    My biggest issue with this announcement is that it will interfere with LS that do dynamis for the sake of upgrading relics specifically
    I agree with this now SqEnix decides to make everyone happy and just let the random person in with no care for preset rules of LS's that have done this for years, you get random people in there (especially at first due to the currency prices) who are going to lot EVERYTHING they want and it throws off the balance of people who have been working their buts off for the last year or two upgrading and now you have to share with someone who is in it just for the gil.. Not to mention most LS who do this have set rules of lotting relics what do you thinks going to happen when you get just anyone in on a run in xarcabard? everyone and their brother are lotting on THF hands or RDM and BLM head.. what about the participation effect? Is it going to be like it is now you enter you can lot anything in the pool or is it going to be set to drop to an alliance? Dynamis is going to get stupid if you have a single person sitting at the entrance just lotting everything and not participating... I mean if SqEnix is going to set time limits like abyssea and drop everything killed by an alliance to an alliance then I can see this working but if the rules stay the same this is going to become a terrible idea.. Is it going to be unlimited amount of time and you can log in and out of it whenever you want, once your out you have 24 hours to re-enter? I think there is more going on then we are aware of since all the details haven't been released yet but I am kinda concerned about this at the same time if the drops change to a alliance system like everywhere else then it wont be so bad to go in and kill mobs in an alliance on a daily basis it will greatly improve the speed of upgrading a relic.. on the other hand if its going to be unorganized chaos then like i said its going to be worthless to do

    I'm fairly certain the lotting on items will be changed, it is pointless to complain about loot distribution. They could go abyssea mode with it where your claim = your loot, or they could go campaign/WoE mode where your "effort" = your loot. The big problem will be that there will be competition inside the run for the stuff you want. Competition that you can't accurately gauge until you enter and take a look. If you enter to take a look, you're stuck. You can't decide "Oh, crowd looks rough in Windy today, let's head for Xarc, guys."
