City of Um is designed to be a social hub, similar to Fort Forinthry. We don't want to instance social content.

I really don't see any problem with Necromancy random events. They are no difference than other random events in RSC/RS2. They are even less problems than Seren Spirits and such. Actually, a lot of veteran players said they missed such random events in RS3.

Anyway, if you don't like social skilling, and/or still have a problem, you can go to Legacy Only worlds. There are only like 10 players each.

or they could make other players not show on the ritual field. Not saying we cant chat but its hard to see things when 50 players are all swarming one spot.

They can't because of the antiquated game engine for 22 years in all their Runescape franchise games. Of course, they can't now, and why do they want to do that when they clearly want us to all engage in social content with some nostalgic random events old schoolers asked for?

Why are these rituals not instanced? even on low pop worlds it is a pain to spot spectral events when players are constantly running around the ritual site.

Support. It's a pain in the ass to be told a spirit has left the area when a) you can't see it because of all the players, and b) there's no notification that it arrived in the first place.

Then they should change it so that we CAN see them, and we DO get a notification. The solution is not to make the area single player.

It is beyond just not seeing spectral events. People are drawing glyphs and setting up candles and there are so many of them that I have to move the camera around.

Besides, I see virtually no chat messages - so how social is that?

While instancing is not necessarily the answer, something should be an answer.

With only one site, this single place is going to be super busy for quite some time, even after "the race to the first 200 million" is over is a week or three.

Different sites for use as players leveled would easily have made the lower level locations have less people within a few days.

And auto-instanced sites like the newer abyssal demons where after a few get in there, it starts a new instance would have worked - it would not have to be set to 4 or 5, it could be set to 20 or 30.

This will all settle down, but in the meantime, it is frustrating to try to click on something in the ritual site and not have what I want done be chosen.

It is too busy and it need not have been.

Find some kind of solution, please.
