Considering most people do other things now

Not only that but it kills the community when your nm gets stolen and the person stealing who was once friendly has turned into a complete asshole.

i guess im lucky as ive never had a mob stolen from me. that said if i give up claim for w/e reason i deserve to lose the nm. if i dont use block aid to stop people from using cure to grab hate i deserve it took from me. any nm not in seekers isnt that hard. and if your friends are stealing from u then find new friends ..

Never said friends, and I mean that a 48 hour - 72 hour pop hnm that you seem to have no competition for, goes completely awry when out of nowhere a PLD flash pulls it -right- at the second when it pops. Not only is that unsettling, it makes users feel like their hard work is for nothing. So anyone who goes "It was tough for me so it should be tough for them" Seriously gtf over yourself already. This isn't the stone age anymore so if SE can't compromise with their playerbase to get rid of these absurdly long repop times for items that are mediocre compared to the newest equipment then I'm sorry but it's either something changes or they keep losing customers.

maybe dropping dropping min respawn but maintaining maximum.

FYI, unless it's a purely time-based spawn, there is no such thing as a "maximum" respawn time.

When they say 8-16 hours for Charybdis, it doesn't mean that after 16 hours of killing PHs you're guaranteed to have Charybdis pop. It just means you are really unlucky as hell if you manage to go that long without seeing it. It's still possible though.

They should change all the old Nm,s to 10 min repop and increase PH based ones to 100%. As for regular mobs everywhere they really need to make instant respawn now a days. Even inside abyssea you can struggle for mobs as they dont repop fast enough. Nothing wrong with the forced trigger method using local mobs for force pop items.

But remember, some mobs don't have 'local' mobs, such as Khimara where he's in the middle of a clearing with no mobs, how would you force pop him? To be honest you would have make him an exception and and just do a shorter respawn time?

Thats what i meant when i said change all NMs to 10 mins. Basically anything thats on a timed pop should repop in 10 mins.

The best solution would be two-fold:

Placeholder pop NM's would still be Placeholder popped. When a placeholder dies 0-15 minutes is 0% pop 16-30mins is 33% pop31-45 mins 76% pop 45-60 mins 99% pop 61+ 100%.


NM that aren't PH popped would take be popped by a universal Rare item for that region.

1% drop from too weak
3% Easy prey
7% Decent Challenge
10% Even Match
13% Tough
17% Very Tough
25% Incredibly Tough

They can do w/e they want with the ???. It can port around, it can have a random respawn of 1-10 mins, it can spawn multiples. Just as long as access is fun and simple.

This is my first non-troll and/or not calling out a schmuck as a schmuck post post I think. Feels weird. Tingly weird

Question: Why can't we decide on things for a game we play? I'm pretty sure the other nationalities would be in agreement with this, and would increase competition for the bigger NM's.

I don't like that sort of mentality when it comes to ffxi ty... SE does a good job making a game I'll leave them to my opinions....

To make sure that the devs see this, I'm going to advertise this on my server to be looked at. Even if we can't have a poll, we can still vote via posts.

All in favor of this idea say Yes.
All against the idea say No.


Yes.
