in my eyes its a great way for people who are underleveled and doing a boss they have no business doing to get drops they shouldnt have.


with target lock a group of lvl 130s could take aggragoth, they have no place killing him but will be able to

target lock should not come imo, but if it does, it MUST have a timer

the timer would have to reflect the difficulty of course

example, it takes us 10-15 minutes to kill aggy, so the lock timer should be 25 minutes if another clan were to take

I think y'all are misunderstanding the meaning of the target lock.

FIRST group to engage with a boss will recieve the target lock. This means that they will get the drop when the boss dies, UNLESS they all die and go out of aggro range (like the boss would reset if no one else was there).

This target lock is simply for the drop, it does not mean that anyone out of group can not attack the boss, it simply means that the first group to attack will recieve the lock making them get the kill. Anyone can attack the boss.

This could be a very good way to power level toons (maybe a bit too good), so they may have to think about that. IMO it means that the tanks and Druids get more rewarded for bossing (as they should). I look forward to it.

Oh, I guess i did misunderstand...

true, didnt think of that, still there needs to be a way from preventing a group that has no right to a boss that is 10-20 levels over them from getting kill, perhaps lock could only work if the boss/mob was within 5 levels over you or lower

There are going to be a lot more rangers now, I better go level mine so I can get that lock and wait for my group to arrive . First hit gets it so it's not going to matter how many other people/groups are there right? I believe this is going to up the level of enjoyment for the griefers too, they are going to love just getting that lock and frustrating everyone else.

Huge mistake in my opinion, I hope I'm wrong.

How do you know admins meaning of target lock ?

I am hoping if it is implemented , it is the first group to do 25% damage to mob gets credit for kill , not first to engage, or locking the mob from all groups (Aggy would be a bit tougher) but how do any of us know ? Thank god it will go through beta but I hope they set proper conditions in beta to truly test it.
