Minibosses!

As you can guess, I'm ranting again, this time about the mini.

I've had to mgv twice in the last week because of a glitch with he mini or plain bad luck. On desertcliffs it never actually spawned and the wave stuck and on Dome of doom terra was unlucky enough to be the only one left and not even get hitsounds from hitting it. I wonder if this could be fixed??

Of course with the monster level all im saying is make the mini exemt to some extent from the level adjustment factor.

Yeah not sure what you mean either by MGV. Anyway, I take it Terra (as good a player as she is)couldn't kill the mini boss on her own so you lost the map? What does this tell you? To me it says TEAMWORK is the key. Keep your low level players alive or tell them to hide and then players like Terra will have a fighting chance! It's not really rocket science but still people just don't get it! To rightfully quote Acy, to win a map ia a privilege, not a right.

Quite true, low lvls should be a little more careful and try to work together a bit more. BTW guys - Mid Game Vote.

p.s - jon dont worry so much about the mid game voting when u encounter glitches like these with the miniboss im pretty sure u wont be banned [ppl seem to get away with it quite freely anyway] if theres a problem and u need to move on, just make sure all players are agreed on the decision and ur ok. [im probably not but, any admin pls correct me if im wrong on that.]

srry about the mgv thing, lots of MMAs and the peeps that come on my team know lots of shoretened snippets :P

@terra:
yeah I know its okay but I was playing leroy at the time and I had loas of good magic weps and it is annoying when ur on a roll and you get splatted. I have only seen us get through a whole game twice on desertcliffs. it seems to be just that the mini doesn't spawn.

We may have found the problem, I thought we were 1 team, US against the monsters.

Twice outta how many?

& at the times it didn't spawn, how many players were there? Were any of them out there fighting or camping at base?

Was anyone tending the miniboss when it was alive?

DAMN TYPOS!! time*

@Boss, it was between 5 and 12 but the wave stuck at the end, and afaik the times I've played it is 4. There was one or two fighting because I remember pwning the titans with a vorpal ltg.

Other info: when the monsters were dead we could still hear the *plip* *plip* sound on the radar which says there were monsters nearby, after Nom deleted his big flies.

I guess I'll keep a close eye on that map.

I'll spec it several times next time I see it. Thanks for the heads up.

no probs, happy to help! you might not catch the mini glitching because it seems random but ah well.
