Actually.... I don't think there is a single racial weapon in the game, much less a sellable one. o.o That would be a wonderful choice to piff if needed.

Can we adjust the range for the doors entering and leaving Staging points? You literally have to hump them to open them. Also, can we add an option for Salvage to not need to queue for door opening? Something that can be toggled on/off. Most of the time, I do the same zone and I know the route I want to take.

Is it possible to have more than 1 mogenhancement at a time? Can we store up to 50 voidwatch stones, we can quest them if u want but it would really help for events. and another thing, Why does the nm for the hocho never drop it?, ive camped him for 4 weeks now, its rediculous. Thanks for all that you do. We appreciate it. A few more things. Could we get more bayld for coupons, 1k isnt hardly any bayld, its a waste of a coupon. Also matsya rate is too low, it needs to be higher, synergy needs to be higher because people on my server jacked the prices of materials out of the roof. you can farm them but its a pain and they hq4 at a rate of 1/60. voodoo gear is great i love it, but it needs a boost, it needs something to make it worth even more so people quit undercutting, and it wont be so slow selling anymore. dynamis is fun and cool but it would be even funner if other jobs other than thief could get 100s more easily, then people would bring bst and blue etc in and would be alot of fun. there also needs to be a few new ways to make alot of big money quickly to support getting empy relic etc. also the aeonic is cool but half the time other people don't want to help you fight, so u pretty much have to solo all u can and fail at the rest. these are just a few ideas i had. i love the game, have since close to the beginning of it, and i love all ff games. Also, can we get bayld for fighting monsters in the regions that are bayld ones. that would be great to be able to get garden growing good with materials each night.

One-handed Relics in offhand should provide at least the +attk stat, this needs fixed, it just seems to be a nonsense mistake gone on and never addressed. Empy can add +50stat as offhand but relics ie: Mandau/kikoku still dont give the +40/60attk (for those who dont care about the ws and am/ag - can still be a decent offhand)

Sorry might of posted this in 2 spots.

Also, can we add Chocobuck for the currency exchange of vouchers or the items for healing the Chocobo's to Sparks for purchase? I've tried several times to use the Mog Garden to grow the Tokopekko Wildgrass but it's just isn't coming up. The grass can only be grown or purchased with chocobucks, but if you can't clear the trial races, then you can't earn any chocobuck. Some other place to help get the items to tend to the sickness of Chocobo's would be great.

there should be a save item feature on the ah, for those people who repetitively get the same items, but can never find it when they need it kind of like the synergy list, and u can add favorites etc.

the limit to gill sent should be 5 million or 10 million. some people have alot of mules to feed.

people who control the market themselves for an extended period of time should be banned. or punished in some way.

LMAO. This is illogical, silly, and impossible to implement. ^^

QOL request
Even though I'm done with meriting, but merits and cp should be able to be done outside of mog.
2nd, can we have a crystal menu like Ff14 so it doesn't bother inventory?
Crystal's really that sacred still need to 12 stack them only?

I would like to request that SE ease up on many restrictions put in place to battle RMT. I think it's safe to say that battle is over in this game, but even if it is not: The million gil limit needs to go. The coral fragment fishing nerf REALLY needs to go(I talk out of my ass here I assume it's in effect after much research and supply being next to none on Q). Several other such nerfs need to be eased up or let go.


As for controlling the market, Bill Gates gonna Gates, okay. If you want to avoid encountering Bill Gates then you don't weasel your way onto a market scene Bill Gates brought back from the dead and start undercutting Bill Gates expecting no response, lol. Sharing sales is fine with Bill Gates. Bill Gates does not mind that. But Bill Gates gonna Gates when you start getting greedy and cause a price war. Pro-tip: don't focus on a single item. It only causes price wars and eventually market crashes, and I guarantee you Bill Gates will be the one who brings it back from the dead shortly after you move on to another item.

It's definitely not, but it's clear that the anti-RMT measures they have in place serve more as an inconvenience to those of us playing by the rules than to those of us working around them.

i was wondering if you could increase the time on spectral jig from what it is to at least what silent oils and prism powders are.

