ATTN DEVS and COMMUNITY REPS: Mythics

[Staren]

Relics are 170 million gil at 10k per currency. I wouldn't call that "easy".

I also have a feeling that the last relic trial will be something similar to the 1500 plates needed for the current Empyrean trial, especially if SE plans to take another look at the relic stats at 99 like they previously said.

You apparently havent done dreamworlds dyna, heck even regular new dyna we were getting 200 ish coins a run consistently. <90 days is still drastically easier than almost a year.

[Update Details]

- The accuracy of area of effect attacks striking the weak point of a monster that is not being targeted has been reduced in the following zones.

Dynamis - Valkurm / Dynamis - Buburimu
Dynamis – Qufim / Dynamis - Tavnazia

I'm sorry what were you saying?

While it was a stupid move it actually does nothing. Yes you prefer Mythics in all their retarded to get glory, however, you can still get a ton of currency a night without AoE spamming.

Keep tryin.

Yes but not at the "omg currencies are falling like the rain in Pashhow Marshlands" level it was before.

You can bet your ass that "reduced" really means "damn close to zero"

COP dynamis was intended to give people a harder path to get more currencies in a given amount of time, not to make it so easy to get currencies that you can duo a relic in a month. This nerf shows that SE has no intention of allowing the latter to happen. They want the difficulty at a certain level and they will keep on nerfing it till it's where they want it. Tanaka is back and easy mode FFXI is over.

A) You'll notice I mentioned getting near 200 coins a run regularly in normal zones which you'll also notice wasnt in that fix.

B) They only nerfed AoE farming JA farmers so far are reporting no loss in currency/run. So it is still possible for an adaptive group to report similar if not the same numbers from CoP Zones.

If people are getting the same number of coins from COP zones that they have been getting from old dynamis zones for the past 6 months then the price isn't going to fall now is it?

If you do old zones at one run a day you can finish a relic in about 3 months. Cop Zones was making runs worth double to triple that amount. So 400-600 coins a run regularly. It would have made a relic doable in a month to two. Three months is about how long we spent working on our first empyreans before the level cap raises and only for a few hours everyday not a full blown 56 hours a week working on it. To be honest in my opinion Relics are as easy to get as the first tier of Empyreans just doing cities. CoP zones are still giving 300+ coins a run to JA procers which means you can still finish a relic for 2hrs a day in less than three months. Yes Relics are still a joke to get now even with the nerf. Mythics on the other hand are only getting harder and harder to get. Prices in bazaar for alex are regularly 20k now and you still need twice the coins and you're lucky to find 100 alex floating around in bazaars once every couple of days outside the overabundance of coins floating around. Please do the new dyna content before you call a relic hard, I made that mistake and then at someone's request I started trying dyna before bashing how it wasnt better than old dyna. At this point we're looking at pumping out relics shortly after we finish the mythic which is sadly at least 6months from now but we'll be able to get 4-5 relics in the time it took us to make a mythic, and we'll still have time to make empys due to how short dyna is. This only exemplifies the ease of relics/empys to mythics.

No normal person is going to to do dynamis 7 days a week for three straight months.

If you do then you are basement dweller and should quit FFXI for your own good.

Putting aside 2 hours a day to do dynamis is being a basement dweller?

You realize that exact argument can be turned right back at Duties, Tasks and Deeds being extremely retarded, right?

Who's going to do 160 minutes of a combination of Nyzul Isle, Assault, Einherjar and Salvage 7 days a week for 10 months? Granted you can drop Nyzul Isle/Assault - and thus 30 minutes - off after about 4 months. Einherjar isn't a daily event (but it probably will be), but Salvage alone is 100 minutes a day - only 20 off Dynamis - and you'd be doing it for well over triple the time you would Dynamis.
