    It's amazing how "bad" the idea is yet these same people are still actively playing the game trying to obtain it. If the system was so messed up why keep pursuing it? Why not everyone stop and massively complain on the threads about it, like other subjects that made the game a horrible experience(this thread is far from massive...)? That goal of yours obviously has you addicted regardless of how annoying it is when you don't win. It's like those people that actively play the lottery for 60+ years of their life.
    Actually most of the people that I know who have legitimate concerns about FFXIV, and who are above the age of 18 with an IQ higher than mayonnaise are sticking around because they have high hopes for the future. This is all that matters currently.

    The fact is you don't need the gear what so ever. You can go into 2.0 never getting it and still be able to accomplish content without being gimped for it. Most MMOs balance their content around the "best" in game gear which is why it's so easy to obtain or more effort equals the closer you get to it. In FFXIV the gear needed to compete is thrown at you while the best is not. There is no tier style of gear like you would find in WoW/SWTOR to progress towards.
    While you don't need gear to complete content in this game atm why wouldn't you strive to better your gear? I don't know about you and your people but we have higher standards than doing content looking like a pack of scrubs. If that works for you then more power to you brother but the laughter you hear drifting over your shoulders is aimed at you (*'-').

    It's also amazing how people agree with the Nyzul Isle style of doing things. Oh how I remember so many people calling that a grind also. I might be ignorant for having a sense of understanding, but I know any system they add to obtain gear will turn from a luck based grind to a progressively long grind. If they increase the drop rates other bs will just be thrown at your face and a different group of people will complain about that.
    Nyzul Isle is a grind. Everything in an MMO is a grind to an extent the difference for some over others being the grind is more enjoyable. Nyzul was enjoyable because of it's random puzzleness, random rare spawn NMs and challenge to beat the clock with an epic battle every so often. But it was fun because it wasn't the same mindless drone run through each attempt.

    So yes, it is handing out a [I WIN BUTTON] if they allow the gear that's better than the current content to just be handed out. They would then have to balance content around said easy obtainable gear.
    When did I ask for it to be handed out? You are seriously like 8 hours late the conversation.

    .

    Don't throw mindless insults if you go on about something I never stated otherwise. Of course we all have high hopes for 2.0 and the other MMO communities think we're all insane for doing so.

    So your pack of "IQ higher than mayonnaise" are worried about laughter from other people on a luck based gear drop?

    "lololololol OMG LOOK GUYS THEY DON'T HAVE DL GEAR YET!!!! EVEN NUBBINS OVER THERE HAS IT!!! lololololol"

    Even though nubbins suck at the game and you could still TANK, DD, and HEAL better than him. You could still demolish content with less wipes than him. You can still do and run everything smoother and better than him and his lucky shell yet you are sad because they have better luck? Seriously Richard_BG? I'm starting to doubt you have such a "IQ higher than mayonnaise" if you let pre-school bs upset you.

    Ok and we currently don't have a "Nyzul Isle" style of content system yet. All MMOs have a luck factor for gear somewhere that is bs. Luck based system says hello. Hopefully later we will have better systems in place. That's what the thread should have be based on and not the QQ of not getting lucky on gear not needed.

    That is what you call a general statement since it wasn't aimed at you directly. If it doesn't apply let it go.