I honestly can't think of any anti-RMT features that would still be required nowadays... I'm pretty sure that simple sparks farming probably would be able to net any hypothetical modern RMTs significantly more gil/hr than any other activity like fishing/farming possibly could... I personally loathe the fishing fatigue system and would rejoice IRL if it were removed. It's the insurmountable barrier to me getting any form of enjoyment out of fishing now. :(

BILL GATES!!!

by this i meant that there are people who have been running crafting for 8 plus years. especially goldsmithing on my server. i know they are a paying customer, but they hurt so many other people from ever wanting to do that craft by cheating the market.

That's not cheating the market, it's called establishing a brand name. XD Do you seriously believe that players should be punished for being successful?

there is no success when you buy your gil to get started with a monopoly.

If they bought it nearly a decade ago, there's little that could (or should) be done about it at this point.. Even real world crimes have a statute of limitations ya know? XD

And other than the specific names that irritate you, how many unrelated, honest crafters would be potentially affected by any sort of AH-scan-based punishment? Probably more than one, which would be too many IMO as far as this issue goes.

I don't really understand how or why anyone can "cheat" the crafting market/system, btw.

all i know is this person im referring to, must use an outside program, or bot of some sort because he changed over 100 items in goldsmithing every 6 hours. either this person is superman, or he has other people working with him on a daily basis and they must be getting paid somehow to continue to do this. the outside effect though is it destroys the market. all the tears are 3,500,000 and the ites are the same price, hepatizon ingots are from 10k to 300k, every couple hours fluctuating. u have to have an endless supply of gil to even attempt to buy and resell all these items, and cover up the market prices, or work for SE.

So it appears that someone is setting the AH prices by selling to self or colluding with others? I don't remember if this is actually against TOS, but think it might be covered as a prohibited activity, so maybe try making a GM report? Take screenshots of the offending AH entries as backup evidence just in case they ask for 'em. But if you are saying that a single seller is controlling the price for all of the servers sales but other players are buying, well... that's free market mechanics at work. XD

EDIT: Just a quick look thru ffxiah shows that the history on single Ifritear, Shivatear, Titatear, Leviatear, Garutear, and Ramutar are all suspiciously similar with the same list of sellers and same list of buyers, all of the names involved also appear to be related (French maybe?) plus are all 5x-10x more expensive than the nearest server's median price. So in this case at least, I'd say it's definitely worth the time to file an official complaint.

BTW, I'm not objecting to the enforcement of the rules or saying that this issue never happens. ^^;; I wholeheartedly object to the idea/suggestion that doing so should be handled automatically by a part of the program. Enforcement of non-hacking rule violations should always be directly handled by an actual person and not a machine to avoid innocents from being wrongfully punished.

Setting the prices by selling to yourself via the means of secondary characters, etc is very much against the ToS

I figured as much, but really not in the mood to go digging thru the TOS for the chapter/verse so to speak. ^^;;
Though really, when is anyone really in the mood to read legalese? XD

Heres the thing, all those people ARE the same person, he has like 14 plus mules somehow. also he changes them out back and forth but everyday for 8 years the same thing. also he has been reported by several people esp me 8x, the SE people wont do a darn thing about it because they say its legal and hes a paying customer.

is there anyway to get more slots in the delivery box, like maybe 10-15 more. i know that sounds like a rediculous amount, but having 4 main crafts i transfer alot of stuff back and forth, and its very time consuming, especially making voodoo.

what if we got 1 copper voucher per char every day like login pts, and during campaigns we could get like 3. does that sound reasonable?

since there is a limit to chocobo digging. i feel that we should be able to dig up more higher levels of bayld, alexandrite, plutons, pluton cases, beitetsu, rift boulders, heavy metal pouches, maybe keep most of these rare, but still obtainable, and sparkling stones, and other useful items, the stuff you dig right now,, after leveling to a10 digging is bull. it took 3 years of my life to get to a10 8 years ago, and it used to be useful until the cap was put on it. im just throwing out suggestions of stuff I would like to see, if anyone else has other ideas add them to this please.

there should be a warp from the mog garden to the npc that sells upgrades in town. or books as you have it.

ok i figured out the synthesis, got my gold capped and my leather capped plus the stretcher and support for leather but i cannot for the life of me hq the brass jadagna. im 0/40 and the materials took quite some time to get. Any suggestions or ideas?

