Voidwatch Final Chapter

[Camate]

Hello!

As we have finally reached the final chapter for Voidwatch, starting with the upcoming version update we will be implementing adjustments focusing on making this content more enjoyable.

• Adjustment content
  • Upcoming version update (scheduled for mid-May)
    • Adjustments to drop rates and number of drops from Provenance Watcher
    • Crystal Petrifact stack quantity increased from 12 to 99
  • Next version update
    • Application of the weakness system of the final chapter to all the other chapters
    • Implementation of ticket system for specific items
    • Implementation of a system where weakening monsters is possible through paying a fee (Excluding the final chapter)
    　
  • Objective
    As I mentioned at the top, we will be making this content more enjoyable, but to go into a bit more detail on this, the idea is centralized around those who are coming in late and did not do this content as it came out with everyone as well as those players who cannot log in during peak times.
    
    Specifically, we are planning to increase the options to counter situations such as not being able to participate when there is a shout due to progression issues, lacking members to defeat a monster, and the strong desire to obtain a certain item.

This post was intended to serve as an outline for the adjustments and the objective behind them, but we will be bringing you specific details for each adjustment in the near future.

[*]Application of the weakness system of the final chapter to all the other chapters[*]Implementation of ticket system for specific items

Can you go into a little more detail on the ticket system? When you say specific items, is it something along the lines of obtaining a ticket (such as a Mekira Meikogai ticket) if you have the item in your possession? Has the number of tickets required in order to obtain the item still in the range of 6 as you had mentioned before?

Sounds good, the ultimate goal is meteor for 1M gil. Will this affect dross/cinder availability ? I hope so.

why are people who didn't do progression being rewarded?

[Kiyara]

These changes seem good. I look foward to them. I actually like the fact SE is noticing people aren't always able to have 18 people to defeat the mobs. It should be doable with less.

Thank you, awesome changes it seems, keep up the good work on focusing on contents that is accessible and enjoyable and not locking out the majority of the players to be able to experience it. Thanks again!! Very much needed, and great to hear these amazing things coming in the next update.

That is just the way these types of games are. A lot of us can say the same about doing the original COP and other stuff as well. My ls has taken returners etc back through clears, and it can be hard to get people to help. I wish the ticketing was implemented this update though, I don't care how they do it. It is ridiculous the way certain people get body over body drops and I am like 0/2000 on any decent drop. I almost believe it is IP based.

So this whole buy an item to force weakness, this going to be like those special items from CoP, Snoll Tzar fight, Ultima/Omega airship fight type items that can force weakness's?

Also i would like to know if the dev team have revised their vision for the ticket system yet, last i heard your concept of a ticket system was half baked.

Edit: funny just as we predicted after dealing with their crappy vision for VW thus far it becomes such a big deal that they make semi reasonable refinements, its like when you beat a dog by kicking it with steel toe boots for 365 days then deciding you're just going to spank him with an open palm instead.
