Okay this or something similiar may have been suggested already, but still I see no clue, why this shouldn't be implemented.
Slashers are dropped so rarely from sg and well making it more common wouldn't really be the right choice, increasing the dux drop rate was, definitly.
The problem is that dux are only spawning during xmas giving players almost better chances for IS than slasher..
What I would suggest is a golden blob that spawns very very very rarely in a normal blob spawn spot and which has the same drops and chances as the deluxe present. What do you think? :p
Does it have same HP and damage as a normal blob? Sounds cool to me.

Why not, outa curiosity?
Oh no, please not... people would never ever come back to temple to train... and it will just be a pain to train...
I agree with foG. There are plenty of things that spawn in the forest already.
I wouldn't be opposed to a new rare temple spawn, seeing as there are only two temple monsters. (I'm not counting the cactii and SG possible spawns to the left of the temple as the temple.)

I was only searching for a way to give players a chance to actually obtain slashers from something else than the hardest and biggest monster in game, the golden blob could also spawn at temple, that wouldn't matter (make it a golden skele instead? ... :p)

Maybe not a 'golden' skele... But, how about an 'older' skele. More grey than yellow. Maybe a grey beard as well. Uses a cane (could also be his attack, just a jab with his cane). More hunched over than a regular skele. Slower moving.
Extremely low hp, comparable to an RD or less.
Grandfather skele who is about to die of old age (eventhough he's technically already dead, being a skeleton and all, but still) and carries his rare possessions that may drop when you kill him. *shrug*

You my friend define creativity!
How about a re-sprited BBB so its gold and it can spawn Left of temple (giving that area more of a use), Main temple, right of temple and desert. It could have a higer agi then BBB with more health.
I agree with the golden blob idea, but I don't think it should drop the same stuff as a SG. I think it should drop things like the flame gauntlet and the gravity crown etc... It'd give a reason to go back to that area but not to leave the desert altogether. And I do like the idea of an elder skeleton or whatever dropping Slasher or fed or gb, as SG is the only way to get them when it's not Christmas, and considering there are only about 10 people with slashers (only about 3 dropped from SG) I think it could be something worth doing.
I like the idea, it'd be a lot better then searching the entire map for deluxe presents during Christmas event(especially players with low agility) or waiting for the occasional SG, because even when there are SG's it takes so long to kill them that people don't show up until they are close to dead, which is annoying when there's only 3-4 people killing it or less.
EFF YES (excuse my french) FOR THE GRAVITY CROWN DROP!
I would indeed like a monster that would drop deluxe presents but it should be something easily killable for everyone so no flashy agi or massive dmg&hp please. And I agree that it should spawn in desert.
I like the idea, but it shouldnt spawn all the way over there in noobland where no one goes... it'd bring everyone back and there would be way too much competition to who gets one.
A new successor to the DS that spawns at temple and little to west of desert would be nice.

Well designing a completely new monster probably will not happen, make golden blobs/bunnys spawn in desert dropping dux items?
