Voidwatch Final Chapter

[Camate]

Happy Monday everyone!

I have a follow-up comment from Mizuki Ito in response to all of the feedback received about the Voidwatch ticket system.

Thanks for all of your feedback on the ticket system. I’d like to give some follow-up information regarding this. (I’ve actually been discussing this in meetings.)

After looking into the specifications for this ticket system, as a result of continuous experimenting and testing while working on the feature for placing tickets into the treasure chest, we reached a conclusion that there would be a chance that a market tickets would develop even if it wasn’t possible to trade them and regardless of what system was adopted.

With this said, there is no meaning behind making them untradeable.

I believe there are pros and cons for both sides, but I am thinking that the best result would be to relegate this to you all and change it to a system where there is higher chance to help others and still make it so you can give tickets to others free of charge.

However, by making the tickets tradable, we will be changing the system so that more tickets are required to obtain equipment. It will also be necessary to fight the monster that drops the equipment and receive the title for defeat.

The below are the planned changes:

• Tickets will be made tradable.
• Two requirements will need to be fulfilled in order to exchange tickets for equipment.
  • Must possess 5 of the same type of ticket.
    (As we are currently revisiting this, there is a possibility that this number changes.)
  • Must have the title proving defeat of the monster that drops the respective piece of equipment.

We also received a lot of feedback regarding the possibility of having a different item be created when you change a piece of equipment into a ticket.

This is a nice idea for both the ticket giver and the receiver creating a win-win situation, but since we ultimately decided to make tickets tradable, we felt that even without this idea the tickets will find their way to those who want them, so we decided to put this off for now.

This is why most DDs use the Belt from Kaggen, healers use or want Heka's, people want Mekira, people want Toci's, people want the body from T2 CoP, people want this gear because it is garbage

belt sucks hekka sucks toci sucks what else ? You are one of those noobs that spam voidwatch for gear you *think* are good.

By "people" you are probably referring to the noobs that go along with you ? VW is a plot to to supply the majority of good players with the plate/cinder/dross they need and meteor/arise is a giant carot to keep them doing so over and over.


EDIT : I told you all that if you kept complaining they would listen. Good job I guess.

Last update:

Devs: We want you to work with your friends whom you may have to spend hundreds of thousands on gil's worth of voiddust for them so they'll bother opening chest on an NM they have a body for!

This update

Devs: Hope you have 50mil gil to buy in tickets for the body you're 0/250 on for the people mercing them, since no one else would waste stones without a real incentive for themself.

How about they just adjust the core problem which is that the drop rates are abyssmal to start with?

Yes, 6% Haste on most heavy DD jobs, you know, jobs that cant actually use Twilight, this 6% haste sucks, who would want that at all. WAR, DRK, PLD, SAM, DRK, they have no use for such a thing! +15% Cure Potency & -15% Cure Cast Time?! Worthless! What mage wants much better cures and lower cast time with 1 piece of gear!? It even has MND, so cures are a little bit more powerful and some refresh, damn thats shitty. And gives sphere of fast cast!? What reason would I want mages, DRKs, PLDs, or other jobs near me to cast faster with lower delay between them!? Your right, they do suck, what was I thinking, these are obviously horrible pieces of gear! -_-

I actually count you calling Heka's shitty, as trolling. Thats like if I were to say to you, Black Belt is a shitty piece of gear. 12% Haste, less damage taken, some STR, but its a shitty piece of gear even though those are things essential for a MNK, and it gives them all to you right there, even easy to get now. Doesn't even have a 1% drop rate.

It IS trolling, no doubt about it. Heka's is the best healing body for almost every job listed on the item. He likely means it "sucks" for WHM, as I know very well his opinion of mage jobs besides WHM. And he'd be wrong even about that. While it is better to cure in Orison Bliaud +2 for the cureskin bonuses, Heka's is still a great precast/idle body for WHM (when matched with a Nefer Khat/+1).

Its just his MNK view, and I admit, VW doesnt offer much more than those items he stated for MNK, but thats not to say in any form the gear from it sucks because some of the gear there is the best there is. And thats what makes it trolling, completly ignoring the fact other jobs actualy exist lol.

I shall now attempt to look on the bright side.

Requiring the titles is a nice touch and the system now planned is not as earth-shatteringly awful as that planned before. I'm glad the Development Bros listened to the tormented choir of wailing misery that so quickly and uniformly appeared within the community.

Enough looking on the bright side. Time to go drink some mouthwash because Voidwatch is still depressing.

I admit looking on the brightside is bad, we bitched alot, we made progress, things still are gonna suck, lets bitch more, and maybe, just maybe, they will actualy fix the entire problem with VW, that or we just hope it will come later and this will help out for now, either way myself I rather just bitch some more till a real fix tbh, seems more effective than hoping.

nirnurta's sash has been in this game for like 8 years, you are a bit late.

inbefore : missing accuracy and all the usal blurb. Have your bard bring real songs and your melee the correct food then we can talk.
