Suggestion: Restorable Relic/Mythic/Empyreal Weapons

[detlef]

I'm sorry I feel people should own up to their screw ups and learn to be more careful.

Yes, if I accidentally drop my mythic I sure hope I can learn my lesson and not drop my second mythic.

No matter how careful you are, shit happens from time to time.

[Karbuncle]

You know, Sometimes I sit here, staring at my ceiling, contemplating how petty, childish, insecure, arrogant, and selfish the majority of people are, especially online. I think to myself, Perhaps I'm being too harsh? Then i come here, and well, I realize I'm not. It really is quite sad how a suggestion of such tiny scale that will have no distinct impact on any design structure of the game and would only serve to improve quality of mind within some relic holders is being met with such determined resistance.

I think what it boils down too is, People against the idea are likely relic-less, or adamantly foolish. Cause i assure you every one of you have lotted, passed, or tossed something of value in your past. If it wasn't such a big deal, Things like the 1-time Item Restore would not exist. Accidents happen daily.

Simple precautions aren't always enough to prevent it. Its no different than people purchasing 1 bynes for 100 prices in all technicality. People make mistakes. to Error is to Human. Its not a difficult concept, everyone messes up. Everyone.

Don't worry, I didn't think for a second that you were.

And yeah, why shouldn't the game be different?

[Mirage]

Not to mention, if you drop a sword in real life, you can pick it right up again!

That was a you in a general sense, because others in the thread have said they've never made these types of mistakes. And the implementation of meeble burrows is fairly irrelevant. SE has made items non-droppable, like in moogle slips. They have made re-obtainable items from finishing quest lines like the CoP rings. The tools already exist, unlike meeble burrows which is its own new system.

@ Mirage - touche

p.s. - try learning from dropping a mythic. Only very few have the time/resources to even make 1.

Saying it after quoting me without proclaiming that it was a general "you" doesn't make that clear. I'm sure those that feel the same way I do have dropped crap and they probably learned from their mistake.

SE has made items non-droppable, like in moogle slips.

Drop a slip let me know how that goes on getting your items back. By the way SE has already said if you do this you will lose all items that are stored on that slip if you actually do this. So no items haven't been made so they can't be dropped.

And the implementation of meeble burrows is fairly irrelevant... The tools already exist, unlike meeble burrows which is its own new system.

Burrows fix = Dev Time.
Relic non-drop otption = Dev Time.

So ya it's relevant.

What isn't in game already?

Stay Alive for X time? WHM Maat fight.
Don't die? Die soloing or have the group wipe a VNM and it's gone.
Don't aggro a monster? Gears in Nyzul.
Survive to getting to a point? Nyzul Lamp among other things.
Same time death of mobs? Salvage and the Dragon Burning Circle fight.
Feed worms? Feed NPCs in Assault.

Wait!!!! there is a way to make your relic/mythic/empy undroppable!!!

/equip main "insert r/m/e here"

Why wouldn't it be equipped?

[Mirage]

You mean I can equip masamune while on thf? That sounds awesome, how do I do it?
