Seriously, VW loot system..come on.

Wow, that is quite an assumption. First off, at no point did I say I had issues getting into VW. What I said was my lesser geared jobs or those without empyrean/relic are not viable options for entry when they could be. I see no reason to go into what jobs I have or the gear on them, what I will say is the game is not built only for Hardcore. Everyone regardless of playtime, experience, gear, how many or few jobs they have should be able to enjoy all content, not just those in the right place at the right time.

ffxi is not still around b/c it is like WoW and u can get full gear in 2 months. People liek the challenge, and the direction this game is taking is that people need to work on a few jobsthey pick ,and assume their role. If you want to have every job, that is useful for filling in spots at events... sure. People who walk right into a run on a lesser geared job and expect to be as good and able to tank or DD as well as someone who a has been playing a job to get it to the maximum of its potential sort of defeats the purpose. Wait 2 more minutes on the shout, and u get an ochain pld, instead of risking ruining the whole run w/ a shmo pld

if u are not "hardcore" (meaning that u cant farm an ochain for some reason if u want to be pld so bad), you should not be tanking a whole VW run. 17 peopel depend on you, id rather have someone who knows their stuff and takes it seriously. if someoen is not "hardcore", go whm to VW or soemthing. sheesh
