No it wasn't.

Just like now it was the same few people whining over and over at every attempt they got. That's part of the reason they had to introduce posting limits to the forums.

Has anyone tried this out? It's a strategy I've thought of a few times since it eliminates tank swaps and means that you no longer have each tank having to deal with the King and an increasingly buffed tank moogle, but I don't really -do- Mog EX much so...

It has been done with success quite a few times.

Here's a video so you can see for your own:

I don't recall them saying that. They said they are making a new game and doing what they can to make 1.xx viable till such new game came out. Your fault for misinterpreting any information or statements, not theirs.

Was playing some FFXI today with the free week went into Outer Ra'Kazanar (open world dungeon). This the kind of dungeon design people want?

map


Anyway its pretty confusing lots of wrong ways to go you pretty much have to use a wiki map to get through it and do the mission that is here. It seems like this kind of stuff is more what you find in FFXI. Also has so many high level mobs you can aggro stuff so you have to keep sneak and invis up if you are just here for the mission. Elevators everywhere and switches, 1 way drops ect. In this place you must get 3 sacles to finish the mission.

It's only "confusing" if your used to FFXIV straight line dungeons and can't afk to make a sandwich.

I want them to release the option to change Jobs/classes in a dungeon like it was in 1.0.
It was to be a blm aoe sets of mobs then swap to mnk and dps bosses down.

I'd rather not see this type of dungeon setup released.

The biggest problem with that would be people would feel forced to level up and play jobs they don't want to play in order to get into groups for these dungeons. It doesn't seem like a big deal to those of us who enjoy playing all 3 roles, but there are people who genuinely loathe playing any other job than "X".

The devs wouldn't be forcing the players to level multiple jobs by implementing this type of content, the community would be doing it.

This of course won't always be the case, as generally it's assumed FCs and LSs are friendly enough to help and accommodate and whatnot; but that guy who only has DRG leveled would get left out of/refused by many groups because he refuses to tank and heal. Then gear discrepancies between players and gear could further cause debate and drama within groups.
