May Version Update

[Afania]

Every once a while I see people wanting a Mythic or currently building one wants faster alexandrite/requirement done.

I wonder what's their reason to do a mythic to begin with, if they don't enjoy the "long journey to the end" feel and want the process to be faster. There are good weapons that's on par with mythic everywhere.

Hello Dev Team,

There are somethings I would like to be addressed and added to May's Version Update:

Availability of Alexandrites:

I can understand incorporating a stipulation of 30,000 alexandrites to makes this a challenge, but with today's method of acquiring is extremely time consuming. I would like to see more ways for us to collect more alexandrites in a reasonable, timely manner. Whether if its increasing the drop amount or incorporating a weakness system like dynamis/abyssea/VWs so we can collect from each monster we fight.

Availability of Heavy Metal Plates:
I do see an increase in single HMPs from VWs. Which is a start in the right direction. However, I would like to see it where we don't have to rely too much on VW NMs. See if you can incorporate single HMPs on NMs such as Glavoid, Kukulkan, Cirein-croin, Amphitrite, ect. Design it where the drop rate percentage would vary on the difficulty of the NMs with the maximum drop up to 3. That way, it will still require work.

Salvage II Plans availability:
I know this hasn't come up often, but the Plan drop availability is way to low given that we are only allow to enter Salvage once a day. If lucky, a person can collect up to 6 plans per run. But the requirement to upgrade equipment is 40 or 50 plans per piece. That is very time consuming. Please consider increasing the availability of plans per run. Granted I know we are in the age of ilvl 119 armor, I but I will assume one day Salvage armor will be afforded the same privilege of being 119 if it already met the lvl 99 criteria.

Dancer Job abilities:
I think it's time to add Job Abilities like Sensual Dance, Thorned Stance, and any other useful JAs.

That is a just a small request I am leaving and I want to open the floor to everyone that want to see some significant changes or additions to the next version update.

as much as i'd like to see alexandrite and HMPs more available in some form or another , i won't be holding my breathe, but as far as the may update if we get the wardrobe and macro enhancements i'll be very very happy.

I'm totally super mega Joyga IV that we are finally getting lvl 99 for our Fellows, and they will get the ilvl buff too. My poor brave galka Dzapiwa has been stuck on 95 for ever, and although he doesn't mention it, I can tell that his feelings were hurt when I started using Trusts out of necessity.
I'm still hoping SE will one day add a matrimony-ring exchange CS option if a player wants to marry the Fellow they have adventured with for so many years. And maybe a few new /chatmode dialogues, maybe some new Fellow Points armors.
Thankyou SE for not forgetting our oldest and dearest NPCs, our brave Fellows who we have fought and died alongside for such a long time. I was totally super charged when I read this news in the May V.up section. Totally happy player mode <You can have this.>

They've said that only AF/Relic/Empyrean armor will get the item level upgrade, so we can safely drop the rest (not word for word, but they did actually insinuate that you should drop other irrelevant level 99 armor, like Salvage II armor). I don't know why anyone cares about Salvage plans anymore. I just drop them now.

Yes please to increasing availability of alexandrite. Beitetsu is common to the point of being worthless and you only need 300 of them, but you need 30,000 alexandrite and the available sources of alexandrite has never expanded except with the additions of Neo-Nyzul and Salvage II. On the other hand, we have cases and boxes of beitetsu forced on us in every update, in BCNMs, Delve, WKRs, Records of Eminence, Spark Rewards, and come next update, there will be more sources, I am sure. STOP the beitetsu spam. We only need 300 of the damn things and they're already worth practically nothing. And the reward for 300 beitetsu is amazing; the reward for 30,000 alexandrite is useless unless you continue to devote your life to upgrading the weapon through trials.

Why would you drop anything you can store on a slip, I dont get it.

After doing daily salvage runs, it's just not worth the trouble of prolonging the repetition by giving them to an NPC who may never be relevant again. I think part of it is also a protest of the fact that the NM gave me toilet paper instead of an alexandrite pouch: I throw it away immediately to stick it to the man.

I can come up with a list a mile long what I want in the May version update. But I am realistic enough to know that even if they planned to implement everything I/we wanted, it's not all going to come in a single version update, especially not one within weeks of proposing the ideas.
