Change Alexandrite's "Morbid Motivation" for DR High please

[BobbinT]

the new dungeons are pretty faceroll easy so i still dont see the problem or the issue other than you can't plow through DRE in 15 minutes like the old ones anymore. Besides, the last paragraph from the OP shows that it was about "quickness" of obtaining alex.

Don't think I said it was hard or easy anywhere on my 1st post. Nor it was about quickness since other methods, save for FATEs, are still in high demands for other content, no matter how fast you earn them. This is especially critical since you also need crafting mats from soldiery too.

And yes, I'm very much aware of the 100 soldiery reward from CT since I do spam them for my Zodiacs too.

If my OP somehow confuses you, you can refer this comment:

It's about this particular quest and how it's no longer balanced for the reward that it offers.

This pretty much sums up what I meant in the 1st place.

honestly, if you do your daily map quest, thats 1 free alex, then do your DRE, DRHL, DRLL, DRstory, you net somewhere around 400 soldiery for another map. thats 2 maps daily. Factor in daily and weekly hunts and thats like another one or two per week. So even king casual, you can earn roughly 17 alex per week just doing dailies. thats in the ballpark of 68-70 alex for the month...i'm sure you can get 75 in less than a month if you work at it.

That's a bit overkill IMO, even for casual standards. lol

Oh look, it's this guy clearly not reading the topic again.

It's honestly a wonder that he's as successful at the game as he claims.

Oh look, it's someone who can't fully think out a change, what a surprise!

Yes, changing it to High Level roulette, to force you to run dungeons that drop less rewards (both gear/material/tomestones) and are less populated than Expert Roulette is a good idea. Oh wait no, that's a terrible idea.

Less reward? Mind you that the drops like 2* crafting mats (peacock ore, coke, animal fat, etc) are still in high demand, and recently checked market that they went up again for some reason, despite the lowered GC seals needed to acquire them. And gears also in high demand loot for GC seal turn-ins, or in my case, desynthesis. It's not all about tomestones, which is not my main concern in this thread.

And you sir, either you are obviously bored and need hardcore challenge, or clueless. lol

Never understood how people are stuck on alexandrites of all things. Have had all I need for the one Novus I want, for like two weeks now. And about two-thirds done with the melds, because I can't be arsed to SB that much for random luck or sell my soul for materia. I mean, really. How is anyone complaining about not having enough alexs - and not about not having the necessary materia? @.@

*shrug* for me the alex has taken longer to procure than the gil for the materia I've needed. But then again, I tend not to use IVs for melds.

lol, whatever, let's just shrug off the fact you were way off the mark on what the thread was about and pretend nobody saw it.

For the record, I usually have an easier time getting in the HL queue because there's more dungeons for it to run. *shrugs some more* Believe me, there's no shortage of people doing either of these roulettes.

The biggest problem I have with this is WHY WOULD YOU DOWNGRADE THE PREVIOUS EXTREME DUNGEONS TO HARD STATUS?!?!!?

The biggest hope for this patch for me was to get more variety in the alex roulette but NOOooo they had to mess that up by keeping it to only 3 dungeons you grind over and over again.

Do you understand how many times an average person needs to do one of these dungeons in a row to get through the alex phase? Who on earth would think grinding in only 3 places for months is a good idea? Get a GRIP!

I don't care how hard they are I just want that quest to include more possible dungeons to grind please.

[Drako]

I can agree they should move the quest to high level. Also though, as mentioned in a few other threads, the existing dungeons that show up in high level need to be split up into two separate groups at the very least. These two things should occur at the same time. Move alex map quest to high level, and high level being split into two groups(high and medium?)

Just make it give 2 maps/alexandrite instead and leave it as expert.

Good god you are going to hate the next step, Nexus lights...

Heck you can SB even farming hunts. Shouldn't all that yield enough to get the necessary alex too? @.@

I'm not "stuck" on alexandrite. I only just got my animus weapon last weekend. Before that, the only way to get alexandrite was with Allied seals, and I was just saving them up. I wasn't a very active hunter before getting my animus. But i'm also not complaining. I'd be perfectly happy if this quest stayed with expert roulette.

Sorry Op, going to have to disagree with moving "Mordid Motivation" to HM dfs. the devs themselves have always stated that Zodica/Nexus weapons were NOT for everyone and that ONLY some players would achive them. With that being said , doing "1" Ex Df a day shouldnt be that big of a problem. I feel for you but coming from a Player like myself (2 Zodiacs, 1 Nexus and many Atmas) who did this quest without the aid of hunts or nerfs to Atmas. "Its A SLAP in the face" to me and All the other players who have done this quest. Please reconsider your stance on this . This quest has been nerf'ed enough, anymore and you might have to HAND out nexus/Zodiac weapons for free.
