Make FFXIV more like FFXI and less like WoW

[Magis]

I didn't even notice your name till you mentioned mine but now that you mention it and I noticed your name...

HOLLY CRAP! Manaleak, it has been years.

I guess this rings a bell to you also... Vandork? HAHAHA

Guess which server I was on.

Just goes to show how memorable FFXI really was.



Well yeah it really was that hard to earn. I think the no life only really applied to those who got it fast, I got mine slowly over the period of something like 6 years.

My reaction to the first Maats cap I ever saw Was the feeling of WOH! /shocked.
Also to Manaleak, this is an extremely old screenshot of my character but I am sure you recognize my dragoon in this gear.


Also to those who don't think Tanaka is awesome.

He has a Maats cap and a K-club!

For those who don't know the K-club was also one of the rarest items in FFXI and was the most expensive item gil could buy ranging from 40-100mil depending on the time frame and which server you bought it on. The item could turn your single hit auto attack into an attack that attacks 1-8 times per auto attack, if you had this club you were able to basically spam weaponskills.

In FFXI you couldn't spam your weaponskills like you can in FFXIV because you only gained TP by hitting your enemy or by getting hit, because you attacked alot more often this TP would build up at an much faster than normal rate using the K-Club.

In FFXIV over powered items just won't even exist, isn't that kind of lame?
Wouldn't you like to see some rare items?
I always found it fun. I think it's a shame that nothing is even rare in FFXIV, that everyone can get everything, that no ones gear is different or special in the game.

Sure with Vanity players will all look different but all there stats will be the same lvl 90 gear.

I capped a bunch of 1-handed weapon skills in less than a day pairing it with a K-club on my Nin. With fast weapons the animation couldn't keep up with the number of hits. Granted, the joy of getting one with my longtime in-game friend evaporated when she decided to keep it, server transfer, and sell her account. There's a flip side to every coin.
