    Alrighty, I have a couple answers to some questions I am seeing in this thread.

    Dropped items/point items

    The items you can receive via drops will differ from those that you can obtain by exchanging Legion points. Apologies if it was misconstrued from previous posts that they would be the same items. Essentially even if you lose a lotting battle to obtain an item, by participating in the battle and saving up points you can get a reward.

    Cool down timer for re-entry
    There is actually no cool down timer and as long as the area is free and you are in possession of the key-item needed to enter, you can repeat this content again and again.

    Also, in regards to the specific questions on point acquisition, I am still checking with the development team and should have an answer pretty soon.

    So, the rewards are a dichotomy, exactly like Einherjar. I wonder if the same developer primarily designed both events, since they're so similar. Not that the similarity is a bad thing. Einherjar was one of my favorite things back at 75.

    I can see it Now only 1 group can be inside at a time, 4 hours after update Sauromugue Champaign will be closed down for Emergency Maintenance. and moogles will be Stationed around the area telling us to play nice. not trying to be mean to you Camate. Just we've seen this happen many times before.

    Can you Send word to the Dev team now to expect this. as awesome as no cool down timer is its going to cause issues. Maybe make its 1 -2 hour cool down to help ease the congestion atleast for the first week.

    Or perhaps it could have a dynamic timer system. If there is no congestion, there is no cool down on entry. If there are so many groups in an area that people are fighting to get in, there will be a timer of one hour to reenter, with flexible amounts of time in between depending on how full the areas are.

    Please make all the items obtainable through points.

    In the end, this doesn't surprise me. You might as well ask to buy E. Body through ampoules of therion ichor. It's just not gonna happen.

    Legion points will probably be used to buy level 99 versions of perle/teal/aurore, and maybe some more random items like an equivalent to the Morgana's Choker or Omega Ring of Ein. You will have to fight the tough HNM's for the better stuff.

    I just need to say this is a very poor design decision. I was actually really excited for this content when I thought everything was practically equalized (though I would expect the LP items to cost way more in propotion.) I'm not a fan of a chance of a chance of an item (like anything in Bhaflau Remnants) especially in content that will essentially require 18+ people.

    To the DEVs, please do as camate's original post says and have it so the drops and the legion point items are the same!
