Open World Content.

Are you forgetting they just added hunt NMs? Which is open world content that some FFXI players been asking for.

Hunts are not what people wanted, unless I'm totally reading every single complaint on them wrong.

Well, it sort of is. People wanted open world content, and well, this fits. People also wanted meaningful rewards from it, ie sands/oil in this case. They however didn't realize what would happen by asking for that. One of the fixes some have suggested is to make them like maps, ie force popped. That's not open world content. It just happens to be in the open world, the content itself is not open.

You had open world NMs, which some people asked for. Put some of the best top tier gear on it in the form of oils and sands. Then are surprised when the whole server is hunting these down because they offer some of the best rewards in the game. You asked for open world content with good rewards and should expect a high level of competition on hunting them.

Pretty sure that the people and I asked for NOTORIOUS monsters and not just push overs. Lets take a look at 1.0 for a second and its great buffalo. Not only did you have to gather a team for it but it also utilized crafters to make the best gear, unlike this game where crafters are no more than vanity. They actually help the good fight, but oh well

they brought back NM's but they are nothing more than glorified unlabled fates, they arent the same in 1.0 were u had to actually use strategy to win. everyone can attack them an get credit for rewards so they jsut spam fests like fates

They need to bring back claimed monsters.

They need to bring back claimed monsters.

It will just cause the same problems unless the rewards aren't top end.

Yeah GREAT IDEA!!!! People already get abused for pulling early if this came in the already toxic part of hunts would be amplified 1000%

What's wrong with some claimed monsters, I see no problem with it. What's wrong with competition, either way there are bots on the game now that are making it unfair for other players, so should they just resort to botting? No, only losers do that. Some of the best moments I've had with FFXi is fighting over an NM or over claiming some people trying to take over our camp. I love competition in the pve realm and not just the pvp area. I mean it's not all roses and butterflies out there, i guess it should be, because the world itself doesn't appose any real threat outside of players verbally abusing one another. There are many cool ideas that they could do.

Leve system is a fantastic area to bring in awesome hard NMs

PoP monsters that only claim to you.

Open world NMs first come first serve.

What's wrong with this game is that they SHOW you everything and hold your hand through everything. The reason why every area gets spammed by people when an event happens is because A. It tells you HEY COME HERE TO SPAM AOE. B. Teleporting everywhere makes actual traveling non existent. What's the point in airships again?
