Nothing and then they will try camping us again in 24 hours. TOD pls?

Because the "whole forum" is you and like 13 other people who either don't play or are still upset they were bad in XI?

Glad I'm not part of that "13 other people", whew!

I dodged a close one there guys!

Someone tell me how they plan on making gear rare, seriously. Lol

I'm pretty sure I've mentioned a bunch, but its just response like "NO NO NO 21-24hr" only 8hrs-12hrs..

WIFF HARDER CHALLAGENEDNS?!!! DUH COME ON.

I don't see what you mean by 'broken' for the relic system but I thought you wanted rare gears that can separate you from casuals, I don't have stats but I think that relic weapons were rarer than Dring

Relic weapons were in no way rarer than D ring.

And getting a relic weapon was ALL GIL. Killing the animated weapon and Dynamis lord was a joke. Some people has TWO relics. So it was just getting the 150~200 mil and buying coins.

I also think the upgrading system is nice but the salvage one was a bit 'too easy': Instanced drop from 3 things + decent amount of money for a piece does not seem to lead to such a rare gear as you want to have. More demanding items (lot more of same item, some very rare items (crafted? so you also have to gather the craft mats), reward from a very difficult fight) for an upgrade and different upgrade stages. Whatever involves being playing in the process is not a problem for casuals (hopefully).

Salvage was in no way easy. I gave you a simple version, it was more involved actually even getting to what dropped what you needed and killing it + the low drop rate. It took a LOT of money to get the body pieces which led to a whole RMT market on getting the khorma ores needed. And when it was 1st released it was so hard it was almost impossible.

But I agree with you on the crafting part a lot! With the crafting system in this game there are a lot of things possible.

You should avoid this comments really, does make any good to yourself or your reputation (and by snowball effect, your LS). You have no clue about people's skills in FFXI and a lot of us plays FFXIV AND were good at FFXI.

Well it's pretty obvious some people did not play when they go off screaming that if it popped every 24 hours it would be in the same time forever. If you don't know how any of that worked then I find it very hard to believe they even made to this content and have absolutely no experience with it.

Would inexperienced be a better word for you?

[DurtiMonkeyToe]

This is how it ends up eeh?

I thought this was how it began?

Yeah forreal, like that other dude. "ITS ALWAYS BETWEEN 6am-12AM!!!!111oneone!!"

Check your quotes please, I'm not the one who said it. By the way 13 > 3. Lawyered.

Fair enough but then that should be rare enough to please hardcore gamers as gathering the gils can be time consuming. The principle should work and please everyone.

Salvage was in no way easy. I gave you a simple version, it was more involved actually even getting to what dropped what you needed and killing it + the low drop rate. It took a LOT of money to get the body pieces which led to a whole RMT market on getting the khorma ores needed. And when it was 1st released it was so hard it was almost impossible.

That's why I used the ' '. It seems like exactly the kind of thing that, again, would please everyone. I was trying to think of really something that would take years even for hardcore gamers to do it (if they want to buy from RMTs, that's another issue but even then, they have the rare items so they get what they want: Special gears that casual won't get in a month).
I still think the principle would work, can be tweaked to any level of 'difficulty'/time sink as far as one plays during the process!
Actually, we should lock this thread because obviously, this is going nowhere and start a new one with a new system on how to have rare gears while actively playing the game.
