We killed 5 different bosses and got a reasonable number of supreme mats from each (about 16 to 20 each boss), but more importantly we had a real blast doing it. We plan to do this on a semi-regular basis and eventually will use those mats to make some tasty kit for guild members.

The bosses were all 200+ in level, and working out the strategy to deal with each different one was half the fun. We all died multiple times but due to the diligence of the healers and the general teamwork we all finished up with little or no DP by the end of the evening.
It was fun because you're level 70. I have several things above 70 and a few things above 150. Try camping manda for 2 hours. Towards the end I was chaining/group was killing 2 boss mobs at a time because it was so friggen boring.

I don't mean to spoil your fun, I had a blast doing it for months. but it wears. So where is the point? I dunno.

We got some new bosses, and we got some replacements. Goaketh
in Imperial Dunes and Kipestakan in Fount have been replaced with nameless and lootless caprynis. If you know more point me to them and I'll add them to our website.

Yeah there are a lot of new bosses. Mostly named. A real pain they are. Hard to kill and easy to be killed.They jump out of nowhere because their almost exactly like them regular mobs. They give crap for exp compared to how hard they are to kill. Then you might get some mats or like the one I killed today you get nothing.

It seems like since the last patch a lot of the mobs have been doing strange things. Moving differently and in places where thay never were before for instance. and like someone else said there's a few named critters like goaketh that aren't even around anymore. it seems now in that particular case that theres is a "numbered" golden caprinyi that drops nothing when killed and actually goes down pretty fast for a so-called "boss". it seem like there's a lot of the "numbering" around when spotting mobs these days. is this being looked into?
