Well... if we want to take this perspective.....
The last week before 2.0 launch everything should drop quickly and easily from all the primals/dungeons before they are gone. A nice going away present ^.^;

I definitely agree to this. Getting sick and tired of winning moogle 20 some times and not get anything out of it.

I thought the Primal Battles were going to stay, but the story and prequests behind them will be different. Are the primals really going away come 2.0?

I think the Primals will stay but the fights will be different, and we'll either get to keep our old weapons and also obtain the new primal drops (if they do have weapon/gear drops etc) or our old weapons will be converted to the new weapons... again assuming the new primals drop weapons.

Agreed they need to fix drops & add this next patch or earlier!

Can we get some confirmation (preferably a link) that they will be taking away these fights and/or their weapons in 2.0?

JPGAMES.DE, Frederick: To our next question: When your vision of FINAL FANTASY XIV 2.0 is realized, will there be anything left from the current game or are we going to play a whole different one?

Yoshida Naoki: Because we made such an announcement with all the information and that particular screenshot, we have a lot of questions from around the world like: “Is FINAL FANTASY XIV 2.0 going to be totally different?” Actually, it’s not going to be a different game, it’s still FINAL FANTASY XIV, of course, and the realm of Eorzea stays at Eorzea. The only difference is, as you experience now, the umbral era event, this is really going to change the world drastically. So whatever you are experiencing now is brining the future. For example guild leves remain, but some content can only be experienced in the current game. Also, there were worries we would wipe all the character data, we won’t do anything like this. So enjoy the game now and continue when 2.0 comes out.

JPGAMES.DE, Frederick: We definitely will.

Yoshida Naoki: For the guild leves, all the feedback that we receive from the players will be implemented and the proper ideal of good and evil will be brought in with 2.0 as well, also the instanced raids that you are experiencing now will be different as well, but for the primal, what is happening now due to the 7th umbral era, that might not be continued with 2.0. So, what is related to the umbral era you should really experience now.

Thats about as close as you're going to get to a link and confirmation. I don't think the weapons will be taken away but you guys can't expect that when they tell you to experience the stuff now, a year in advance, they WON'T take stuff out. They told you this was happening. Don't act surprised. They should however make stuff start dropping quickly as the moon almost hits. They could play it off as the Primals are stronger or have more energy or w/e and drop things more often because of that.

Garuda already has this. There's no reason why Moogle and Ifrit shouldn't. Specially after they refused lowering the totem requirement. And specially when they are removing the fights come 2.0

I'm sick and tired of clearing Ifrit just to wait for the gods to smile upon me.

And lets get this implemented by 1.22b please?

This is a great idea but they could also increase the drop rates from 1% to possible 10% as well as make the totems 100%. Now I am pretty damn sure that killing the primals multiple times dosent stack therefore an increased drop rate would help. Now everytime you go into a primal or dungeon and win u have a 10% chance of something dropping, and you would still have to run the content a few hundred times before you get a complete set or what not. Now considering all the content is luck based some players still may never see a drop in 200 runs or more.

Why would anyone like your post? Seriously I am glad you enjoy doing the same 1 fight as well as dungeons over and over. Now mind you the dungeons and fights are always the same nothing different in anyway. Now why should any1 have to endure this kind of content? It would be different if you went into an instance (think ffxi dynamis) and players had different things to do everytime they went in. FFXIV is and or has nothing as big or as deep as dynamis. FFXIV has the lame sauce when it comes to endgame content, if you actually want to call it endgame.

This is kind of like saying that the US Post Office is going to close when they announced that you will no longer be able to mail letters with 25 cent stamps. What? There are only 25 cent stamps! NO MORE MAIL OMG!!?!?!?!?!111!!

The only content confirmed that you won't be able to obtain post-2.0 is your goobbue mount, and they were extremely explicit about that. You think they are just going to junk 3 primal battles, when the biggest problem with the game currently is lack of content? Sure, they will change the text, etc. to make it "up to date", since the current storyline will have closed by 2.0 and everything will need to make sense relative to the current storyline, but making the rather huge leap of logic that anything that references anything is going to be deleted wholesale is ridiculous (which is a charitable way of putting it).

Unless you think it's easier to create all-new content than for them to adjust the text and whatnot.

If you folks could kindly stop claiming wild-eyed speculation as absolute fact, maybe these forums would be less confused.

I have to agree with you, they never said that they are going to stop primal fights. Reading into interviews and speculation spreads like a horrible disease. The "changes" to Primals could mean just about anything...

I'm really tired of friends freaking out because they think that either:

a) Primals are going to get ditched
b) weapons will no longer drop
c) difficulty of the fight will increase

NONE OF THESE THINGS HAVE BEEN OFFICIALLY, OR UNOFFICIALLY STATED.

That could simply mean text/story will change >.>

primals need 100% totems items, you waste more time farming the items to even enter the fight then actually fighting the primals. but if there taking out the fight in 2.0 why should the even bother? they will just end up being obsolete.

LOL, FAIL!

I do like it when we can have 100% drop. But then again... it's a good way to farm DM5 especially for low lvl miners.
Are u guys ready to sacrifice DM5 and have to mine/buy them? :p

The weekend has passed, dev response please!

*lights up the Rukkirii signal*

quick everyone, draw out chocolate bars. women are suckers for chocolate.

Obviously a secret signal for changing defence strategy, you can clearly see him looking at every team member and making sure they noticed the signal while moving backwards to defensive position :D

One could also assume that this secred strategy name is "clean that pussy like a monkey!"

P.S. now if that doesnt get devs attention then i dont know what will lols

Maybe we should try with catboys and male elvaans for ruk...!

With so many likes I'd at least expect a dev response >_>

I wouldn't be surprised if the dev response was to add in more content where the chances of getting anything you want is just as bad or worse. Their hilarious response to many people not liking the "top 20 provisioner" nonsense and having to have a PT of 8 to do Hamlet Defense was to add a reward to the "top 3 provisioners" and no changes to entry requirements for Hamlet Defense.

I long for the days of FF11's terrible drop rates, because they represented a veritable horn of plenty in comparison to this travesty.

I totally agree, and I'm sure the majority of the community feels the same way about totem drop rates.

God speed to you OP here is a thread a guy made about primal drops and it took 11 pages for a reply http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...050#post616050 and then 19 pages later it turned into a shit storm http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...874#post632874

On another note I completely agree with everyone here, I don't care if it's 100% drop on totems, charms etc. or a new item that drops in place of weapons that can be exchanged for a weapon of your choice just give us something! I've been running the Moogle fight a lot; trying to get an axe, but all I've had drop so far in the past two weeks is four nut charms and a fork (which is totally useless to me). A member of my linkshell however; has received not one but two direct axe drops on the same runs as me, this makes me want to scream! especially seeing the second axe get discarded... the amount of times I've run that stupid fight now I should have a damn axe!

I am amazed yet honored my quote has become your sig, thank you.

i have yet to start with the primals. hopin it wont be too painful..

Not to make u afraid or anything, but... it will be. :p

... at least, it's a great way to farm DM5. :lol:
