Could you add a feature to evenly distribute boss kill rewards among team members to encourage cooperative gameplay?

 

Hello, it was added to the roadmap, I can't say anything about the timing.

Players on my server are still telling me that even after balancing the bosses, they are easy to kill or cheese. they can be killed with bows most the time. this needs fixed. they arent bosses to them.

The problem is that the boss just stands there doing nothing and doesn't attack.

Even if we set it to teleport, players focus on repeatedly luring it in and then moving away to trap it, and it's rare for multiple players to cooperate to defeat it, which is what many server administrators want.

If we could somehow prevent it from being trapped, and if it stopped becoming completely inactive, that alone would solve the problem.

We've tried adjusting it with grenades and skills, but so far it hasn't worked.

I think it's a problem with Npcspawn plugin. I have the same problem lately. they are sleep state to much, principaly when players die for the boss one time.

Hello, maybe one of you can show a video and send Boss data file from video for a better understanding of the situation and possible nuances?
Thanks

I'm using the default settings for the boss.
The player tries to lure the boss to the edge of its range or get close to it,
finding a point where it stops moving, and basically trapping it until it's immobile and unable to attack, then defeating it with simple attacks.
This tendency is especially strong with BOSS that only use melee attacks.
I'd like some good settings to avoid this.
For example, settings for Chase range and Sense range.
