FFXI fixed!

[Sarick]

The more I think about it, the more I like this idea:

How about an event somewhat like VW or maybe like magian trials (or both).

First make a set of generally crappy gear, maybe like hecatomb. You know, something where it has like slow +5 on every piece.

Then make it so that the only way to get the +1 version of the new drops is by wearing the crappy hecatomb -1 for the entire fight.

Make it so that the more people you have decked out in crappy gear, the better the odds of a drop or the more points received.

Add other drops to the event that are unaffected by the crappy gear system.

Make it so that the crappy gear also drops from this system.

I'm sure there's about a million holes in that idea, but it's start.

Best way,

1. Extreme High Quality +2 remove enemy weaknesses, add ten times the drop rate one heavy metal sack 100% on tier 4+ mobs only.

2. Advanced High Quality have the weaknesses 20% success rate and quadruple the drop rate one 100% on a heavy metal plate on tier 4+ enemies only.

3. Normal Quality Nothing here same normal drop rate.

4. Too Weak, Low Quality. All weaknesses trigger 100% and last three times as long. No rewards other then win and maybe parcepts and atmasites.

I bet most players would opt. for the NQ version. Let the people who are after wins select too weak versions.

THERE EVERYONE HAS A CHANCE and the ELITES can be happy because they can get their shinny EMP's to 95 faster while feeling good about it.
