    Moth, I love ya but I have to partially disagree with you.

    I play this game a lot, probably the majority of my free time, but unfortunately, I have to pay for my house, internet, computer, subscription (eventually), food, etc. Since my parents aren't rich, this means I need to work. I work a 9-5 job, which means if there's an NM that only spawns between the hours of 9:00am and 5:00pm EDT, I will NEVER see it. That means there is content that I, a working stiff, will never get the chance to see. I admire your position of "those who are the most dedicated should reap the greatest rewards," and to that point I agree, but I do not like the idea that because I'm a responsible adult and I go to work every day to support myself, I get tagged with the label "baddie", as though I should quit my job and play XIV til I get evicted.

    What? The window moves dude. Like it could be in your time for a few days or a week. The point is YOU AREN'T SUPPOSED TO CAMP IT EVERYDAY.

    It was only a hypothetical. Since we're talking about stuff that has not been implemented in XIV, everything we say is hypothetical. My point is that people with 8 hours or less of free time per day need 1337 g34rZ too.

    I totally agree.
    Then go camp when it's in your window? Normal 24 hour NMs in XI were 21~24 hour meaning you don't need to to be there the whole time.

    It wouldn't be fair to anyone if it always popped at 4 am. So I don't think that will happen.

    This is exactly why it shouldn't be 24 hour repop. It would be just as well making it 1-2 hour repop and having the NM be on the more difficult side. People still wipe on Mosshorn, Dodore, and Great Buffalo for cying out loud (when fought traditionally).

    For those who don't find these NMs challenging with 8 people or less can use an upgrade, but 24 pop doesn't combat this need to be challenged in the way we want it to be. It just challenges your commitment to virtual items, and if your virtual items can ONLY be obtained at 4am and you set your alarm to get up to acquire them, you need to rethink what you're doing with your life.
