Suggestion: Restorable Relic/Mythic/Empyreal Weapons

[Kincard]

You'd almost think they'd created a forum to communicate with the players or something.

Though now that you mention it, given that they still haven't given us access to Mog Safes outside even though it'd be such an easy thing to do, you've reminded me that any news about this adjustment probably won't be heard until 3 or 4 years down the line anyway, so you can sigh in relief they'll add in something else that's useless instead.

As has been stated by myself and others. Implementing this or even looking to it means dev time is being wasted on something that exists in the game to a degree and is 100% the players fault. And SE has come out saying that the dev team is small so there aren't a ton of people splitting up tasks. If FFXI was major bug free I wouldn't care.

To some extent I can appreciate this logic. But it's safe to say that the purpose of the vast majority of the updates we've gotten in the last year or so have focused on little things to make the game more enjoyable and less annoying. It's clear that a significant chunk of the dev teams' efforts is devoted to something exactly like this suggestion. With this being the case, I hope that this is addressed in the future.

All this talk of "learning your lesson" baffles me. I know somebody who accidentally made a mistake and bought a ton of o. bronze for the silver price and he was in a funk for weeks before disappearing. For a lot of people, a tossed relic or the like is very similar. It's almost like throwing away a year's worth of effort. It may be something you learn your lesson from, but it's far more likely to be something that makes you quit the game.
