A few of the things iv personally noticed'
New Guild point items - While i haven't seen the specific items yet, Its a great idea. Their were many many bad items
Op warp - Will help out the majority of ppl, however I'm personally saddened by it. All that work to get each OP for all nations when i started...
Recurring pages Gov - Good idea, but the main thing i hear from ppl (including myself) Can you do this for abyssea book pages? Now that would be an even greater change.
Statues - So glad to see the rare/ex ones allowed to be sent within an account. Yet the Ark Angel statues, that can be traded or sold to anyone, remain unable to be sent. Why?
Stackable clusters - Love it. Saves me an incredible amount of room. Thank you. But in order to better it, i have one suggestion. Can we have a synth to turn a stack of crystals into a cluster? Since clusters are turned into crystals be shattering it, Perhaps a synth like Light crystal: 12 fire crystals = Fire cluster x1 (Since light crystals are for repairing)
Magian Elemental trails - This one seems a bit off putting. Now i haven't checked out each weapon, but i have looked at my Eva daggers.
My kila+2
Delay: 190
Dmg:43
Eva+20
Agi+9
The new Kila+3
Delay: 190
Dmg:45
Eva+20
Agi+10
40 breeze geodes for a +2dmg and a +1agi? Something seems a bit wrong with that. I can understand not wanting to make them to overpowered or anything, but at least in this case, the cost doesn't seem anywhere near able to justify the reward.
Ill add more should i think of anything. Thanks for listening.

Op Warp change is AMAZING, beyond genius!! Now I can do all the other country missions without having to redo for each country. Whoever came up with this, must be congratulated. LESS WORKS are always welcome in this grind fest game.
Recurring pages in GoV is AMAZING, just awesome. Now it needs to work on Aby and FoV. LESS WORKS in exp grind is always appreciated.
New rare/ex items that can be sendable, this is great, now they need to make ALL rare/ex items sendable between same accounts period!! This way more and more people will make alts and level them as well, which means MORE money for SE. They need someone with marketing and business experience in their team and focus on creating great service and easy fun game that generates MONEY.
Your suggestion on turning crystal into stackable clusters are genius, let's hope they do it.
Magian trials are retard, they need to add more bonus to the +3 level. Empyrian gives you new weapon skill, the elemental should be at least give a MUCH MUCH better stats, without the weapon skills. So the completist can brag their empyrian, and the casual can be happy with their elemental. -

The elementals are fine as they are, more so since 40 geodes are not hard at all to obtain. You get quite a few of them just from joining a party, so why are you complaining about "effort vs reward"? Magian trial weapons aren't supposed to be on the same tier as Empyrean/Relic/Mythic.
It's fine as is.
EDIT:
Also, how would you make Light Clusters, if you need to use 1 light crystal for it? I'd rather propose [like toolbags], it gets traded to an NPC for something trivial, like the wijnruit the Galka asks of you.
.../sigh, edit again:
No, because then that would make the entire point of questing / spending time farming, camping, etc; moot.Quote:

If you could send every item over NPC, it would mean you could make an alt and never have to spend effort on getting them items, just trade over items from your previous character and leech it to 95. Please think things through beforehand.
On another note, SE doesn't provide "bad" service, given they've granted us a test server with future content, a forum to discuss and contribute, a service rep that actually posts every now and then with answers to our complaints, and hasn't destroyed the core of the game entirely. Just as well, this game shouldn't be made "easy", since the 'fun', as you call it, is the fact that it requires effort to get things done. Trust me, the game generates money, otherwise it wouldn't be around. [Since it's the only MMO that keeps SE afloat, granted FFXIV tanked hard.] -

Why are the numbers appearing over mobs' heads (damage numbers, or healed HP) all compressed now? It gave me a seizure when I saw it.

I wondered about that, too. I was thinking that something was wrong with my settings, but it seems that it was just changed this past update. I liked the previous font used for damage.

09-23-2011, 03:27 AMGodofgodsSame way. Light crystal: 12 light crystals = light cluster x1.Quote:

However... if thats what SE has to do to make it possible to turn them into clusters, then so be it. Long as it gets done ill be happy lol. -

Battlefield III
Diablo III
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III
and many more ubar games that will take up even MORE time than those are on the way.
You cant make sloppy half assed updates like this and expect to keep your player base intact. At the very least if you continue to do updates like this last one then we are going to see people leaving the game - whether for a short time or permanently is up to you.
I personally keep saying "come on diablo 3.. come to xellith". -
09-23-2011, 04:43 AMLeonlionheart
Honestly unless SE does something significantly interesting to this game
I'm out when Diablo III comes out -
09-23-2011, 04:54 AMGokku

09-23-2011, 05:08 AMGodofgods
Its a trasition period for FFXI, you do realize that right? Everything cant be made and done perfectly right away. They have to take the updates slowly, and adjust things as they progress. Theirs no sence in updateing content to lvl 85 or introducting to much new content, when they no they have more level increase to come. Youll have to wait till an update or two AFTER the 99 cap has been reached to realy see where the game will be headed.

09-23-2011, 06:12 AMLeonlionheartSo then what's to keep players around for that long?Quote:

09-23-2011, 01:22 PMModoru
Again, god forbid you're forced to actually /work/ for your items.

I actually do Voidwatch because it's the only way up for my WAR (even though most of it is barely an increase), since I literally have everything aby has to offer my WAR, except maybe 6% of both PDT and MDT dark rings
