Guildleves Reform info up

[nRosenberg]

sounds great to me.. so in terms of progression changes in 1.18 we'll see:

1. Subquests with SP
2. Quest Hubs
3. Dungeons
4. Reformed Guildleve system

and probably:

1. Camp areas with respectable SP (likely if they're starting the Guildleve reform)
2. More NMs with cooler drops

Feeling optimistic!

Yoshi-P said in Letter IX or something that hubs will probably be held off until 1.19. Did I miss something o.o?

The mob cities are being held off until 1.19, but 1.18 should bring in the quest hubs.

He means the beastmen outposts for 1.19

Beast tribe quest hubs are 1.19, regular region ones were said to be 1.18
But as always, we'll see

Lol, you can't do either of those things as it exists currently (at least on the leves that grant mark rewards) so i'm not sure why he felt the need to clarify that you won't be able to do it after the patch, if that's what is meant.

Because leves have never given bonus SP at the end...
Like the guild tasks.. You get bonus SP for whatever class you're on when you turn in the required items... but with guildleves, if you're not DoW/DoM when you complete, then you don't get the bonus SP rewarded at the end as opposed to SP from killing MOBs which has always been battle classes only

Hope all the cry baby's are happy there goes all the good ways of getting SP

We can't really say that until we see how much the SP bonus will be and how much it is affected by how well you perform during the leve

So how come in all the Guildleve adjustments they've never tried to make them more...FUN? Mob AI really needs to be improved to make guildleves and playing this game in general more fun. But how about adding bosses to the end of some guildleves, or having some leves specifically for fighting popped NMs?

I really wish guildleves were more like ENMs in FFXI. Those were really fun objective based quests and had great boss fights at the end. They were always fun and very rewarding, I couldn't wait for the timer to be up to do them again with my friends.

Right now I log on from time to time to try to play the game...I start a guildleve and I have to force myself to finish it and I don't feel any satisfaction when I complete it.
