Suggestions: Quality of Life Stuff and other suggestions

Hopefully the right person reads this.

Can we have a 2nd KI added to the defeat of EACH sortie boss that can be used from the sortie entrance to allow us to fight ONLY the boss that we have selected that we have the KI for? The reward would only give GALLIMAUFRY at the same rate that we get currently and you would lose the new KI added when ENTERING not when defeating. This would include individual KIs for Aminon and (Hard Mode) Aminon. It would allow us to generate more gallimaufry without changing the way Sortie works as a whole and make PRIME WEAPONS more accessible.

Thank you for reading and consideration!

Add support-support jobs
i.e. 99THF/59DNC/29WAR
Just another little extra creative versatile power boost in this late age of the game lol
Alternatively, let us assign extra abilities/job traits we've unlocked from other jobs, kind of like XIV or how BLU spells work.

Please allow PlayOnline IDs to be transferred OFF a SquareEnix ID so that it may be used with another SquareEnix ID.

I could think of a couple reasons why someone would want to "branch off" and get their own SE ID if sharing one with family members. As it is, they would need to start from scratch as I understand it.

Square Enix Accounts were not designed for families. They belong to the individual that established them and no one else. If people wanted their accoutns to be seperate, they shouldn't have linked them in the first place, as all POL IDs linked to one account can only be paid for by that one person. I haven't heard of anyone successfully doing this but you could petition SE support to do this on a case by case basis. It shouldn't be a regular feature though, because sharing accounts is a terms violation.

So as a serious question, why did you even bother responding to this? Unless you actually work for SE, to respond this way added nothing.

Regardless, despite your response, the option should exist. Jump through some hoops, sure ok, but to send what would likely be an empty petition. It's easier to just unsubscribe and move on from the game. Not sure how many people would be willing to start over after losing (not retiring or walking away from) their main character made off of a decision they possibly cannot control.

As an example, parents/kids playing the game together...kid(s) would likely NOT have their own SE ID. Logistically, the parent would likely want to create and control one billing account, not 2, 3, or 4 (which the PO IDs take that place...). If the kid becomes die hard idiots like us, they might want to...you know...move from their parents at some point (hopefully) but still play their character. Doubt the parents would still continue to pay for that though it's possible I suppose. I wouldn't...

sorry you feel that way. But if you don't understand why I responded, then there's not much I can do to explain it to you.

It's not SE's responsibility. You're told up front in the terms of service that you aren't supposed to share square enix accounts, which is what you're doing when you put multiple POL IDs owned by different people under the same SE account. The option doesn't exist because it's not a situation people are supposed to be in the first place.

I entirely agree that SE support staff should be empowered to help people in this situation, but it shouldn't just be an option in account management. The only thing that needs to be there is a warning when linking PlayOnline IDs not to link POL IDs that you aren't the direct owner of. Then when they aren't a minor anymore, all they need to do is supply their own payment method and they're all set.

Even in the case of parents and minors, the parent should establish a seperate SE account for the minor, rather than make another POL account linked to their own SE account. Then when they are an adult, they can simply cancel sub, and reactivate with their own payment method and everything's gucci.

This has been answered numerous times by the developers, they will not do it. They would have to built a system to clone the specific character data from the database and put it into a new account, it would be a lot of money and work and they don't want to do it.

Just level a new character on a new account, you can power level and help them.

The main reasons it won't happen are it would cost money to pay a programmer to make this complicated system (when there are far better things they could pay them to do, when they are allowed to have one from the XIV team), very few people would use it so it's not financially viable, and RMT would abuse it.

Remove blaze spikes and similar spells from Domain Invasion, they cause massive amounts of lag with the graphics effects on the spike effect going off on every person hitting the monster on Asura.

Increase Daily Tally for goblin mystery box from 10 to 40, 10 is too low and players run out of points.

You want players to have gobbie box mules, so having a system where they run out of points and are incentivized into unsubscribing them isn't a good idea. Have the increase be linked to Rhapsodies progress

Maybe link the increase to rhapsodies key items.

You can trade items for additional tally. All it takes is a few days of forgetting or not bothering to check and it accumulates faster than you think. And that's aside from the fact that you're ... supposed... to be able to run out of points. Personally, I can't:


It would take me over 2 years, even if I didn't recieve more daily tally in the meantime, to use up all these points (only on the special dial). And it would take many, many hours of opening any other dial repeatedly.
So no, the daily tally does not need to be increased. You can get extra special dial opens via dial keys. If I got 40 a day, this number above would be 4x higher.

The gobbie box is literal free stuff, it is meant to be a little bonus over time for playing. we don't "need" to have it at all, but it's a nice little bonus. Multiplying it by 4 is absurd and unnecessary. It would also enter RMT exploitability territory, as you can vendor items from the medicine dial for not insignificant gil. And where'd you get this idea SE "wants" players to have gobbiebox mules? who the heck creates characters (and pays more per month) just to use the gobbie box? I can't see a universe in which that's worth it. Sure, if you're already using those mules for other things, maybe. I myself only play a handful of jobs with regularity and don't really use mules. I have one, but it's been inactive/not paid for, for longer than I can remember lol.
