Requesting +1 weapons when you yourself don't even have a relic

[Cichy]

I just lvled a mule character to 50 and I gotta say it's crazy how bad XIV community is for new comers. Just getting Darklight is an experience that would drive me to quit the game unless I'd have my original character with all 50s. You need to do so many runs and people will shout with crazy requirements for WP and AK runs. I have a relic on my mule but have not gotten much darklight yet so when I join a party more often than not I get examined and kicked right away. SE really needs to take a look at the early endgame and fix it.

why did you get a relic on a mule?

You put a lot of effort into making everything easier, then complain that the game has no challenge and that you're bored. That's the pro way to play MMORPGs nowadays.

While good gear correlates to skill poorly, poor gear correlates to skill even worse. One way to think about it is that whoever you get is probably not going to be very good, but a bad player with relic+1 is still a better player than a bad player without relic+1. Unless you're so good that you don't care who you run with, it's not necessarily a bad idea to enforce gear constrains. Of course, a lot of time you're just wasting your time, especially if all you're doing is WP, but each person have their own tolerance of how much risk veruss how much time they're willing to spend to put together a group.

Seriously...what's the world coming to when People in Mor Dhona are shouting for members for WP and are requesting +1s to join when the person shouting does not even have a relic themselves? This is for non speed runs even...

That's kinda sinister IMO. Yeah, people inspect people - so I hope you have at least what your requesting, otherwise I'd hope someone either called you out or people just refuse to join you if your doing this.

It's WP anyways...stop putting restrictions on people unless their in gear lower than their quest class gear...ESP if your wearing it.

My personal favorite is when they tell you that you can't do WP or AK at all without a Relic.
