Sorry Yoshi, but if you award the best weapon in the game by winning the lottery...

The worst thing about this is, so many people choose to ignore the inherent problem with trivializing the strongest weapons in the game and your completed anima weapons on a whim.

Keep ignoring it, and SE is going to think it's fine to do this, and soon every ultimate raid weapon is going to be trivialized by some other random piece of content they want us to run.

SE aren't physic. They need our voices and criticism. Otherwise this is just going to happen again, and people really will start leaving the game for better games with better systems in place.

A+ post. Seriously, SE listen to this guy.

Please do not. There was wisdom in enticing a piece of equipment with the endgame level accomplishment that has been asked for in odd patches for years. The argument that these weapons are more powerful in a shorter period of time (which is false for Raid weapons, which typical have about a six month lifespan anyways) goes against the desire of dedicated endgame players to have content beyond raiding to keep them occupied for more than their weekly lockout. Also creating content that entices players who have completed their raiding progression and are completed or mostly completed with their gearing from the raid also wanted some more sense of progress beyond Savage Raiding.

The Diadem 280 weapons satisfy these needs in this regard.

Do not disqualify the desire for continued progression simply because you dislike the manner in which it was executed. Please keep your arguments more nuanced than that.


Not that I agree with the elitism statically-reliant endgame 'progression' creates anyways - I do accept it as a reality of our game. Perhaps you should consider the catering to casual players, also a hallmark of this game, a continuing reality as well? Neither one of these has changed, and I doubt they will.

YOUR A TANK!?

Please don't go we need you, I didn't mean it I'm sorry.

In all seriousness we shouldn't be worried about the 280 weapon, it takes more luck than skill to get that item. Plus you can just have my 280 if you queue up with me please don't go.

I'm a tank as well, and also unsubbed.

You know the sad truth? People don't know what they want.
People ask for something, and then everyone whines.
:')

And even if they did know what they want, everyone wants something else.
Not everyone can be happy.

It's just about who whines the most, and people are whining a lot atm.
It's the first time they did it, they tried it. It wasn't like this in 2.0
And YoshiP already acknowledged it.
Maybe we can drop it. :')

The boss said so himself in the last Fanfast, "I TRUST NO ONE"

It has been 6 months since A12 Savage came out. That's more than enough time to have small increase in item level. At this point everyone who is still doing savage content is already outgearing the fight anyway.

...it was also just nine days after the final anima step.

Yea and it's not like you can just go and get the Coven weapon for every job in a week. It's completely random and extremely low drop rate. Relic weapon is still ideal.

What about all the amazing things in this game? Story, music, fun fights, friends, etc.
The numbers they set on items can break enjoyment on all of that? You're not interested in playing all the new content, exploring the Far East, being a samurai, etc. because they set a rare weapon to lv280...?
