World Mega Wybel

well, It clearly needs balancing and a bit of a rework.

thanks for bringing this to my attention

 

I mean for a raid boss, shouldn't you need an accesivle location for a lot of people to easily gather at? Having a random boss wander around isn't the best design for a "raid boss."

 

agreed, in the rework, I plan to design a reasonable location for the boss to spawn

 

I would have quite a few complaints if a suggestion like this were added. Increasing damage by much more would mean players who aren't using defense builds would be prone to being one-shotted, invalidating all other build types. Also, its ridiculously rare, and would many weeks of playing without stopping for the average group of players to find one. Most players typically shy away from the profession grind, which allows them to craft mythic equivalents with much greater ease and it doesn't take nearly as long. As tempting as a perfect mythic is, I think nobody would ever grind for this. This isn't a flaw that can be balanced without reducing the reward in some way, as grinds of that magnitude don't make an enjoyable game.

There's also the issue of the wybel boss altar being both a raid boss and a boss altar, meaning players can't prepare for the boss altar without the chance of receiving a smackdown from a musclebound ram thing.

 

just curious, what is the orange wybel that Dr legendary chimerized? was it the same one as the one at the boss altar?

 

It's a lore-breaker.

 

He said it can't spawn in towns, also if you're going to bash the idea of a random mob popping up at least come up with a valid reason. Like it doesn't scale to the player's level, so could appear to low level players and wipe them out :)

 

I mean, @Shots didn't say it could spawn in towns, specifically: the implication was likely that the mob enters a town

 

here's a valid reason for having a super op mob randomly appearing, it'll go on a rampage on people nearby who don't want to fight it, that's terrible game design. no one wants to have the most powerful boss in the game spawn near them and suddenly die, especially if it's like a new player that doesn't know about it
