Change to Favor nodes is coming!

http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...27#post3221527

From reddit,

"An adjustment to the the time duration and the pop chance of Favor nodes is on its way, it's to make it less frustration and more enjoyable."

Yeah I hope this is true. Wish I knew Japanese so I can confirm it myself. If so this a step forward that was really needed.

Time to save ALL my Gathering Tokens... I just hope this comes soon :)

Good evening.

Thank you for the great amount of feedback.

Adjustments to the duration and the appearance rate of hidden items of favors are scheduled so everyone will have more time to play.

For now, please wait a little longer.

Edit: Here's the English version of the announcement.

We are planning to make adjustments to the duration of the Favors purchased with red scrips and the frequency of the Concealed Nodes spawn so that it'll become easier for everyone to participate. Once we have more information, we'll make further announcements. We appreciate your patience while we work on these adjustments.

Guess I mistranslated the last part regarding play time/participation. Oops. :x

ユーザーはテスターではないんですから、リリースするときには最低でもしっかりと遊べる範囲で調整をお願いしたいものです。

全てを完璧に調整しろとはいいませんが、遊びたいと思う仕様にはしていただきたいです。

PLEASE tell me that's not the actual fix. Please say you made that up. Please? I don't want my (already pathetic) returns cut by 1/3...
