Champion / elite boss #59

Open lpdumas opened 12 years ago

lpdumas commented 12 years ago

How should we handle this?

jsilvestre commented 12 years ago

Since this is really tight to Dynamic Events, I don't know if we should make a specific marker type or if we should let it in our heads for dynamic events.

Since (from my experience IG) the Dynamic Events of Champions / Elite Bosses comes really often, I think marker types could be enough.

lpdumas commented 12 years ago

I agree with you about Champions beeing linked to Dynamic events. But elites are not i think. what do you think?

jsilvestre commented 12 years ago

I don't know much about that. Maybe we could wait for someone to know or just check this at the release.

I think the world bosses should have their own markers and agree that everything else can be linked to the events. Have we figured out how to do the events in the infowindow? Are we thinking of adding tabs that say, Stage 1, Stage 2, Stage Etc.? Hmm, that assumes the person on the event knows what stage they are on though, which takes me back to making videos of all this stuff.

We haven't talked about dynamic events management yet but the subject is opened waiting for any suggestion: https://github.com/lpdumas/gw2cartographers/issues/56

Maybe we could add markers temporarily to spot those bosses without dealing with dynamic events for the moment.

CrankyOldMen commented 12 years ago

I don't think the world bosses are in game yet. Not all of them anyway. As for the bosses at the end of the events, you would not want to mark those for the simple reason that they only show up at the end of the event, so you do not want to send people to an area, expecting to see a boss (according to the map) to find no boss due to the event not being at that stage.

We could add in the description "This boss shows up at the end of event name" but I agree, it's not perfect. That's what I said "temporarily" !

We definitely need to look further into dynamic events management.
