(Renowned) Need something done.

They either need to have a special drop every time with an included chance at what they can now, I don't know what maybe 2 to 3 relic fragments or something. Other then that they should have a counter that if you kill 25% of the spawn and leave then you can't come back into the abyss for 6 hours unless you come back in 15 min and kill/help kill the thing.

Sick of people killing the small spawn then leaving them, then they come back once the renowned have been killed, who knows maybe they are hiding and watching either way it sucks.

I'd agree to this as long as the rats gave something less than relic fragments. They're too easy to kill for that big of a reward.

I have not taken on all of the reknowns, but at least for the ratmen, i agree.

These guys are harder to kill than the reknowned fire daemon. Geez, he's a FIRE DAEMON, and they are itty bitty little ratmen, but i can take him down with little problem, but spend 10 minutes banging away on a little ratboy.

Maybe a tinkerer should be able to create a better moustrap that we can take down to the cavern of the discarded to deal with these roid raging ratmen,

I have killed countless Renowned, Rat, Wyvern, Fire Ele, and others, and gotten nothing off of them. The gold is not even enough to cover the cost of the aids I use while killing them.

Aren't the renowned creatures an ingame anti scripting mechanism?

Who cares? The renowned ratmen are just annoying. They aren't even hard. I can AFK them...but they take ages and give crap for loot.

I don't know about the rats being easy, maybe easy in the don't hurt you but they take forever to kill really. I can kill the Wyvern faster.

As for the anti scripting thing, probably but the problem there is you can leave when they spawn. So some other poor sucker like me has to kill it, then when its done they run back in and kill the small spawn again and leave. So was a good try but there are problems with it.

How about renowned pixie?... Usually I end up killing it alone while others kill the lava spawn while waiting for someone else to kill the pixie.

Yes, they do need a special drop

I like that its a low drop rate for the renowned, it keeps their special loot rare. But I can see how that would annoy some people. I personally love it when people leave the renowned for me to kill. :heart:

Anyways, I'd probably prefer if they were going to do something that they did a tot style/doom style fame increment so when you kill lots of renowneds your chance of getting a drop increases each time.

I am not talking about changing that part of the drop, I mean there should be something worth while to do them as a side thing but not over the top crazy stuff.

i think they just need a loyalty boost and basic loot boost. like more gold and few more random magic items. other than that they are fine, they give ingrediants and possibility of a Sartie (sa artie :p) only issue is the luring off.

I know something needs to be done about the renowned loot.... takes forever to kill the things and seems folk work up the small stuff and keep leaving the renowned...

Totally bites when I come along looking to do some spawn and have to go out searching for the renowned boss too cause some jerkus lead it away... and didn't kill it.

That stinking fairy takes me about 40 min to finally kill and then the spawn only takes me 10 min to get her back... But at least I kill her...

Yesterday I found her down by the fairy dragons... I don't know where she went after awhile.. but she was poof gone.

I hear slasher eats her in two glitter-filled bites, might be faster luring her to him than DIY.

The Renowned do give arties. I got a pillar of strength.. well on the ground at the wyvern and a staff of shattered dreams off something renowned probably the fire demon.

Pixie's your best friend. Lure her to any spawn and she'll kill everything there by herself including the renowned. All you do is just loot and invis. But as others are saying, she's a quick snack for Slasher.

I like all the renowns but the rats. They are ridiculous. If I never get a special reward from the rest I m ok with that. They are reasonable in their difficulty.
