good idea, but ithink soe willjust make nyax harder to killlike other high lvl mobs
more ham
higher resist
hit for more damage
or
spawn harder guards around him with the same timer.
poitimer, once you kill you can not enter again for some time.
change the macro feature to where you can not use it to afk camp. if someone don't need sleep or every have to left the computer andcan stay up 24/7 and camp. hey more power to them. however camping, killing while afk is just lame. why even play the game.
however what is the real problem with nyax and other poi
afk macro campers with jedi and uber sabers. we have oneinterpid that camps with analt.there must have been a few hundred posts on the interpid forum from people complain. funny that all those posts got deleted. they are finished with there template, no need to worry about dieing or xp. yes you can bring a bh, but most people just head there without knowing who is down there.

If a house with an access fee has a timer on it, why can't all of the caves?

Agreed. The corvettes are timed missions; why couldn't this be one as well?

timed and instanced and gated would be lovely and it would just have to be the last room that would be instanced.

makes sense to me. Along with checking your factional alliance, which all NPC's do, this idea for Nyax makes perfect sense. They see you coming and lock the doors.

This would not stop ATK power groups from running loot runs, but if the timer is set by when you enter the cave, someone else can be in there when you get booted, so they get a chance, and so on and so on. This could work to prevent those that use third party programs to log in and grab loot as well.

Let's face it this makes sense in a lot of ways. I recently came back to the game after not playing for some time and was totally amazed at the cost of things. But it really is just that the stuff is passed from one rich group to another. To balance the economy would be great (although is very unrealistic in most every society known to man).
But let's take this one step further (Socialistically), if we are to maintain what the rich powerful guys can do shouldn't we supply meds, heals and buffs from the government at a maintained price therefore not letting the prices on those things get out of hand as well? Obviously this can be altered by a inflation of some sort, but that way we are carrying through the thought you have that everyone should get a fair shake.
By the way, i'm not sure this is a good idea..just thought it should be part of the debate.

agree
and if once a player has been booted out of a cave, if they go back within a random time period they are warped to 0,0 on endor or dath and unable to call they're speeder.
Most other MMORPG games ban players for doing the afk "loot bot" thing as it gives them an unfair advantage over other players.it also impacts on other players game play and enjoyment of the game.
I dont care much about nyax's loot drops, I just want to kill him cause i'm on a mission to kill as many "high profile" characters as i can.
