Meeble Burrows... why 20 hours?

[Monchat]

Confirming my post above: it is not a rumor anymore.

I killed umarghkr (researcher emeritus boss). The NPC allows me to buy the 5 sub-bosses's KIs with gil. This means 1 boss every day if you have the money, 1 boss per week other wise ( farm TH boons > kill it).

Completing all missions with goal 3 also gives you 5 more items for purchase to the NPC ( for 70k ~ 100k research marks).

What is said cost?

[Monchat]

1 million gil for all five KIs (per character). The mane is probably 100% drop rate and will be multi-million item (forgot what it is crafted into but I remember people saying its the best in slot item for something).

But but but

He WANTS IT NOOOOOOOOWWWW

Can't wait, MUST DO IT BEFORE CASUAL PLAYERS DO IT!!!

Somewhere along those lines of thinking I believe.

Why are you always so bitter? Nobody thinks like this anymore, god, is this 2008?

Most people think like that actually, soon as new content comes out they spam it like crazy till they have everything they want, then stand in PJ complaining about lack of content. With meeble you cant spam it everyday, and thats why some people are upset.(i want it now syndrome)

right now I like the progression in it. Sure the first time you need 25 pheromon sacks (20 days) to access the final boss. After that you can do it at your own pace.

-Either take another 3 week to pop it: costs zero gil, but it costs you time. You will have all the boons if you rotate your books among the party, including TH+2 and bonus to spoil. The NM will also be a joke due to the DD boons (higher level of DA, mvt speed, 10/tic regain or so, 20/tic refresh...).

-either only farm some boons (1 week): TH, bonus to spoil[doing that also gives yo u refresh and regain].

-either pop it every day: nobody knows wtf bonus to spoil does anyway. He is a joke with embrava or a bard and regen V.

Seriously? Last I checked that's why people complaining about how NNI is borked get called "gimp" by the 15/15 crew. This is an MMO. There are ALWAYS people who want gear first and for it to me as exclusive as possible.

The cooldown is meant to keep the event from becoming pointless within 10 days. When's the last time you saw a shout for a WoE fight?

Been a while, but last time I looked there was no R/EX gear I was wanting from WoE either, unlike Meebles. In my opinion, thats the 1 thing NNI did right, it made it so if you could win, you got something, it was R/EX, but it was something for everyone. Meeble Burrows drop rates may or may not be good, I have no idea, if they are bad drop rates with a 5 day cool down, we have a problem. If they are good drop rates(20~50%+) then were good. My problem is that with a 20 hour cooldown time per 1 sack, max of 5, and low drop rates, that the gear becomes just another annoying grind. The game is supposed to be fun, and I admit, MB is fun the 1st few times, but if I had to spam it 15 times each mission for a tier to see 1 drop I want... the fun is lost after the 3rd~4th run, and becomes nothing more than another annoying VW.

Welcome to the new and improved FF where they treat us like a bunch of gerbil and hamsters and forced us to spin the wheel faster and faster with 0.0000001% reward ratio on events just to stretch it further and further and further. The game went from being totally AWESOME with Abyssea and turned into a big huge steaming pile of turd lately. Yes there are still some great activities to be had, but most of the newer contents are pretty much stale revision. Don't even bother hoping for any better content with the next expansion, if this is the direction the new team is going, we may as well cancel our subscription for good.

No.

Awesome was during the Lv50 cap.

Annoying was the HNM/King bot-camped 75-cap.

Borked events/NMs with Embrava+PD only strategies, luck-based drops with a borked environment where effort=/=reward, and an economy that makes the U.S. look like paradise is what we have now.

If nerfing fixing blinkers and creating events which cannot be burned and botted to completion within 1-2 months is that horrible, yes, please cancel your subscription.
