"THe Development Team Does Not Currently Have Plans Too..."

Except that I'm talking about changing the requirements, not the content. The content would be just as "Fun" as it was before the change.

So are you talking about changing the requirements or are you about QoL improvements?

That's what I mean. I'm not saying they should cut it to 1,000 alex and a win each in nyzul/einherjar. I'm just saying that the event needs QoL changes. Double Ichor days would be nice. They wouldn't suddenly make building a mythic into a one day affair. But they're nice for the guy who is already doing it. Allowing people to solo Nyzul / einherjar isn't going to allow a guy to build his weapon twice as fast. It just cuts down the chatlog spam and wasted time. The guy is still going once per day. But now, he's not bugging everyone about it. Those sort of things don't make the quest so easy that everyone will do it, they just make is less horrible so that a few more people will do it. Small changes make a world of difference.

And while were on the subject of QOL, isn't it high time that they did away with the inventory clogging and just made zeni accumulate every time you took a picture like cruor/plasm/exp does when you kill a mob? Do we really need the inventory clogging convoluted system of trading in actual items for points? Even with all these new bags, holding all that stuff is annoying and unnecessary. The item pics used for pankration should be a separate device / system entirely.

I agree that they can adjust a few things to make the process a little less grindy but the requirements are fine as they are, notwithstanding the Alexandrite supply drying up quite a bit. That market will stabilize as more people start farming Salvage for gil again.

It's kind of six of one, half dozen of the other. It doesn't really matter if they lower the amount of tokens / ichor etc. required, or they just make them easier to farm by removing the one tag a day, three person requirements or increasing the drop rate. It's all the same outcome.

I'm curious as to how that will pan out too. Prices already seem to be starting to climb some. I don't honestly expect a lot more people to start farming salvage now though. I expect that the bulk of the people farming it will continue to be people who plan on keeping the alex. Prices will probably get pretty high unless some new cheat is found.
