As somebody who has not played Corsair all too much, the job is a challenge to me, and I see it requires many sets to be useful.
Recently I defeated all five Wildskeepers, and managed to get this Bullet in the process. I finished the quest with Reja to receive further awards.
This bullet inspired me to bring my Corsair out of retirement, so I could do tougher content like Tojil, as my other jobs are not up to the task.
So I went into Abyssea today to try and cap my Marksmanship skill. I had set macros to bring in Bronze bullets. I found Bhumi and decided to do a Wildfire on it.
Then I noticed my dreaded mistake ... this absolutely insane bullet was gone from my inventory. I had made the terrible mistake of not adding a bullet line to my Wildfire macro.
To lose a bullet of this caliber in such a way is upsetting. In order to get another, I would need to do Hurkan over and over, and just pray it will drop once more. It may require tons of bayld and time to receive something I already achieved.
I called a GM instantly to express my sadness. The GM informed me that they "might" be able to restore the item as part of a one time only service. I am now waiting up to ten days for a response from Square Enix on this matter.
I strongly urge anybody who feels that having the ability to accidentally shoot such a powerful bullet to be ridiculous, to please "Like" my post here.
Square Enix made particular throwing items to be impossible to throw in the past. It only makes sense to make steps to stop bullets such as these (that are clearly not meant to be shot ever) to be consumed. Either that, or change the drop itself from Hurkan.
For example, Hurkan could drop an Animikii Quiver or another item which could expend a particular amount of Animikii bullets. If there is an issue of requiring this bullet to be rare/ex, then perhaps Reja (NPC in the library) could allow players who have defeated Hurkan to buy this bullet for a certain amount of bayld.
I hope SE takes this into consideration.
