Say NO to the New Possession (Claiming) Structure Being Developed!!!

[MizoreShirayuki]

New possession (claiming) structure.

Famitsu: Please tell us about later adjustments to monster claim (possession) structure.

Matsui: We’re making adjustments so we can drop the claiming system. This means others not in party can attack the same monster and RMT like players can try to take over so making it the party with the first attacker can only get the loot. For contents with alliance we’re thinking of a system where the loot is evenly distributed or changing amount of loot depending on amount of damage given.

Yoshida: I think it’s good where other players can help and with later alliance battle where few parties get together we really think we don’t need the claiming system. Contents that drop rare items will be more instance based in future, and will also lessen where you have to fight over to claim.

MeowyWowie & Co. have all stated valid points in another thread located here...

The resounding theme of posters in that thread seems to be that a system of this nature is NOT wanted.

Say NO to this system currently in development before it's too late!

i say yes, i prefer "Contents that drop rare items will be more instance based in future, and will also lessen where you have to fight over to claim."

really i love do instance raid that claim hnm, is more fun and challenge complete dungeon with limit time that wait for hours for hnms that ls with many bots always win the claim

No +1.....

[Chocobits]

As much as I dislike the proposed changes.. I played FFXI for years and botting sucked. Anything that will reduce the reward for botting is OK in my book. Sense of accomplishment {Yes please.}

Seriously? Are you looking for a WoW clone? I don't mean to bash you I really don't. But I know Rift is looking for players. Open world is what makes FF what it is. Grabbing the HNM before anyone else is half the fun!

So if we get rid of claims what's the point of parties. Maybe i wanna go farm and not share loot. Just give us a *** Lotting system. Some type of item distribution for the party, like 11 had. If you want people to be able to help, add the /help function just like in 11. And as far as instancing everything, I think that will make the world/community feel much smaller. I think there should be an even balance between Instanced content and Free world content, whether that's HNM or Campaign type stuff.

The claiming system does need reworked so that you gain SP for killing "unclaimed" mobs, but this is not the way to go. I feel like this is a horrible direction for our game to be heading.

Fix some real *** problems before you contemplate doing dumb *** like this.

/sea all lfp ........ WHERE THE *** IS THIS... the current tool is unused and sucks.

GREEN EXCLAMATION POINTS ARE NEEDED

I don't see what's wrong with getting outside help. If it makes the next NM pop sooner, why not? You still have to fight for the initial claim.

If it means that we can get FULL SP from mobs that get hit from AOE i'm all for this system!

Open world NMs are on fast respawn timers if you lose claim it's up again shortly there after.

Instances doesn't necessarily mean "In it's own location" Guildleves have instanced mobs, maybe we'll have "NM hunt" type systems where the mobs are only attackable by the PT on that hunt and only then becomes visible to the public.

I'm looking forward to a new system

This, and the help button in 11 was just kinda laughable >.< Not to mention current claims and sp/xp rewards get messed up from typical claiming, open system is a great fix xD
