FFXIVARR Lower stats for token items

[sharazisspecial]

Arent new players already finding it difficulty to join groups. Because people are running their dungeon groups in their small cliques and linkshells(terrible community seriously) . They wont invite new players to their groups. In ffxi it took too long to find groups as well.

Isnt ifrit and moogle outdated compared to garuda and darklight. Also materia melding makes lower tier dungeon drops obsolete . Also there is the fact that newer/casuals player cant afford triple melded gears.

The question should be
Is Yoshida and the higher ups satisfied with having a very grindy model but smaller hardcore/diehard ff fan niche group of suscribers
versus
Having much larger amount of suscribers but having a model that is less grindy by pumping out those content updates but with some negatives such as outdating content with weaker gear.

Because very low drop rates will push out alot of potential players. Especially ones who didnt like ffxi's model.

The reason it's hard to find groups for things is not because of drop rates. It's because the level of competency (in gear and skill) required for things like Garuda and speed running dungeons is far higher than you'll find in most random players. Most people don't want to deal with pick-ups so they form statics, people they can trust to play well and get things done. This will always happen, unless the content is so easy that any random group can do it no problem.

The issue isnt them being new players, the issue is they cant play their job, dont want to listen or just plain dont want to put effort into much of anything. This is not WoW, we dont need a FF game thats in anyway, shape or form like WoW. From all your post it seems you are in the give it to me know crowd and refuse to do anything that requires some effort. Again if you dont want to work or put effort into obtaining what ever it is you want you dont deserve to acquire it!
