Idea that is an easy addition and a MUST HAVE

[Owyn]

I really like this game, but there has been a lot nagging me about it. I finally figured out what it (or at least I) was missing.

Put in NAMED NPCs, that have a chance to spawn at appropriate POIs, that have a loot table that has some actual good stuff.

I found a cave in a bandit camp, went pretty deep. There were some scoundrels deep down, which was sad.

Then it hit me, these POIs were be worth it to explore if there were a chance for a named NPC to spawn, with loot that makes it worthwhile to find them and kill them.

You can have a named npc for every mob and class. Named Bandit bowman/healer/caster, named RIsars, etc etc.

Imagine there being a named mountain spider that would spawn in a random mountain spider camp, that drops something thats unique and valuable .

This would make it worth to always check spawns everywhere, just to see if a random named NPC/MOB had spawned.

There isn’t really any downside to something like this. We already kind of have it in terms of bandit leader and stuff but more wouldn’t hurt.

We've been saying this since Beta, they like their world plain and stale I guess... But yes having the thrill of possibly coming across a rare named spawn would get more people out into the world exploring. This would give hope to the small group or solo individual that they could stumble across something rare. This should also be done with rare gathering nodes that spawn randomly in different locations.

I remember playing Conan Exiles, and the mob camps had a chance to spawn named crafter thralls that were very good to have, and rare.

Made checking any camp you rode by just to see if anything good had spawned.

PLEASE DO SOMETHING LIKE THIS!

I think this is a great idea.
Although if Starvault is lazy they'll just rename the bosses

Another great idea would be if the named npcs dropped rare or unique loot such as trinkets or gear. Perhaps there would be loot that u could only get from the named npcs.

Just to make em a bit more interesting... Otherwise they're just another slightly more powerful NPC.
