Heres something else for you slow clickers out there, when you click and leave that stamp picture up for a long time (lets say 5mins and up) you will still get the boss. More testing is necessary though, I can't be 100% sure, but the last 2 times I tried I still went into a room and the boss was there with nobody else. At least this way you don't have to worry about anyone else killing you or killing it before you even arrive.
edit: Tried it 3 times now, seems to work just fine. This will help low lvls and people that click in too slow. I know tons of low lvls can't even make a dent on DB boss.

Now if only there was a way to rig the RNG in your favor and teleport you to classes you still need lol.

I just started on Greatest. I only needed AB to finish and I kept getting other classes for 3-4 hours, until RNG was finally nice to me.

I'm 4 bosses from Bronze still =(
It's even more annoying because one of them is the Angelic Buster who is "locked" even though I've been to her room at least 3 times.
Meh.

The room being "locked" doesn't mean anything. It does not affect your odds of getting the room. It just means the game hasn't given you the room yet. Or at least it doesn't think you have.

I feel ya, and worse part is, when they repeat on us like 10+ times in a row when we only have 1 left =_=.

This event is weird and varies between characters for no real reason. Most people are stuck trying to get sent to the right room, but I always get sent to the most recently "unlocked" portrait without fail and have to wait for the portraits to unlock instead.

I have no idea what determines what room you get, but everyone is plagued by repeats. I've gotten demon slayer 5 times in a row before <_<; Again, the room being locked has no bearing on anything, as they are all "locked" when you start the quest. It's simply there to show which ones you have and have not already encountered.

I've been getting Mercedes, Mechanic, and the occasional Oz all day.
Apparently it's not bad enough that I can only get the notice once per hour for some reason.

I don't ever get sent into a locked room. Not ever. I close the board when I don't see any new unlocked rooms because I know I'll get sent to a repeat.
Point of my post is mostly to point out generalizations. Experiences vary, unless I'm the only dude in MS with this problem/blessing.
Maybe I'm just not articulating exactly what's happening well enough.

It's just bad luck. According to your logic, you would never get past the first room since you can't ever get sent into a "locked room". As you get closer to being done with your board, it seems to prioritize bosses/rooms you haven't beaten/been to yet for some reason. Just keep trying, you'll see what I mean.

Portraits unlock throughout the day, randomly. I do the first room and then ignore the event until new rooms unlock. This isn't a theory or argument, it is exactly how things go down for my character.

How do you start the event? I always end up in an empty map with few other people. No npc or anything.
I thought it was glitched.

It should be fixed now... the pop-ups for it appear every 30 minutes to an hour (For some reason this varies depending on the person.) at :10 and :40 after, or at :50 after for the folks that only get it once every hour.
As for your issue, the bosses should spawn whenever you go into the room now. Do you see a line of dialogue from the boss when you enter the room?

More importantly, do you see a timer?
The timer starts out at 5 minutes, and the boss is usually dead within 10-20 seconds. If you click too slow and enter the room with the timer at 4 minutes, for example, the boss has already been and gone.
I try to ask people to wait whenever I get in a room. Sometimes it even works - but only because my being 200 makes everyone else there MISS the boss. And then they are killed and I feel bad.
Anyway, when I'm alone I wait for a minute before killing, but most people are in a big hurry. Be alert and click fast.
