Vote for 100% drop rate for primals on final week of FFXIV 1.xxx

I still think its amazing they took months, literally months, to confirm avatar weapons on 2.0; could have spent my time doing rivenroad.

I'm not thanking a soul for this information coming out just now.

They already listed out what is missable at lodestone, its not their fault people like you are so dumb and feel the needs to assume primals weapons are not going to be at ARR.

SE PLZ CONFIRM IF THORMOAN SUBLIGAR WONT BE AT ARR??????????????? I NEED MAH SUBLIGAR, STOCK DEH TEH SUBLIGAR.

Why all the hate? First of all, they listed missable achievements on the lodestone. Secondly, Yoshi himself is the one who said the primals would be in 2.0 in a different way than how we know them now and the ability to acquire their weapons may not be. It seems silly to venomously lambaste people for taking him at his word as if they were wrong for doing so.

It's more her attitude for blaming SE for everything when in the first place, it was them that assumed wrongly. What Majidah's post reeks of is just general bitching because she assumed that there would be no primal weapons in ARR, and grinded Primals, and now blames SE for that 'wasted time'. The problem is that SE never said it - it was her entirely own choice and assumption, so what she said is utterly disrespectful as a player. SE did not make any kind of mistake as far as I'm aware - they're not even entitled to provide us with such information until ARR strikes. And yet they do.

Except Yoshida said that the only real difference would be the way the primals play out (having different strats than they currently do), and that the aetheryte to get to said primal will be moving around constantly to prevent camping. They said nothing about drops changing, or primals being removed, or whatever other asinine ideas were running through people's heads. The missable content is the Goobbue, which SE had been nagging on was going to be removed.

They nagged so much that people actually complained about them warning you that you could miss an item completely.

Your memory is inaccurate. He made several specific statements about primal drops possibly not being available in 2.0. Here are two of them.

Q: Will new players who start playing after 2.0 get to experience the current main scenario? Also do they get to challenge instanced raids and primal battles that are available now?

A: First of all, please be aware that the main scenario and the Seventh Umbral Era aren't really the same thing. Players who start after 2.0 should be able to experience the former.

Regarding instanced raids, they will basically remain as it is and they'll be carried over to 2.0. Now with the primal battles, some plots are connected with the Seventh Umbral Era. I say that there is a good chance their appearance may change in 2.0. Some will remain the same, some won't. So basically, the current game balance and the current reward will only be available now. Some of those items already exist.

However, after version 2.0 launches, some content will be removed or changed for quests related to "The Seventh Umbral Era" as well as new Primal content. Expect this new content to introduce items and achievements that otherwise can’t be obtained in version 2.0 (or after).

Yeah it's this mentality that just makes feel like people are so selfish...

*You weren't here in 1.0, so they shouldn't make it obtainable in 2.0 because I'm a Legacy player! I got all the weapons to shut down that content so I can dances around noobs saying " haha hahahahaha, I have all these weapons and you don't!*

give me an F'in break (I'm quoting you because I agree with you). This IS still FFXIV and as such things that SE wants to keep in there (Primal Weapons so other people can get them as well in the relaunch) then so be it.. they are really awesome weapons to make to just be for "1.0 users", why not put it in 2.0 and gives people more things to accomplish in 2.0.

Primal weapons? LOL I thought using those meant you were bad at the game.

Hey moose, if you check on your posts at all, check the Raven thread you made in the worlds section. Cant seem to catch u online.

[Griss]

Hmm.

I wonder if there going to go back and add primal weapons for arcanist and future jobs/classes.

Really hope they change the loot system.. imagine having 3 or 4 more base classes - primals would be so annoying to get the weapons (and shields now) you want lol. Chance on a chance.

Hello everyone!

Don't worry! In A Realm Reborn you will still be able to obtain primal weapons, so if you haven't gotten one just yet, there will be opportunities in the future.

With that said, the development team is not thinking to change the drop rates to 100% since they will still be available in A Realm Reborn.

This brings up an interesting question, with the addition of ACN & SMN, will there be an "Ifrit's Grimoire" "Garuda's Thought" and "Misbehaved Mogbook"?
