Request. Please allow trust in abbysea

[Zeargi]

Why, do you think you're special with your 99 smn? I (and most other people these days) had every job at 99 on my previous character, I'm well aware how easy things are with smn. I'm also aware how easy Abyssea is with the correct atmas on any job, if you can get them.

You obviously have no clue of anything SMN, its not this super easy mode job. If Summoner was so Badass, then it'd be in every party, but it's not. I enjoy playing the job, which is why I play it.

I returned a couple of months ago with the intent of starting fresh but so much content is locked off to us because nobody does it and of those players that never do it or help others they want to make it more horrible.

Actually, I do still go there and farm, and as I've already said before, I've got no problems with helping people. Have you even asked someone? Try joining a LS. You and I are on the same serve, so I know that there are some around.

The point being made was that these things make the game more attractive for players that aren't already set. Let them do the Abyssea missions (you know enjoy the story), let them get atmas so they can play around killing stuff etc The whole addition of Trusts was an admission by Square that the playerbase is in a shocking state and party based leveling/lower tier content is broken, so they added these. People are just asking them to expand it a bit into other outdated content most players never go anywhere near anymore.

Allowing players to have all the atmas or to use trust in Abyssea won't hurt you so why are you so against it? Let people enjoy this old game with outdated content.

All I hear from you is "Gimme this, and Gimme That." Abyssea is a add-on arena, that's all it is. A cute "What if" Scenario. It had no real impact on the story what's so ever. You never need to step foot into it... Ever. You don't need the atmas, you don't need to fight anything, the only reason it was used was to help with the grind of leveling from 75 to 99.

From FFXIclopedia:
"In order to obtain an Atma, elemental weapon skills must be used to yield its weakness (shown by a Weakness Red over the enemy's head.) Atma are guaranteed to drop after exploiting this weakness once. However, Repeatedly exploiting this weakness on the same enemy will drastically reduce your chances of obtaining an Atma." So, I'm not even sure you can get an Atma without procing red anyway.

1.) Trusts can't be resummoned in a fight, so once they die... That's it. Either you die and hope you can reclaim, or you just wasted a pop

2.) Trusts have mostly Character Unique Skills, so even if they did let them Proc. You have 2 or 3 that actually use the WS you need and that's IF you get lucky to have that be the WS and The Mob isn't casting a Spell or doing a TP move.

3.) Trusts have a set AI, they don't understand strategy - Stand on this side of mob so it only uses this TP move, so you run a greater chance of losing because of placement.

4.) Trusts have a required engagement to act, so it's means off or on. For a WHM, against a beastie the spams AoE Things and Silence that doesn't work so well. Not to mention enemies that Heal from physical DMG while TPing and Magical Damage while Casting Spell.

And why are you so against actually asking real people for help?
