You know ? I am going be honest , one thing that just. how to put it .

[sc4500]

You worked your A@! off for a weapon or gear for 1 year to 2 years or more for some people and had to deal with all the drama to get what you wanted , only to find out that , your gear is worthless every time new content comes out and there is no system in place to update that gear that many people work there butts off to get.

Only to Rage quit.

Many people over the years given them ideas. I mean all you got to do is look at the modern mmos see how they do it for there old gear that people work so hard to get.

You Look at some the old gear you work your a@! off and have a way that makes it insane still and then the people will play the old content still.

Not rage quit

Synergy system would work if got old piece that took alot of time now or later and add a new piece and then get a piece that worth a dang.

example : Like if got a relic weapon or emperon or mythic weapon, can combined it to a delve weapon for a higher damage.

example : if got got the original nyzle gear combine it with the neo gear and a piece in adoulin get a great piece.

I said the same thing about Aldoulin content because I have 4 empyreans stuck at 90 and I refuse to upgrade them because it would either cost to much or take to long. I think SE doesn't want it to be a requirement to have new expansions upgrade old gear from old expansions but people just feel like they wasted their time with their old gear when a new expansions comes out it makes all the old gear obsolete. If they continue to do this though I'm not sure how much longer I will play.

This argument has already been kidnapped, tied up, abused, humiliated, photos taken and posted on FB, beatdown, gangbanged, stabbed, gutted, beheaded, poured gasoline, burned, buried, unburied, creamated, resurrected, exorcism to death...


SE already stated they are going to give REM updates to be on par with delve weapons. Not much detail but yeah you are making a new argument that was mutilated to death already in a previous post that a good chunk of the community went over where the devs themselves responded.

Dated gear isn't such a new concept anymore (at least in today's gen of MMO's). The problem with this is how frustratingly long and annoying it is to farm up said gear. Sure, a little difficulty is good, but XI's method of time sink and drop rates is...yeah. From this perspective, I completely understand why so many people are frustrated each time a new update or patch renders their gear obsolete or not as powerful.

I think the devs need to examine the balances more and lax some of this. Killing the same NM (killed with relative ease) over a thousand times just to hopefully get the drop you want is downright frustrating and a waste of time. And its equally frustrating to see all that time rendered useless when new content makes that drop useless.

This right here is the major reason why casual players, aka the majority of the money from this game. Simply give up and go to greener fields. FFXI has retained the grindy and frustrating gear drop/farm/etc rate yet has moved to model that requires gear to be much, MUCH easier to obtain.
