STATIC.

I still hate 'random' things, regardless of the means they are acquired by.

Quick poll/questionnaire.

First> Is anyone going to bother doing this if it turns out static upgrades are crap?

Second> Will you do it if they're just very situational armor?

Third> If you answered no to the above, Why do you want Static, when a good chance it will be useless? instead of random Where some of us might actually work to get the best results from it? Benefiting from the system.

Just curious, Some people seem quite happy with their Full Perle/aurore, they've made it clear even static upgrades will be difficult to obtain, Will anyone voting static even bother with the time/effort to get the +1 version, to upgrade to +2, if its only a little better than AH alternatives? How about if its just situational and not even better than Empyrean+2?

This is a good example of majority rule, minority rights. The fact that those of us wanting random get to voice it is us expressing our right to object the masses, the 'right' to the minority with the majority 'rule' coming in the form that the results from this will most likely be static. Anywho, I understand their reasons but I still find them to be shortsighted. SE do the masses a bone and give us random, they may not thank you now but in time they will come to understand why it's better. You know at one point it was the masses who understood the earth was the center of the universe while Galileo sat in a jail cell. I guess I would play Copernicus in this scenario. Wow that went a bit wayward. >.> /fail

Static for the love of God, this game has far too much random in it as is, even getting the gear requires a random drop.

Static, no matter the method (Well, unless is a total nightmare with a crappy reward).

Random.

Most of the "random" augments and such you've given us, mean that 95% of the time you will come out with Earth Resist +2, and 5% of the time you'll get what you wanted, except at +1 instead of +5.
The community seems to want more static stats, with good reason.
However, you have to also make the stats WORTHWHILE, or nobody will ever do the augments.

And this is why we're doomed to crappy static stats. When I was doing augs for gear I got good stats 95% of the time with pure NQ crap 5% of the time. Of course my Synergy isn't low level. It's capped, like it should be. But the point is that people will buy scraps or tatters for 30,000 to 100,000 gil no problem because you are pretty much guaranteed to have something good come out of it with capped Synergy skill.


Let's not hide from the truth here. Everyone that says static is just saying 'I don't want to level Synergy and have no idea how it works to make an educated vote' or 'I leveled Synergy and did the Synergy augments but because I never obtained the very best possible aug ever conceived to mankind, regardless that I got some pretty good ones in it's place, I vote static'

So like, instead of getting random with good augments with that 'very best aug ever conceived to mankind' as being a possibility to obtain, we're going to get static that will have the good augs as the best static augs and 'very best aug ever conceived to mankind' won't even exist. That's basically what it will boil down to. But everyone can keep on trying to vote STATIC AND throw your 2 cents in about how it should be great augs to boot. SE might cave in, when bugards fly.
