[dev1015] Abyssea Update and the Cruor-For-Chests Adjustment

[Runespider]

Only thing I want to say about the destroy box for curor thing is, please please put the destroy box option in the menu you get to see what's in it. If I have to select the box again from the start, go through the menus etc to destroy it I'm just leaving it there. Dealing with mass amounts of boxes is already annoying, not much chance I'll deal with a dud box menu from the start again for a miniscule amount of curor.

[Nynja]

Some people are concerned that some people in a party might intentionally despawn chests whether they're needed or not.

Then they should rethink about letting them in their party to begin with >.>

And I understand why they're giving some bonus for despawning chests. Someone Cleaving multiple mobs wont have their new mobs dead before their previous set of chests depop, which means they're not in danger of loading 0 chests due to their set of chests their next cleave. By giving something for it, it gives reason to get it done.

[Kincard]

Yeah, I think people are overreacting a bit- if someone's being annoying about cracking open chests for some chump change cruor, than you can just warn/boot them from your group.

[rog]

Don't be ridiculous kincard, that would never work.

[Akujima]

People do dumb things.

So then people need to smarten up.

[Zatias]

I believe that some players will indeed delete chests simply out of spite.

Remember that Artifact Feet you outlotted me on? Yeah, so do I! *deletes chest*

Though anyone can say "just boot the person", you can't know if they are going to do stuff like that until it happens.

I hope that "destroy pyxis" will be the default top option in the menu, and won't require a confirmation prompt to activate.

That will always be true in the world of pickup groups and random people. Only real solution? Do things with people you trust. Otherwise, that risk will always be there, whether it's chest destruction, or ninja lotting, or QM'ing, MPK, whatever.

Could we perhaps have some Pyxis Lables to help quickly communicate to all party members which Pyxis are important and which are OK to destroy?

-Pyxis Lables

That way people could say things like, "Those two Ebons over there are OK to destroy?", and all party members can easily and quickly locate and destroy the Pyxis in question with accuracy.

Additionally, could there be an improvement to the Pyxis pileup that occurs often when dealing with large amounts of enemies that bunch together when surrounding a player? Something that would "Force" Pyxis to separate upon being discovered from a fallen foe in an orderly fashion? That would also help greatly in communicating which Pyxis are which.

Thanks Devs. /salute

I will definitely be using the box > cruor method and I do not feel bad for people who would party with those they can't trust. Everything in abyssea can be done with 1-2 friends, random alliances only create problems for those who actually know what they are doing.
