World bosses are meant to be world pvp oriented - not something to be taken advantage of because of server issues and then complaining when the fight becomes fair. I personally don't care who kills Azuregos - but I do care that our realm was inaccessible to anyone logging in for a period of time. That takes priority over anything happening on the realm at the time. There could have been numerous ways to handle the situation that went down this morning in regards to Azuregos. The decision made by the GM team was one that completely interferes with the gameplay of players. Yes, for one, shutting down the server completely would have been a better option than what happened. The arguments were made to be "fair" to both factions and have a fair fight by the Alliance is an invalid argument. Is it "fair" to interrupt a mid battle and sabotage a potential kill of a world boss? Is it also "unfair" when BOTH factions could NOT login, but one faction had a better community that were online to kill the boss? And if you THINK it is unfair, how is that the fault of the said faction having a of players that were faster to help that were ALREADY online? How can you say it's unfair that Alliance cannot login to put up a fight, when Horde were not allowed to login either? The login crash was not faction based. The argument of the decision being made was because it would have been a "fair" fight is absurd. What should have happened after the mistake of despawning the boss, was to reset the spawn timer of Azuregos and have both factions scout again. That would've been the most fair decision after the fact of making it unfair (by despawning the boss in the first place). Yes you fucked up, but you don't even take responsibility. That is where the disappointment settles in and the trust is lost between players and the people running this server.

A GM even wrote BEFORE the fight, that it is unfair to encouter Azuregos right now. Imagine a new patch drops and AQ opens and one raid is logged out while another raid is already logged in and can raid (get server firsts). Would that be fair?

For one, AQ is an event that needs to be opened externally. A world boss spawn is an internal clock with the server. Therefore, you're not making an incorrect analogy. In your example, you're right it would be unfair. But in this example, having people that WERE ALREADY online waiting for a timer to spawn (an internal clock with the server) is NOT unfair. It is however, unlucky that you guys were not all online during that time. And if you're referring to Fulzamoth, he said "It is unreasonable to suggest that the game should be shutdown just to make it 'fair'" 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kdubs89 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2018 I just cannot understand why you wouldnt just let the boss go down. 1. You have said you wouldnt interfere in World Boss events. 2. Both factions had login issues. 3. Azuregos will respawn in a few days. Wouldnt letting the boss go down and sticking to your “we do not interfere” statement allow you to remain impartial? Wouldnt this also present a better image to the community? Yes, you would have allys complaining that it was unfair because they could not login. However, ally not being able to login is a server issue that is not the horde players fault. They put the time in and the work and should he rewarded. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flankstekarn 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2018 I mean, there are tons of ways this spawn could have been handled better. Several ways posted in the forum thread here. But the fact you choose the worst option out of all and then neither admitted your wrong doing or retraced on your action, show you care more about one side of these arguments than the other when we both have reasons or could have had reasons to feel cheated. Thats why me on horde side feel cheated and unjustly treated, cause u traded our happiness for the alliance side 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nodl 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2018 (edited) 8 hours ago, Rain said: " not something to be taken advantage of because of server issues and then complaining when the fight becomes fair." This is incredibly insulting. It was a fair situation, everyone who was logged in could join a group on either faction for the fight. The login server was down for everyone. Horde doesn't have a crack team of 40 who will set alarms for world bosses and horde doesn't have a ton of rank 14s, and we don't have GM's addressing the "fairness" of that situation do we? Because nothing about WoW is designed with fairness in mind until all of a sudden it is and a random gnome shows up. There has been rumors of GM/dev interference since very early and I can't think of a better way to sabotage the appearance of integrity on your team than with comments like this. Why was that gnome GM snooping us fight azuregos if he wasn't personally invested in the kill? Shouldn't he have been working on getting logins up not caring so hard about if we killed a boss? Nothing adds up about this at all. Edited April 20, 2018 by Nodl 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoeMc1989 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2018 It is in my opinion that the server may have several corruption issues, particularly with world bosses. In this event de-spawning a boss in the middle of a fight to exercise fairness is not the way to keep players happy. This affects alot of people on this server and discourages players to even consider world bosses and progression. It is in my understanding that this was a pure judgement call of one person. I would like to see a detailed report of the issues (login and Azuregos) and reasoning behind the de-spawn. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jochem 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2018 Even when you would leave out alliance favoritism, this was handled poorly in my opinion and the GM's should take responsibility and admit that mistakes were made. I understand it's not easy to make decisions sometimes in tense situations like that, but the least you can do is apologize. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why was that dev snooping us fight azuregos if he wasn't personally invested in the kill? Nothing adds up about this at all. It seems when faction balance comes to PVE balance of horde/ally (sham/pal), your team is "blizzlike". But when a ragtag horde coalition almost takes a worldboss with login servers down- a lead dev personally takes the call, trolls the horde group with a toon in azshara , waits until we are actually able to kill it then despawns it right in front of everone. Complete with system messages that it won't respawn until the hardcore guild can logon and get their 50th azuregos kill. Every single horde guild.. what's left of them.. saw this tonight. And you say we were taking advantage of server issues now complaining? We had this coming? ridiculous. + 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hioney 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2018 It's fair to think you need to disable the bosses or restart the server when issues arise. You could disable bosses proactively before any team engages them when server issues arise. If this is done just reset the spawn-cycle again to a shorter time or something. If you really want factions to fight for it/pvp, you will have to check for a consistent number or horde and alliance to be on place before you make it killable again. It's not fair to despawn a world boss when it's about to die because you think the other faction should have a "fair" go for it later. The boss kill would have ended up better killed WITH server issues than the later. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nobody here is asking for loot, in fact, ME who organises and scouts Azu for the Horde try to split the loot group between all guilds who participate. To our loss, we have maybe received 2/10 loots from Horde Azu kills. We understand we need help from other guilds to beat the effort and coordination from Indom and have yet to complain. This is more about wasted time, in-game resources and mental encouragement. Investing 3-4 Hours of your time just to lose by numbers is annoying, but add onto that the boss being despawned at 30% is just unmotivating and has left attending member to say why bother. With more and more geared people leaving the server every day we might as well save our time and give the kills to indominous. Now I hope the GM's enjoy their "fair" world bosses ..... 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Multiz 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2018 World bosses should not be available while the server has severe technical issues like last night with the login server being down. When that is said, it is indeed debateable to despawn a boss at 40% HP. This decision should have been made earlier by the GM team. IN EITHER WAY you guys had a fair chance to take down Azuregos after it was respawned and login server was back up. But as usual we won due to our coordination being at a higher level compared to yours. Keep spreading salt - it makes my day even better.

Psylence / Pithikidis 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2018 I just know that I didn't go to work coz we where killing the boss . Next time when the GMs will try and reset the boss while we are fighting , I will just quit playing on this server and start fresh to LH or K3 . It wasn't just one time that this kind of thinks happened ! Sorry to say that but its unfair if I'm killing the boss to reset him , not once , but not twice! Fix your server guys so there will be a fair fight and people will stop complaining or even worst quit playing on the server . If u want to the world bosses to be more like a pvp fight , u might want to fix your battle grounds 1st ! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
