What is your suggestion?: Put less value on nightmare bonus for weekday and weekend events. I am not suggesting to get rid of it, but treat it like gauntlet bonus, which which usually given in addition to Nex/raids bonuses, or as a 24/hr bonus. It does not have to be exactly this.

Is this in OSRS?: no

Has this suggestion been accepted already?: no

How would this benefit Alora?: My concern is as of now, I feel as if nm a waste for a bonus during the usual bonus time slots. Nex and Toa made the uniques from nm obsolete. I know a decent number of people agree with nm being dead content, so replacing solo nm bonus with raids/nex bonus or putting it in addition to another pvm bonus would make players overall more excited to check out the bonus lists for weekdays and weekends.

 

I understand a common concern with this change would be: less nightmare bonus--->more raids/nex bonus---->more of those items--->crashed exo/anything along those lines. I do not wish that to happen and honestly, I feel as if bonus amounts themselves do not contribute to more items being added in the game, but instead, the large increase in number of people doing the content results in more drop announcements. For instance, if you complete 5 TOA's during the bonus, with the bonus, you get 6 TOAs worth of "purples." Personally, I do not see an issue with this happening once or twice a week. Regardless, more people doing the content at the same time results in more interactions between players--->better experiences---->better community----->growth of server.

Support, would make sense considering nightmare items are also very niche and not viable to use almost anywhere considering there's better alternatives.

Support. Nightmare items have become pretty underpowered. IMO gauntlet items are way more useful so I think moving NM from a bonus slot to the monthly bonus schedule makes more sense and filling it with some other end game bonus

I support this idea. There have been times when I've logged in and there have been multiple bonuses active, one being nightmare, and I opt to do something else because I feel like the other bonuses take precedence over it.

Support moving nightbare bonus to the monthly bonus schedule, no support on adding multiple toa bonusses or nex bonusses a week.

What would you suggest replaces it, just curious? COX/TOB/Nex/TOA (might be missing one) all are double each week between weekday and weekend so something will have to get tripled up. Also is your thought behind no Nex or ToA is that a 2.5 hour bonus is going to flood the eco?
