[QUOTE=Kyleena;12977]I made a thread about this rather backward change Tynon has implemented in Beta:


I am very dissapointed that this made it into Live servers.
They might as well have just given all players a random number and pick one of them to be the 10M coin winner.
One can literally join at the last minute and have a chance at killing the Boss.
A very backward move by Tynon, this one is.

------------------------------------------

The change with the Cerb/Baal boss is very good. If the developers ORIGINAL intention was to give the 10M randomly, as runes are given randomly and Tavern results are quite random except for certain VIP players who spend gems to flip more cards, then this is simply being consistent with the way the game runs. The way it worked for the longest time was the #1 or #2 player always got the final blow. 95% of the time is "always" - don't give me that crap about "everyone has a chance"... that is a bunch of bull at this point of the game. Early on, perhaps... Now? Heck no! It's quite obvious that the only ones complaining about this change are the people who rank top 3 in the Boss events. The top player in this that is complaining here the most gets over 13M in gold coins from the damage done to baal or cerb each time. That is 26 Mil gold coins per day. Does that 10M each event have to be yours each time as well? Are you really THAT greedy? What is wrong with a little random in this so that the wealth is spread out?

And the comments about skill and such? What skill is there in camping out waiting to hit when the numbers are low? And what skill is there in spending 2 or 4 or however many gems on that last "instant revive" click? It's the same as the glitch that existed with the Noble Lady - timing her disappearance to click on her to get the maximum benefit prior to anyone else from her next appearance point. Make it random and keep it that way. If you don't like it, then don't participate in those events. I don't like Pirates so I don't participate in that at all. I sure don't like supplementing the mega-coiner's map needs and I get what I need from guild wars in terms of those 10 points I don't get making a sail, so I get my 10 gems from the assistant daily. I just let my map rot.

And Dawnseeker has a great comment to make to those of you who are howling the most - if you don't like it don't let the door hit you on the way out! If you don't like it, don't participate! (Yeah right, I know you'll be there to collect your rewards LOL!) Now of course I have some harsh words about the Arena changes - but not on this. And even on that other stuff, I have my own fix for it. I won't participate in those things that I do not like. That won't stop me from enjoying the parts of this game that I do like but it may decrease the time I spend playing.
