IDEAS FOR RYZOM

I'm sorry...what?

First of all, it's hardly systematic. It's not like I spend all my time scouting and even if I did, I won't find all the bosses all the time. There are quite a lot of other hunters. Bosses have a long respawn timer as well and I don't camp spawns of the important ones, so I would hardly call it farming.

Secondly, there are some boss mats that are always needed. Shooketh buds, Madakoo eyes, Yelkoo shrooms...I could go on. It's not just filling the GH with mats that will never be used (though quite a number of boss mats are useless anyway). At least not in my guild. And there are also bosses nobody hunts. I have seen Jukoo in its spot for the past 2 weeks and nobody has so much as touched it because it's a worthless weed with materials nobody wants.

Thirdly, by your logic, doing literally anything that means a resource won't be available to others for a while is "rude". This means: doing any NPC boss, digging sup and exc mats in PR, hunting nameds and bosses. This makes no sense. On one hand, you complain that resources are too readily available (exactly because it was assumed there would be competition and not everyone would be able to acquire them), on the other that taking them, making them unavailable for others is a bad thing. Make up your mind.

Not to mention, nothing is stopping the guilds who didn't kill the boss from trading for the boss mats with those who did. Last time I checked, items in this game weren't soulbound.

Lastly, I will explain why I personally hunt. It will probably go right over your head anyway (because you have shown many times that you refuse to listen and have explicitly ignored parts of my posts), but it's worth a shot. Bosshunting is personal to me. I was taught how to do it by someone who was a hunter, a mentor to me and a dear friend. This person doesn't play anymore, and I see continuing what he loved doing as taking up the torch after him. But, even if that weren't the case, I would likely do it because it's fun. Because there are bosses who provide a challenge (Kinkoo comes to mind, I like that the healers can't go asleep pushing one button, he's my favourite boss for sure) and also because I see it as competition among bosshunters. When I see that 5 other people are around Atys scouting, it feels all the better when I'm the one who finds a boss.

Is it somewhat time-sinking? Sure. But it's a time sink with a reward that's worth the trouble. Unlike running everywhere on foot just because a bunch of people with extremist views think teleportation is bad. I hope you can see the difference between arriving at a destination and essentially winning a trophy for beating other hunters in a race to find a boss. You are really comparing apples to oranges here.

Once again, the only argument you have is "your fun is wrong".
