And these are just the thing that happen, when the content is used as intended. Then of course there are "clever" people deliberating using being lowbie to get kills and xp and generate murder points.
Well, to each their own...
Sad thing is, that ALL this was predicted before bosses were even made or tested at the anniversary in the old forums discussions about bosses. Then it happened as predicted at the anniversary. Then it got ...not changed at all.
Sure, content is working as intended if one (ONE!!!!) person can ruin it for 48 others, isn't it?
One solution will be a revamped open world consequence system. The other shortterm one can be to change how bosses work and act in between pve or pvp servers (e.g. offer a pvp xp boost around them, disable murder system around them, offer different loot, change how the quest is updated, disable hide around them, make them weaker or increase loot etc. etc.). But please NO pvp rewards for killing the boss like Bori!

I have 300 murder points lol
For someone that used to role as an aquilonian soldier defending poor people...how ironic.
Something need to be done. /signed.

It is clear that the one designing the world boss event did not know how the open world pvp system works. Murder points are there to make sure lvl 80s do not go to lowbie zones and start killing defenceless people. The free kill buff are there to make sure lowbies do not go to lvl 80 zones and ruin the pvp for those that belong there.
The way this is designed means that you can not make content for lvl 80s in other zones than the ones dedicated to lvl 80s. The current ruleset does not allow it. Therefore all further bosses need to be redesigned to spawn in Kesshata or Commons district. I do not care how cool a poem you made. It is those zones that are made for us to fight in and it is there the bosses need to be.
It doesn't suck it has created some awesome open world pvp action in Atzel's Approach and Conall's Valley (in Noble District it sucked only because of the proximity with guards).
Yesterday I had some of the best times on AoC thanks to that, non stop open world pvp till about 5am CET.
Murder points are a real issue though...
