I can't believe what I just read.
Shit, guys. Shit. This isn't 2005. You don't need 1% drop rates to keep people playing. Bumping that body piece to 10% - 15% wont immediately cap everyone on gear and cause them to quit out of boredom. People have several jobs to gear and tons of friends with several jobs to gear.
derp what if you could earn points from VW to spend on gear and earned titles from NMs? :/

Nah, you'd just be limited to rotations of SMNs for PD to simulate drinks and hoping that your buffed out the ass DDs are good enough to zerg down 1 NM every 2 hours before the PDs wear.
Heh, it basically seems not much if at all different from repeating those quests for Empyrean seals.
Repeat and time-sinks being the keywords, with little to no reward most of the times.
I agree that good items need work to be attained, but mindlessly repeating things, grinding if you will, isn't exactly fun and for the time being, Abyssea actually seems most balanced of all in that regard (not saying I exactly ever really liked Abyssea, or still do).
Funny that. ^^;
...or so the legend says.
I seen VW for what it was when they released it, I refuse to bother with it. Way I see it if a side-grade is only going to be 1 to 5% better the event it comes from should only be 1-5% more annoying.
Well the fights are kinda cool and fun the first few times you do em. They get bland after a dozen or so though. I do them because I got really tired of killing birds / worms / ect.. mindlessly with Leach's for XP. I'm not stressing on the drops, if I get them great, else I'm selling stuff to NPC or AH for gil. For me it's just something to do in between my dyna runs with friends.
The more I read Camates post the mroe I think Hordcore hacked his acc and posted it, MAXIMUM TROLLING!
I imagine at this point only time will tell, if players really feel this way it will wither and die and the players will get the last laugh. Personally i'm on T5 jeuno and T1 zilart (stupid dragon) once i get all KI and completion (yay teleports) ill stop doing it until the new ones come out. I also have no intrest in helping catch people up being that its generally PuG content, if I can get climbs so can my ls mates.
Empy weapon trial numbers are 3000 riftcinder/dross so don't worry guys everyone will be doing Voidwatch for many many years to come. You'll eventually get your athos tabards!
The dev response to this reminds me of the response the CEO of Netflix gave regarding their DVD rental pricing fiasco. The point has been missed entirely.
