Patch 3.38 Discussion

[Aquaslash]

Might as well with the Light farming aspect... It's a complete joke at this point... At least the Animus books are either a fun solo challenge, or helping with Lv50 dungeon queues... Light farming is just a formality, the final one I'm somewhat OK with given it can be a single run per thing, but the original one? It was a terrible stage originally, now it's terrible-er... A step above FATE farming if only by virtue of the fact that blitzing through a dungeon solo is entertaining at least a few times...

Light farming was a breath of fresh air compared to dungeon spamming and hoping for Zodiac drops. I did that step after the boosted drop rate ( but long before the automatic drops) and hated it THEN. I would have probably hurled my controller through the TV when it was fresh.

Funny story. While that step WAS fresh, but I wasn't playing the game yet, my nephew was over my house farming snowcloak for a drop. I think he was a couple hours in before I took over the TV in order to play Destiny, of all things. He didn't talk to me for a month after that. I thought it was retarded at first, but I was soon made to understand exactly why he was so assblasted; and in Snowcloak no less.

Seriously, screw that step...and Snowcloak too!</rant>

I just need them to leave out the f***ing crafted items. The A/B/S rank hunts for example could be made to drop stuff (no rng bs, make it 100% drops) and would make more sense. Even if people would be at each other's throats from early pullers.

Just no crafting please. Ever.

Now I'm kicking myself for not hoarding up more of those beast tribe tokens. I was expecting them to increase the token yield, not reduce the amounts needed >_>

[Dumbledoremd]

I have 100 moogle tokens been using the beast tribe to level my crafters has the tokens changed for it?

Eh, I hated pretty much all the Zodiac quests when they were fresh, with the sole exception of Alexandrite, though I hated the materia step (they're the same? Pfft, I enjoyed getting a map to do for my Relic, wish the Unidentifed items worked on a similar principle; beast tribe currency > get map in their stronghold > fight some trash > get unidentified item). It's pretty much been down hill since Titan, though nowadays? Animus books and the Zodiac drops... I quite enjoy... They're 100% drops so it feels like I'm actually doing a quest, though a lot of my enjoyment stems from the Undersized Party option; Soloing those dungeons ends up being a lot more fun than the new dungeons...

With the Anima quests I can't see the same happening... FATE grinds out right suck the life out of me, the 10 dungeons was probably the best we're getting (even if I can't solo the Vault, I can tank it as Summoner when the DF gets me a non-tank...), Unidentified items are a currency grind... Aetheroil or whatever? Currency grind, though Crystal Tower was a welcome change of pace. Umbrite? Currency grind... These stages aren't going to get better with age like spots in the Zodiac Saga did...

No. Max level moogles would let you get an unidentifiable every other day (9 tokens per day) and now Vanu and Vath are being made to work the same way (3 tokens per day, an unidentifiable every other day at 6 tokens.)

I have 20 of each unidentified on my alt. I waited to turn them in for news on this patch so now i have enough for two weapons. I still need crystals for a second and crafted items but that should be easy enough to get. I guess towers quests are in my future again for the oils.

[Voltyblast]

The anima step is now what it should have been from the very beginning.

Couldn't agree more (especially when 230 is so easy and 240 is much less tedious)

You don't have to craft now. You can buy all the items with GC seals. Not to mention, the prices of these items will plummet on the MB now. So...

[Gleipni]

But still no new content...apart from raid,there is no many things to do,they should focus on content unstead of make everything easy.
I have a bitter taste now that i see people can get 240 weap that easy,guess i should go back to EVE.
