Problem:
Currently after gaining Ally faction with dragon/Giant you need to turn in the opposites leaders head. The Problem of course is the number of toons on the server needing these heads. Main characters that worked thier way throw the tiers general were lucky enough to be able to down each of the leaders a few times to gain the head and keep until they aquired Ally.
The Problem however comes from Alts, and Mains of higher tiered guilds. For months now I have been trying to keep track of them to nail, to gain the final part of the quest. However each of these NPCs (Empress and King) are basicly Perma down. Thiers a VERY short window of them being up before taken down. Now this wouldn't be such a problem if it was just guilds of approperate tier taking them down.
From my personal experience seeing and talking with other Scouts I meet in NDHK/SE, Empress and King are being taken down more often by Upper Tier guilds then on tier guilds, to use on alts and new characters of the guild.
This is thier right, dont get me wrong... but is this bottleneck really suppose to be this bad? It seems lower tier guilds are beng robbed of these raid targets, and in the case of NDHK more then just the empress (as thiers some raid targets in the way of empress they get killed along the way).
Solution:
Once the * version of the NPC spawns, have the ability to hail them to engage.
*you insult thier mother, kids, thier favorite TV show etc*
Much like Meilech the reanimated, and Parclean the devour the Empress/King would despawn and respawn a *version thats much nastyer then thier normal incarnation. These respawned NPC would only drop thier head, nothing else.
Timer for this respawn ability could be limited to once in 24 hours +/- 12 hours window.
This allows the quest to not be so much of a bottleneck, and allows higher tier guilds a way of aquireing the head without stomping a low tier target for it.
Prehaps even adding a mini-quest involveing the gathering of a few things first for a hand in that enrages the NPC. (in case of empress... prehaps gathering some bones of her Commrades and givin them to her. *killng Enraged Wurms to get... Wurm bones x4 to give to her or something).