BGwiki has "Brass Jadagna" recipe @ 82GS w/ "~42-52"LC.. It's quite probable that the absolute best you can get would be T1 HQ rate, so ~1/16 (~6.25% HQ rate.) Going 0/40 is far from improbable. Complaining about mats will have zero response or effect, so I wouldn't bother. ^^;;;
As a side note, rather than spam a thread with single line self replies, you might want to just update your first post with any updated information, particularly if there is not much traffic... I also am confused as to why you are spam posting in the QOL thread about a crafting issue.

it was that couple weeks , it was bad for synthesis im now 4/5.

Could we get a way to increase the duration of Ionis?
Or, better yet, make all Signet/Sanction/Sigil/Ionis buffs permanent until you change them, after you've finished their respective mission lines?
I know I'm lazy, but 3 hours of Ionis feels really bad when Signet basically lasts most of the day.

Also, really hoping for the ability to exchange the Heirloom Necklaces from Adoulin in the future. They are not amazing pieces (as Reives are old content, and we're not likely to get any new Reive content), but certainly being able to exchange them once a week could be neat for when people get into the mood to farm Reives.

A big part is Signet/Sanction/Sigil are tied to other systems so they can't just up and change that.

Ionis is an interesting thing but it too seems tied to certain things. I see nothing wrong with a duration increase, but it seems they have things balanced for a specific reason. (As much as people hate and argue balance, from a design standpoint it makes sense they are how they are.)

Duration on something that limited is hardly going to break balance. Just remove tedium.

I think what Elexia's saying (and agreeing that a duration increase would be fine) is that the content buffs like Sigil/Signet are not static or simple and would be difficult/dangerous to change. Durations are all tied to mission progress except for Ionis I think? So, the others would probably be a no-go, but Ionis duration is not affected by anything that I know of.. It may be a pretty complicated buff w/ all the variable bonuses that are tied to it, but Maybe tie it in to average Coalition Rank or something along those lines? That would put the max pretty close to Signet, so I don't see any problem with that. I don't see the devs tossing us a baseline duration increase out of the kindness of their hearts, so there would have to be something tied to it.

Yep pretty much this. It's easy to forget that it does more than just allow us to gain x points and allow you to get crystals lol, so it's not too big of a deal but it would require them to change other things as well. Since yeah as I even said I see nothing wrong with them increasing duration, but it's the other things attached to it they'd more than likely have to take into consideration first. These days it's not really that big of a deal since it seems you go from starting > adoulin content in no time flat.

I have a suggestion for the party status icons. Currently it is to the left side of the screen. It would make more sense to put it on top of the party display to the right. That way when you target a party member you do not have to look over to the other side of the screen.

thanks

Can we get a change to the way that Dual Wield / Martial Arts work? Right now, in haste capped situations, TP gain gets penalized for the full value of DW/MA even though we only need DW+36% to cap delay. (MA values vary with the weapon delay, so not sure what the value for capping would be.) If you could change it so DW/MA is applied after haste and cap TP gain penalty to the amount applied to hit the 80% delay cap, that should allow jobs that are flooded with DW/MA (NIN/MNK/PUP) to not generate TP slower than other jobs. This change would not affect the value of DW/MA in non-haste capped situations, and could make certain equipment (like KKK for PUP) no longer cause a damage loss over time due to being overcapped on DW/MA.

We have so many costume items that change how our characters look so why is changing your race so impossible?

Ammos have no effect on lockstyles currently so my suggestion would to be to add "mask" ammo items that change your race appearance when they are used in a lockstyle. You could also use these items to bleed out some of the gil from the community. Taru and Mithra masks sold in Windurst, Elvaan masks sold in San d'Oria, and Hume and Galka masks sold in Bastok. Make a "mask" item for each hair and face option for the races and problem fixed. I'm so tired of seeing race changes getting shot down when there are plenty of ways to add it in. There is literally no excuse to force people to give up years of hard work because you are too lazy to add a race change option. I'm sure a lot of us chose our race because of stat advantages, which have now been adjusted to be very small compared to what they were years ago...

---

We passed this idea along to the dev. team as we understand that there is a high demand for this. However, there are no plans to offer a service or item where players would be able to change races at this time.

We appreciate your suggestion and hope you'll continue to offer new ones in the future.
