RME upgrading...

[detlef]

SE don't get that not everyone wants to do delve. I know I don't & I don't see why it needs to be the only relevant content in the game.

Good to know there are more stupid hoops for E/R/M holders to jump through just to get roughly back on par though, when I saw this update was coming I resubbed to the game in hopes that SE have become aware of their mistakes and learned from them. Oh well, guess it saves me £10 a month.

Wouldn't it have been more prudent to wait until after this update to decide whether to resub?

so... by the look of it to upgrade our RMEs we have to have a delve boss win... and i thought the increase to dmg would have been applied straight from the update, this is not going to help me get a place in a delve win once again because its still going to be the elitists shouting for other elitists and not giving anyone else a chance to get the KIs. Ive been trying to get tojil win for months but keep getting turned away because of little things like "your brd doesnt have +3 march intrument, you only have +2" or "your sch needs capped haste equip" or "oats mnk only" etc etc etc. its getting harder to find anyone to get you win these days because the people who have won only bring the people who also have won before and i was expecting to be able to straight up join with my empys to stand a chance of an invite.

Few questions for you:

-What's wrong with having to do the current hardest content in the game to get the best weapons? You can't be bothered to find your way into an alliance to get a single win?

-Do you even have a level 99 RME? I can't imagine that someone with a level 99 weapon wouldn't have any connections or even be able to merc a win if absolutely necessary.

-Leaders demand MNKs with Oats because there are ton of MNKs out there who have them so they can be picky. If you can't bring that to the table you have to have a support job ready to go. +3 March instrument is hugely important for BRD, not just some little thing. As for SCH, only Apamajas II is a difficult to get. Everything else is just bayld, skirmish, empyrean, and relic gear. You can gear SCH cheaply; stunning is just a skill that takes practice.

I was caught up in an uncharacteristic bout of optimism I guess. I forgot to take into account the square-enix factor.
