    Randomize leves

    With the upcoming guildleve adjustments, S-E has the opportunity to take this monotonous system and tweak it so that it is more engaging than it is now.

    One of things I thought of that could improve the system is to randomize the monsters that appear, specifically within the Necrologos leves. If the leve drew from a pool of monsters, instead of just using the same monster every time, it would provide a bit of variety and maybe be just the spice FFXIV needs to make guildleves feel not quite so routine.

    I mention Necrologos because those are usually written as "Defeat the monsters summoned from the Necrologos page!" and other similar sentiments that use the phrase "monster," instead of being written into the lore of the leve. (i.e. Kill all the peistes! They're terrorizing the Lalafells!) Seems like it would be an easier addition than re-writing all of the flavor text on all of the leves.

    What say you, fellow FF fans?

    I like the idea. It may be the same (and SE may even change/add some leves), and it will be better.

    Is not gonna affect anything, but I prefer to see something different than "Destroy monsters "and something else"""

    Well you don't need this considering you shouldn't be doing the same leve over and over again, this would of been good when were all leve failing though it seems they are planning to change that so we don't do that anymore.

    This is a good idea, and I don't see it being too hard to implement

    Nice idea. I say go a step further. Have the monster pool include rare NM spawns.
    Leves would be a little more exciting if once in a while you got thrown a curveball with a chance of a nice reward.

    For example, maybe in the levequest "Bombs Away" there could be a small chance for Bomb King to spawn, and he might drop a rare/ex HP ring. And in a necrologos leve you may never know what kind of NM might show up.
