Because none of the 12-18 people you'll probably bring to a KSNM is going to bring an orb too.

And who doesn't have several hundred beastmen seals they could convert to kindreds for this?

You know that's besides the point right? It's just not about BB items moreso the idea that SE places such high value on items that are outdated or subject to being matched or outclassed by things that take a few days of effort.

What makes Kings so special other than the fact that at one time they were special mobs?

12-18 people for Ks99 is extremely ideal yet it doesn't matter. The rate on BB items is low for no reason other than "to preserve a trophy item". Funny BB is considered a trophy yet the Ninurta Sash (the best example) off AV was simply trounced via Twilight Belts 100% drop.

No problem there with annihilating the value of that item yet BB/King drops are special? Cmon.

Am I msising something here? BB items hard to get? No, they're not.

You're missing the part where more often than not it takes multiple runs of a Ks99 to get one BB item.

The part where nothing else in the Ks99 pool can be used to get help from others since the loot is obsolete.

The part where the NQ triggers put into the Ks99 pools are effectively useless (cept Fafnir) granted the drop rate on HQ triggers is terrible.

Oh and the part where SE makes things drop at a low rate simply for the sake of doing it.

GIVE UP MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF GIL BECAUSE THE DEV TEAM DECIDED THAT ONLY 5 IN A HUNDRED PEOPLE SHOULD GET A CHANCE AT MAYBE GETTING AN ITEM OR ELSE YOU'RE A WHINY BABY

why can't i just quote this and not say anything D:

I don't have my egg yet and I would like a d.ring. ill give it a shot with the seals I have and if don't get tthen oh well no big loss. Sounds like some of you guys would like se to make d.ring actually obtainable without extreme luck. What is going to be left in the game that is rare or hard to obtain? Already relics are faster so now the real rarity is multiple relics. Another good trophy item would be dw mythic and relic .

lolwut? Tonnes of LS have closed up shop and resort to low man farming because they simply dont have the members showing up all the time to help get currency. More relics? Bull.

Id rather my game experiences be based on skill rather than luck. I find it more rewarding to put a strategy to work and succeed and get rewarded rather than grind over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and maybe get the droids I'm looking for.

Also bro. This is impossible in XI. XI is gear based, and even then 99 percent of the game can bbe done half naked. Crappy drop rates are the only wway to make trophy items in ffxi and it should be supported especially when said items aren't even necessary

[Anewie]

I agree with SPATHOS OR W.E

Keeping these mobs rare is stupid. Just decrease BB drop if it's that important.

All other drops besides dring (and even that) aren't even that useful anymore. I hate the logic of this stupid company.
LETS KEEP GIMP RELICS AND GIMP KING GEAR RARE AND HARD TO GET but make some incredibly overpowered, amazing weapons and armor ridiculously convienant and easy to obtain.

Seriously gtfo. Thats the main reason I quite. The logic of this company makes me wanna vomit. The gear is gimp so stop pretending you have any reason to hold these mobs/drops to any value. The only thing about it that's really a must have and amazing is black belt..

[Bumbeen]

Exactly. They are low value so give them value as being rare instead.
