World Boss Feedback

[Ranperre]

Overall this event was way, way better than last one. Last time, I couldn't even finish all three last time on my main character because it was so horrendous (super long fights, unbelievably long waits in the off hours). This time, you were in and out within an hour in every run I participated in (6). This works out to 5/3 of a token every hour, which is worth it to just about everyone atm.

Oddball ideas:
- Move the kraken closer to the spawn point or change up the order. Serb hills to Serb is a notoriously long zone (side note, this is one of the first zones new players experience, why is it still so bad?). Add in the long walk and a newbie that isn't quick to hit the portal can end up missing the fight entirely. Elti also has a long walk to Ciervos, but it isn't as much of an issue because it's harder to zerg down when half the people are deerified.

- Claudia can delay an ill-prepared group significantly. Perhaps Claudia's spawns should disappear after having her armor is depleted? Maybe after 15 minutes of engagement? I get that this might defeat the purpose, but good groups kite the adds and bad groups just die to them repeatedly. I wasn't there for the 6am edt spawn on the first cycle, but this time zone/spawn is exceedingly weak player-wise and led to a 20m delay for everyone else for two days until Jack reset them.
---- Ideally, you'd tie spawning the next boss to the death of the previous, but I'm not sure that's workable atm?

I thoroughly enjoyed this world boss event as well. I appreciated the admins resetting the clocks for the events especially too.

The two major gripes I ended-up having with the event were:
1) Clicking boss corpse - I found myself struggling on multiple bosses to be able to click the boss corpse instead of other players, their pets, or their tombstones. Also it can be hard to loot some of the lootable mobs (like the non-boss phoenixes)

2) 6 hour timer - So I don't dislike the 6 hours between boss fights specifically, but it turns out that a 6 hour delay between fights tends to be very inconvenient for people in the US (or likely people offset from US by ~6 hours)

-Friday: Midnight, 6AM, Noon, and 6PM overlap with typical US sleeping or worktime hours except 6PM for people on the east coast only.
- Saturday & Sunday: Midnight and 6AM are probably not viable for majority of the U.S.

Conclusion: It seems like a vast majority of US players would effectively have to do 3 out of the 4 Noon/6PM options on Saturday/Sunday to fully complete the event. Noon and 6PM are also typical lunch/dinner times, potentially making this a frustrating event to try to fit in.
