I think weekly simulated patches plus regular pops that aren't affected by the patches is too many boss mobs for this low population. Not that I am opposed to giving people more chance at loot, but things are going to get flooded fast.

Sounds great! My only complaint is that a repop every week is a lot, but its not like I have a big issue with it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
More is better in a way. I just think it would be more interesting if there are random weeks without repops.

I like your solution to the resetting of the respawn timer. This will allow for more attempts on the mobs.
I understand the "will not disclose respawn until shortly before it happens", but it would be nice if it were longer for players like me so I can schedule around it (when possible). But I see that as a nice compromise for the guilds that enjoy the rush of batphoning.

I feel good knowing that some things are in the works to try and help out with the current raiding issues.
Though it may take some amount of time to see how they work out, and to tweak them, gotta start somewhere. Excited to see how this all plays out [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] | ||

This sounds great except that patch day resets will only happen afternoon and evening. There are plenty of people who only get to really play in the mornings, and these people will therefore never get to experience a patch day reset.
Your already cutting down variance, and giving patch day resets, please just let the patch day reset have chances of spawning into the morning or even get rid of the range of times completely. Your giving a lot to cater to everyone as it is. Having patch day resets that have a chance of happening in the morning and not just afternoon and evening would not hurt anyone. Please consider it | ||

Firstly, the repops on Live would reset the timers, so I believe they should do so here. Otherwise it seems like this just leads to twice as many mobs spawning which isn't quite classic (there should be more than normal, sure, but not twice a week). Secondly, I think the variance should always be +/-12 hours. The reasoning is this: a 24 hour window makes any time that the mob could spawn equiprobable, so that players from all time zones can benefit. Any window that is some other multiple of 24 hours long just requires a bigger time investment, while making the mobs no more accessible to euros/aussies/etc. Thirdly, the simultaneous repops should be announced some time in advance, as all patches on Live were. How long in advance, I don't know. Any more than an hour seems like a bit much. Fourthly I think there should be a chance (albeit very small) of simultaneous repops happening in the mornings, perhaps on weekends when more people can be online, because of the arguments mentioned by the poster before me. (edit) this is the least important though since varianced spawns can still happen at those times. Apart from that I think these changes sound great, thanks Rogean/Nilbog

Besides the issue of possibly flooding the server with too many high end items, this is a nice compromise imho.
