Drop Rates of mounts from Extreme primals & Dungeons

[Snow_Princess]

Wait...so when I was doing a full time extensive college program and maintaining high, if not perfect, grades....and still finding time to farm the primal birds and do my weekly stuff including tomes AND a raid static....that's inhuman? How did I manage that then?
I mean throwing in raiding 2-3 nights a week as well I must be a gaming goddess at this point to get all that done...?

Like I said you could do an hour a day later when they nerf the drop rates and you'll probably win a bird after a couple weeks of just joining farms once in awhile.

You could even just do an hour every few days and you'd still get the bird within a month probably.

I mean you ignore the fact that you can slowly work towards it at any pace. So this seems to be a "I want it NOW" problem, not actually a "it takes an inhuman amount of time" problem. I mean I am living proof right here that it isn't an inhuman amount of time needed.

Maybe you have inhuman luck on other things, no idea, out it takes too much time as is to get weekly drops and weekly tome caps to put in other large time investments. It is TOO MUCH TIMER!!! to require doing 99 times of 1 thing, and that is assuming no one wipes, and ofc you are going to run into wipes, People managed to wipe on A1S and a few groups fail to DPS check meet it even though i260+

Why are you posting this? telling me what I have time for? I mean... it sounds like you are better then me so therefor it is not an issue because you manage to fit x , y ,z + weeklies. I do not have the time resource to be spending 10 hours running the same DF 99 times for a mount, that is ridiculous, that is the same as "no content" for me since people want to pull "rare rng = content (I disagree with that.

It is not "I want it now" it is " I want access to it". Running the same thing 99 times is no access, my mind is blown people are defending this system!!!!! I thought the 99 token thing was a joke, like something that isn't supposed to be there.

I know it's not your topic, never said it was. You are also welcome to your opinion, and requires no one's approval. It's also my right to disagree, which I do wholeheartedly. No required approval for me either. You're making a lot of assumptions out of nowhere and it's confusing me greatly. I'm not drowning anyone's opinions out, people may feel as they wish. That doesn't make me agree with you, or others (who I'm not seeing many of) in this thread. Your argument about WT makes 0 sense. PF is there to make things go faster, which you seem to be a fan of. Everyone generally is, and PF also allows people to do things as they see fit. Wanna run things synced? Go nuts. Wanna run it unsynced? Enjoy. The tools are there to do as you wish. You just need to actually put in the effort. In an MMO, effort = reward, but I'm beginning to think this is your first rodeo. If I'm wrong, then that's fine. You just lack the patience for one.

Someone said "adding mounts reduce queue times" so my reply to that is queue times are still hugely long for them, people only PF, so it isn't an argument to support this token system.

The other thing is the mount that drops Ala mhigan mount. You can't reasonably get that EVER! (because how the DF works) because you already at the max sync, till they lift the undersized requirement for 5.0. The drop rate on that HAS to be an oversight, the drop rate or access to it with other means should be done, surely you can at least agree to that?

That's your problem not the game's problem. There are many things to do in the game and they are not expected to be completed in full each week. You are expected to decide what is important to you and allocate your time accordingly. To say everything is important and you should be able to complete everything before each reset is unreasonable (and IMO indicates other issues). Many people here have given you great suggestions on how you could manage working on the mounts without spending all of your time running EX primals but you continue down the path of everything having to be your way. Reminds me a bit of Veruca Salt now that I think of it. So I propose that you go out and create your own MMO that you can design any way you desire as obviously FFXIV isn't meeting nor will it meet your expectations.

You cave to cap each week or fall behind because how the game is designed, there is no roll overs??? >.> =/ your post makes no sense

What do you mean by the last part?:
“We’re not worried about the concurrent users. We look more to the daily active users and the monthly active users.”

That is what the dev said, maybe you need to "go out and create your own MMO that you can design any way you desire as obviously FFXIV isn't meeting nor will it meet your expectations."? Make one with huge hours of grindy since that is what you like?since the dev team of FFXIV does not share your vision???
