1.17 NMs: Let's talk about them...

[Bittereye]

I have to say that they have made this game way too easy now. Dodore is a joke now. Nothing is challenging anymore... SE, please do not lower the difficulty anymore than it is. We could fight the older NMs pre 1.17 patch with 8 members at the harder difficulty. That was fun, strategic and challenging. Now we are forced to use 8 members but the difficulty was lowered. As a result they are not even fun to fight anymore. Its like an MMO on super easy mode. Most of us are from FFXI and want that challenge. It's what keeps us logging in. Im afraid to admit but if this trend keeps happening, people will not want to login anymore and begin to log back in to your older IP... FFXI.

I have to agree this game is becoming joke under Yoshi-P lead. Difficulty is lowering, more options for casuals - alright why not. But even some casuals players wanna challenge. All is joke now. You can stay and spam button unless mob die, while conj spam heal. Nothing is happening. Game is easier with every patch.

I think you could get a ancient, relic weapon like this from future NMs. Just 1key spamming - maybe just put autoattack on and go to prepare a tea while nm dies. conj will do the rest.

+ NMs now took majority over gatherers and crafters. Crafters and gatherers r20-40 were threw aside with insane NM pop, drop rate. My set of gems became worthless now when NMs drop all kind of rings and earrings, I sold them to npc so it saved my space, but I had this sour face, while doing that.

I hope someone will send this to dev. team. They re going too easy way, I dont like this at all. NMs are joke, 2 r35 - can duo NM r 49. My whole LS got their rings from NMs, no reason to SP GS when you cant sell the things.

Shame on what is happening from game.

THIS is what i've been saying since the very first letter from the producer. I kept a constant feedback (even before official forum) regarding every point they announce to try and prevent thid from happening. But we need more people that enjoyed the game before to do like you did...show that they are unpleasant with such changes.

Its like i said...these new NMs can be entertaining for midrank ppl...i myself like doing hunts and loved the repop rate...but the way they dealt with all loot part was very sad IMO...its like they are not part of this FF context since they follow the old concepts of archaic games instead of adjusting the things to the mechanics of this game.
