Area bosses limited entry mini dungeons (Anego/Samurai/BF/

While killing those area bosses is really nostalgic, many players choose not to kill them because of channel campers, limited channels and time loss looking for timers. Therefore, mini dungeons at anego, bf, hh, samurai, pianus left and right and crow could be created with a limited entry and without equip drop like YSS (anego) and ST (crow). However, only anego, bf and samurai mini dungeons would already help a lot. Twice a day entry for each could be a good call. Those maps gonna start to be more visited and more people gonna experience killing bosses. Exp gain from local bosses won’t be limited to camping with many mules/waiting for server restarts. Game gonna be more bosser friendly and less leech reliant. This gonna be another activity to gather friends to do together.

EDIT:
i know you can already kill many expedition like bosses for exp: Toad, 2x nib, 2x verga, 2x nameless, 2x krexel, 2x HT, 2x jiao and 1x BGA. Although, most of those bosses are really high level and 130-160 characters rely on only ZAK, 3 way jiao at a certain point and krexel. Hunting those area bosses is even harder for them because they kill them too slowly and are more likely to loose the tracked timers. In this sense, the dungeons would be another way of grinding at early 4th job.
After 160, you have many more options but the highest amount of exp is concentrated at HT. For people who don’t like/can’t HT because of the length of 2 runs, there’s not much exp available to grind bosses for exp until 170/175 (BGA/Toad). The high exp + drops make some people HT daily without even leaving the cave because of the elixir loss. I don’t think this is totally bad. Leave the cavemans where they want to be. The problems are: hting means the best way to gain exp bossing if you only have 3-4 hours a day to play, means interacting mostly to your squad and not exploring the maple world. The Area bosses mini dungeons are a way to offer another 50M exp for those who want only to toad/NT/JC.

EDIT 2: like watdatoast calculated, exp won’t be so OP. If it’s only 2x (samurai, anego, crow and bf), you won’t get more than 50m eph.

EDIT 3: this is no free exp as someone suggested because grinding at 5-6 with your ranged would actually give you better exp than killing all those bosses.

EDIT 4: i’ve just remembered something
Back then in GMS there was no mapowner rule so people could just KS war anegos and rush BFs into ranged. I feel like it was easier for me to kill them there than here.

EDIT 5:
Kalash: “This would actually make me do anego sometimes. I tried it before, but the toxicity around these area bosses is just nuts... It’s not a way of meeting people, it’s a way of growing hatred”.

EDIT 6 (Jun 2022)
It`s been a long time i suggested this. Back then, there were more players hunting for those bosses and less economy problems for staff to deal with. In this sense, i wouldn`t support it nowadays as staff time should be invested in ntpt 2 finalization, fixing the economy and removing safe spots for multimages. Maybe this could be discussed again when shadower/hero and dk get a worthy spot in this game again.

 

People gonna continue hunting for them. killing 10 anegos is better than killing 2.

 

what is your approach? how to solve boss campers and many people not experiencing this content? Adding channels is not a good ideia and won’t be implemented.
Making these dungeons would make more people go to those maps and make the game less leech reliant. On the same time, it won’t break leech meta. It’s only going be something else to do with friends to get exp and live nostalgia. The fact that they weren’t designed to be daily bosses doesn’t convince me that the ideia is bad. People gonna continue hunt for the regular bosses, then the area boss nature gonna persist

 

Exp is not going to be that OP as people think. I bet it’s not comparable to a cleaver 50M eph at 7F. Gonna calculate latter.
I don’t like the idea of party boss quest because it doesn’t make people explore the world as they would with mini dungeons.

dungeons have time limit and entering them just to keep players away would be bannable as this is griefing. The fact that there are that many bf doesn’t change that all then are killed really fast and many players don’t even try to kill them because of the reason mentioned on the main post.

 

entering HT and not summoning it is considered griefing and bannable. Also, the risk of people doing idiot things can’t be a reason to invalidate good ideas
