I'd imagine those low level masters are gonna be tough like those lvl 61 ones were to obtain.

I call bs on your call on bot groups, at least on the server I'm on. It wasn't until late late t5, early t6 that bot groups became rampant in zones like ools which I'm sure you're refering to. I never saw one bot group in pf while I lvl'ed up there and went to get the named for access to the raid zone. I also never saw bot groups in CT while leveling up and getting access to the zone needed for the HQ until early when t6 content was released. Also, named for lavastorm HQ's were never camped by bot groups when t5 was the current content. Maybe on your server things were different. If it was then you have a valid argument.

Furthermore, I'm not asking for 2 hour spawns . Not sure really what you're derailment there was about. It was then supported by your last paragraph stating the result of ultra rare harvests and spells. I think you are mis interpreting what I'm saying because this last paragraph you typed and the sentence refering to two hour spawns has nothing to do with Named with no chest drops. I didn't even remotely ask for any of that. If you're going to make an argument, at least make one against what I'm saying, not stuff that you're just making up.

Lastly, the only thing that making chests more rare with possible masters/legendary/rares in them is going to do one thing, drive the price of masters/legendary/rares up. There will be less supply and the prices will go up. Its pretty simple. The last thing I want is for the average Joe to have to dish out crazy amounts of plat for masters that mainly raiders will have access too.

So, I stand by my decision that Named with no loot is unhealthy for the game.

But you know what, these named still have a chance for loot. So guess what. If there is anything of slight value that drops from them, people are still going to camp and farm them so this really solves nothing. If people are being disruptive to gameplay that is another issue that shouldn't be resolved by changing how loot drops imho. There is another system already in place for this. Its /report. I think its a shame this was SOE's solution to this problem.
