PSA: You can pay to win in Bozja

Who needs to grind 25 mettles when you have the pay2win mount? If you haven't noticed the pay2win mount gives +1 speed in every map including Bozja. This is a huge oversight by Square Enix that should be fixed immediately.

This is something I would expect from a KMMO, not a big name mmo like FFXIV. Imagine if WoW did something like this!

I hope this was helpful :)

I know the phrase of "don't take the bait", but if you're going to troll at least do it proper, all mounts are set to a fixed speed in bozja. It's a speed penalty compared to no mount speed buffs, actually, makes them only slightly faster than sprinting.

Actually as of this patch, MPK is *sorta* right, as now mounts can go faster in Bozja. The patch notes say:

"Players can now increase mount speed.
Purchase a Bozjan Southern Front Riding Map from the Resistance quartermaster at Utya's Aegis (X:14.2 Y:29.7) to increase the speed of mounts on the southern front."

So yes, without getting the riding map, the motorcycle does go faster in the zone then your other mounts. But the price of the map is pretty low, I think it's like 25 clusters. Not really a big deal either, considering that it's not too terribly difficult to get to where you need to go though aetheryte shards.

See Bozja content is so bad that people don't even realize you can get +1 speed from mettles! I don't blame you but that's what this PSA is for!

It's like they didn't even bother reading the patch notes because ReAdInG iS hArD!!

For someone who hates anything non-Ultimate, you sure spend a LOT of time moaning about Bozja. We get it, you hate it, do your stuff outside of it if you decide to do the relics(though with your attitude towards anything not Ultimate, no idea why you would even bother...)

The speed boost that the SDS Fenrir offers is only available in areas where said boosts are already available. So basically, you get to ride around zones where riding maps are purchasable for and are able to take advantage of that boost. Bozjan Southern Front's mount speed has been fixed from the start. The latest riding map doesn't change that, and it provides the same boost to SDS Fenrir as it does to every single mount one can use. All mounts have been on even ground in there, before and after this addition.

Aw man I thought you got banned. Guess I'll just have to keep reporting you

I didn't even know the SDS Fenrir had a faster speed since the only people I see using it do so for the cool motorcycle.
