Seriously 3-5 minute repop on NMs?

ok, let's say overpriced.
perhaps it's a good combi craft piece, but the stats surely don't make it's price fair.
using a velveteen gown or linen coatee gives you the same results.
atleast i haven't had any big differences in crafting using either of those 3 bodys.

its not overpriced when people are willing to pay for it,
its worth whatever people are willing to pay.

Velveteen gown doesn't favor Blacksmiths or Armorers, and linen coatee is just mg craft . And it is only overpriced because SE failed to add Velveteen and Linen Doublets. if there were a linen doublet, it would have 25craft and 8mg craft, as opposed to dodore doublets 26craft and 9mg craft. They do need to increase the stats of NM dropped and unique equipment before they add the things they forgot.

I was hoping fore more high rank items that they forgot to add to be added. maybe next time...

Stop crying. I wouldnt mind they respawn a little slower but the way NMs worked in FFXI would not work for this game. Spending hours upon hours to get a good reward like in FFXI is not for everyone. I actually didnt mind it, but it is not for everyone. And this game is for a wider audience. Accessibility FTW.

I think many of you are expecting too much from the word "notorious". Just because something is called "notorious" doesn't mean it's super difficult or rare.

Notorious: "Famous or well known, typically for some bad quality or deed."

To be honest, for low level NMs, I don't log on to wait 3 hours only to find I'm competing with 20 other people that also want the same items only to find that I don't win the claim and I have to wait for the monster to spawn in another 3 hours. The short respawn is perfect. I was NOT pleased with FFXI's super long wait times when it came to NM spawn timers.

...Especially when I'm only going to be using the armor for a few ranks/levels.

I highly doubt the best gear in the game is going to be crafted/dyeable. Just sayin...

I doubt that too, and it's stupid.

[Corrderio]

They're notorious for a reason.


Notorious for respawning and wiping your party while doing loot that is!

Nah, they're notorious for not dropping the good stuff.

[Reika]

It's stupid for people that refuse to craft maybe... Right now the best gear in the game (besides mage gear) is crafted. Aeolian Scimitar, Vintage Haub, Vintage Kite shield, etc. I hope it stays that way.

And leaping lizzy wasn't for lower players? What are you even talking about? This is completely stupid.

LL was a freakin ditch.... 1-3 hour repop rate my butt more like 5+ hour repop rate. and 1% drop rate.... it took ppl years to even get that drop if they was unlucky. took me 5 years and imo those didn't impress me,

[Kilta_Firelotus]

I think the best thing they could do is just try harder to make this feel like a final fantasy game.

what you mean?

[Reddrag]

OMG!!!! Look at me!!! I'm here to whine about NM repop times... I mean seriously you people cry and cry about casual vs. hardcore... don't you see when you whine about something that casual players want, SE will see it, then you whine about hardcore players want, SE will see it too.

Really, quit bitching and understand, you're not the only person they are trying to make happy... It sucks, we know they shouldn't try to focus on everyone and pick only one, but don't you already see how it is, thats not how it works. So the best thing we can do is see that they did that with the repop times and hope they do something else.
