There is a good reason the alliance you were in looked useless. It wasn't that one guy.
Still being as contradictory as ever.

Also, you may want to think about what you just said:

Unless you send your BLMs off to run around the zone (which most already do, especially emph hunting in some zones), you'll still have overpowering ruby which we do know, especially if you're a vet to Abyssea, red chests can cap off quickly and if all you get are red chests and no TEs you end your party pretty quickly, especially if you're the type to use a keyer or actually help out new players levels who won't have 100+ minutes to blow.

Anyone with an emp worth their salt will kill everything quickly.
