Just wanted to let the staff know myself and more then a few others are finding some frustrations in world bosses. Im bringing this to the forums for opinions and hopeful resolutions.
My first issue is that the same people are killing the WB's over and over. People who do not have the better connections, the knowledge of what to look for where to go or how to get there are suffering for it. I understand its part of the game to hunt these guys down and a race to get to them. But more then one realmer has expressed their frustrations about not even knowing how to find these elusive npcs.
My suggestion : We create a database or an outside source can help to provide instructions on hunting WBs pictures of what they look like and links or info to help them locate and understand the scope of the fight against WBs.
The 2nd issue is that although some of us take part in these hunts. The notifications we get are horribly annoying and only serve to remind us what were not able to find or benefit from. Again not just myself but many others wish to have an option to not have to see these updates or be taunted by their inability to find a WB.
My suggestion : Make a separate tab like the events tab for WB information only. Would give people who aren't participating the relief of trading and chatting without interruption. Would also give people the chance to have chat about WBs and separate their going on's from trade or game help.
Again just observing and hoping to provide some positive feedback to a problem on the server. Love your guys work and respect the effort you put in daily for our entertainment. Please realmers comment on this I would love to here any other proposals ideas or critiques.
Thank you

I think they need to stop announcing them, in EQ2 when someone see a boss they yell it if a boss is killed then spawn them again after a certain time…JMO
here i DO agree, the frustration level is bad! Now i am not one to wanna stir up things BUT i HAVE seen something VERY wired to often with bosses.
The same people are APPEARING on screen of a world boss, killing them in just a few seconds and reappearing half way across the world killing another ALL in under 10 seconds! There is NO way this is possible not EVEN if they some how had another toon ON the screens summoning their group.
A few days ago i was LOOKING at Rean Tulor trying to get a screen shot for the website when 4 people appeared out of no where. I mean APPEARED!! not walking on to the screen.
So i really suggest GMS and devs look into this
Khego: t/eleport masterofmaze
Khego: mt
Info> Master of the Maze has been slain by Khego
…..I mean really?
ya I have to question what that's about …
Lol, obviously he was messing around
I don’t believe that removing notifications would be helpful. It takes up to 45 minutes sometimes to find Ali Khan as it is. Others are easier to find, but if you don’t know whether they are up, you could spend 100% of your time looking for bosses that haven’t even spawned. Since they provide master reagents this would be a far worse system. I do understand frustration with being unable to find them before others, as I can tell a big difference between one of my computers and the other while I’m searching. However, I am successful on both speeds because I studied the world map to understand where to look for them and I went to the two databases that already exist to see what they look like. Beyond that, practice makes perfect. If I prioritize world bosses while you prioritize towning or heroics, I SHOULD be better at finding them than you.
I agree with Stint,practice more,learn the map etc..We have all been subjected to having to watch people succeed greatly,and yes,it is annoying,but it's fair game. Perhaps someone with a better connection/speed has an advantage..,such is life. Go upgrade. Also I like the idea of making the notification be able to be turned off,or give it it's own tab,because i agree,when you are not hunting them,the pop ups are annoying.

Exactly what I saw. Weird eh!? I mentioned about something I saw like this in the other WB concern posted on here. I agree. It's not normal…(I have a gaming computer and fast internet, it's nothing to do with that, no upgrade needed.. as someone mentioned above …)
