    a suggestion i made on FFXIAH forum :

    square-enix will make it easy to please all the mass of players
    but as mentioned earlier we will loose the pleasure to get a real challenge and a special last instant like the maat fight was

    there's something square could do !!!

    after this last genkai ( for the mass of people) adding a last challenge @ 99 versus a master of our own job

    for example for sam a fight versus noillurie
    for drk a fight against zeid etc etc ...

    the fight would be hardcore and will give you a special item 99 for your job or a new job ability

    and for hardcorehardcore gamers finishing fights against the 20 heroes with the 20 jobs will allow you to gain a mega special item like : maat cap II

    what do you think about it ?

    I like this idea.
    A Final Showdown at lvl 99 for anyone up for the challenge, and a chance to win an exclusive job abiltiy for that job you fight for, for the successful completion of a very difficult challenge.

    But I think getting acsses to this fight should be a challenge as well.
    A Quest to prove that you are ready for the fight.

    I think this would win the hearts of the ppl that want a greater challenge.

    I think that is a great suggestion, and the quest to get there is also a nice touch.

    I'm not sure if a JA is appropriate, I think a lot of people would complain over you getting a JA over some piece of gear.

    Personally would like the JA myself.

    Edit: Also, a major problem with the JA idea (same for gear too, but more so for JA) is that if the JA/gear doesn't please the masses that job won't really ever do the challenge. SE is known to not make everything equal in upgrade power among the jobs when releasing updates like this.

    dnc was laila : what about lilisette or a mayakov special appearance lol ?

    blu was Raubahn : a new fight vs raubahn where he will release his final soulflayer form ? or Azima from campaign battle

    sch was Gunther (Schultz ) : this one isnt easy but it could be Maruna-Kurina the sch freelancer hero we can see in campaign battles

    some ideas for other jobs :

    sam : tenzen ? noillurie ? gilgamesh ?
    drk : zeid ? Duskraven ? Fonove ?
    whm : pieuje ? ferreous coffin ?
    rdm : Rainemard
    warrior : volker ? Xonia ?
    corsair : Luzaf
    puppet : asphmau
    monk : maat ? degenhard ? prishe ?
    black mage : shantoto ? ajido majurido ? Kayeel-Payeel ?
    summoner : karuha baruha
    ninja : Kupalu-Harupalu ? lion ? Kagetora ?
    thief : Putori-Tutori ? Nanaa Mihgo ? aldo ?
    paladin : trion ? Kilhwch ? Cerane I Virgaut ?
    beastmaster : Choh Moui ? Lhu Mhakaracca ? Rongo-Nango ?
    bard : Terounalivet ? Lewenhart ?
    ranger : Elivira ? Ghebben ? Perih Vashai ? Semih Lafihna
    dragoon : Dzhau Yaam ? our own wyvern ? Achtelle ?

    Square-enix could even make it a big event for the community and make us vote for our favorite opponent for each job. and after that prepare quests and last fights according to our votes

    SE said:
    We have seen feedback from those that would like a battle and those that think a battle is unnecessary. As a result of looking over everyone’s opinions, we decided it would be good to create a battlefield that wasn’t as tough as the Maat fight, but have you all take on a slight challenge to differentiate this as the final limit break quest.

    I say:
    Funny, most people are at the 95 cap and beat maat, so really, what was the problem?

It encourages you to explore the whole breadth of content rather than asking you to bumrush and bypass all the old content just so you can grind the newer content. This is a model used by other MMOs such as WoW, and while I don't have anything against people that enjoy this model, if I wanted to play an MMO with that model there are many, many games vast superior to XI in terms of mechanics and especially customer service that offer such a model.

    I'd suggest you suggest your suggestion in a dedicated suggestion thread, as it may go much un-seen here! ^^;


    As for the lowering of the difficulty level of the topic battle, I did see if coming and I do think it is a good choice. I don't think it should require 6 characters or so. I am up for a challenge but what it was is just too much, me thinks. I still disagree with the quest in itself a bit, though. Having a fight was also a rather obvious decision but I bet many expected Maat to be involved. I still might hope a little that it is Maat in disguise but eh, I don't know...

    As for alleviating congestion through time-sinks... I got only a few words of something many might call 'rage', and that is Treasures of Aht Urhgan missions and Mercenary Rank quests... I don't think I need to use any power words to describe the feelings towards 'waiting for the next day (earth- or/and game-time).

    Again, love the suggestion Thania. I hope SE gets to take a look at that and considers it. Something special at 99 would be nice to have.
