Timer for despawning adds

Give the adds a timer after which time they despawn if they wasnt killed by then, that way lower dps groups will find it easier to do dungeons / trials while high dps wont notice a difference.

    Players would just ignore the adds. If they can survive through them but cannot manage to kill them why bother with them. That seems like poor design.

    isnt that exactly what good groups are doing anyway? not really focusing them since they will die anyway on the side of bosses.

    its part of the challenge of the bosses. Tank can chain in ranged adds. For the rest more AoE helps a lot.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    On the contrary, they should make it so that adds do not despawn if the boss they are linked to dies.

    Either way is very bad.

    If adds despawn on the death of boss they become pointless to the fight.
    If adds despawn after a time limit then they become pointless to the fight.

    If something is part of a fight it needs to be part of the fight. The whole encounter gets defeated or none of it.

    Lower DPS isn't a real issue for most fights. All lower DPS does is force you to actually gear and face mechanics properly. It's weird but the less DPS you have the technically better player you have to be.

    This idea makes zero sense.
