Dungeon Timers.

While you're completing a dungeon, a timer could keep track of how long it takes from when you right-click the boss, until you finish it off. This could also add some more competition to dungeons, and maybe some new achievements?

Like this. And maybe, if it isn't too unfair, the timer could affect the rarity of the loot? Unless the loot is already preset. I never messed around with Aether codes; only Regular MC.

If the timer would affect the rarity of the loot all the newbies are doomed.

Cant see any good reason for having timers. Besides that, how will you manage it with multiple players?
Once someone killed a boss, it would stay there forever on top, with no way of getting past it.
Also the loot is pre-set when a dungeon is regenerate after the defeat of the boss. (common sense, no need to look into a code for this)

On right click, create timer with Boss and Player instances, if Player disconnects or dies, or Boss instance dies or is no longer existent, end timer, sort from cause.
