1.21 accessory system

[syntaxlies]

That's not at all what this post is saying and you know it. People still don't understand 1.21 system is better than currently, but then again this is the generation of MMORPG gamers who think Quantity > Quality, which is why they lie to themselves that kill quests in new MMOs are content.

Current system if you want to wear accessories that mattered..you were limited to 2 rings and at best 1 wrist slot, let alone your neck slot and no earrings or any order.

In FFXI, no matter the stats you could equip everything.

In 1.21, you lose an earring, wrist and 2 rings lots but can equip everything no matter the stats.

It resembles FFXI's system already, since XI was used as an example.

actually that is what the post is saying, he said its garbage because in
ff11 was better and he thinks we should have more slots to be better then 11

FFXI accessory system was better then ffxiv 1. 21 is going to be, you could wear two different earrings, two different rings, a necklace and one set of bracelets... You can almost do that in 1.21 except you you have to wear double the earrings? I'd say we are moving from a better system to a garbage system.

FFXI: Neck, 2 Earrings, 2 Rings

FFXIV Post 1.21: Neck, Wrist, Earring, 2 Rings

It's almost the exact same thing...

As far as comparing FFXIV's accessory system pre and post 1.21... right now you get to wear 3 high end accessories at most. Post 1.21 we get to wear 5 total and each individual piece will have either boosted stats or more relevant stats.

So heres your choices!

1.20 = 3 good pieces MAX = 12 slot points
1.21 = 5 BETTER pieces, with enmity & gathering/crafting stats


Sorry but HOW DO YOU THINK WHAT WE HAVE NOW IS BETTER THAN WHATS COMING?

Yeah, I don't see it either. We could have kept the old system, IF and only IF they had given slot point increments at certain levels to allow for more higher-level accessories to be equipped, but since they didn't, well a better system is coming in place.

I don't post a lot and this is completely off topic, but I grinned so huge when I read this.

Thanks blizzard. Hopefully FFXIV 2.0 will be so successful it can undo some of the damage WoW has caused to the genre.

Edit: Hahahahahaha, who am I kidding?

5 accessories > 3 accessories, I can only 3 rings and I am at my slot cost limit. This new system makes us able to equip more accessories, with better stats it is paticularly a huge update for DoW/M because they can get crafting attributes which they currently cant.

Also the new DoW/M stats are a nice boost enmity+ on a ring will be awesome for GLA/PLD.

If I was simple minded I could accept the poor system of duplicating earrings in each ear however the option to have two different earrings sounds more appealing to me. but most of the posts on this forum are all for making this game generic and bland.. I hope 2.0 is a little more colorful then most of your comments.
