Default Beast Spawns

How about when you wake a beast via game actions you are auto tele'd to the beast to give an edge to the waker? this would be sweet imo

agreed.... beast wakers are usually contributing to the cause so some kind of reward would be nice....that way people just sitting there waiting to click /bb but not doing anything dont have an edge over people actually contributing to spawns, which is something i think we'd all like to see more of... always. then again doing actions refreshes screen and reduces chance of lag anyway, so i'm assuming there arent a whole lot of people hovering over their mouse just waiting for a beast with bated breath.

First, lots of people may not want to be auto tele'd if they are doing something they think is more important, or they've already got that beast.

Second, if you wake it you already have an edge, because you receive the first notification of it being spawned (you get it instantly, others get it when they do their first action after it being spawned). This time advantage may not be much, and for anyone actioning it's most likely less than a second, but that is more than enough to get you there before others.

Third, if you're not doing anything with your mouse hovering over /bb then you have almost no chance of killing beasts unless it's late in the month or everyone else on is really slow; using the same thinking as above, you're not actioning and so you receiving messages will rely on the auto updates which happen only every 5 seconds or so I think, during which time a beast can be spawned and killed before you even get told.

I don't think this is a good idea. I don't know why it just appears to be stuipid to me. Also if you spawn a beast from th Ash Collector you have like a second or 2 before it appears in chat giving you a somewhat advantage, and if your bezzing and are auto-tele'd to a beast that YOU woke up I see that it'd be more of an anoyance than a benefit

Actually it appears in chat instantly. People don't receive the latest chat updates until they action, or the server automatically updates them, as I said.
If you're spawning from the ash collector then seeing as you know the spawn is about to happen and prepare you should kill them 9/10 times as long as you don't have the beast, don't get random time out etc.
