    And yet somehow...

    I am honestly scared to death that 9/10 thats what we're going to get. FFXI + random has never worked out well and it was only popular because we had no other means of getting good gear if we weren't in a serious endgame linkshell. Now that abyssea and Magian Trials are out does anybody do fairy augments or tab augments, or do the final fights to the mini expansions for a shot at well-augmented gear? The only thing I can think of that worked out were interim dominion weapons if you don't want to do a magian and certain armors - the curepotency body is one of the few I can think of that was a genuine success as a fulltime peice.

    If we have to log in daily to get better rewards, I really do hope that the higher amount of points used gets you some pretty nice stuff, especially if this is going to be some incentive to play more. If its just elixers and logs *again* nobody is going to pay it any mind. I just really wish SE would get it through that people don't like rolling the lottery ball for a 5% chance at something good - they like working towards a goal. The post-abyssea trend though seems to be creating rarity through things you can repeat often but 90% of the time you get garbage, instead of world spawns and placeholder style NM's. See? Now ffxi is *casual friendly*!

    THAT BEING SAID: I understand those might be just placeholders for now since they haven't had the time to make new items yet, but as far as random FFXI history goes, it doesn't look good.
