New Roadmap and FFXI's direction

[Suirieko]

Can do a salvage run in 50 minutes, unlike Dynamis or VW(most of the time). Not only that, but unless the level 99 Emp is amazing, there will be no market. There's only one right now because there are rich players who don't mind dropping 150m for 2 stats and 3 damage. I only know of 5 people willing to buy plates on Asura. There are 30ish Ukon owners, don't get me started on all the kannagi and masamunes.

As for saying there is no market for Mythics, they have several of the best weapons in the game. Ryunohige, Conqueror, Ken-Kon-Ken, Yagrush, Nirvana are all clearly, or at the very least debatably better than their relic/empyrean counterparts. The demand would be there if Assault/Ichor/Nyzul costs went down significantly, as those are what keep a lot of people from diving into mythics.

Actually, the biggest road block in Mythic weapon wasn't the assault, Ichor, or Nyzul costs, its' the 30,000 Alexandrites.

100K Ichrons are (Actually I SHOULD say were) easy to get if you're simply in an einherjar LS. I got 100K ichrons pretty quick because of this.

I wont' deny that right now it's a bigger issue with Ichrons because no one cares for Einherjar, so I will say this need to be changed.

Redoing all 50 Assaults shouldn't be a problem if you can make a static. Assaults should be much easier to do now than ever. So even that isn't a problem, and same thing can be said for Nyzul.

Also, You still need assault points in order to do Salvage, so this goes hand in hand with working on Alexandrites.

ZNM is still a significant issue because hardly anyone does it, however, making the three ZNM kings trophies 100% is a HUGE help in this.

Sorry I meant t3 Jueno and zilart. I confused myself when jumping around the tiers when i was talking about VW part 1. Although, the fact that I mentioned Uptala should have clarified what tier I was speaking about. Incoming ninja edit :P

If you haven't done a ton of ToAU content, like quite a bit of people these days, then being able to buy alexandrites isn't as bad as 9 months of assault

See, they great thing about being anon, is you can lie about everything you have and have done.

The down side is, you have no credibility so people are unlikely to believe you.

No the great thing about being anon is not being harassed. Disclosing information that can be tracked back to you can only lead to tears. Call it the 4chan reflex.

Only if you have something to hide

If you aren't lying and making crap up, no one has a reason to harass you.

I'm sure there are people who don't care for me, even out right hate me, but i've never, ever been harassed in game.

In addition to an empyrean I have a Mandau and I'm halfway to completing my second relic. Not going to name the other two because it might identify me..

And yes I have done VW. You can spam the mob all day and getting lights isn't as hard as people make it out to be if you bring enough jobs to cover everything and people communicate. It will be even easier once the changes SE has talked about take effect.

Maybe if popping it ate your Stratum Abyssite and you had to re climb the tiers to pop it again you would have something actually worth complaining about. But really you're just whining because VW isn't herp derp easy mode like Abyssea was.

I have 2 mythic95,3relic95,1empy95 and 5 empy90 but i wont name because it might identify me..


(i only have 1 85+1 80 empys)

What SE needs to do is release a new Expansion with new areas, maybe jobs. I've been playing off and on since 04 and my current character is now on its 3rd year and with only the three add-on missions left to finish, I am starting to become bored. Farming empys and what not is starting to becoming kind of pointless to me with nothing to do afterwords. After all what is the point of having highend gear if you are not really going to use it. Voidwatcher was fun for a while and I didn't really do them for the drops, but just to do something new/interesting, but after the first few runs it just felt like anything else aby related. I wouldn't mind doing ToAu events again, but no one seems to be interested in them anymore. I am hoping that the new updates coming up will bring some excitement besides the lvl 99 break and the pointless exp grind that comes with it or the Voidwatcher update, maybe The Last Stand, whatever it is will bring something new and fresh to this aging game, but as it is I think my character and I are stretching our last few months, and when the time comes I will miss XI and all the adventures I had, especially when back in 04 my rdm hit 27-30 and learned Invisible, I decided to go explore and was one of the few young adventures to see Behemoth, wish I still had that old account with that Snapshot lol.

Given the emo THF routine and eerily similar arguments I've seen between here, Alla, and BG, I imagine they go by Lobivopis on the second and the handle here on the third. Give him enough time and I'm sure we'll be lectured on how the Skinner Box is the bestest thing for MMOs ever if his like of the Heavy Metal Plate system at current isn't any indication already. Also, Thief's Knife.

I won't drop FFXI for FFXIV because I can only play via dialup. Satellite stinks for FFXI and it won't be any better for FFXIV.
