Petition: Longer instance cooldowns in exchange for better drop rates!

[Req]

all that in 2 hours or so, not counting breaks you make take in between each

24 hour cooldown is what i think woulda been fair on most everything

so you play as a group for 2 hours a day...that pretty much seems like a good ammount of time to me


when i say longer cooldowns it doesnt even have to be week cooldowns(like several games have) or even half week, you can base the cooldown on how long the individual instance is

Youre missing the point that half of that content isn't worth doing at the moment though, thats why im stressing it for the future. I was very generous with the amount of content people would do if there were 24 hour cooldowns. The reality of it at the moment though is alot of established linkshells already have most if not all of their ifrit/moogle weapons that they want and are closing in on finishing garuda. Darkhold hasn't been worth doing since they released the materia patch. That right there already knocks out half of the content most linkshells would do so it would basically just turn into hamlet/cutters/aurum every night for a little over an hour, which then would bring along the question of

"whats the point in paying 9.99 a month for this game when I only get to experience the content for an hour a night?"

I agree with you that the 24 hours is fair though, all i am saying is the content needs to last longer. I wouldn't mind it if each dungeon used the timer to its fullest instead of having to speed through it so we could be doing 2-3 things each night and it would take up an average nights worth of raid time.

yeah, we do need longer content, but in the end, thats another problem

Right now we have 30-60 minute timers, we obviously dont need those full timers
and you also can not use the fastest players as the basis for how long everything should take(ifrit should be based on 10 minutes, not 4, AV/CC on 40, not 20 and so on) cuz not everyone speeds everything, a majority dont
