Sightseeing...

[Warlyx]

It will first tell you "You have arrived at a vista" if you find the exact tiny little spot you need to be in, then you have to use a specific emote at a specific time/weather to get the completion.

and thats how u make a funny thing like exploration wrong, but thats SE for u

Just another pathetic attempt to try and re-populate the open world rather than everyone sitting in rev toll 24/7 in between queues.

Seriously, please SE change this.
I was so excited to do jumping puzzles like in GW2. Jump jump jump, click a floating thing, check out a sweet view!

Seriously, I hate it already, its stupid. MUST be a time and weather for you to do it, AND ONTOP of that you have to use an emote,.... Rubbish. NAH i'm out.

Please change this, just make it fun like GW2 did.
It's a shame because I love everything else in the game, the one thing I disagree with!
I didn't even mind farming the atma :P

Please change it.

Thanks

this is how i spent about 9 hours of my day today




seriously, this is stupid. that spot isn't a "view"

I am quite amused that SE would consider that spot worthy of a sightseeing entry. A wall? Seriously? a f--king wall?!
...There are no words SE, no words what so ever.

I remember Yoshi-P mentioning that the first 20 would be "easy" and the last 60 would really be the ones to test your sightseeing mettle. lol. Just....lol.

;_;

It's not the wall that you should see, but the leatherworkers guild from above.

My sarcasm is lost to you.

Everyone's crying and complaining because you can't do it all in one day and grind out a minion for your "efforts". If all you care about is finding the spot, then just find the spot and move on, if you want the reward, then you wait for the correct time and weather. The whole point is reliving the moment of the person who wrote down their story of what happened at that spot. You're supposed to take their place and see the sight how they saw it.

Everyone's complaining because they can't just do it all in one sitting and then complain because it's so easy it's so short.

I agree some of these requirements are tedious and annoying. I feel that I must make a statement, this is player made content that they just made official and gave a reward to it. These are locations various players found on their own since release, and do it every time Revenant Toll changes. So blame players for finding the locations, because these locations were taken and collected by players screen shots from these ridiculous places. Now to the real problem... I don't agree with the time of day and weather requirements, maybe 1 or the other.... and as someone said make it a HQ achievement for getting the full requirements.

[Caillum]

I really don't mind it....Yeah, it's a bit underwhelming, but they said say the first 20 were just kind of a tutorial. Hopefully the higher ones take us to more interesting locations. Although, it would be nice if you got some type of reward or something along those lines for finding them, but maybe there will be adjustments to later ones. It's a decent base for something that they can easily make better in the future. Also, in 2.3 there will be the weather NPCs, and that will probably make this a lot less stressful for most people.

The thing that you have to remember is the weather has a chance to change at 12am, 8am, and 4pm Eorzean time. So simply check the zone you need at those times and if it isn't the right weather, just simply leave and come back later. Also, if the weather changes at 12am to say...rainy, but the time you need isn't til 12pm, don't wait around. There is a good chance the weather will change at 8am and you'd just be wasting your time. What I've been doing is farming FATEs in the zones I need and/or gathering. It makes it a lot less bothersome for me. This isn't content that needs to be rushed through.
