Beastman Coins

[Dyne]

I would love to use them for crafting, like turn them into silver ingots or something.

Wow, that sucks for the people who have been collecting them (me included). I've also been collecting aldgoat hides and hyena hides, and other useless items for the day when they'll finally be useful.

I wouldn't consider it a "slap in the face", however. I completely understand the risks involved. It's a calculation everyone has to weigh for themselves. Too bad if the gamble doesn't pay off.

Anyway, like a lot of other things in this game, just chalk it up to bad design. I mean really, why even bother putting certain items in the game database at all if they're not going to have any useful function? It makes it look like the game is unfinished.

Oh wait....

Well then....that sucks but lets use this as a excuse to suggest to SE what we would like for them to be used for in the future.

I personally would like them to be used for things regarding the beastmen tribes. I don't care what really. I found it very annoying that coins in FFXI served little more purpose but to be a alternate way to make certain ingots(sure they had a few other uses here and there but not much)

The idea of trading with beastmen for exclusive armor and weapons you can only get through them is great. Perhaps have it so you can trade them for gil or trade them for shards, crystals or Clusters. I mean there are plenty of things they could be used for if they are actually used as a currency among the beastmen.

This is however something SE really needs to look at. The fact that there are so many items in the game that serve no purpose is quite stupid. They should either quickly start looking into things to be done with these items or remove them for the game as they serve no real purpose other then clogging up inventory space and being annoying.

Lol, what else is there to say?

Thanks SE for another terrible non decision. You guys really know how to suck the life out of things!

[Coombah]

why put them end the game if they serve no purpose ? give them a purpose!

I'm actually mad at the devs. Why is there wasted programming on this, why are they in the game. Tanaka had to of least had a plan for this. I though we were supposed to have trade relations with beastmen eventually. Guess that's out the window. I was hoping deep down inside for bcnm, but that was just a dream. I thought realistically the trade relation. I'm actually kind of mad about this. Since I just spent hours camping kokoroon for his body piece for my friends, and out of 15 spawns we got 2 bodypieces and ass loads of those dies and coin.

Mad about what? The games still in beta yo!

Oh and out of 7 kills in a row of Kokoroon, we got 5 bodies... we ended up just giving them out to other campers, as my Bow refused to show up. Then it showed up, and the people rejoiced.

We got 5 bows, it "seemed" like everytime we incapacitated him with concussive blow he was for sure going to drop the bow. But it was late, so don't take my word as fact. Maybe we're just unlucky on what we really want :/ I dont even have an archer and I have that bow now :/

I doubt that is the case. It's Tanaka's fault these things are in the game in the first place, and considering the unfinished state of the game at retail release, if there was a "plan" I doubt it would have been anything more than "we'll fix it later", as was the philosophy they applied to every other aspect in the game.
