Dear Yoshida… PLEASE DON'T IGNORE US.

[DivineKismet]

There are always going to be those players who blast through the content and put in lots of time to grind everything. No matter what developers do some people will never be satisfied. Its a balancing act and I think Yoshida and his team have been doing an admirable job so far. Delaying the new weapon chain just goes to show that they do listen and are taking everything we say into account. Just because YOU don't always get the results YOU want when YOU want them, doesn't mean they aren't listening.

AMEN. People just want stuff to get handed to them easily, ignoring as much of the hard work as possible.
IMO if you dont want to grind for animus go do Coils to get the better weapon and gears too, or is it that these people are incapable of doing endgame content that they troll the PD/DEVs just so that they can get handed a weapon that is not even higher(ilv) than SecondCoils

I wouldn't say all of them are incapable but based on the lack of willingness to put in time im going to guess most are the wait for the echo buff types.... not the feedback i want influencing my entertainment tbh.

I think the issue isn't so much "incapable" of it or "lack of willingness", I would LOVE to do Binding Coil, but finding a decent group to go from the start is near impossible now, I postponed my bahamut runs when it first came out, because I was concerned with my own personal gear, I wanted to make sure I was holding people back as little as possible. i, however waited a little too long and by the time I WAS comfortable enough to put myself in there, there wasn't really a whole lot of people doing it that weren't "if you die you get kicked." on PF, now, I can use DF to go into it, but we all know how well that tends to work out in high level content. Granted this is just my personal experience, but I'm sure I'm not the only person in the world who chose to do things this way.

Also, before anythings said, I have my Atma weapon, and am just about done with my first book. it took me well over 90 hours to complete my atma weapon.

but you got it! And thats kind of the pro-atma side of things... stfu and do it. GG

as far as coil goes have you looked into FC's? i know alot of FC on my server atleast are still building multiple statics for things like coil. pugs are great for fillers but if your really interested in progression content i don't think pugs are a solid way to handle that. only because of the random factor. one day your may have a solid group the next you have 4/8 total derps and it just will not happen.

Not about getting it handed to you its about how BORING fate grinding is that only drops like 1/50th of the time. I tell you if I had to run around for 70 hours doing something fun I wouldn't mind it. but this. nah. grinding lev is way better. thank you!
