I am genuinly glad to see someone say something good about that mob ( For once ) :D
I was the person whom wrote the code for him, and I can honestly say that I love his skillset, it provides a Unique fight as he may/maynot use certain skills, and it makes fighting him not as boring :p
( Also you forgot to mention that he talks in O - Chat too, getting that to work took foreeeever :p )

I did forget to mention that, lol. It is a nice touch. Like I said, I like him, he's interesting. Other Mythic Mobs, not so much.

The idea for them to drop Township stuff kind of annoys me, given that I don't have a town, and don't intend to join one. Perhaps a chance to drop low-level enchanted items? I wouldn't mind finding a Punch Bow for killing a few of them. That would probably disappoint enchanters though =/ In the end, they should be worth the time and effort it takes to fight them, hopefully in some way other than just mildly better exp.

I have heard that they intend to make them drop something cool enough to be worth fighting them, so look out for that :p

No punch bows please, ranger is already strong enough without using any skills or enchants :( 6 hit any caster pretty much

Was simply the first enchant that came to mind, lol. My simply point is the current exp they give isn't worth the pain they are. I know they're working on good loot, but until that happens they're just gonna hang out in my pool while I go fight creepers =P

Or maybe having dungeons where you can find the Kings and give the Kings good abilities. Maybe upon defeat they also have chances at dropping rare weapons as well as massive exp. then let minions spawn anywhere

That's basically what the Adventure Map is going to be as far as I can tell, I've noticed even I'm deviating to that a lot, lol. I'd be fine with that if there was actually a difference between Kings and Minions aside from 500hp. Although simple temples, shrines, or something would probably work, as I mentioned at one point in my ramblings. I know I've been been giving a lot of crap about these Mythic Mobs, but if they were simply taken out until they're balanced, tested, and working well, it would be a lot less flustering =/

This should and will be changed ( At least as far as any mobs I create :p ) so that there isn't such a similarity.

And don't worry, so far your complaints have been valid, so don't worry about it :p
Testing/creation wise, it was only me and Phoenix Testing and creating the mobs over a week long period. Next time I'll try to get BalanceTeam on board and have them test it, and I promise to triple check the Despawn option this time and make sure we get lootables before hand :3

Wait. Your making the mobs?
Huh, learn something new.

I helped Program/Test all of the current ( And some we havne't implemented *wink* ) mobs, the only one I am solely responsible for is Undead Hero who I programed myself :3 , the others where based on code that Phoenix wrote :p
I see. Still, did not know that.

would it be too hard to just add the gladiator weapons to their drop tables until actual drops are made?
It would devalue the medal currency. Though I think its time I spend a few hours reworking the drops even if they are temporary.
