Let Producer Matsui Know How He Should Catch Up on 2 Years!

Definitely reduce the amount of BLU spells needed for VWNM (as many have stated before). While on the subject of BLU, could you please make it so we have different loadouts of spell sets for varying situations?

Also non-rehashed endgame content that doesn't involve artificially prolonging a fight to get more drops (read: weakness systems in abyssea/dynamis/voidwatch).

I would say something about closing the gap between WAR and other DD jobs but that seems to have been beaten to death.

Hello there!
It's nice to ask player what they want, hope your team will read all the replies!
First => The Shaper's Shawl thing... fishing??? really? i love to craft really, but fishing?.. no thanks! This item is supposed to help us craft, right? like every guild item! make it a guild item^^
Second => Reduce the repop from nm in sky
Third => Less heavy metal plates for the 95 upgrade! 1 500 is insane (same for the numbers of alexandrite needed) in dyna you can get 600+ currencies / day , and what ~100/150 alexandrites?? there's something wrong in here!

I have not played enough to really talk about the endgame system, as I have not expirienced it yet. However I have a couple of requests that I see many people on this forum are asking for:

1) Allow equipment sets to be saved and called into a macro. I'd imagine it would work where when you go into your equipment screen, a list like your macro set lists pops up. You can select a set, and either "equip, modify, delete, rename." Then when making a macro, you can swap out the entire equipment set in one call. For example if I made a high HP set, I could name the set "HP", and equip the set with a command such as /equip set "HP"

2) Allow us to append /wait to then end of any macro command. This would effectivly double our available macro lines. For instance if i wanted to cast water, wait 6 seconds, cast aero, wait 5, and cast stone it would look like:

/ma "Water" <t>; 6
/ma "Aero" <t>; 5
/ma "Stone"


3)I also ask you to keep in mind your entire player base, specifically those who cannot schedule time to do a static, and those who's playtime is volatile and they don't know how long they can stay on. Pick up groups should be able to progress to a certain point before hitting a point where the teamwork that comes with a static group familiar with each other is needed to overcome. This gives a pick-up group the ability to progress and upgrade their gear, while awarding those who dedicate themselves to a static better rewards. Furthermore a side piece of the content should be released so those who prefer to solo or have volatile playtime can experience some content, and get some gear/rewards (Though the rewards the require the party should always be better).

4) Lastly it would be nice if you alleviated some of the hardship a new player has in obtaining gil. In my experience and talking with others, getting gil is really hard until you reach level cap. I'm not sure the exact approach you could take here, as it would have a great effect on the economy, but I'm thinking the easiest way to do this would be to greatly increase the rewards getting rank 2/3 and maybe 4.

On the issue of Mythics:

I remember when Mythics first came out, Square announced that achieving one these weapons would be easier than getting a Relic weapon. Even back then, when the cap was still level 75 and people still did ToAU, I didn't see how Square could possibly make a whooper of a claim like that. And now it's practically a pipe dream, with the number of completed Mythics not much different from when they were originally introduced (although I imagine there are some pissant elitists who are happy about that).

So here are some suggestions to falicitate the process:

Assaults
Remove the need to enter with 3 people.

Nyzule Isle
With the neo version of this you can have the number of tokens awarded multiplied by the number of participating members.

Einherjar
Multiply inchor by the number of mobs defeated, and by a flat 12 for defeating Odin (14 for Odin v2).

Beastmen Kings
You're already addressing this, apparently. So I have nothing to add.

Salvage
Lower the entry number, it's not like people don't enter with three and have the others warp out or something. Add the ability to respawn the mobs, increase drop rates, make cells into Key Items.

Can you guys add Critical Hits for ranged attack automaton? I find it odd that it still hasn't been fixed, but using attachment like dynamo is useless with sharpshot frame because ranged attacks can't critical. Also make puppet magic attacks that say -->"X-mob resists the spell" not be cast again cause it is annoying waste of MP when any competent player would stop casting after this message. Maybe similar to scanner, but only after the first cast and message. Puppet AI could definitely use some sprucing up though.

i posted this on FFXIAH forums. figured i should post it here to, just to show the devs what i would like to see!

