    Same could be said about any Abyssea NM that doesn't rage. Or will you argue your inability to generate time by capping lights and farming chests before starting the fight?

    Except, your able to kill the NM solo, it just has a built in system designed that screw most solo players, meaning even though you can kill it you have to spam it a ton of times thanks to being unable to find other players willing to do it with you while drops are as low as singles or doubles with a 1/4 change at the one you need/want.

    You mean like really low drop rates on items? Or how about the NMs that drop 1 item or another and the split isn't a straight 50/50 chance?

    Low drop rates suck in general, the fact that your drop rate is tied to your ability to get 1 friend to come along to cast a few spells on it then stand there looking derpy, is also stupid.

    Semantics, both systems arguably suck. Honestly I'd take the proc system that encourages playing with others over a system that relies on praying TH decided to be on my side.

    Depends on the situation. If others are willing to do it with me, I am all for procs, if I am doing old content no one wants to touch because they already finished it, I would rather go with better drop rates that depend on TH.

    If VW is any indicator, better drop rates will never happen. Don't get me wrong I get the point of not making everything 100% but it's such a BS artificial way to extend the life of a given event.

    The only thing great about this idea is to let us buy a pop item to pop those heavily camped NM that is on 10-15 mnts timer. I don't see any problem whatsoever on everything else, since really, you only need 1-2 other people. All hand, feet, legs, and head seals are quite easy to solo. TH really does bring much luck for random 1-2 seal drops without proc. I understand a lot of the returning players or newbies who got left in the dust during abyssea gold rush are scrambling trying to find people to team up. But honestly I hardly find it a problem for me to find random strangers trying to solo the NMs and simply ask them to team up. Having a blm and blue leveled are quite handy, as usual being versatile helps making you more useful when trying to low man abyssea.
