    Well it started out with one guy asking why his stone only gave him 10 minutes of time, and snowballed from there. I got tired of threads getting locked so I created this one. I was just gonna let it fade into obscurity but ppl keep bumping it and bringing up flawed arguments.

    I'm not even joking either, Unless there's some cap i'm unaware of, you could have, if you were hardcore enough, farmed up enough TEs to stay inside abyssea 24/7 since visions was released. Even through the japanese earthquake and any downtime due to updates.

    You keep explaining to me WHY the system is designed this way, and I've already admitted that I don't give a damn about any of that. If you can stay inside forever with TEs, you should be able to stay inside for 408 minutes with stones.

    I think that is the biggest sign of your problem... you aren't reading what's on your screen. An btw, nearly all of that post was copy/pasted from popular sources of info, one of which was SE's own website.

    Any restrictions on time are irrelevant once you realize that you can stay inside forever.
    And no, you can't stay in there forever. At leastthe average person couldn't. you'd have to continually farm enough TE to cover the time for you to stay in there while you slept, went to work and/or school, etc.--which may be evidence if a bigger problem if you are dedicating that much time to stay in abyssea. Eventually, the server would shutdown for maintenance too, which would also burn down time as well....sometimes up to 11 hours in one shot.

    So while it may be theoretically possible to saty in ther 24/7/365....I doubt any single normal person would do that.

    This again shows how little you've really been paying attention to the posts. Next I almost expect to hear you saying there should be no time restrictions on any BCNM/ENM/KSNM/KCNM/HKCNM, Mission fight, Dynamis, Limbus, Nyzul Isle.....all the way to even Besieged.

    Abyssea was meant to be, to some extent, specialized content. Other then level 30+ and restrictions built into the Visitant Status system, there is really nothing to seperate it from other content like traveling to a WotG zone.

    You haven't posted anything original in a while, which is why I glossed over the massive wall of text. I've read and responed to every post in this thread. You are the only person who doesn't seem to understand my position.

    And no, you can't stay in there forever. At leastthe average person couldn't. you'd have to continually farm enough TE to cover the time for you to stay in there while you slept, went to work and/or school, etc.--which may be evidence if a bigger problem if you are dedicating that much time to stay in abyssea.

    I don't think anyone would either, but again that is irrelevant. YOU COULD DO IT. The 'restrictions' you speak of don't actually restrict anyone or anything.


    This again shows how little you've really been paying attention to the posts. Next I almost expect to hear you saying there should be no time restrictions on any BCNM/ENM/KSNM/KCNM/HKCNM, Mission fight, Dynamis, Limbus, Nyzul Isle.....all the way to even Besieged.
    If I could stay inside of BCNMs forever by farming TEs, then yes I'd argue that I should also be able to extend my stay by adding more orbs (if orbs weren't R/E). You seem to be missing the point entirely. Those events are designed to be limited, abyssea is not. (EDIT: This came out wrong, Abyssa may have been originally designed to be limited, but that is no longer the case)

    Abyssea was meant to be, to some extent, specialized content. Other then level 30+ and restrictions built into the Visitant Status system, there is really nothing to seperate it from other content like traveling to a WotG zone.
    I'm afraid i don't understand the comparison. You're saying that abyssea is just another zone? Is there any other zone where I need an entry item, and have to continually fight monsters to stay inside? (You've already mentioned dynamis/limbus/etc.)