**Storage!
*Mog furnishings
furniture now has its own palce, no longer will your
inventory suffer, enjoy decorating your moghouse however
you please!, without the clutter. (limited to 80 furniture peaces
Per mog house)
* Veteran satchel,
the first reward to be implemented for those
who have been around a wile, this reward is for any player older
than 1 year of subscription. and can be expanded to 80 via a
series of quests similar to the gobbie bag. but with key items.
rewarded from varus already existing BCNMs/KSNMs/NMs
this satchel is similar to the mog satchel in the way you can
access it anywhere

**Environment
*clutter-free paths
we took notice our world was a bit... eh. messy so
we hired a crack team of landscapers to go around cleaning
dirty old roots, stones, rubble and whatever else is
laying around making getting around a hassle, this basically
means no more stumbling or issues climbing stairs, climbing over
roots and such
*Weather
in conjunction with the global worming. the volcanoes of Vana'diel
are more active than ever. thus making fire weather considerably
more common

**Quests
*added mini quests for CoP and RoZ unlocking a new series of
Trial of the magians and unlocking the ability to upgrade of
for some sweet sweet gear!

**Item related
* new gear to be added, rewards for new Trial of the magians
here is a wonderful
example!
Trial 10001 Collect 20 Promethia rods from
the battlefield: "promithia V2.0"
reward: Raja's ring +1
http://i.imgur.com/2XqcT.png
*Ores and Logs stack!
no more hassling with a cluttered up mess
nor several trips to haul the goods to your crafters!

**Voidwatch adjustments
*claim and drops
We failed to realize that not everyone is fortunate to be able to
obtain a Relic/Empyrean or Mythic weapon. and the WoE versions were
feesable. until some recent adjustments. making coins no longer
able to be obtained via individual mobs. we relize this was a
mistake and hurt the soloists and lowman groups of Vana'diel
coin purses will still remain a reward from bosses
however coins will again drop from individual mobs
and mob claims and drops will act like normal mobs. (example,
someone standing in the battlefield NOT in your party will not be
able to fight the mob you have claimed or obtain drops unless
invited to the party)

**Battle related
*Tp loss from too far
No longer will you lose TP if you attempt to weaponskill from a
distance!
*Auto-Regen and Auto-refresh modified!
the job traits Auto-regen and Auto-refresh have been modified
there is now a level modifier to increase the potency depending
on the level. at level 99 they are 3HP/MP a tick

**Harvesting related
*we have been noticing a lack of activities in the harvesting of
resources. we found the process to be a bit dull and figured we
should review the system for changes. which will include
* resource vains remaining for several more rounds of harvesting
*less unwanted resources such as beast-man armor
*adjusting drops making items such as nuts/creampuffs obtained
via harvesting rather than logging

General changes:

Add a new, general class merit group, that allows us to increase our
+Base Attack/Ranged Attack +
Defense
+Magic Attack,
+Magic Accuracy
+Enmity Cap Up and Down (the ability to increase or decrease out total enmity cap)

Content Related:

Instead of making dedicated "6-man content" or "18-36 man content", have all the contents difficulty scale with the number of people who participate. Similar to the recent changes to Legion.

Example:

New content that increased in difficulty for every 3 players taking part. Difficulty can increase by the number of mobs, mob attack and defense stats, and the TP abilities and Spells it has access to. More player equals a harder fight, but increases the number of rewards or the percentage that certain items will drop.



Make existing and future content difficult, but not so hard that it is almost required to have all attacking jobs to possess full relic weapons, and to use SMNs 2 hour ability with Perfect Defense to have a chance at beating it. All content should be made so that a good, above level group can defeat it, maybe with some difficulties, WITHOUT 2 hour abilities and relics. These things should make content easier to beat, not make them required to beat it.

For the love of everything holy, please make the login process go through 1-2 screens instead of 8-10.

Please make the Claustrum a viable staff for BLM that makes it better than the elemental magian staves combined. It's pretty much the only relic weapon that's completely useless.
