Rejected Improve Deceitful Forest Boss Spawns & Timer

[Deyan]

I would like to suggest a few changes to the Deceitful Forest map that could greatly improve player experience and motivation. Currently, the map contains two bosses that spawn at random locations across the forest. While this adds unpredictability, in practice it makes the content unnecessarily frustrating. Entering Deceitful Forest is already challenging and time-consuming, and a large amount of that time is spent simply searching for the Ochao boss, often without success. Suggestion 1: Fixed Boss Spawn Locations Making the boss spawn locations fixed (or at least limited to a few known spots) would: • Reduce excessive searching time • Make the content feel more skill- and preparation-based rather than luck-based • Encourage more players to attempt the map consistently Suggestion 2: Forest Timer Based on Real Time (60 Minutes) Another improvement would be to change the forest timer to 60 real-life minutes instead of in-game time, disconnecting players after one hour. This would: • Prevent boss camping • Encourage active movement and engagement within the forest • Keep the map fair and dynamic Overall, these changes would make Deceitful Forest more approachable and rewarding. More players would be willing to enter the map, progress through the content, and prepare for future updates instead of avoiding it due to frustration and time loss. Thank you for taking this suggestion into consideration.

+1, I totally agree. I would also add that the respawn time of the Prince Ochao bosses in the Temple of Ochao should be changed and that they should all spawn at the same time. This would prevent players from camping every boss and would give everyone a fair chance to kill them.
As it is now, they spawn at different times, allowing the same person to control all the spots and kill every boss.

Bagjanamu is very fine as it is now. Mushroom queen is too easy and the random spawn actually allows everyone to try to do them. Fixed spawn would mean hated or Rb will camp 24/7
Totally against
