Very disappointed that brd did not get +2 to their specific songs for each piece

I hope there is an increase to the likelihood that we see +2 earrings in Sortie. I have yet to see one for myself or the other 2 people I run with. That's pretty disappointing given how large the range of the random augments is on the earrings.

please increase the amount of gallimaufry we can hold beyond 99,999. it's too easy to waste points when the cap is so low and +3 costs are so expensive.

the cap is so low? I've never come close to hitting it. Maybe I'm just not as efficient as you, but how hard is it to just.... spend it?

it's very possible to sit above 70k without getting a starstone to drop, and at that point you either spend another 90k or waste overflow points

The maximum amount of Gallimaufry that may be held by a player should be increased from 100,000 to 1,000,000. However, it needs to be higher than 100,000. It makes no sense to sell items from the NPC at 90,000 but the maximum that may be held is 100,000 when a run returns over 20,000 Gallimaufry.

Sortie is the least fun I've had playing FFXI in the last 6 years.

Don't do it. Stop punishing yourself.

I just wanted to add some input on the new update. I love the new Sortie bosses so far! They are challenging and encourage players to try different strategies and party compositions. You love to see it!

I am glad to see everyone struggling to adjust to being in danger if they are near the mob, and unable to simply spam Savage Blade till it dies.

That requires having savage blade, that's the only problem

Please do something about all the Saphires and nq earrings in my inventory. Any exchange for more Galli would be appreciated if you aren't planning to use them in the future for something else.

Spamming WSs in general.

I like Sortie, but for me it's slow going. I'm a SMN main. Every time I go in, I basically run around and nab all the easy objectives and then kill stuff with trusts til the time runs out I can't do any of the other stuff like "kill 6 mobs with magic only" (because I need Trust and it would take forever even if I didn't) or the ones that require you to burst down mobs really fast, because without a GEO that's really just not possible (I have GEO as well, but minimal job points / no master level). So I don't get a lot of galliwhatever. I haven't even tried the bosses, because they aren't strictly speaking necessary, if I'm being honest with you. The people I know all have groups already and nobody I don't know seems to want a SMN. So I' do it solo. Thanks in part to the free stuff they gave us I've gotten what I want to +2, but apparently we're going to need to do sortie for the new special weapon line. So not sure if I'm going to bother with that. I still need to finish grinding the Omen farm floor for detritus to finish my relic augmentation.

Then go a different job? It's slow going regardless, but I wouldn't farm it solo on SMN.

It's the only job I've got that can do current content. And the only job I currently want empy+2 on. And you need the job you want the gear for.

I just really don't like these objectives that depend on high DPS because there are comparatively few ways to do them and you probably won't do them solo as trusts are becoming increasingly poor at anything other than mere survival.
