I love punching the horns off of goats...

it is one of the things that have this feel of actual accomplishment to them to add those actions to have certain effects. i leveled multiple dow/dom classes to get abilities to do this type of farming because you do not just go and kill a mob. i wish there were other mobs that would have incap drops that the dom's could do by themselves though. maybe the elementals or some other type of pure magic mob that the thm/con would have an incap ability to incap a part of them.

these are the types of things that make mmo/rpg games fun to me. it's not actually part of the game, but it is a fun side project that you have to put time and effort into being able to accomplish. i remember 7 staying in the casino there and playing for hrs raising and racing chocobo's. 8 hr after hr of card games. 10 and blitzball for days. those are the types of things i enjoy as a compliment to a game. i do not want those to become so engrossed that it has to be done, but having this kind of side projects will cure alot of boredom when there is nothing else to do.

granted the main story is my main draw, followed by the battle enjoyability, then side projects. it is a nice thing to add and would love to see more main story to draw the gamers back with alot of content updates. until then i do alot of these side quests that make you feel as though something is accomplished in the process other than wow i killed something else.

I like it because it feels like I'm doing something I can be proud of, as silly as that might sound.

For me, I take the horns, make them into horn glue, then take the horn glue to make Bronze Swallowtail arrows (which I can make at my level of carpentry, weaver for the fletchings, etc.).

So I'm kind of gathering my own resources and that makes me feel good, like I'm accomplishing something, making something salable out of basically raw materials across the board. Hunting goats for a specific item that I need to kill them in a special manner to acquire just adds to that.
