A simple request for the Golden Saucer

[Raidou]

I find the fact that OP didn't mention Ring of Annoyance to be funny.

I forgot to list that. xD I also forgot to list the flame arrow from Bard, Black Mage Ice spells, SCH Bubble, etc. (I know it has DRG listed as my main, but I actually main BLM. DRG is my next job. I just don't like how THM is displayed under main class in the forums.) xD

This is actually a very good idea. I support it wholeheartedly.
It would even make perfect sense to have some sort of magical doodad or gentlemen's agreement that prevents violence in an area focused on games.
Though it IS run by the Mandervilles...

Skill spamming turned out to be more annoying than jumping ever was.
If there's no practical point to changing jobs in the saucer, you have my vote.

I can imagine them putting in crafting dailies...
Personally while locking abilities would be done, changing jobs is likely not going to be blocked since it's such an integral function and tied to equipment changing. The only places that currently block it are instances.

to prevent job switches.
.

Disagree on that part.
IMO gold saucer is side activitie to do while waiting and I don' want to be forced to zone out if I need to change job to join some group

The Golden Saucer looks awesome, I know many of you are just as excited for it as I am. While it looks amazing all around, I think the music and atmosphere are key. With this in mind, I'd like to request the developers lock all job abilities once you enter the Golden Saucer. I also think it would be worthwhile to prevent job switches. I'm sure some of you are asking, why? The last thing I want is to have my fun interrupted by someone spamming holy, tons of people casting shadowflare, or putting down other abilities all over the place. It's also just as annoying when a bunch of people spam change gearsets. I don't see any need in switching jobs or using skills inside the Golden Saucer to begin with. I think these distractions take away from the experience of it. Please consider doing this, thanks.

You know you can turn off others effects, right? They can spam holy and other skills all they like, not gonna bother me none

Agree on the skills, or at the least maybe make it so while in the saucer we can't see the effects even if people do use them or something (outside a potential battle arena anyways), but Yeah, I dissagree with no job switching, because FASHION.

You dress up before you go out right?
Just make a separate night dress gear swap to change into before you go to the saucer.

I see the reasoning for your suggestion, I would instead suggest that there be a toggle option to remove these visual/audio effects when in a sanctuary, as the Gold Saucer would no doubt be. Locking jobs wouldn't do much good as people could very easily enter Gold Saucer as a job that spams abilities.

I don't have any qualms about this, I only wonder if locking abilities and gear sets will hinder their plans in any way.


I know (in the past) they flirted with the idea of an arena type mini-game like the one in the battle section of FFVII. They can probably do it if they are in complete different sections that are separated by zones, but then you'll have the people who complain that you have to switch zones to join the battle arena section -_-


Just FYI, they confirmed nothing about this battle arena, only mentioned it awhile back that it could be a possibility. I would love a battle arena in the Gold Saucer
