[Tip]Avoiding soloing bosses

Actually a lot of servers have a problem with bosses being camped and soloed by limited number of players while newbies got no chance of knowing the times of the respawn. Usually it's just 1 guild doing them
So I wanted to make a small tip on how to avoid it:

Create a NPC with a quest with objective of killing the boss let's say Cryptic.

As a reward for completing the quest player receives a bag from the NPC - the bag gives the same things as originally the boss would drop at lower droprate (that I'd recommend as ideally it would be a lot of people doing the quest)

As a result people should encourage as many people to join as possible, even newbies in order to get the most items possible, which hopefully would promote good old teamwork :P

The only problems I see would be:
- The NPC should be as close as possible to the boss, same map and everything or players would be unhappy to go on some other map just to get the quest before killing the boss

- MMs might get annoying with that, I'd recommend using different bosses for MMs, not the quest ones

What do you think? ^^

It seems perfect and even thought had occurred to me, but this kind of idea are good to remember what is team work and leave behind the monopoly in the game, giving option to new players and other guilds.

Good initiative to share the idea, greetings!

only bad side i believe might be double/multi accounting here

Oui, that could be the problem, I guess the only way to fight it is to increase boss difficulty so you can't just autodps it and go on other toon meanwhile (more debuffs, stronger attacks etc), so that people will clearly see who's not doing anything

stun and dark sigil types, plus make the boss spawns a couple of mobs (the annoiyng ones) around him every amounts of time may be.
