You guys just need to be honest and stop trying to pretend that Alakkir was meant to be played this way. It never was. There’s a chicken boss for a reason and it’s not meant to be skipped.

“Oh noes im forced to play for 5 minutes”
I wonder if it was originally released like this, would they still choose to do the una at all. We were getting extra rewards at no extra cost (if you really wanna count the DREADFUL Bifrost oh nooo).
Not like sailing there takes a minute

Of course they would. Because the most important thing to them are the leapstones. In fact, I would say that the original una daily was an oversight by the devs. It should have always included the king, and they have only corrected it today.

But now it does negatively affect people doing 6 characters with that Una’s task is it not?
While I understand new players having to be left to solo that boss, which is bad, the overall changes also do not help with current player time. 1 Greater Honor Leap stone may not be much, but it is a lot if you do have multiple alts.
I have proposed to the OP to stack the island Epona into two days to solve his dilemma, but still, the least they can do is making it so that the boss at least die faster or making this island spawn every 30 minutes - 1 hour.
Never really did it more than once a day anyways and still don’t have the island token.
It’s not that great for alts unless you somehow have nothing else to do. On my 7 characters I’d rather just spam 4 Leapstone x3 or the Pirate one x5 and move on with the dump truck of other chores.
Haven’t played past few days cuz it’s (chores x number of alts) and gets worse and worse.

Sure. But if you are choosing to play 6 characters, the effect is exponentially reduced. If you have 6 characters right now earning GHL, the investment in the characters themselves weighs more than an una that you can choose to do.
cause if you don’t have to work for your una dailies they can’t sell those completion tickets
…Which is why they provide a daily for it. If there was a point to going back to the island, they wouldn’t need the daily.
Giving players incentives to revisit old content so new players don’t live in a ghost town is like modern MMO design 101.

That’s the thing - if people want to maximize what they have, 1 greater leap across 6 is essentially saving them 6 x 125g = 725g a day.
Right now it is not worth the time for sure, and it also locked behind the timer of the island itself. I don’t really mind if they changed it to kill the boss, but make it appear like 1 hour or every 30 minutes would make more sense.
I would agree with this. I think the Alakkir spawn times could be adjusted to have it spawn more frequently each day.
Sure, thats a change I can stand behind. But I’m only writing here because 1) OP is deluded and 2) he is being over the top in generalizing a population and melodramatic response instead of actual insight.
Edit. Just because I agree that now I won’t be as fast or “optimized,” doesn’t mean I wont call out the BS thats written in and as a defense for the post. Which seemingly he can’t wrap his head around.

I agree he is being over the top with his arguments and doesn’t really provide any insights to his side of things or solutions that would work for both sides.

thats interesting. I thought I provided the solution of a boss that scaled its health based on the amount of players which you yourself agreed with. lmfao
I did agree to the scaling of boss health, but it also introduce a 2nd problem where a single person is still going to be left on the island to solo the boss by him/herself. I hope that make sense.
As for my comment of you providing no compromise into the other side - it is true as I just explained above.
He just selectively reads, its okay. Theres no motivation to have a discussion with someone that sees everything black and white.
This…
was in response to this…
He’s telling me to do the other things. Well…my point is I was doing the other things which is why I didn’t have time to do the chicken boss already…and it was efficient not having to do it across multiple characters and the fact that he suggested such a thing when my whole argument is based around that idea in the first place made me question his intelligence.

Is in response to this comment.
So…yea. I just reflected his insult back to him.
So I am stating that once people stop doing the daily due to its suckiness now, and more people get the island soul, for those that didnt, they won’t have as many options for the boss anyways, whereas with the people doing the daily, there were people who would stick around once they did it on their third character (usually you could get 3 characters done at once) to help kill the boss. Not seeing what the problem is with that.
it appears you had a ton of motivation with the amount of replies you have in this thread. isnt it ironic
ooooh, i like that idea
