (zakum is getting to be the new pap as people are much stronger).

Yeah I'll be taking advantage of this if it makes it to GMS and I level up enough.
.

Hahah. Like it will actually be possible to battle bosses like that without a dozen others there to steal the exp? At least it will just be a battle of DPS and not any rushing and killing other players.

I agree completely, at least when the exp reward is so big. Stupid. I'm looking at you JMS dev team. >_>

And after that you won't have the boss for you because those same guys will be killing them instead.

Well atm i only know a handful people in Bera who can effectively KS me there, so im not worrying about more ppl searching the bosses, since i
usually have many tracks Thats not the problem. The Problem is KS/Rusher safe your IGN and track you and when you found a boss they just CC and try to
rush it in you.

Survivability?
There's no reason why only people who HP washed 13940381743 times can go kill Toad for experience.

Or maybe it's a boss meant for melee/mages. As a warrior pre BB, (and pre potential I guess) could have never hoped to go Grandpa Boss so I don't see why Toad being inaccessible without heavy washing is a problem.

But I guess if you wanted to make it more fair, at least make it 7-8k not 1.2 or 12k >_>

(55.2+2.15*0)*120/15 = 441.6 accuracy needed to 100% hit.
I'm not saying it was very likely for a warrior to 100% hit it, but with a basket it was possible to hit it most of the time and still manage to do it.

Doesnt matter if you have the best DPS out of all the hunters in your server. Bosses that are free for all, weak as pomegranate and giving EXP enough to be just about the best source in MS will ensure a dozen or so hunters at all times. With that many, you can rest assured you will never get to kill the boss alone. You might get the bear share of the exp but with 4 other semi strong hunters, that will not be as nifty.

My main concern is not even with the laughable damage they do post BB or the hax fast leveling that could mean to exploiters. I just hate the drama generated. They should just take all the free spawning bosses with great EXP and put them in rooms that lock down when someone enters and have a limit of X visits per day. That way everybody could get nifty EXP and not just a handful of KSers like currently.

Amen, brother.

People ask me why I prefer grinding at Ob4 to Bigfoot. I tell them I hate the drama. And I play in sparsely-populated Kradia, and live in GMT+2 timezone. I can't imagine the stress of trying to bigfoot on a big server at prime time. Last year's Dark Token event, only every day? No thanks.

@Shidoshi: I like the way "zak is the new pap". I see more and more people asking "can I add you to expedition so I can solo Zak?". I hope they allow normal Zakum on more channels, though. Just like Papulatus.

I strolled down to Zakum altar and saw that channel 3-6 is for reg old Zakum and 10-11 (?) is for Chaos Zak. Previously there was just 3 zak channels (4-6) and 1 czak (11) right?

well since i usually have many tracks, because the spawntimes are deep in the night (PST times). Its still ok because then i still get exp, even if its only 60% of the FullEXP , its also way better than 0% because rushers tries to kill you.

This is the best solution to me, just lock a boss when someone/ a party enter(s), so much drama will be avoided.
works fine fine for pap, zak.... why not for other area bosses...

At least they ks or rush you. In my world, when the kids see you at anego/bigfoot/samurai, they will spam d/c you nonstop for 3 weeks

The worst part is: you still get spam even when you leave those bosses. I myself got spam when chatting with friends in FM

It costs me nothing to kill and doesn't drop anything valuable so I don't really care... The faster it dies the sooner I get exp.

Kinda like BF, I treat it as a FFA for anyone who can hit the boss. It's not KSing, they're in public places for a reason (viz: nexon are idiots and think sharing bosses is fun).

The only real problem is when you kill bosses like that for quests. I'd be pissed off for sure if someone walks in and steal my Fat frog etc drops post BB. I agree the exp part aint all that troubling. Getting to 200 is easy enough with or without bosses.

I've been getting DC'd for about 4 hours now because a NL on my server saw that I was back at anego n_n. Been hidden in the CS for a while now~ Sad thing is that DC is and always was the only way he could beat somebody in an Anego war kid is weak as hell even with MW30.

From the Adventurers skill thread:

Phoenix
Description Temporarily summons Phoenix to deal Fire damage to up to 4 monsters. Has a chance to Knock-down enemies. \nRequired skill: #cSilver Hawk Lv. 15#

1	MP Cost: 40, Summon Duration: 104 sec, Damage: 215%, Max Monsters Hit: 4, Knock-down Chance: 37%
30	MP Cost: 100, Summon Duration: 220 sec, Damage: 360%, Max Monsters Hit: 4, Knock-down Chance: 95%

What is this knockdown effect? Is it the same as knockback? That could be quite annoying when it knockbacks a monster out of your range.

I tried to look at videos, but I could only find BMs bossing while Phoenix just did damage.

I believe that's stun percentage.

Does infinity affect DoT?

I believe that's stun percentage.

I just logged my BM in to test it.

My phoenix is lvl 10 and he randomly stuns monsters now, same like hawk does.
Phonix dealt about 18k dmg on lvl 10. my att range was 7.6k with Concentrate 10 and 8 att pot and mw10.

How does hypnotize affect bigfoot now? funky (if it works bf stops or turns around running) like before bb?
