Walk of Echoes is dead again.

[Kysaiana]

I didn't feel like finding and necro-bumping the old WoE thread so I'm starting a new one to see if WoE still has activity on other servers or if it's just as dead as on Siren.

I honestly have no idea what would garner interest in WoE again short of adding HMPs to the drop list. It's too bad, I didn't even get half way done with my GS for dice. Ended up with 38 dice 12 residue before people just stopped going entirely. It used to be you could at least go 2 days of the week and find enough people to do some runs, now it's just totally dead in WoE besides people zoning into provenance.

Toss it on the content trash heap along with Pankration, Fish Ranking, Ballista, Brenner, LS Liga, Northlands campaigns, Evoliths, Elite Training Regimes, traditional XP parties, and more.

You could make your own group if you really wanted to do it.

Don't forget eco warrior and expeditionary force!

Possible. However, the effort involved would far outweigh any chance of getting dice that might result if I was lucky enough to find people that care about WoE anymore. If I really want to finish the trial I suppose I can farm up 6.2 mil gil, and that's if I could find 62 more dice, all at 100k each. Which is unlikely. And then there's the issue of residue which are usually 200k if you can actually find them. But it's really not worth that much gil for a few more base damage.

Since you come from Phoenix I know it's hard to believe, but, on some servers if an event is dead (which a lot are on phoenix, btw) you can't "make a group if you really wanted to do it."

It surprised me that when I moved from Phoenix, people actually did things other than Abyssea, however WoE is officially dying down now even in JP prime time.

Still pretty active on Sat/Sun morning EST time from 7am-11am or so here with primary JP players and some NA'ers.

I done both 5 and 7 lowmen with anywhere from 2-4 SMN and/or BST's. So can always level one of those and try to find 3 other ppl in the same boat as you.

If they make the weapons worth doing then maybe people will actually do woes.

Dead on Quetz until about 12:00AM EST and then is EXTREMELY active up until about 9:00AM EST. Did a /sea the other day, and there was almost 100 people in the zone. Seems to be very popular with Japanese and European players, but for whatever reason, not North American players.

I think the recent updates made to it are fantastic, it's a great place to skill up at level 99 now, the rewards aren't bad, and it really is a lot of fun if you get into a good group. Even if you don't, it's still fun.

Related question- anyone know what triggers weaknesses and what happens when you do it? I can't seem to find any information about it, but have seen/staggered a few enemies.

No, if they had simply added a personal chest at the end of a battle/time-out(based on the same grading system from say Campaign even) with a pool that had a 5 min or so delay, instead of the BS 'you must win to even get your hourly ration of logs'-then maybe ppl would do WoE.

For a group of ppl so almost romantically preoccupied with 'balance', SE totally failed when they redid WoE. Event arrived DoA and i haven't bothered with it since the change.

@OP until SE wakes up and uses their collective brain and fixes WoE properly, i've just consigned myself to having the WoE weapons i did way back when stuck at lvl 90.

Weakness in WoE seems to be totally random. When you get the red stagger, everyone gets a temp item (first stagger only) which also seems to be random.
