Problem is we liked the game as it was but once you get used to how it is now its really hard to go back. I did the old endgame content, HNM camps for 4-8 hours every day, late night events etc and at the time I enjoyed them but now I've got used to new FFXI the thought of how it used to be makes me want to puke.Quote:
I love how people cried so much for FFXI to go back to how it was pre-abyssea and now that its starting to not be as easy as abyssea people are crying the game is going back to how it was pre-abyssea.
Even the most hardcore of us isn't really ready for the game time warping back to old "tanaka" ways.
Sooo.... Emps?

What's up with the whining about Emps, they are the easiest job specific end game weapons to get so far. Dare i remind you all about the Mythics?
30,000 Alexandrite
Balrahn's Eyepatch
Wyrmseeker Areuhat
100,000 Therion Ichor
150,000 Nyzul Isle Tokens
Mamool Ja Journal
Lebros Chronicle
Leujaoam Log
Periqia Diary
Ilrusi Ledger
Plus all the prerequisite quests, basically beating the whole expansion content 100%. Then running it for months to acquire the items/ichor/alexandrite.

For us Emp Weilders, let Us Hope the drop ratio of Heavy Metal Plates are not along the lines of waitting in Xara for your Relic THF and RDM to arrive, pre-level capped raised. -

I gotta say I love everyone who is wining about how hard 90-95 stage is for such a minimal reward. It damn well should be. Empyreans are stronger than Relic and Mythic in some instances. In gil alone a relic will cost over 100mil gil and an mythic can cost around 300mil gil. They take a lot more effort. Empyreans on the other hand can be busted out very quickly and easilly.
Why should an Empyrean be better than Mythics and Relics, when they take considerbly less time, gil and/or effort? This is SE's way of leveling the playing field, and making it so it is actually expensive and time consuming to have your ultimate weapon.
