Level 99 Relic, Mythic, Empyrean, and WoE Weapons

[Ang]

I would also like to add that many people in North America still play this game on PS2, please keep this in mind when thinking up ways to upgrade R/E/M weapons.

I dunno... They did a survey and judging by their actions since then, it doesn't seem like many PS2 are still in action here. I could be wrong, but I think North America has mostly moved onto the PC or the Xbox 360 versions. From what I understand, this is not the case in Japan where they are still pretty popular.

sorry if I missed somthin did they mention if emp have to be 99 to get dmg upgrade or is it all lvls getting bumped up.

You cannot. You cannot withdraw any items for any trial after they have been deposited.

Sitting on a ton of WoE currency, Dice & whatnot. I wasn't sure if I was going to sell the excess or use them for myself. This update if it happens means I'll be living in WoE again for awhile.

Proposed damage ratings are still too low... Buramenk'ah is still 9 points higher than Excalibur.

Yes, but the issue is, if R/M/E aren't the best, and are only comparable, and Delve weapons take considerably less time to do for a better reward, then why bother with R/M/E at all?

not having the higher base dmg doesn't mean they aren't the best.

Relic have hidden procs, add effects, aftermath, relic WS DMG bonus (not always good, but that not new)
Empy have ODD AM
Mythic have OAT, JA bonus
RME are < delve boss weapon, not the 30k plasm one and we don't know how "easy" they are to get

R/M/E weapons would need a major boost in damage to compete with the new weapons. New weapons have higher base damage, acc, atk, and some have other stats like haste/crit. With these added stats, R/M/E need to be increased to a point that they have at least 30~60 DMG base higher to still be the best of the best. Anything less just throws salt in the players wound after spending weeks or months or years getting these weapons. The new director of FFXI needs to learn a few things about FFXI and us players. We like a challenge but we WILL NOT STAND FOR getting our hard work and money thrown away on his stupid ideas. I did not make emps or relics or anything to have them become useless and I'm sure every person with an R/M/E feels the same.

SE, you need to think if you want to stay afloat as a company, you better start THINKING! At this rate, if I leave FFXI, I will never buy a game from your company again and I have almost all FF games from 5 and up to 12. Open your eyes dev team! LISTEN TO US AND DO NOT SAY WE DON'T KNOW HOW HARD IT WOULD BE TO DO THINGS OR HOW THE GAME WORKS!!!! MOST OF US HAVE BEEN AROUND LONGER THAN YOU HAVE SO STFU AND LEARN FROM THOSE THAT KNOW THE GAME AND KNOW WHAT WE WANT!!!! Its that simple... LISTEN TO YOUR PLAYERS! They are the ones that PAY FOR YOUR JOB!!! Without us, you have nothing. End of the line for your job. If you enjoy what you do, then start listening to what we say and DOING IT! Don't shoot yourself in the foot because your not using what you have in your head and thinking about it... Players will start to leave if you don't fix this within the month. Some have already left. FFXI will die in the next few months if changes aren't made and the person running the show doesn't stop destroying our game. SE may have made this game, but it has become OURS over the years. I don't care what the terms of use say, it is the players game. We are all loyal fans but I don't think we will put up with this BS for long.
