PVP REWARDS SUGGESTION (FEAST)

[Melrot]

Feast is a gamemode flawed so badly, it lives or dies by the quality of FOMO rewards it has.

People who sacrifised their time getting the T100 rewards will defend it with all their strenght, since it has a prestige of showing off the armour/mount and they have the right of it. But that shouldn't be also the reason for them to stop any changes from future PvP.

Old rewards shouldn't be re-added. It's the Feast itself and reward aquisition in future PvP patches that should change.
The gamemode is so bad only few people dare to wing the time investment for the reward. It was always the "Get T100 or leave with nothing" competition.
- You are not guaranteed getting ANYTHING from it.
- You have backward progression.
- It is available only during season and only during specific hours, since not that many people queue for it off-time.

I am so glad they said they will put Feast on hold. The gamemode should be halted years ago.

The FOMO shouldn't be the ONLY reason why Feast still has any participants. Adding more will just be to feed the veterans with more exclusive rewards, while new people don't even have place for training off-season.

Agreed Melrot. Every season was different. Every climb was different. Some seasons were vastly more difficult than others, and the journey to the reward was different. Old rewards should be locked in a box like the legacy tattoo. Yoshi P expressed "that mount was the result of my efforts to enter the ranking at that time." Its a trophy and a memory, not just an item.


The future rewards system should be looked at however. Feast did not cater to enough tiered players.
Top 10 should be the mount/armor cosmetic reward
Top 100 - should be something smaller, house item or accessory
Top 1000 - a minion or emote something really small.
Unranked/Everyone - Actual combat gear with relevant stats to the current tier (grindable) (earned) not easily given, but an effort to receive.
at least this way people get something for playing the mode thats worthwhile and useful.

And after that quote 2 old Feast mounts got their 3rd recolors years later so I think nothing is off limits as long as its not the same color

[Rhos]

Most feast mounts have recolors. Hellhounds had 4 different recolors for 4 different seasons/season types. Armor sets have 2 variants/versions.

Nothing has changed Nanne. I for one respect Yoshi P's Decision, and will honor it. I just hope he honors it as well.

Correct if I am wrong but solo and team seasons happened at the same time so technically those were always available as 2 season cycles like everything so far. The chair mounts were originally in Stormblood seasons 7-8 and they then returned years later during Shadowbringers season 16. Same thing happened with the Magna roader too so Im guessing when Yoshi said that they wont return the old mounts he meant the specific colors of mounts so more recolors of any previous reward is always a possibility

[Rhos]

No the hellhounds are ancient. like season 3 and 4 LOL.

Recolors are fine to a extent. Long as its a "new" reward it's ight in my book. Just dont re-release the same item...thats a huge slap in the face to the champ of that season.


However.... do you really want the same reward being re-released over and over and over and over again? I would rather have new stuff come out. let's be real.

[Rhos]

4 mounts. 4 skins. 2 seasons. And thats season 3 and 4. which happened a long long long LOOOOOONG time ago. So its old news. I know alot of new ffxiv players are bringing up this whole "reskin happened so blah blah blah" but trust me, the og's seen this happen too many times. its nothing new lol. his answer was after this too not before.

[Rhos]

I did miss a few seasons between 6 and 14ish however. But if I recall, armor sets are always done in 2's other than the coats. The coats had four variants.
