Is there something that's going to be relevant with those? I mean let's face it, while you can still make parties and get invites if you know what your'e doing (I usually get low level parties when i try for it) there are a lot of peopel who feel that leveling in lower areas isn't quite worth it. At least on my server people complain a lot that they haven't been in a low level party in weeks. Then I go and make one and try to invite them, but they've usually logged off. :P
But anyway back on topic, what is the relevancy the dev team is looking at with these treasure caskets and grounds of valor. Those seem like something that would have been great pre-abyssea but a lot of the areas just seem kinda futile. Other than doing Missions and a quest here and there how often are people going to get the Fei Yin treasure caskets. Is Dangruff Wadi relevant to have treasure caskets in?
With the exp gained outside Abyssea being doubled, and Abyssea leeching possible/plausible from the 30s-50s and up, is there really any point in having grounds of valor. I mean Once you're about the level of a White Gate leveling party, most of the healing jobs can easily get an Abyssea leveling party. So unless you have some die hard old school levelers, you rarely get things like Colibri parties in the Aht Urghan areas.
So having treasure caskets in some of these mid level areas are kinda pointless, and most importantly the lower level areas really aren't relevant due to the fact that exp gains have doubled so you'll probably out class the weapon or item in a place like Dangruff Wadi before you have a chance to farm it.
It just seems like this content addition here is just too late, and not bringing enough to the table. Am I missing something? Or will these items be just so great that I'll be eating my words and editing this post in order to save face?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but is there any significant relevance? With our Anniversary rings coming soon, how many people are likely to benefit from the treasure caskets? I might get a few tabs here and there for teleportation services while i do some random things in Aht Urghan areas, but doubt i'll be leveling there.
Last time I killed stuff there was on my 90 Pup because i was helping someone who was struggling as a DRG to get Kindred Seals for his limit break. Not so sure I'll be going back there often. I'd like to... but finding people in that level range who AREN'T just trying to get into Abyssea parties isn't very likely.
It's much easier to use the "Search Comment" and /sea all to form lower level parties.
