Currently the rotation for bosses is 8 hours so a boss is always available at the same time every day. If the rotation was changed to 7 hours they would be different every day and would produce an 7 day rotation. For example a boss spawns at midnight on day 1 and spawned every 7 hours over a week they would be available 1 at every hour over the course of a week.

I really think the new rotation system was by and large implemented poorly and needs a lot of work, but this is a simple change which could do some good in the meantime.

Why can’t we just get our good, old nice system back where we could happily kill every single boss in at most 2 hours?

It’s reset. Time to kill Shatterer.

It’s more like going to work and getting a job done than killing monsters that appear in the world.

The times for the big bosses need changing to every 3 hours 7 is to long

Because then you would be able to actually get loot.

BTW did you know that you can buy gold with gems?

But seriously, rotation is needed. The only big one that I am usually online to do is Karka Queen now. And agree w/ above poster – seems like a job with schedules.

I’d rather have boss timers than not, because going to an API tracking site and waiting a half hour for a spawn is utter garbage.

BUT, the schedule needs a huge fix. A 3 hour rotation would fit many more people for their actual play periods. And there’s no need to have “the one featured boss of this 15-minute period.”

One of the reasons we get such huge zergs on these bosses is that the boss of the quarter-hour is the only interesting thing going on at the time. If they spawned parallel to each other, that would split the players between boss runs and provide a little choice. (The other way is to lower the population cap. Because 75-100 people don’t need to gangkitten Ulgoth. Seriously.)

Many alts; handle it!

Very confusing, can someone explain the new times corresponding with EU times or not?

+1 gmt (zone), karka was 18:00 and tequatl 19:00. Is this the same or not. Whole maps of zergs are confused about this fact.

Legendary weapons can be hidden now!
No excuse anymore for not giving ‘hide mounts’-option
No thanks to unidentified weapons.
