Add lootboxes to the game that contain Edenchoir weapons

Some players have no time to spend in this game because of their jobs, why not add lootboxes in the Mog Station and on Expert Roulette so players who don't have time to spare can also get BiS weapons? This allows players to not have to spend so much time to clear content. People who don't want to pay can still gain the sense of accomplishment by clearing E8S normally. We can also reward hardcore gamers by making the lootbox tradeable and have a very low drop rate in Expert Roulette so they can sell Edenchoir for gil.

To prevent abuse, just make lootboxes only drop a week after world first clear.

Is it even bait anymore?

No, I use Versatile Lure.

Ok, i have to give you that one, it made me cackle.

Add lootboxes to the game for $5 a box that have a chance to contain a month of game time as a rare drop and remove all other means of purchasing game time.

Might as well, tbh. The game already gives out 500 gear to people who never step inside a savage raid. Why not give them everything?

That you have to wait after the fact and those people will be lower come December when they need to wait again while people who do Savage get higher gear. Do you guys not get "catch up" periods?

That would make this game illegal in some countries.

4/10, a triumph compared to recent entries.

Technically, these already exist, so congrats you won, lol.

Just remember that most of them will just be fireworks and glamour prisms. Hope you don't mind spending real cash to have a purple gem over your head for a few seconds.

The other 80% of endgame content that isn't savage or ultimate and sees increasing ilvl requirements every patch because people will grind gear they don't need, which keeps them occupied and subbed...

This isn't complicated. This is basic design philosophy with respect to modern MMORPGs.

Yeah, the financial reasons are obvious of course. Non-raiders are the majority in this game. Obvious they pay subs so SE wants to give them welfare gear now and then to keep them happy. I get that. I'm just saying from a gameplay perspective it makes zero sense to give non-raiders access to raid gear when they have zero use for it nor have they earned it in game.

Better gear will always be useful for any and all max level duties that do not have item level sync.

That said, there is already augmented tomestone gear in FFXIV, so not having the actual savage raid gear is not really a big deal either way outside of wanting a dyeable version for glamour.

The best part of the "welfare gear" comment comes from the fact that the upgrades to said gear are in the raids LOL

Loot boxes are dead. The writing is on the wall. EA is getting sued across multiple nations, including most recently Canada, regarding them being gambling for children.

Lootboxes would indeed not be ok for the reason that many countries did start to handle the gambling for real money problem.

Instead, why not sell directly the weapons and all armors pieces ? Since the pf is full 24/24 with forbidden by the TOS RMT savage runs sellings, wouldn't it be a good way to get rid of them that SE begins to legally sell the same thing way cheaper ? If getting your shiny savage weapon was for something like 9.90 euros in the mogstation, all the RMT for the same thing at x00 euros would disappear. With kinda the same reasoning as those who want to bring the equivalent of Wow tokens into FF14 to hurt all the RMT gold selling.

I see you're actually trying to bring discussion points to the topic at hand but I just want you to know you're replying to a troll thread. :)

This is his 9th troll post why is he still here

Exactly. Probably just sell an Edenchoir weapon for $10 each.
