[REQUEST] Please let us do POTD Floors 100+ Solo or Matched Group

[Alleo]

I don't mean do them for the exp. I mean do them for the accursed hoard.

I am just not really sure why SE should care so much about people farming it efficiently for accursed hoard if they allowed to start directly for 101. They already showed that they dont care much for the long term value of an item and these hoards have RNG behind them so even if you farm dozens of them you still only might get some firework.

And why should SE or anyone even care if people want to bash their head against it with randoms? Just make it so that you had to at least once finished floor 51-100 without any k.o and after that you can try 101+ with a matched party that also managed to do so. They could make it that if you have a party wipe you will start again at 101 but if your party win you can try to find people that are also on this floor. This would still make it quite punishable if you loose but not so much that you have to start from 51 again..

I dont have many people right now that are interested in doing this and even if I find enough people we would have to go through 51+ without any k.o. (and d/c counts too..) and then start the grind of the 101 floor. The problem is not that you need a fixed party or have to start again at 51 if you die..the problem imo is that its both of these condition that we have to meet at the same time...If this is truly savage than most people would have needed quite some time anyway to get through it even if they have fixed party but started at floor 101/111 and so on like all the floors before that..it kinda feels like its not truly savage (maybe just the last 50 floors) and that they needed some artificial gate to lower the completion rate.

Agree op, my reasons:
1.Many FCs are dead, it's very hard to find people now.
2.In JP server, Japanese players don't like those English speaking players, they call us "外人“ （foreign guy）
3.I am just too lazy to make a group
4.This game is not FFXI/FFXIV 1.x, it's theme park, everything should be cute, easy, fast & soloable(DF),

Yoshi, just put it in DF,
I am not trolling, i am telling the fact, & I am realistic.
I haven't touch potd 100+floor yet because of these reasons

You're kidding, right?

I'm pretty sure someone already posted this but you *can* do it solo. You just cant have any deaths and have to do it solo all the way down from floor 51.

[ServerCollaps]

I dont know if anyone mentioned it yet, but in floors 101+ phoenix feathers are replaced with potsherds, which means that you'll get a potsherd every 2 or 3 chests, which is a free tier 5 materia of your choice and counts as reward for doing the 51-100 part

letting people start in 101 would just COMPLETELY destroy the market value of those

Notice how mods are completely silent on the potd threads of late lol not even explaining to the players the reasoning to why they implemented it like they did

Are you surprised? This is how it works, they observe conversation, monitor feedback, relay info to the devs and in patch 3.46 we get any adjustments that the devs deem necessary based on feedback (In 3.36 we got adjustments to silver chests and +1+1 when you beat Edda as an example). The mods won't post unless they have any valuable information that needs to be shared.

This is normal policy, and is for the best so that conversation is not skewed and so that people don't misinterpret mod input as confirmed changes before the devs have even finalised the adjustments.

Not surprised at all but they could atleast explain to why they implemented it with horrible restrictions... mayb than we might understand or accept to why the did it

Potd will die within a month due to such harsh restrictions on even entering 101+ ppl will get tired of gettin to 190+ wiping n having to start from 51

Not talking about me i dont have the time to sit there n run 51 to 150+ in 1 session like most groups want.. im lucky to get 4 hours a day playing due to real life commitments

So its impossible for me to even attempt it due to rediculous restrictions they put in place
