PUP/BLU/COR AF1 set JPN midnight wait

[Rubicant82]

Okay I can't be the only one that thinks this needs to be changed...

When obtaining the 3 "crafted" pieces of armor for PUP/COR/BLU the JPN midnight wait needs to go... 1-7 game days I could handle that... but needed to wait until midnight in Japan seems a little excessive these days. The other AFs that come from chests in the original areas only req a key and if you take the time to farm all the keys you can (if you are lucky) find all the coffers and finish AF in a few hours... Why can't PUP/COR/BLU have the same ability? I mean why not make the "crafted" AF be available in a timely manor DEV TEAM THIS IS FOR YOU!!!!

Does anyone have input on this other then me?

May as well reduce it. Back in the day you could say that it was fine since you were going to possibly be using it for a while and would take that time to level into each new piece. Now the most action any of the pieces will see is as switch-ins after you briskly burn past the levels they become available. On the other hand, since getting the old AF has become little more than a minor bullet point on a completionist's checklist, I suppose the devs might not think it's worth the hassle to change the quest delay values.

You miss the point that most AF1 where obtained by opening coffer in congested zones like Garlaige Citadel.
So despite the fact that you buy you'r AF it really seems a bit outdated.

exactly the point is that you can farm up the pre TAoU AF1 quickly... where as this you are stuck to 24 hr waits IF you can get the crafting mats in the first place.
I gave up on some of the pieces out of sheer frustration (and respective cost) because lets face it one might use this as macro pieces... maybe

Having just finished my Corsair AF, I must agree that the 24 hour wait period is silly and detrimental. It adds nothing but unnecessary frustration. I'm ok with having to wait a certain number of in-game days, but forcing a 24 hour wait in real life is bad game design, and SE should feel bad about themselves for implementing it.
