ShadowGuard Request

[King Greg]

Change the Fountain and the Armoury Rooms to where the monsters spawn on an action like hitting the bell in the belfry.

As it is the Fountain is literally impossible to solve in too big of a party. And with the new "Enmity" 1 Damage tick, once so many monsters spawn in the armoury, you can't even pick which monster to attack because the 1 damage tick force changes your target.

Either that or put a cap on the spawn rate like what was added to the Guardian room of Doom. The spawn rate of about 4 players would be about right. An Mmorpg really shouldn't make it harder for players to play as a group.

Knowing the spawn rate I fail to understand why people continue to try and accomplish the fountain in large groups.

The only change I think that is really needed is the % chance to hit yourself with a bottle in the bar. Let's face it, after 18 years, I think most everyone can agree that the RNG doesn't treat everyone the same... so an encounter that ends up being a 20 minute RNG duel to throw bottles just isn't any fun.

 

[King Greg]

Well you can still kill the pirates without the bottles.

Show me a video of 10 person party solving the fountain with all 10 players in the room and i'll pay a platinum.

The armoury isn't that bad, its just the damage tick going off forcing you to change what target you are attacking that is insane.

Yes, but that is kind of counter to what I think the intent of the encounter is...

With most rooms there is at least a strategy you can employ to be "better" at completing the encounter... with the bar its just straight rng. My personal best streak is hitting myself 23 times in a row... now calculate the odd of hitting the same result even with a 50/50 chance 23 times in a row. If I could take that kind of luck to the casino, I would be typing this comment from my personal 150 foot yacht docked at my private island.
