Wandering Beatmen?

I apologize if this isn't the right section for this type of suggestion, but it seems like this was most appropriate.

People who played FFXI knows exactly what I am talking about.

I remember during fights I had to keep constant watch of any nearby beastmen just in case they wander over and aggro. I would sometimes run back a bit if it started to move and my HP wasn't high enough.

It was something that kept many players aware when fighting or exploring.

P.S. Also I may be alone on this, but I miss the lack of maps in ffxi. When you didn't have a map of an area, you needed to use your memory and wits to get out. (Like getting lost in Yhoator Jungle. It was so fun to try and find my way out while sneaking past the beastmen. Right when I lost hope, I saw familiar surroundings and found the exit)

The localization forum is for text errors in the game, so no, you're way off the appropriate forum section.

It's ironic that you ask for this, as there used to be random high-level monsters (not necessarily beastmen though) scattered about in areas that they didn't necessarily belong (like the high-level Peiste right outside Ul'dah) that were removed many patches ago because people complained that it made the game too hard for newbies or something.

Also, I too am not a huge fan of always having the map to things.

I actually thought this thread was going to be pointing out some sort of text error in the game, since the title reads "Beatmen" XD

What's a wandering beatman? One of those fellows who walks around with a boombox?

Hang around Lasthold for a while, you'll see them eventually, just wandering around.

this is what i was thinking

The sad part is I noticed the typo once It was posted. Sorry for having it in the wrong section.

However, It would be amazing if they ever have an event in FFXIV where there are NMs that are referred to as the "Wandering Beatmen"
