But see, that's what makes it more like a *bounty*. You have to track down the boss before you slay him.

And I guess if you are trying HM... you could always just vanq the area while you're trying to find him.

But yeah, more bosses on the list plx. Just once I'd like to have the boss I need a skill cap from (of which there are a lot as I'm an ESH, so it's not like I want super specific ones) to be the bounty, instead of some obscure boss at the end of the second level of a dungeon. It always feels like the EotN guys, really obscure Canthan guys (who actually fights Baubao Wavewrath in normal play, anyways?), and FoW/UW guys are overrepresented.
I mean, there are 22 dungeon bosses, 5 FoW/UW/DoA/Tombs bosses, 1 SF boss, plus Kanaxai, Urgoz, and Rotscale, if I counted correctly. Gack. That's about half the ZBounties right there. Did I mention there are 9 more non-dungeon EotN bosses, plus the Realm of Torment bounties (both of which require not one, but 2 or 4)... Why? Whywhywhy? I know they want us to put in some effort, but seriously. Actually, are there any Proph bosses besides Rotscale and the Iron Forgeman listed at all? Obnoxious...

You know something's wrong when this list of supposedly infamous bosses fails to include Maw the Mountain Heart.

Would love to see some more bosses, but the missions are fine. I'd even be happy seeing the Prophecies bosses that have a random chance to not show up. Of course I'd expect that to increase the reward some, but it wouldn't be that hard to do. LOTs and LOTs of bosses to be used, and several good candidates have been 'ignored'. Not sure why, but I doubt it will be changed. I think any boss that has an elite skill is worthy of a bounty, although the ones too easily reached could be left out.

yeah i hate the repeats too except ones like tihark,runable uw bosses.

The randomness of proph bosses is what would make the zmission fun, signed for every boss in game, like skitt skizzle /coolface

we discussed this a little while back in this thread:

As of June 11 it's simply a matter of cycling repeatedly through the 68 missions in order and the 66 bounties in order. Everything that's included gets equal play. The sense of imbalance comes only from the fact that about 2/3 of them got an extra appearance between April and June 11 before the order was changed.

Sadly these are now more like zzzzzzz-quests

False Maria · Sep 10, 2009, 07:49 PM // 19:49

What they should do, is make the Zquests into actual Z-Quests.

Perhaps I should explain.

Right now the Z-missions are only the missions in the game. They should add to the rotation other things like solo missions (the one with the ice griffin, for example) master quests (defending the eye) and dungeon quests (the ones in bloodstone caves). Of course these quests would have to become repeatable but only when they z-quest is active, that way you don't farm them all day long when they aren't active.

zelgadissan · Sep 10, 2009, 07:56 PM // 19:56

I could really get behind that idea, Maria. I'd love to see stuff like Defend Droknar's Forge as a mission.

I'd honestly prefer if they repeated with more frequency. In the brief time I was doing the Zaishen Quests I would occasionally do both the mission and bounty depending on which they were. Sure it would be more repetitive, but it's a one time thing a day. Heck other MMOs adapt daily quests where it is the same thing day in day out but it never becomes a bother; more of a routine.
