Open World Content.

Oh snap, Rokien! How have you been?

As for open world content, no, it's still an AoE spam, where it will continue to be so until they completely rework every class to not have those abilities. Only now, you can earn allied seals to buy good gear, so it makes it even more obnoxious how many people are doing it!

Are you forgetting they just added hunt NMs? Which is open world content that some FFXI players been asking for.

Hunts are not what people wanted, unless I'm totally reading every single complaint on them wrong.

Well, it sort of is. People wanted open world content, and well, this fits. People also wanted meaningful rewards from it, ie sands/oil in this case. They however didn't realize what would happen by asking for that. One of the fixes some have suggested is to make them like maps, ie force popped. That's not open world content. It just happens to be in the open world, the content itself is not open.

You had open world NMs, which some people asked for. Put some of the best top tier gear on it in the form of oils and sands. Then are surprised when the whole server is hunting these down because they offer some of the best rewards in the game. You asked for open world content with good rewards and should expect a high level of competition on hunting them.

Pretty sure that the people and I asked for NOTORIOUS monsters and not just push overs. Lets take a look at 1.0 for a second and its great buffalo. Not only did you have to gather a team for it but it also utilized crafters to make the best gear, unlike this game where crafters are no more than vanity. They actually help the good fight, but oh well

they brought back NM's but they are nothing more than glorified unlabled fates, they arent the same in 1.0 were u had to actually use strategy to win. everyone can attack them an get credit for rewards so they jsut spam fests like fates

They need to bring back claimed monsters.

It will just cause the same problems unless the rewards aren't top end.

Yeah GREAT IDEA!!!! People already get abused for pulling early if this came in the already toxic part of hunts would be amplified 1000%
