Remove the 5 minute timer on the kindred seals drop

[Glamdring]

Did you even read what Camate wrote? They're not going to decrease the drop times, but are considering letting you trade seals that you don't want for seals you do want. Considering it's much harder now than it used to be to get Kindred's Seals, this is a good thing. Hopefully it will mean the end of 600k Phalanx scrolls new RDM33 will have to buy.

I absolutely read it... and again, no. People should have to work for something they seek. And the seals are not hard to get now... kill stuff>>get seals, how difficult was that? I've got empy weaps to make, an NPC to level, skills to skill, crafts that require farming and 15 jobs yet to take 1-99, seals I'll be getting aplenty.

Howdy!

From a balance perspective, making any adjustments to the amount of seals dropped or removing time limitations would have to be dealt with extremely delicately, mainly due to the fact that these seals are used in certain quests as well as other battlefields. Any change to the amount in circulation would ultimately result in a reduction in item value. To avoid this, we are thinking about making it possible to exchange seals and will be looking into specific exchange rates and rules. We’ll be sure to keep you posted on any developments.

That will work =o

I really don't think you read the post...
How does trading seals that you worked for, for other seals (like trading battle trophies or imperial coins) mean that you wouldn't have to work for them anymore?

People will still have to work for them, they just will be able to get them the same way we have always got them (by exping), instead of being forced to kill ep shit that does not drop crests/high crests.

Most mobs people kill these days drop Crests, not Seals. Even mobs that used to be good for seals now drop Crests as well, making it less likely you will get the Seal you're seeking, because a Crest can drop in its place. Considering the pool of mobs you can get KS from is smaller, and there is hardly any reason to fight them anymore, KS are harder to come by. This in tandem with the KS99/Kings update actually makes that content accessible to those who work for it. And this is coming from someone who only ever did one KSNM30, preferring ever after to hoard his KS for later KS99 spammage.

And who knows? The exchange rate may be 1 KC = 1 KS. Would that really be so bad?

seriously, tired of having game content spoon-fed to me and to other players. You didn't get my interest in a game for 9 years by making the total content soloable start to finish in 1 RL month.

...and 15 jobs yet to take 1-99, seals I'll be getting aplenty.

So than it would be a proper assumption that you agree with my post about raising the LvCap for entering Abyssea to Lv70 or 75, right?

Or do you support Abyssea Leech PTs?

[Glamdring]

I think you miss the part where they didn't categorically say no to increasing drop rate.

And I don't care what people are killing now, BB is old content, KS are old content, KS99 is old content, go earn it old way!

i always did support the entrance cap for Aby being 75. I just don't waste my breath posting about it because I know they never will. Seriously, tired of level 90 noobs trying to cover their inadequacy by walking around in godly gear/Atma that was simply spoonfed to them. This game is getting to be on par with Candyland, both for difficulty and player skill.

Not that it has anything to do with what you were falsely bitching about (and not reading) but...

Howdy!

Yeah, they most certainly didn't say they were attempting to avoid it.

(You also seem to think the "old way" still exists which is laughable and a poor deflection at being called out on being wrong, suck it up and admit or just stop making a fool out of yourself, it's an embarrassment).

Ok, sure. I will go earn my kindred seals the old way.

Wait, the old way was exping? And exp mobs don't drop kindred seals anymore? Then how the hell am i supposed to do it the "old way"?
