    such as this halloween event-

    Some of us cannot do JQ's - So why have 3 in this event?

    why not a quest or a quiz or something?

    Event bosses- Gauntlet is not worth entering when you can't hit what you can't see.
    And in order to even hit anything, you must be able to MOVE. The lag is constantly horrendous
    at Boss Slime, Boss Cake,Boss Snowman, and these 5 bosses in gauntlet.

    Only way to make these bosses fair is to let max people of 25 in each map. Disable pets and chairs in these Boss events.

    I know this server is bad with GFX, but allowing a mob of people onto a map is making it intolerable.
    Especially when you are adding pets and people sitting on their chairs fighting.


    The events gave gotten worse due to the lag. I know the server isn't capable of handling graphics (ex: Zakum), but there has to be a way
    to fix this so we want to do the events.

    Otherwise, back to grinding during events.

    The rewards: Ok so spending half an hr + at a boss event to get a reward of something useless,isn't really incentive to kill the boss.
    Just now at gauntlet I got 18 red slimys. Trying my best to SEE the bosses and actually move to be able to hit them, is not a fun thing to do.
    Esp when you are rewarded with something that drops in haunted house.


    Cheers,
    RC

    Actually, the initial race is around 1 minute, waiting room 3~4 minutes, the boss portion takes around 5 minutes. The entirety of the gauntlet takes 10 minutes on average. You just pulled "half an hour+" out of your ass.

    Turning in 1 pumpkin isn't a big enough sample size for you to settle that the rewards are useless just as how turning in 1 gachapon ticket and getting 10 melting cheeses is nowhere enough to settle that gachapon gives useless items.

    Really? Is that how you speak to people? I wasn't REFERRING to the gauntlet being 1/2 an hour.
    There are other BOSS events.


    Also, this is a feedback forum. I can have an opinion as well as the next person. You can choose not to read it.

    Come on now, I never wrote anything regarding whether or not you're allowed to have an opinion.

    Yes, you are correct that this is a Feedback forum and you can have an opinion; but, just as you can have an opinion, we can also pick it apart if we do not agree with it. And yes, this is a forum. I honestly hope that you weren't expecting an echo chamber where only people that agree with your thoughts will post in this thread, and people who disagree with you will choose not to read your post.

    Alright, point taken. You never directly referred that the gauntlet was 1/2 hour+. However I do think it is fair that we will naturally assume that you were referring to the Halloween Gauntlet Event when your comment about a useless Red Slimys reward from Halloween Gauntlet Event directly followed after your 1/2 hour+ boss event comment.

    However, I do agree that boss events should not take more than 1/2 hour+. Perhaps you can direct us to some specific events in Royals where event bosses took 1/2 hour+ with useless rewards?

    25 Max people will hurt the ones trying to get the thing. Even in the current rooms we have 5 ish afks, if one person slacks during a 25 people boss run everyone will feel the absence.
    Not sure if it's related but before the medal era huge boss fights worked better.
    Are medals causing lag? Is it possible to disable them?

    Off-ing the megaphones can help to reduce the lag if you are facing such issues in the Gauntlet event

    ~setting megaphones disableall
    ~setting megaphones disablegachapon
    ~setting megaphones enableall

    So far, I have participated in the event a few times and didn't crash/disconnect
    Although I can't see the boss clearly, I just follow the damage line and try to hit as much as possible
    Note: Would be better if able to display the boss sprite in front of other players

    I think that the following things should be disabled in the map:
    1. Pets
    2. Nx weapons (they can cover them like the other equips in the costume)
    3. Capes if they aren't already (same solution as no.2)
    4. A slightly smaller player cap in each map (and an hp nerf to the boss with according to the change in players).
    I'm not sure there's a way to disable chairs without stunning the player or having the player always in the hit state.
    Maybe increase the acc of all the bosses so that players won't be able to sit and just get missed all day.

    Also, in the map before the gauntlet, just disable skills cause its the main place players start to experience lag.

    And @RoyalCupcake, i had crashes as well, but ever since i started GFXing in the two lobbies of gauntlet i haven't seen my client crashing, so give it a go
