    Default A word from the devs on this?

    A new popular thing Ive seen is high levels getting into a low level halloween dungeon and just running past all the enemies straight to the boss spawn. I know what you're thinking "Oh but you have to kill a certain amount of players first". The other players join shortly after the high levels so they just kill all the monsters while the high level sneaks to the spawn and kills all the monsters in the spawn room and near it. What happens is that the newer, lower level unsuspecting player kills all the monsters while the higher level AFK leeches until the boss spawns and kills the boss without anyone else getting a drop. This is so rude it's not even funny. I'd understand it being ok if we could host our own games and boot people like this, but we cant. I also know someone got banned during the forgotten event for bringing a fragx or two to the spawn room and getting everyone spawn killed. Can a big warning be given to keep this from happening? Thanks in advance.

    I see. Do you think there is anything they'd do about this?

    Agree on this post seriousley why are lvl 40+ in any lvl 10 map? Again i see many high lvl players in my main charecter friends list who are rude and self serving in a low lvl map. If they want a lvl 10-15 make a twink simple.. Thanks for this post agree 100 percent

    Kill on the route to the boss room. You don't have to kill all. Get to boss room about 11-15 count and you'll get boss while you are inside the room (boss spawn count is 7). As in, it's ok to run to boss room while killing. You'll end up in the boss room as boss spawns. No one steals your kill then.

    That's not my problem. My problem is people joining and not killing anything. I dont understand why, as they could press a few skills while walking and kill enough for boss to spawn, but they dont. Then when me and 3 other low levels are 15 seconds behind them, we have to wait for the monsters to walk all the way back, then kill them and then continue clearing the map. By this point the guy who ran ahead has cleared the boss room and the boss will spawn sometime when we are killing monsters. They then proceed to kill the boss and get a drop only for themself.

    I find it fun pawning low lvl enimes in my mage disguise, give me break from big bad koal and red dragon. Don't see why other high lvls make it seem so hard to kill in one hit -.- guess lvl 10-19 enimes to tough for em

    Here's a small solution,
    Lets spread another rumor -
    MORE PEOPLES AT BOSS, BETTER LOOT.

    Not complaints just more of feedback. This Halloween was not exactly what we were use to seeing from sts. Which is a good thing but I mean look high level leeches are ruining gameplay experience and fairness for lower levels.

    Why do I feel like you might be a cause to some of them?..
    Because pretty much the same thing happened last year too.
    Tbh the only difference between last year and this year are new drops and a longer map

    it used to be worse, when a higher lvl would join a map, all enemies would rise to that high lvl, making it impossible for lower lvls to even stay alive.
    In the case of a high level doing that in your game, I suggest you follow him by health potting your life away, or just stay at the entrance. They will feel stupid at the boss when it doesnt spawn.

    Depending on how high of level you are above the game your joining, the drops rates for you are wayyyy lower. For instance I ran a 76 in a lvl 20-29 dungeon and didn't get a drop in 20 runs, but got a purple in first run in 70 dungeon.

    I've done this a few times (very boring I must say). However, I always kill everything on the way and I will wait for everyone at the boss spawn if they are lagging.
