how many months has lixie been on the server? and how many times has she been killed? it seems noone will wear npc boss armor crafted by homins until:
A. devs retool to match current server population
B.kara and kami join forces and share the loot
plan A requires work and waiting
plan b requires a trusting community
i think the latter is quite obtainable

With the current state of things i'd say not a chance in hell both factions would work on this together, thats my personal view other may feel differently...
I dont think we are missing out that much on anything it would be nice to get sets made, but i'd rather it take years and feel something impressive has been done that rather than the quick cure of using sheer force, what happened to the challange of ryzom, the undoable

Plan A: I don't see happening because the other 2 servers are killing Lixie as is.
Plan B: I know it could be done this way but getting everyone to play nice and deciding who gets what and when will be the hard part.
I'm willing to try Plan B.

Aye, Plan B as well for me, tho at the moment is pretty hard to get ppl to do anything lol...
Sent a few message a week ago to friends in about 6 differents "big guilds" and they were like maxi 4 ppl on in their guild....
I wanted to try to have a few team for the exact same thing (wasnt lixie but same idea...)
Now, between the
-"sorry noone in guild atm"
and the
-"could do but who get the loot?"
it seems pretty hard to get anything done
I even proposed the destroy the loot so we would just go for fun: no faction, no race, just good fun: like the germans did in EF in kitin nest...
Another possibility for the loot:
I presume their are still some guilds and crafters who, even tho factionned, would accept to craft for all players (need to ask Tara to confirm, not sure).
And nowadays for uber gears, applicants usually get their own mats...
Let find a crafter who could announce publically as well as his guild that he would craft on request for any players bringing mats: let then kill all those bosses a few times and get some set made

The other shards are supposed to have a higher population (ie, making it easier) though, no?
I really do think the effort to reward ratio isn't good at all.

About 2 weeks after OP wars came in the community left for me, well at least split into.
For me there is too much bad tension between the kami and karavan to hunt together but i am only one kami and other may feel differently.
I'd like to acheive killing lixie sure, but i think just getting 100 people to do it takes all possible fun away, its like getting 18 people to kill a lvl 70 boss.

Hmm you people do realise that it took only 22 homins to kill Lixie on Aniro on one occasion? All it takes is two or three guilds full attendance, teamspeak and lots of cooperation ( not the mindless chaos that lixie hunt usually is ).
If devs are to weaken her even more, then it would take only about ... what, 15 masters to kill her after that? That is way too easy in my opinion.
As for factional hunt, that thing is bloody nonsence. As some have stated, why the heck should 100+ people waste over an hour of spamming heals/nukes ( as that is definitely not my definiton of entertainment ) to win reward for a single homin?
It is not fun and it is not worth it.
And luckily it is not needed to do it that way to kill her as Aniro showed us... *shrug*

I'm with the big blue on this one.
yes I'd like it if bridges were mended a bit but I think this is about the last way to go about it.
