    Greetings from cornelia





    3 of the quotas maxed out in less than a minute, everything else was pretty much maxed by the end of half an hour. I luckily got enough seals to get my two rings though.

    I dont think the fact that there is a quota system is the issue. The biggest issue here is that this system is literally the only way to get a decent amount of seals without spending a ridiculous amount of time trying to get them. The other methods involve spending 15-20 minutes to get a minimal amount of seals. This has caused everyone to jump onto the bandwagon to turn crap in. Even if you do hit the cap, if you come prepared you can still walk away with around 2-3k seals. This would take, if ytou were doing leves, on average about 6 hours to get. 6 hours of pretty much just standing there one shotting weak mobs and waiting for them to respawn.

    Okay, okay... Anyways, yeah... I wake up 3 hours early, make sure I get there in time with all my items. Then low and behold, there is a huge mass of people! Now I got lucky! I managed to trade in and get a whopping 12 seals! 12 freaking seals, gaiz!? AWESOME!

    Then it hit me... Why am I wasting my time getting up so gosh darn early? I could of just went to treespeak and did some GC leves and I probably would of had around 5,000 or 7k seals by then. Simply, put... I was outraged!!

    Then I told myself, "Forget it, make a sandwich and everything will be okay."

    ...till next week when it all starts over again.

    It's working fine the point is to fight with other players for a slot at getting item in. I know how pain in the ass this could be but still i think it's fine there other way for you to get seals SE just need to release more and this wont be a issue at all.

    I agree that the concept of competing with other players in order to get seals is nice, but it's just clearly broken if the fight itself lasts a bunch of seconds per week...
    The thing just isn't balanced, if they wanna keep the server quotas they have to either increase them or lower the reset timer.

    Lower the reset or give more is the best way or set a limit per person.

    So what's the exp and gil reward like? Is it good? Not that I'm going to do it since my crafting classes are pretty low level right now.
