I have been enjoying the new content, I'm excited to see the endgame battle content for this new mission line, and hope it allows 18 players, unlike odyssey

[Demetric]

Respectfully, pleadingly. As a Dnc/ main I'd really love some info on the jobs overhaul. Not just for Dnc but jobs in general.

Thank you for your time.

Mireu was the only dragon that needed griefing prevention. Please change back Spike Flail on the rest of the Domain Invasion dragons.

[Mnejing]

Give us trusts of the Gloom Phantom trio~

I'm very excited to begin empyrean armor upgrades next month and the prospects of Prime weapons hopefully in the near future. If there is any chance we can get some previews or a broad road map for the next year or two it would probably make a lot of people feel reassured. We can all understand avoiding spoilers but a little more transparency would be appreciated.

I have a good feeling that there is still more in store for us and that you're going to be taking care of us for many years to come. I just wish it was a feeling that was easier to share with the nay sayers of the community. I've really enjoyed the last half year playing more casually than I normally do and hope that experience stays. My only complaint is that I'm at mastery level 30 and I hope there is some relief before the cap hits 50.

So, I do know players ask you both about a "Fantasia" for FF11 like they do have in FF14, I would like to ask if their is a possibility to add in a color pallet to change only Hair, skin and eyes for any model, something simple and be something more diverse in FF11. Not asking to bring in a hairstylist like in FF14 which would be nice, but to keep something simple and to fund the FF11 team for future projects. Fantasia and including more color to our Skin tone, hair color and eye color.

Spike Flail should never really be triggered in the first place outside of someone being entirely clueless, so it's kind of a non-issue.

Disagree. Spike flail should have been the only WS seen used by the lesser dragons because it was much less annoying to deal with than a long duration terror or having all buffs wiped. Fighting from behind almost always prevented those WSs from happening. This adjustment was clearly someone at SE not understanding nuances of the problem.

[jasne]

it's an asura problem caused by a few jerks, I think the fix is too severe though

I must have missed that meta, back in the days of trying to pop nidhogg, no one *ever* did anything like this. You had a tank stand on one foot and everyone else on the other.

[Catmato]

Nidhogg wasn't in Domain Invasion, where the damage is comparatively lower and the stakes are almost non-existent.

[Alhanelem]

I didn't technically use the words "domain invasion", but "the lesser dragons" and "this adjustment" clearly implied I was talking in context of domain invasion, since you were replying to a comment about domain invasion. What's with the pedantry? (https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/threads/59521-Fixing-Nuke-BP-Wall-Adding-WS-Wall?p=644301&viewfull=1#post644301)

What's with the pedantry? Ambiguity causes problems. Like this one. Precision is a good thing. Why be less specific when you can be more?

Regardless, the vast majority of experience I've ever had with wyrm type monsters has been "Flail is bad, don't allow it to happen." And clearly, that mantra held true for Mieru, if you didn't want to be a jerk. I only participate in DI very infrequently and was very unaware of the tactic you described. In fact probably most of the times i've done it have been mieru pops, where ppl actually yell on the server to get people to come.

[Catmato]

For anyone who can follow a conversation at the most basic level, there was no ambiguity.

[Alhanelem]

For anyone who can follow a conversation at the most basic level, there was no ambiguity.Thanks for the backhanded insult in implying i'm incapable of "following a conversation", but I disagree. Even if you think people can see through it, there is ambiguity. The ease with which you think someone can make the correct determination is irrelevant. If it's even possible to come to multiple different conclusions, there is ambiguity- it exists on e a spectrum, there is no simple "yes ambiguous" or "not ambiguous."

Precision is always better, no matter how basic or how obvious you think things are. A properly written post will leave little to no room for anyone, no matter who they are, to come up with an incorrect conclusion or some response that would be unrelated in that context.

If you said "spike flail in domain invasion" there would have been no room for anyone to even think of spike flail being used by any other monsters.

Thank you for the increased cap on Master Levels. I enjoy forming parties and earning levels. And the large number of points to level up really feels like an accomplishment. I already have one job at L40 and another at L38 and am still loving the grind!

Unsure if this is a serious post?

[Velner]

Yes, it is an earnest post. I genuinely enjoy the grind and having those large goals to accomplish. I currently have two L40 jobs (DRK; RUN) and we are working on number three. I wanted to ensure that the developers got positive feedback on the increased cap.

I never specified that I was talking about you. If it was about you, I would have been precise and it would have been perfectly clear.

[Ferth]

I have been unable to continue the Voracious Resurgence mission Delkfutt the Great. For the last three hours Noillurie has either been injured or busy. I sincerely hope this wasn't intentional...

[Alhanelem]

I never specified that I was talking about you. If it was about you, I would have been precise and it would have been perfectly clear.I do believe you have met your wittiness quota for the year already.
