Seriously devs - the balance

[Dazusu]

Like we asked for popped HNMs or something to ease the spawn conditions. The dev team trolled us with a 99 kindred seal requirement. That was pretty unnecessary.

I thought that was genius. I thought it would teach people to stop crying for easymode on absolutely everything. I thought wrong.

OK, this quote cannot go unanswered. "Easy Mode", my behind. Contrary to the mindless talking points your kind repeat like sheep, no one wanted the Black Belt handed to us on a silver platter. We simply wanted realistic access to the quest items needed. No more of this waiting for 1 spawn every 24 hours only to see some clown with a bot program claim it so he can charge ridiculous amounts of gil for the item. What S-E did in response was simply absurd and had no logical basis at all except for those who watch far too many karate movies and believe every player should climb Mount Everest, swim across the Atlantic, and run across the Sahara in order to get a small chance at these quest items.

I make no apologies for calling on S-E to make these quests and trials a lot more realistic. Abyssea killed off HNM linkshells and the politics that made them infamous. I am in no hurry to see them revived.
