[dev1003] Abyssea Adjustments (more Empyrean whining, whaaaat??? /facepalm)

[Daremo]

Then you should probably bill them as "New Battlefields and, oh yeah, seals", rather than "More ways to get seals! and some gear and junk". How you present information can be as important as what the information actually is.

As it is you've painted a nearly negligible aspect as being the basis for these new battlefields existence. No one is going to be flocking to these things for a chance at 0~1 seals, so that should have been a side note, not the main thrust.

Sorry you feel that it was misleading the first time, Daremo. Each time we post official info, we strive to present all the details accurately. As always, we'll keep an eye out in the future to make sure things are put in the proper perspective.

Hopefully the post from Camate will go a long way to avoid any confusion going forward!

As seals currently weigh heavy on the minds of many, I can understand the desire to set that out front. Such things happen. Please continue to do your best, as I, and hopefully the playerbase, will try to read your words clearly and without misapprehension. Thank you for your hard work.

Because pre-75... excludes... 75. Pre-80 Endgame is ... 75 Endgame. It's not difficult.

Abyssea is also nowhere near as bad as HNM, old/middle-aged Dynamis, Sea, and Sky were. Hell, I would not even call Abyssea "bad". The only time you see NMs being "stolen" are when mentally handicapped morons manage to wipe to things and try to Apoc zombie them for an hour. People actually team up when they don't want X or Y seals. That shit would have never happened pre-Abyssea in any sort of Endgame environment (Read: shitty social shells and events don't count).

Is there really any reason to imply that people are mentally handicapped morons? Do you know these people that you can assume that? Maybe they are, maybe they aren't, it certainly doesn't give you the right to call them such. Please keep this kind of verbage out of your posts. This is just a game when all is said and done.

So, new battlefields? Sounds like our Kindred's Crest and High Kindred's Crests are finally going to have a purpose.

LMFAO 40 k crests for seal u can't use i see the flaming comin now hahaha

Empyrean +2 items will be made obtainable from notorious monsters in additional Abyssea areas as follows:

* Heroes of Abyssea area items will also appear in Scars of Abyssea.
* Scars of Abyssea area items will also appear in Vision of Abyssea.

this could be good ovni or brair and other red trigger mobs (ki pops) needed to spawn end bosses dropping seals or +2 items might actually get more people together easier for pops for glavoid etc

Realize that the developers have some wish to have something to unveil, so they don't want to list every single detail of a planned whatever. By the same token, if the developers wish feedback from the playerbase to help flesh out ideas and the like prior to implementation the playerbase needs enough detail to comment intelligently on what is in the works.

It's a difficult line to walk, I know, and I don't envy anyone the task.

[Fyreus]

I hope they have some really good stuff planned outside abyssea

I'm just wondering how a game can have balance when they put things like weaknesses in the game and only allow a few jobs to proc every weakness where others can proc only a few.

SE is working on fixing it now, but did they not think about it when they first thought of the idea?
