Since no one seems to have posted yet: Final LB fight

[ShadowHeart]

didnt you hear they gonna let you brew the final limit break in 12 months!!!!.... "insert sarcasm here"

I'd also like to point out that, since 76-95 I have never been in a rush to get the new caps, I have an 85 almace and several other unfinished empyreans, I do every event that SE offers on XI, yet when new caps come out i'm one of the last to bother with it. Simply because I always have other things to do and I don't like rushing or feeling like I'm forced to do something right this minute just becasue everyone on the server is getting the new cap and then go xp all my jobs, and then skill up, etc. My mule had 95 a week before my main did and I played them both regularly.

The only reason I will do this new cap early is if my ls or friends are doing it and there's a spot open, if not I won't even bother at first unless i'm bored, I don't mind waiting, I'm patient.

Please make the final Genkai battle a difficult and challenging fight (harder than Maat used to be at 66). I may not be able to win it on the 1st, 2nd or the 5th try, but when I do it would be an empowering achievement and actually make a meaningful experience in obtaining the highest level.

Easy and boring tasks that you just walk through without a second thought mean nothing to the player, no matter how much NPCs try to spin it that you've attained a new level of power. Easy tasks are a passive experience, like watching TV, it is not for a game that engages you.

SE said:
We have seen feedback from those that would like a battle and those that think a battle is unnecessary. As a result of looking over everyone’s opinions, we decided it would be good to create a battlefield that wasn’t as tough as the Maat fight, but have you all take on a slight challenge to differentiate this as the final limit break quest.

I say:
Funny, most people are at the 95 cap and beat maat, so really, what was the problem?

you cant make a game easy prey and then expect them users to remain around forcing them into group battles when half dont even know their jobs...

farming the lb1 items from eldiem or fighting way all the way through as a group in garlaige to get bomb coals as level 50's is come and gone.... how many times i see a new person shouting in PJ to get help with lb 1 or lb2 /3 even now and people just ignore them can u imagine what its going to be like at 95 for final break if they make it hard for a group at this level to do??? in 3-6 months time there will be a group 99's.... and 95's ... and the ones who charged people to get others who dont have a good ls or friends in game to get to 99

this would be great battles for elitists and the anal who need all weapon skills me included to do the quest to get new weapon skills but not for new people to hit 99

1. If you seen them shouting why didn't you offer them help, if not right then at least set up a time to help them, that's what I do.
2. You beat maat right, these people only went in with 3 people and it's one attempt, heaven forbid that you don't win on the first try.

I'm not coming at you personally, I'm just using what you posted in order to better agrue my view point, I don't see anything wrong with this fight, it is supposed to be epic, it is 99, it shouldn't be achieved on the first or second try by everyone. I was such a noob when I hit 70, before abyssea, that I lost to Maat two times on whm before I beat him on the third time. I took me a very long time to get help for G1, but you know what, I'm still here. I leveled sub jobs when I couldn't get help to farm g1 items.

One can not say I was an 'elitist' when I was capped at 50, or losing to Maat at 70 on whm. I've always enjoyed a challenging game. When I first started to play the game it was hard, and it was even hearder to others before I joined, without FOV, with train mobs in certain areas, etc. Nothing about me has changed, AI've just gotten better at the game, does that make me an elistist because I want to do everything in the game, get everything, but enjoy a challenge getting there?

o this is so funny, all the elite morons though they would be able to stand around jeuno as level 99 with their what you don't have an emp weapon and your only 95, wow your no where near as good at this game as i am, i'm so cool.

if you want a challange go solo it or do it on the test sever

I spent weeks at the 50 cap, until i got help. It didnt discourage me, I levelerd my sub jobs. It goes beyind your stupid comment, it's about the future of the game and how everything in it has become pointlessly easy. You don't know what people think, stop assuming. I want a challenge for the final cap, I want the auto-rr removed from WOE, I think you shouldn't be able to beat 99cap on the first try, I don't mind being 95 till Feburary if they released the cap for 99 next week and it takes me two months till I win.

I want 99 to mean something, just because YOU cant wait, YOU have to have it and can't live up to the challenge doesn't make it right. Nothing in the game is/was that hard, it all takes patience, all we are asking for is a feel good feeling that beating Maat gave us. Don't you remeber how you felt when you first beat him? I do and I want to feel that way again. It's not about sitting in Jueno at 99, it's about feeling good that Wow, i did it that was awesome.

I promise that you will have your 99 way before I get mine, I was 90 forever, my mule had 95 before I even considered getting it on my main. Again, standing around jueno, that's what you think. We want a challenge, we want 99 to mean something. It doesn't mean anything now, and it also shows that ANYTHING new is going to be equally disappointing. More auto-rr, more watered down content because people have to win the first time they play something.

Its even more funny when people that can't spell or use correct grammar call others morons...

nothing personal taken concerned i actually am one of the few who gives free tele's and helps the new comers do the limit breaks i gave up endgame ls's few months back and actually just spend time in social ls's helping new members and up and comers progress and try new things in the game. if we dont teach and help new players as we go then sooner or later there wont be new blood and nothing left for us to do... personally if brings me back to the day remembering the fun and excitement of when i achieved the goals they are attaining. who knows what the future will entail i just think that the option to do it solo should be available and there will be people like myself at 99 who will drag noobs through with bst smn rdm etc for just sheer enjoyment of reliving the battle. But unfortunately in my current server there are many mercenaries who will merely seek to profit from the people who are not patient enough to fight the battle as there are not enough people at their current level to fight it with them with the appropriate cookie cutter jobs.
