To the people that want pop items. Wouldn't a gate item like Aquapolis work better? gather the stuff and instead of an open world spawn you can enter an instance. I just worry that you might end up with something like odin fate. In older games skills didn't have so much dependency on other skills. So open world lag just ment fire took longer, not that you lost stacks and buffs.
