    People seem to want pink been to come to this server, but everyone seems to forget that it'd be impossible for this server to kill it.

    GMS was only able to beat it once the potential system was released. No one came close until then due to he obscene time limit.

    We all know potential will never come to this server. Knowing that, hopes to one day defeat pink bean are essentially a pipe dream.

    I'm almost 100% sure PB was killed before potential was released. Distinctly remember HefferHeffer getting banned because he killed Pink Bean.

    They'd have to nerf it in some way

    Its the best of both worlds, for people who want the pinkbean experience without the power creep. Making the timer a bit longer just enough for a full squad of top players able to kill it in a perfectly executed run (or nerfing hp % of each part so that it takes 1h to kill) wouldn't take away too much of the nostalgia.

    Adding a new endgame boss that is and forever will be unbeatable is obviously pointless.

    Then we'll never be able to kill it so take your pick

    The Windia crew that beat it didn't have all perfect weapons though, so I think it we might be able to kill it here w/o potential. Which, at that point, wasn't crazy op. Having an extended timer or nerfing HP a tad should definitely make us able to kill it.

    Not really that impossible, though if wheel of fortune is added, it will make it more possible.

    The joy of Pink Bean would be watching the pros get run over. For me, anyway.

    The issue with Pink Bean, off memory, was that first off, none of the parties understood the mechanics of fighting it quite yet (the areas they could stand in safely without triggering certain attacks, the most noteworthy one being the final stage's Reverse Genesis attack that does a boatload of damage to anyone that Pink Bean is facing) so there were a lot of deaths and failed runs for that reason. After Pink Bean's mechanics became known, it was just a matter of collecting enough raw DPS to actually finish the boss within the time limit.

    The first point will absolutely slow us down too, since even for more known bosses like Horntail, we've historically had issues and an adjustment period after implementation and every change thereafter, but as for the second point, that may not be a problem. It all depends - Pink Bean will likely require more coordination of time and place than we've ever really seen before. Off memory, you have one hour to deal about 7.5b damage, which is about that's 125m damage per minute. For reference, a Horntail run with that average damage per minute, not considering any multi-targetting hits, would take just under 21 minutes, including the preheads. Is it possible? Absolutely. Might take a two or three party run to do it, though.

    tl;dr: It might seem impossible, but I doubt it actually is.

    I remember MSEA also cleared it before Pot arrive as well.
    A strong coordination team though if I remember correctly + hp wash wasn't like full blown to close perfect compare to RMaple
