    More high level mission rematch battlefields please!

    I rather like this system of recycling old mission fights for high level battles that you can farm for loot. I haven't been to the Kamlanaut or Ealdnarche rematches yet (I wanna build a party but haven't gotten around to it yet). I like the principle though. Here's a few potential targets:

    -- Promyvion Dem, Holla, and Mea bosses.
    -- Promyvion Vahzl fight as something you can do after clearing Dem, Holla, and Mea.
    -- Promathia
    -- Lilith
    -- Gessho
    -- Shadow Lord

    Just a few off the top of my head.

    Why not but Twilight Cloak 2.0 should have auto-reraise and maybe Giga-Impact!

    Impact that doesn't cost 666 MP would be nice. Stupidly overpriced spell to cast...

    Considering how few people bothered to do the revamped celestial nexus/return to delkfutts tower fights, i'm not sure if even more obscure bcnms are a good idea.
    Stuff like shadowlord sounds ok, but it wasnt a very interesting fight from a mechanics point of view.
    New bcs with 3+ monsters that you cant supertank hold with an ochain pld would be nice

    People seem to be quite happy with AA/DM only still, and even though I can xp chain Outer Ra'kaznar monsters for 2475xp a kill, my friends and I are pretty darn sick of grinding out 20-30 merits.
    They really need another way to 'charge' for newer battlefield access, i'd sometimes prefer to just pay gil or burn the ridiculous amount of seals i still have.

    Yeah I think that's the biggest problem. People do the AA fights because they want to target either specific equipment or a specific Rem's chapter. They might be more enticing if instead of chapters, the mission rematch battlefields dropped a different item that you then trade in for a chapter of your choice. Or added 3 more battles and made each one drop a specific chapter.

    Still it couldn't hurt to have more of these battles. It seems like it takes little effort to make them. Just copy existing content and ramp up the stats of the mobs involved. I just like the idea of going at these fights again, and I'd do Ealdnarche or Kamlanaut if I ever had the wherewithal to put a party together. Been too busy for that lately though.
