Some recommendations...

[Castanica]

I agree 100% with all of those suggestions Diavolo. Of course, those weren't the types of suggestions my comment was aimed at. I argue against making content easier, which a lot of people on these forums asks for. "Get rid of the proc system in VW all together" "Vagary bosses are too hard to pop/kill....why do we lose if just 1 person dies??""I wanna use my JPs I earned on BST for my MNK!" "Why do I have to do missions to get a CP bonus???" - these are the types of arguments my comment was aimed at.

It's fine for you, not for others. I bet you argued against the teleport system they added, the increased XP gain and trusts didn't you? We are not back in 2006 anymore, the vast majority of this games audience have jobs, families or just aren't so happy to do the same time wasting thing over and over and over for no other reason than to waste 10 hour for little reward.

Also my biggest gripe with people like you (no offence intended) is that if they did make it easier you would be all over it.

Let me ask you this, when they have double or triple CP do you refuse to get job points during these events? or do you grind them out as much as possible during? If they added a new CP ring that gave 10 charges at +500% would you refuse to get it because it's fine how it is? I already know the answer to these questions, which is why I can never take the people on issues like this seriously.

No, I did nopt argue against the teleport system. I DID gripe about the increased exp gain, but not vehemently. I had absolutely no issue with trusts or with all the content they allow you to use them in. I also did not complain about low-man HP scaling of mobs to support the fact that alliances just are not the norm anymore. I didn't complain about RoE or the linkshell concierge: boh things that made solo life easier for those casual, part time players. I do, however, complain when people lobby to have challenging aspects of the game taken away from those of us who do enjoy harder content. It doesn't mean that we "don't have a life." My linkshell has 3 event nights per week for 2-3 hours per night...thats it.

In answer to your question, I obviously don't grind away at the job points when we have events... I have 1 job mastered and am still about 300 away from mastering a second. My 3rd has less than 300 JP, my next has under 75 . Does that sound like someone who takes full advantage of the campaign? I challenge you to find any post of mine condemning any campaign the game has offered. I have no issue with short-term campaigns to offer bonuses. I do take issue with the game being simplified and un-enjoyable for my group of friends and those who play like we do, just as you do the same for yourself.

And to quote you, "its fine for you, not for others" when it comes to making the game easy mode. Don't attack me for supporting the opposite opinion . I have the right to make suggestions just as you do. Neither of us is "right" or "wrong." We each have a portion of the community that feels the same way as we do.

Don't play the victim, not long ago you were calling me a troll for having opinions you disagree with. I never said you can't have your opinion, I specifically said "it's ok for you" there are people that play this that would be ok if it took 2 years to master one job in apex parties. There are people on all sides of all extremes.

I want the curve into job points to be far more inviting, instead of how it is right now where it's
completely off putting. For most people getting 1k is laughable, let alone capping them.

Many of the campaigns act as temporary fixes to outdated content, especially where Voidwatch and Wildskeeper Reives are concerned. Why aren't more people pushing to bring permanent changes to that content instead so you can login and enjoy the game whenever you please rather than only during campaign periods?

Because I'm realistic, but yes, you're absolutely right. They are temporary fixes to content that otherwise is not rewarding enough for folks to play.

Yeah, I notice these "temporary fixes" has kept many of my friends, including myself, away from the game. Not in a bad way, but like it really does suck logging on and can't find anything worth doing....to only find yourself logging off after 30 minutes. Granted, we have events we do, but that runs dry after a while unless we find people that have a particular goal in mind that we can help with.
