So why do we have to craft an expensive item for a CHANCE at a drop in Eureka Pagos?

[QuinceTaru]

1) A fundamental misunderstanding about what people like(d) about FFXI.
2) A stubborn refusal to acknowledge that FFXI only worked because gear had a tendency to last years, not weeks/days.
3) An outright stupid insistence on trying to play the nostalgia card.

I do think they are playing too much into the whole FFXI thing also, however if the eureka gear will last us to the next expansion it will be the longest lasting gear in ff14
