You know what would be awesome? Hard mode servers!

  • You don't get tele and mount until 30 or something like that and they're locked behind a difficult quest
  • tele's use anima like in 1.0 instead of gil
  • certain areas of the maps are filled with dangerous mobs
  • all world mobs in general are much tougher but also give higher exp giving people the option to grind old school style.
  • you have to run to a dungeon to enter it
  • NO DUTY FINDER
  • And other similar difficulty increases.

I'm sure many people would happily move to a server like this and it would let different types of players get what they want.

Feel free to post anything you would like to see on a hard mode server, I'm interested to hear what kind of difficulty increases people would enjoy.
