From Mabinogi World Wiki

Disputed finishing/rewards

It appears that most hits rewards the finish and gold, even from regular field bosses, not just giant field bosses. Experience is only shared with the party members as per normal.
The reward system appears to reward based on number of hits, crits or damage as a *percentage of total*, as it's not completely random. You might call it the "poor, good, and rare" drops. Simply hitting the field boss once is enough to generate a reward unless there are a huge number of players. I theorize the game has certain tiers of rewards, and hands them out based on hits, damage and crits. The reason I say this, is that fighting with damage gear (that obviously everyone else has) rarely nets a good item, while fighting with crit gear usually does, or maybe it's entirely based on hits to prevent people from hitting once and then running away.KisaiTenshi 09:05, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
I'm thinking damage or crits. Having just fought several field bosses I can vouch that the ones I critted on dropped more or better things than those I didn't. i.e. Goblin bandits dropped 1.5k gold and the fomor scrolls (criting at least 4 times on each goblin) Where as sheep wolves I critted once on one (Dropped an hp 10 potion) and twice on another (Dropped 250 ish gold). Those with out crits (sheep wolves, mini bear) Dropped nothing. Ket 13:35, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

I got a feeling that the desert dragon is notified by Alexina, does anyone know? --Kaillera 17:48, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

A few days ago I think Kusina told me about the Giant Lion, but now I'm getting nothing. Koil 18:11, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
Thank you, this will help people cut down on talking rumors to NPC that doesn't say anything. --Kaillera 18:17, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
I'm fine to keeping working extensively on this, but do you also want the npc's in Uladh that talk about feild bosses, such as the Giant White Wolf? Koil 18:22, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
I think most of the Uladh's field bosses are pretty useless, and they can also be solo'd real quick anyways. --Kaillera 18:27, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
No, I meant do you want me to figure out which npc's will alert you about them showing up. Just like the one's in Iria. Koil 18:28, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
Feel free to add them to the list. I am just more focused on the larger field bosses. --Kaillera 18:31, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
Giant Lion info is from Waboka. Ifrit is from every NPC in Filia but Atrata (tested this just now) --Berkt 18:59, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
I put down Giant Bear too, because I'm sure there's people who hunt it for the Hetero Kite manual.--Qaccy 21:32, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
I just added Black Wizard, most people are interested in the Wizard enchant too. +50 MP. --Kaillera 01:39, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
I found that Wanst was the NPC for the Yeti notice. Added it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Quiversee (talkcontribs) . Please always sign your comments with the Signature.png button or by typing ~~~~!

Cycle period

It's a set interval which are different on all channels :\ --Kaillera 15:55, 4 August 2009 (UTC)


Defeated Field Bosses

If you defeat a field boss, does it come back again? --Caellian 21:09, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

After a (set?) amount of time, yes. If they didn't, we'd have no field bosses. =P --Aramet (Talk) 21:20, 25 September 2009 (UTC)


Spawn Patterns

There's a pattern to the spawning of each Giant Field Boss, I think it's something along the lines of "On Tuesday this boss will spawn on this channel at this time". I'm not sure how it works exactly, because I don't camp them, but I know people who ALWAYS make it to the Giant Bosses. Maybe we should try making a list of the spawn times per channel per server? --Simpet 01:54, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

Someone on the japan servers made something called a cukocuko timer. Tells what times Iria field bosses spawn. I've heard rumors that some guild leader on Tarlach server got a hold of the base code and translated it, but he refuses to admit/share this alleged timer.Ket 15:43, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

Mistranslation

Uladh (Troll, Ogre, Giant White Spider, Giant Bear, Goblin Bandit, Black Raccoon, Giant Black Wolf, Black Warrior, and Black Wizard)
Reading this as I was in Tir for a Giant White wolf spawn made me wonder if giant white spider is supposed to be giant white wolf?

I mean:
거대한 흰 늑대 Giant white wolf
거대한 흰 거미 Giant white spider

I've seen worse mistranslations.

And searching the Japanese wiki for 巨大な白い蜘蛛(Giant white spider) results in: 巨大な白い蜘蛛 を含むページは見つかりませんでした。(Page that contains giant white spider was not found.) Ket 04:51, 9 June 2010 (UTC)

The effects of Generation 13 on field bosses

As a warning to all would-be hunters, field bosses have been buffed considerably in order to balance the new rewards obtained from defeating them (oblivion enchant, adonis, etc). All of the informaton on field bosses is now out of date.

Boss timer

Works with the help of MabiMessage. Functions in a similar fashion to the Japanese boss timer. Ie taking reports from clients in the area and transmitting back to server.
