Will there be additional Abyssea type zones?

[Soundwave]

I would hope to see this Roadmap content be based on how many people enter this type of area, so it can range to big HNNMLS and smaller groups of people but yet have somewhat even difficulty based on # of members in area or fighting that mob.

tired of abyssea atma / curor buffs have spoild people and made things easy like doing things out side of abyssea way more

Really any noob could do all of the old endgame nothing has been hard since its strat was posted on wiki. Hardest part was and still is finding 5 to 17 other people that are not completly retarded.

Cannot be more true.

Welcome to FFXI, where the core of the gameplay is waiting.

It's awesome to hear that so many of you are enjoying all of the current Abyssea content and are craving more!

We spoke to the development team about whether new Abyssea zones would be added, but they said that they currently do not have any plans of doing so. No need to fret though, as there is still a ton of great content on the way as outlined in the road map!

needs stuff like improving lottery pop NMs, i really hate doing three hours in window for an NM to pop ... with a 5 min repop time

Well thats a little sad to hear, I hope the dev team works on what has been a major success with Aby and not try to go back to the old ways at least. Old stuff worked at the time but Aby changed the game and the old way would cause riots now.

You seem to be saying this like we had such content at some point in time. I assure you, since 2006, everything has been easy. And for some people, it's been easy far longer then that.

Yeah, I mean, all those times you beat AV and PW, sure was easy right? Right? Oh wait you're talking out of your ass.

[Ravenmore]

AV was not beatable. The 2hour trick SE posted in thier little vid was tested so many time it was shot down and flamed everytime it came. Turns out if you didn't hit your 2hour as soon as used it and wait that extra sec for it to show in log it was to late to lock. That was at best a gimic the player base rejected cause even finding a un bannable way to beat it SE changed the rules. After Perfect def was released AV became easy with us of smn. AV was downed hundreds of times in the first week that PD was out. PW was never endgame since it also used 4 rare drops need for mystic upgrades. Only fools wasted thier zeni to pop a mob that had crap gear not much better then other endgame gear. Every other endgame event outside of 2 gimic mobs was cake walk to beat. Only gimps had a hard time, even then they still seemed to do good enough.

I agree,
But I dont think SE is going the old route with FFXI.
They making different contents but its not going to be abyssea related.
It will be more accessible for majority to play and still enjoy character progression and gameplay.
So no need to worry.
