Someone else's outfit given to you for helping them.

Except that was a main part of that game, they said specifically for this one that if there was a storyline reason for it or it's look, it would -never- be dyeable. This is now being broken every patch.

Patch 2.meh

With the change in Spirit Bonding, it looks like I am just taking gear off so that I do not rip hate off of lower level tanks... if they are penalizing me for making it so that I do no tank as a BLM, then I will be less likely to use the DF for anything that I am not of level for... I know I am ranting, and that a lot of people abused the system really bad... but I think this is just going to cause issues with other things and people go other places to SB, or with people just striping down for the fun of it now.

True, but we must remember that FFXIV is SE's game and if they see that a rule is more profitable when overturned, they are most likely going to change it. Dye-able armor sets are becoming a big part of this game now too.

I personally don't mind it. It's not like I'm forced to dye everything. I have the freedom of choosing the original look or a custom look. Any game that offers more options is better than a game with fewer.

And by appealing to ffxi you are using the same logic as "I only want white mages to be able to teleport to Aetherytes because that's how it was in ffxi"

Your off by 15-25 minutes here, no ferry ride was 40 minutes long between these destinations, and you could fish or fight mobs on the ride too.

None of these ferry rides between selbina and mhaura were over 30 minutes tops, and the 30 minutes was if you "just" missed the ferry that left when you showed up.

If you got there when ferry was at dock the ride was 15 minutes firm.

I'm pretty sure Atmas, Animus, and Novus took care of them already. <_<;;

A catboy? Thinking it's the LALAS that everyone are going to be pet? Poor, naive boy, the things that lie in store for you... *Cackles and rubs her hands together gleefully*

Except that anyone that kills one is going to lose any interest in killing it again for the rest of the week, and probably for several weeks afterwards. And, since people are assigned different targets, only a small fraction of the server will be hunting the same mob as you, and even less of them will be hunting at the same time as you. No, weekly hunts will definitely be much easier, now.
