Doing damage is for WAR's, DRK is about soloing 75 content yo.....Originally Posted by Raelix
I somehow doubt it will be accessible in Abyssea, But even if it was, Forgetting the part where Battle between a Player Monster and a Player has to be consensual... Thats What i remember seeing at least. Either way, If it wasn't, Book burn leeches are open game !
Still, I want to start planning out my Family, Attack pattern etc now, But I don't wanna pick something like Chigoe or Apkallu now and then turn out they can't be selected... Or an Ambusher Antlion, etc.
So I can't get too hyped cause I don't know what type of Monsters are going to be available for use, Or if we'll be able to control what job they are (For Instance, Using Goblin as an Example, They have 5-6 Job types... BST, WAR, RDM, BLM, etc etc... Some monsters follow the same pattern... like Weapons are RDM or WAR, Will it auto-select or will we be able to pick which one we wanted?)
I'm still super fking Hyped, Do we have a release schedule D:? are there any rewards planned?
While the event sounds crazy fun, If its going to have any sort of long-life, It will need tangible rewards, rather rewards that help your monster, Or like Byrth(I think) Suggested, Rewards based on the Family you took to high level..
But uh, Did anyone notice they're looking into possible "BCNM" Type battlefields where you play as a Monster? I did... That looks sweet...
Yeah, I am actually looking forwards to this.
It would be fun to try a party battle where the party members were a mandragora, eruca, colibri and ... some whm mob? I actually don't know which mobs are white mages, except beastmen.
/sh <insert name here> BCNM (do you need it?) Mandragora / Treeant (Can I have it?) @4/6 !!
A system that has nothing to do with the rest of the game?
Pass.
Happy Friday!
We received another informative comment from "Play as a Monster" lead developer Iwagami, showing off a bit of the UI for the new system.

A waste of man power imho when those dev hours could be used to balance the game and fix existing content first (or add to it). SE has always had this mentality to add some shiny new feature just to draw in new players but they quickly forget about it (and not support any changes or new rewards). Pankration and Chocobo racing comes to mind. There was a bit of an update regarding chocobos but do you really see even 10% of the population raising chocobos to race? No.
Since the PvP will be consensual only... who is going to agree to get ganked by a party of 6 bees? It will end up just like ballista did. Why play against another player as a monster when you can do it as a player in ballista or PvP island?
Fissssh! It's what's for dinner! :9
