Thread: PLease change the Placeholder-System on Rubi-KA

    PLease change the Placeholder-System on Rubi-KA

    Please change the placeholder system! It is so discouraging when you need to kill 5 hours every 20 minutes a placeholder for the end to kill a boss does not drops what you need.

    My Suggestions:
    - Reduce the respawn time of the placeholder to 5 minutes
    or
    - Make a 100% spawn of the Boss and after bosskill a 100% spawn of Placeholder, like PH - Boss -PH -Boss-....

    Bump for the last suggestion.

    Absolutely! It's fine if you have to kill the placeholder first, but random spawns are incredibly frustrating!

    I'd really love to have a beeping backpack for example, but I've killed so many placeholders and I've only seen the actual boss a handful of times. It's a wall of RNG that's really discouraging, and is just plain not good content.

    i think you guys are missing the point. farming loot in ao is supposed to make you commit suicide. its intentional.

    Not sure how I feel about this. I don't mind the system itself, the odds could be tweaked a little but imho not to the extent OP wants.

    @Litestrider: Duuude go do collector. Me and my friends have deleted an insane amount of beeping backpacks because it's so common there.

    Well I guess I should say I want a beeping backpack on a few lowbies who don't have pande access! :P It was mostly just an example for me, it was the first item that sprung to mind as "oh hey that's neat I really wish I had one!" followed by grueling, miserable placeholder farming that made me give up.

    100% spawn would be ideal.

    ah! That's a little more annoying to do, then

    I've been around for a little while and farmed ph's a lot.. it's not a mechanic I'd like gone. That said, I get your frustration and there should be a compromise of some sort. 50% boss spawn rate with a low minimum max ph spawns in a row would be nice imo.

    Bump

    The Dust Brigade Generals have no Placeholder now. There are much more useless Placeholder that drops "nothing".
