Highly Notorious Monsters

[ThePatriarch]

That's the point of a claim system someones gotta lose and waste time. Not everyone gets a cookie. If you can't handle you could always craft enough money to buy it.

P.S Video games are a waste of time.

P.P.S Claim system is over a decade old in ffxi, it can be improve dramatically.

Absolutely, no argument there. Well, aside from video games being a waste of time, lol. Perspective, my friend!

The claim system from XI is old, out-dated, and in desperate need of overhaul. I would love to see a different system in XIV if they did indeed provide us with a little bit of open world content. Maybe Initial party claims, and they can obtain the main drop. But lets say outside parties could fight and assist and get sub-tier drops (low drop rate ofc). Or who knows, there are 100 different ways to allow a claiming system that allows outside help, drops to more than the initial claim PT, etc etc.

Say main PT has "need" option, when outside help could only greed? I'm just throwing out random ideas. But alas, if we had forced pop NMs, (i.e. trigger popped) there wouldn't be an issue with outside claim, because you are popping your own monsters that you worked/farmed hard for.

Yada yada, there are so many alternatives that could be used as compared to the methods used in XI for open world spawns. They just need to be discussed! Who knows, open world NM's may be brought to the game, they may not be. But judging by the developers responses in my prior thread, we can atleast tell that they were interested in what we had to say. Why not give them ideas, suggested by the community for content that we would like to see brought into the game under certain circumstances. XI laid some great groundwork down, and can easily be built upon and bring boatloads of awesome content to XIV. XIV has a promising future to it, I just like to know that we as a playerbase threw as many ideas out there in hope of more content for our enjoyment.
