World Mythic Drop Indicator (picture Explains It Better) (in The Server Of Course)

Just think of the poor souls farming on ice heights, csst, ahmsord, etc. Farming for hours upon end, with dozens and dozens of mob drops. As the player continues to farm, he struggles more and more to inspect each item...

"this one could be a mythic"
"or this one"
"maybe the next one-arrrrrrgh!"

Five mobs brutally smash an innocent adventurer to his death.

Introduction
Wynnexpansion used to have a feature similar to the one I am suggesting, but it caused an uneven playing field (which was unfair to those without the mod / knowledge of the mod). However, if the server ran this feature itself, it would be okay because the playing field would be even.

Summary
Upon finding a mythic [mob killed] [chest opened], there would be a huge upward beam effect (like 200 blocks), with the player's name around 3 blocks above the mythic drop (to prevent ppl fighting over the mythic hoping they get it). Perhaps legendaries could have a small outline too (no beam).

Pros
+ Easier to see mythics / legendaries
+ Run by server - even playing field
+ Potential for more interactions / cool moments of seeing the beam from a distance
+ Eliminates fear of missing a mythic drop
+ Eliminates saltiness of feature being removed from wynnexpansion, converting salt to happiness

Cons
- programming time
- extra lag?
- viability? Is such a thing programmable?
- potential increased jealously depending on the player's mindset / personality

Any feedback appreciated

 

I love the idea! You should add a poll so we can vote though.

 

But now I can't be scrolling over items in a loot chest and see 1 random purple one. ):

 

thanks for telling me, I just added a poll

 

Looks suspiciously similar to the "you got a good drop" bean on the chest in Chambers of Xeric in OSRS
Is good tho

 

Yes and make it look exactly like the amazing concept art you have provided.

 

@TurboStratus When you say that the beam effect is 200 blocks, what feature of it are you describing? And is the actual size of the beam itself the same size as shown in the picture?

 

as in 200 blocks high, and a 1 block radius. In the game I'd anticipate it being a vertical beam that can be clearly seen even from a distance

 

Like a beacon beam?

 

Honestly this sounds awesome.

 

pretty much, except purple-ish like mythics and also a bit wider

 

I’m not sure about this but i think i heard from somewhere that something similar will be add to the game something like an announcement when you get a mythic.

 

Always wonder who thinks it’s funny to vote no on an actually good suggestion.

 

oo interesting, I hope you're right :D

 

Bumpyyyyyy

 

bumpyyyyy praying that others like dis

 

I agree i was farming in viserial cave and a used a potion with 1 left and i picked up a legendary spear
so after that with like 100-300 items on the ground i went through all of them and found 10 more legendary's it took about 20 minutes to go through all so i think this would be a amazing for just seeing the items on the ground
