You're going off by what will be old situations... entering Dynamis wont be much of an issue other than the first buy and coins will drops because of the number of coins...

TBH, I am disappointed with this change. I liked it when relics were more of an accomplishment. At this rate, everyone will have one.

I couldnt agree more

I liked it when it took a jillion hours to make it to level 75. *rolls eyes*
I liked it when CoP was ridiculously hard and no one would help you with it. *rolls eyes*
I liked it when *insert hard thing* got less hard. *rolls eyes*

As the game gets older, it's somewhat necessary to make old content easier, otherwise it's impossible for new players to get to where the current players are. This is a normal part of MMOs. FFXI just did it slower than everyone else, so we got used to how things were.

And revamping dynamis so that reservations aren't required is something people have been asking for for a long time. Why would anyone be disappointed with it? Why does this change automatically mean everyone's going to have a relic weapon? And why is this a problem when some mythics and empyreans are better anyway?

Personally, I don't really ocnsider spamming the same dynamis run 100 times for the last 2 stages any kind of accomplishment. kililng the NMs for the last 2 stages was sort of an accomplishment a while back, but now it's easy with the level cap rise. The new setup and schedule change means you can do dynamis stuff when it suits you, instead of having to be stuck to a rigid schedule. I think it's great.

My biggest problem with the Dynamis update is the fact that it will be harder to get currency. I should have thought throughly about my statements. I apologize and admit I did not think that through.

With most shells, currency is dealt with through a point system. Same with drops. It's easier to obtain an item you want if you have enough points. Although there is almost always someone with more points than you.

This new system will be Heaven.... for people with lot bots.

It will be Hell for people like me who typically have bad luck with lots.

The 24 hour cool down is awesome. I love that. But I liked it when it was just a linkshell affair.

It took me a year and a half to reach 75. But through that I learned how to play my job. I see people who hit 90 in a few weeks on a new job and they have little skill. Not everyone, most people do fine. But some.

I'm happy with most of the future changes. But this really would make it harder to secure enough currency to obtain a relic weapon.

Why would you need lot bots or super lot luck? You think they're going to keep the global loot pool when reservations are removed? I really don't think they will. The'yre changing it to be more like Abyssea, not more like Walk of Echoes (Which is also supposed to be being revamped in the next update as well)

If anything, it will be easier, not harder, to get currency because you wont be dependent on a bunch of other people to help you get it. And with dynamis being cheap as free, currency prices will go down (especially since the strength of empyreans will limit demand)

Hmm, now that I am thinking about it, it makes a bit more sense, with the way you have worded it. Should they remove the global lot pool.. that would be so much better. I seriously pray that they will.

Nothing was mentioned about removing the global pool, I'm going to imagine it will stay.

If it stays, I stand by my statement of currency will be hard to get.

But we're talking about Square Enix. Their updates are never completely limited to only what they have stated in a version update preview.

Edit: Square Enix is always changing their mind, just like a normal group of human beings. And like normal human beings, they make mistakes.

Just because nothing was mentioned, doesn't mean nothing will change. They know we hate walk of echoes, and they're going to be revamping it. They know it would be stupid to have Dynamis based on that. If they did that, it would just make those areas more dead than they already are.

It would be stupid to imagine it staying, it is not going to be like a battlefield, it is going to be like an abyssea area without the abyssea stuff.

I like you. You, sir (I am assuming because your avatar is a Galka) use logic.
