Update notes/teasers?

:O!!!!

Me gusta.

Now if only Voidwatch didn't have a horrible drop system...

I'd say the drop system is fine just need a way to "pool" a drop you don't want/need.

As it is it is a very earnest attempt to reward every player individually, but falls on its ass when you realize Career-WHM A has gotten 4 Radiant F mails while the WAR/DD hasn't gotten 1. The Ability to pool a drop you don't want/need won't break the damn event

So with the update notes, will there be info on the test servers and when they go live? :x

Why, if it isn't exactly who I've been waiting to blast with one of my many rays. Watch it, Zorak!

My first thought was "I wonder how that thing would taste if pan-fried in olive onion with some yellow onions."

My second thought was "I'm really fat, huh?"

The pendulous nature of my man-breasts aside, it's cool that the unique and threatening monsters in Voidwatch actually look unique and threatening.

Yay, they're bringing back the mantis mob! I forgot which other games had that, I think FFVIII and FFIX did? I'm not sure anymore, it's been a while XD

And it doesn't look like a scyther, it looks like a preying/praying mantis that got hit with godzilla juice. <_<

Personally I don't mind it.
It means I have a chance at getting some gear for myself, without having to share it and wait my turn for my own.
If they let us pool drops, I doubt they'll keep the same drop rates for anything good. An LS could take 18 people for 18 chances to get 1 person the item, etc.

WHAT?! FFXI Starship Troopers GO!!!!!!!!!

I'm not asking to remove the current system, You can still enjoy hoarding your own drops.

I meant that, as it stands, I feel that pooling should be an option regardless... No fun doing an event 20 times for 1 item you never get, when the other guy has tossed 4 of them. It should not be mandatory but how is using a Linkshell to help a linkshell member something that should be considered against?

This is why I suggest a "Token" system, instead of "HERE WHM MAIN WITH ONLY MAGE JOBS, TAKE SOME RADIANT MAIL FOR FUNZIES"
