Well looks like the clear-speed-no-brain fuckers are going to win this one, so sad.

At least make it rare so they can still screw the capture if they don't have one.

Would you prefer that possibly upto 100% didn't get what they want, because it was imposed on them? Cos if not, then this hardly constitutes a case against democracy. Just asking in general.
No. Part of this new mechanic makes the players slow down and not just blaze through and clean up later... please keep as is.

Ya please keep as is, so Summoners are penalized for playing the league, cuz logic.
Current mechanic is alright, sometimes frustrating. The rare nets to salvage a frustrating situation are actually a good compromise.

In this case 74.9% are not going to get what they want.
Beasts are animals, not currency.

"capturing" them while dead turns them into currency. The current 3 second window is more then enough, there is no reason to allow "capturing" dead beasts.
Keep it that you must net live beasts. But change the mechanic so that the net is applied in radius of clicked area and all beast of that radius - lets say 3, will be captured if defeated in time(if captureable). Than I would add gear in the game that can increase that radius. Beast Hunting gear.

If you actually look at ladder you may find there is quite a lot more variety than that.
I don't get why it sounds like you want everyone to play no-clear no-dps builds you like, it's diversity, exactly, if you force meta fun builds to suck people will quit, cause some people are here to play these builds


Interestingly enough I did look at the BHC ladder and disregarding the aura guardians which is really a minuscule percentage besides the ladder I saw necromancers, sunder, frost blades and some wanders. But that is really besides the point, I dont think people climbing the ladder can be expected to play anything other than speed clearing builds. Of course I just listed 3 builds that came to my mind but you should get my point. The builds really dont feel much different except for the skill you choose because the only concern for all builds is to go as fast as possible and kill stuff before they get an attack in.

Here's the thing : I don't want anyone to play builds they don't want to play but I want different builds to have some place in the game. Meta builds will not suck just because they can't catch every yellow beast they come across. They already do every damn thing better than a no-clear no-dps build as you like to call it. Conversely don't you think some people who can't or don't want to play the game this way where you can't even bother to throw a net at the mob you saw 2 screens away might also quit the game?
