Still till this day the bosses with random meteors falling especially Magnus and Lotus are too unpredictable with impossible mixtures of attack even with safe spots available.

    Yeah there's so many ways they can make the meteors less annoying. They could make it so they either all fall at the same speed, or the more damage they deal, the slower they fall. I know it's probably a ping issue that makes some drop instantly, but there has to be some way to make that not happen.

    Or at the very least the meteors could deal a percentage of your max hp, with the bigger ones having the biggest percentage. Because it being based on your max hp would still mean you die from them if you get hit while your hp is low.

    Or another option is to have Magnus have to actually cast the meteors, and not have them just fall constantly. Some period of safe time would help a lot, even if Magnus himself's damage were to be increased whenever meteors aren't falling.

    We are at the mercy of KMS on this one, nothing GMS can do. The JMS bosses also don't have meteors which is the only bosses that GMS has say over.

    They are reworking Darknell however and doing some work on Gloom, they might hit up Magnus and Lotus as well when they do the boss changes.
    It was only confirmed that Korea Nexon is doing work for Darknell and Gloom though...

    Not sure why people keep mentioning which region of Nexon would be in charge of things. I assume if anyone actually sends this feedback to anyone, it would at some point be sent to the correct region's department that handles feedback, if the department from this region that handles feedback cannot make that decision.

    Saying unfortunately it's up to KMS makes it sound like the feedback is dead in the water. When out of all the possible reasons for feedback not to be forwarded to someone else, the region that handles it likely isn't one of them.

    The only thing is if KMS gets something we typically have to wait 6 months before we get it too.
