One of two things needs to happen, because the redcaps are just absolutely swarmed.
Increase the buff duration to 1 hour instead of 10 minutes, because the spawn timer for the mushrooms are at least 1-2 minutes each, and when others are trying to get them or trolling by sitting there eating them for no reason.
Decrease the spawn timer for these, it’s kind of silly when people are fighting over spawns when the majority of spawns are personal nowadays anyway.
I whole-heartedly agree, the design is bad and incredibly frustrating. Why not make the mushrooms like click able quest items, instances for every player?
I tried doing the WQ by waking up at 2.30 am, but got busted at three mushrooms because of the competition… Seriously, get something done, currently it’s no fun at all.
