Below I have tried to list a lot of problems that I personally encountered when I had a server with 30 thousand unique players, which this plugin will help you deal with.
You can also spawn bosses by placing eggs in a dispenser or by executing "/boss spawn". You can even make a command block that executes that command to spawn them, or use our developer API to create your own code.

- Do you find the default Minecraft mobs boring and would like to change them?
- Are you tired of killing the same mobs over and over again?
- Do you have the "Monster Arena" plugin on your server and would like to improve it significantly?
- Have you ever thought that a monster might drop a special key to unlock some part of your server?
- Do players leave your survival server after a while because they have "seen everything"?
- Or in general, if you feel like you're losing players on your server, this plugin can help you get them back.
- Be mindful of how you build your gameplay and your worlds. Sometimes less is more.
- Install a mini-game plugin that will keep players engaged while they are not playing.
- Consider a multi-world plugin like Multiverse-Core which will allow you to have multiple worlds.
- Install a dynamic map like DynMap to encourage players to track themselves in worlds.
- Read the Spigot changelog frequently, try to understand the changes and update Spigot accordingly (at least every other day on new versions of Minecraft, otherwise once a week is enough).
